Regardless of whether you are on gear or not, diet and exercise will dictate how much fat you gain/lose. I would definitely not expect to start taking test and have your fat just melt off of you. You are doing the right thing by waiting to cut down before beginning the cycle. I will say that personally I tend to gain less fat while eating a high amount of calories on test. If you look at the science behind it, higher levels of testosterone will increase protein synthesis and have a beneficial nutrient partitioning effect. In other words the calories you consume will be used more efficiently towards muscle building and glycogen storage, rather than fat storage. Do not think of this as a magical ability to eat whatever you want and not get fat though. If you eat shit, you will look like shit.Originally Posted by Ca$tro
If you are disciplined with your diet, the weight will come off faster than you might think. Since you are at a relatively high bf, the pounds should come off quickly to start, and I would not be surprised if you were able to lose 2 pounds per week to start. Someone else may have a better estimate than this as I am not the expert on fat loss some of these guys are. However, the amount of time it takes you will depend almost entirely on your dedication to the proposed diet and your cardio schedule. Getting down to 15% should not be too hard for you. It is when you try to get down to 10%, as GBrice can testify to, that you really need to start working your ass off.
