Next Cycle

[Cylon357]

Let's go over your stats here.

You're 36 years old
5'7 204lbs
18% fat

I don't know how you're measuring your bodyfat or if it's even correct. But your lean weight is 167.28lbs And if you dropped 16lbs of fat you'd be right around the 10% mark.

What I would recommend is getting your bloodwork done to make sure you don't have diabetes or low test. If you have either (or both), treating those would by itself help your bodyfat problem. But at the end of the day, you need to be in a caloric deficit to lose weight that that's whether you're on or off steroids. That means no more McDonald's for lunch, cut back on the potato chips. Drink water instead of soda.

If OP is 5'7", 204lbs and 18% body fat, then he looks like young Franco in the off season or young Ed Coan on the daily - neither of which is too shabby for off cycle.

I wonder where that bodyfat measurement is coming from, too...

Yeah, it's been my observation on here that very few people asking for advice ever had an accurate measurement of their bodyfat done. Most of them guesstimate it to be way lower than it actually is. I wouldn't doubt they have bathroom scales like I have that measure your BF when you step on it. And those are about as inaccurate as they get. Hell, you'll get a different result from them if you measure it before and after you take a shower.
