Just to give a little history before I comment on Muscle retention.
I was diagnosed with diabetes 3.5 yrs ago and wrongly given a type 2 diagnosis. As such the only way I could lower my bs numbers was by diet and a lot of exercise as the prescribed metformin did nothing. For over year I didnt lose much weight but did a hell of a lot of exercise mostly aerobic and got good BS numbers which didnt help as the Docs then thought it was the Metformin working. After over a year a nurse noticed that I just didnt look like a typical type 2 and sent for more tests and low and behold I was a type 1 and put straight on Insulin. Educating myself on this a decided to try and work to minimise insulin usage and wrongly over cut my carbs and spent most of the last coulple of years in a massive calorific deficit and put my body into starve mode.
(Diabetes type 2 = Your body is insulin resistant Diabetes Type 1 = Your body doesnt produce insulin)
To answer your question I have maintained a lot of my muscle and strength which has to be down to the Nebido. If it hadnt have been for the nebido I am sure I would have a typical skinny/fat composition now. I do find the water retention slightly frustrating and the surge at week 2 post injection makes me moody but other than that NEBIDO ROCKS.
Incidently the Test E and Winny temptation is to see if I can harden a little.
