Lean bulk cycle advice

[balance]

Just wondering isn’t it easier to “lean” bulk (sorry I know it’s an abused term but bulk with minimal fat gain) with a higher androgen load which usually means higher levels of dht?

well you could lean bulk quite nicely on a 1000mg deca only cycle if you wanted (and deca is an anti-androgen when ran alone and DHT levels will fall off).

it depends on a lot of different variables.. lean bulking on a high androgen load cycle will keep you leaner (because high androgen load generally increases your TDEE) , but then you just have to eat more cals for the bulking aspect of your 'lean bulk' (kinda why thats a contradiction in terms) .

the higher androgen load bulk will however provide you with more immediate 'cosmetic' effects . a drier look, more definition, with muscle fullness (if your in cal surplus). BUT you may not necessarily be adding on as much long term quality muscle tissue as you would if you bulked with more anabolic and 'wet' based AAS.. (note -- DHT is NOT anabolic in muscle tissue)

the most ideal is to have a good combo of both androgen and anabolic load, enough estrogen as well , and/or run that in different phases over the duration of your bulk.. with added growth factors. get both the cosmetic effects and the solid muscle tissue gains
