Thread: Bulking than cutting during 14 week cycle?

Yes its very possible, Many times Ive lean bulked and cut down in the same cycle. As for you worrying about losing muscle while cutting, If your diet is in check, you will lose fat but retain LBM, If you do it right you will be in a good spot for your trip.

Edit: What is your cycle? What are you taking? Are you planing on incorporating a hardening agent? How many cycles have you done?

Well since I'll probably be around 17% bodyfat by week 10 (currently 15) I plan on cutting down for 6 weeks (including the 14 days after last injection before pct) to get down to around 9-11% bodyfat. & the reason why is because I'll be going to cancun @ the end of the summer & I want to look my absolute best.


Would this be ok? Would this attack my muscle gains?

Stats are 210 pounds 15% Bodyfat

CYCLE -
Weeks 1-10 - BULK
Weeks 11-14 - CUT
Weeks 1-14 - Test E @ 500Mg EW

PCT - 14 days after last injection
nolva - 40/40/20/20/10/10
clomid - 80/80/40/40/20/20

Here are some pictures i Took last night - as you could see im looking pretty dam thick & i'll definitely look thicker if i keep on bulking.. & my face.. its even worse. especially with the bloat n all =.=

If you were running an AI like Aromasin on cycle, you wouldn't have any bloat. You also may not see a need to cut in the same cycle, as an AI will keep you hard and vascular while getting rid of subcutaneous water.

I'm running 750mg of test and 50-60mg of d-bol ED with no bloat and I look lean and hard. I am running Aromasin at 12.5mg ED...

Just something to consider, especially because high estro levels can cause many more issues other than bloating. Have you had your E2 levels checked to see where you are at?

Also, your PCT needs some work. Try Clomid 100/75/50/50 and Aromasin 25/25/12.5/12.5 and drop the Nolva. The only use where I have found Nolva to be ideal is battling on-cycle gyno. It has a negative effect on IGF-1 levels, which you do not want during PCT.

^^^ the man speaks true

OldSchoolLifter and GMO have given some great advice, I'd follow it.

For me at least, I quit making serious gains around week 9 and from then on I leaned way out. This was just test though. I don't think you'll have a problem leaning out at the end of the cycle. However 5% is a LOT to lose.
