Your test level will be stable throughout this whole time making this a lot easier well a say that, i mean a better aid for you. Remember we a all different prox what works for you will/could not work for me.

The op could have very low T and does not know it, and you compare yourself to it. You can not do this full stop. Evey single person has to work out there TDEE and either add to it for size, eat there TDEE to maintain, or less to cut, simple as that.
This goes for on cycle or not.
Thanks for responding Clarky.

1. How/why are cycle gains different for those already on TRT and those purely doing cycle & PCT?

2. I just thought as Austenite's first cycle seems to be the go-to/gold-standard beginner's cycle & there might be less guess work in results, but I fully appreciate/understand variation from person to person.

3. Understand the basics about eating under TDEE to cut & eat more to add size - really do. But, it's this "size" word that has me somewhat confused. I am not a "big" guy - I am tall and lanky. Guys like me, don't do well with any size except muscle. Even 1-2 pounds of fat, looks bad, where on "bigger" guys, it works just fine. I AM GOING TO REPEAT A QUESTION FROM MY LAST POST WITH NACH, SORRY, I UNDERSTAND IT IS A REPEAT. IT SEEMS INEFFICIENT TO PUT ON FAT IF YOU DON'T HAVE TO, BUT HOW MUCH FAT DO YOU HAVE TO PUT ON TO GAIN MUSCLE - IS THERE AN ANSWER FOR THIS?

TO EVERYONE OUT THERE, I APOLOGIZE FOR SUCH A BASIC AND PERHAPS STUPID QUESTION. I BUST MY ASS WITH MY DIET AND TRAINING AND EXPECT TO BE CYCLING TO PERHAPS MY DYING DAY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING. MR. SMALL, HOPEFULLY MY QUESTIONS PARALLEL YOURS SO I HAVE NOT HIJACKED YOUR THREAD.
