Protein intake while on cycle?

[Badluck33]

When not cycling I normally do a 1:1.25 lb:g of Protein.

Does this go up when cycling?

Should creatine still be in diet as well?

thoughts? Opinions??

You want to get bigger I assume right? IF yes, then yes increase protein to 1.5-2grams per body weight.

I was wondering the same thing as well. Also, during my reading here no one has mentioned how many calories above maintanence someone should eat while on aas. This will be my first cycle doing the standard 500 mg of test e along with hcg and the normal pct route

it's been mentioned a lot on here, you simply haven't read it. and it depends on your goals. are you bulking or cutting? cutting, of course, would require a deficit.

so, depending on your goals, typically it's in the range of 300-500 if you're bulking. then you need to re-evaluate and adjust your tdee after your cycle and new muscle tissue has formed.

thanks bud! most likely will start out with 300 and then monitor and adjust as needed
