    *Did you mean to say "expect to maintain close to your starting *MUSCLE* weight" there?

    Also ~ If you're recommending that I limit my calorie deficit to 500cal/day...you're recommending that I don't attempt to lose more than 1lb per week. I thought with gear I'd be able to cut more drastically than that while not losing muscle? Sounds like you don't think that's the case?

    ...I'll continue to ask about adding a cutting supplement, like anavar, to the regimen. Obviously, what I'm doing isn't commonplace as a first cycle.

    ...Everyone's got their own preference. Being a shorter guy, I prefer a slimmer, more athletic, more natural look to a bigger, bulkier one. That's just me, though.

    The goal of a cutting cycle is to keep the muscle you have while shedding fat. It is possible to make some gains while cutting but it should not be expected, so yes expect to keep your starting muscle and weight. The success of any cycle will depend on your diet. Cutting was always tricky for me because it has to be more precise, at least it does for me. With cutting you still need to make sure you are getting the proper intake of protein, carbs and fats. If your deficit is too high you run the risk of losing muscle mass, even with gear. But again that is me, I am more prone to muscle loss on a calorie deficit, which is why I don't go higher than 500 calories.

    Expect to keep my starting weight?? What?

    What would be the point of doing anything, then?
