14 weeks – test cyp 500mg a week
12 weeks – deca 250mg a week ( was running 400 but was running me up mentally so dropped the dose )

Getting some decent size but I’m getting way to big in the mid section.

I want to drop this weight and at least stop seeing some leanbess there while maintaining weight .

Any suggestions.. I’m open to all and any.

Where’s GH? For me personally, 500 mg. of test gained me minimal muscle & a crap load of fat (and water).

Drop some calories, not a lot, load up on water, and bump up on the cardio, HIIT, or whatever you do for your conditioning (easy to say but harder to do).

Some people opt for stims or chemicals meant to speed up the metabolism, but I don’t, so I won’t comment on that strategy.

I know you monitor your bloods religiously, so I seriously doubt it is related to anything in that department.

If you’re planning on running the cycle longer, you could drop the Deca and go with tren or….and this is just me, lower the Deca to 150mg/week or so and add low dose tren(200mg/week). I never really have any problems running 2 19-nors when the doses are kept on the low side.

On the flip side you could throw the kitchen sink at it and run higher doses, but that’s not my approach, so again no comment on that.

Very helpful suggestions , thanks almost . Really appreciate it .
I am going to go with it and add in tren and lower calories and get on the cardio ( hate it ) but it is necessary.

Thanks bro

The bloat definitely doesn’t help

Damn bro , how is that not effecting your mood or Libdo ?

400 had me in a spiral of emotions that were not fun.

Right now I’m not on cycle and just running 125 mg/week test E + 500 iu of HCG . I lost about 8 lbs in 2 months of off and on dieting. The past two weeks I saw the most results… here is what I do: Everything is salad based (romaine lettuce to be exact). I rotate the meats. I’ll buy the dark_sidecken breast and make like 3-4 lbs at once. Chop it up and cook it. Add a bunch of dressing/sauce after it is halfway cooked and let it simmer. I eat it cold on top of the salad and it tastes great (no rubbery texture and weird flavor). Other days I do very lean ground beef with taco seasoning for flavor. The rest I use cans of tuna (usually at night). I eat this 3-4 times a day – the only meal I don’t eat it on is breakfast. I use no bread except one slice with my eggs and turkey bacon in the morning. 1 egg + 2 egg white equivalents (I get the carton egg whites), and 2 slices of turkey bacon/low sodium. The only extra carbs I eat are the toppings: Bambutons or wonton strips/ crispy onions. I don’t use low-fat dressing cause it tastes like shit. I get the regular kind. If you work out, 50 calories extra won’t kill you.

I haven’t lost strength or size, but I look more defined and have a better v-taper. Good luck with your diet!

^^^ Just to add to the post above about salad dressing, I do use salad dressing but dilute it to 50% water/ 50% salad dressing. It’s is still plenty flavorful and keeps the calories down. I do the same with BBQ sauce when I use it.
Also, a little beef or dark_sidecken broth added to your rice makes a huge difference with/ minimal calories. If I get a really strong craving for something sweet, it’s a little Splenda on my grits or rice. Occasionally, I will use the sugar free pancake syrup watered down.

Anything to zip up the flavor without pundark_sideng up the calories.

Everyone is different. Some people experience PRL related issue at moderate dosages and others can really crank it up there without too much problem.

Most guys love d’bol or drol, but those aren’t for me. T’bol and Anavar treat me well. I’m a good bit older now than the last time I incorporated winny, so I’m not sure how well I would tolerate it these days

I currently use no ai and sex drive sky high. Anyone who hasn’t tried low test cycles should. It’s been a monumental shift in my performance and eliminated side effects.

Deca had my mind in a fog , I wasn’t seeing things usually how I normally would.

Felt alone and sad. Its a alittle hard to explain but I didn’t feel right.

I dropped the deca to half the dose of test and about a week later I was feeling "normal"

Wasn’t overthinking anything
