    Cycling with little body fat vs much body fat

    Is it easier for chubby people to get gyno?
    I guess aromatase happens much more in the people with a little extra flub, do to aromatase in the fat tissue?

    I think it's not black or white situation. Theoritically, test. is converted to estrone I think in the adipose tissue and since you've lots of it, it'll be much easier to get high levels of estrogen ending up with easier gyno...

    BUT, practically, I've seen many thin people getting gyno on cycles and many chuppy doesn't get it ( Including me Thank God ). So, it's more of a genetic predisposition than a rough response to circulating estrogen.

    I've ran cycle of test enanthat and dbol ( Both highly aromatizing ) without the use of any antiestrogen and to doses up to 1500 mg EW and never experienced gyno... Only with higher dose I got F**KIN ACNE!!

    Anyway, do what you've to do man!! Good luck!

    The increased chance of gyno would not be the primary reason I discourage chubby people to cycle. In my opinion, if someone is chubby or has a high body fat%, that is an indicator of a lack of the dedication to proper diet and training that should be present before a cycle is even considered.

    Remember fat has receptors just like lean tissue, and fat loves estro... (basic summery)

    And what BIG said is spot on imo!
