    will letro really hinder my gains

    Age: 21, BF: 10%, Height 6'0, Weight:185 pounds

    First cycle(hoping to run in the next 5 or 6months)

    Week 1-4 Dbol 30mg a day(wiil up to 40mg if no sides)
    Week 1-10 Test E 500mg EW

    Nolvadex for 4 weeks for my PCT

    i was going to run letro during my cycle (since I had gynio for almost a year when i was 16). if i ran it at 0.25mg per day will it really make a difference in my gains or just a pound or two less

    It depends letro is notorious for making estrogen almost nothing even at low doses. I would suggest arimidex to control the estrogen instead. Don`t forget you do need some estrogen.

    Letrozole will keep your water retention to a minimum, so I don't understand why you think it will limit your gains...If you count water and bloating as gains then I guess you'll prevent some.

    Letrozole has some unique properties in that it increase IGF production.

    This translates into MORE possible gains if you are eating, training and sleeping enough.

    .25mg/ED is fine for your light cycle...I generally run it @ 1.25mg E3D on heavier cycles for the duration (usually 12-16 weeks)

    oh no im not count bloat as gains its just alot of people say it will limit my gains cause it blocks the estrogen, so it really won't effect my gains (excluding the bloat)

    Some people experience bad side effects from letro. I personally wouldnt run something that strong unless I had side effects that gave me the need to do it. Letro will limit your gains, to what degree I have no idea.

    i think this is the first time we've agreed on a thread response

    if you letro is too high, ridiculous high, it will hurt your gains. at .25mg ed its great. letro has a bad reputation on the web due to some shitty studies, but take it from some experienced guys. letro is the best thing you can use long term.

    yes. some experience an estrogen spike when it is stopped, so its best to cut it the day you start your nolvadex

    Depending on how much you use. Take enough and it will, i've experienced it myself.

    Doesnt letro have sexual side effects at high doses? or is that just a myth?

    anything said bad about letro is true for arimidex and aromasin
    its just that letro is much stronger mg for mg
    so more people have overdosed it and completely crushed estrogen accidently

    Both one8nine and myself confirmed his initial thought about 0.25mg/ED for his needs. Personally I think he could do even less with his relatively light/short cycle.

    It's all above!
