don't create a calorie deficit... that will hurt your results.
cardio is part of my routine to stay lean i don't like it but i need it stay lean. i been on 1-AD for couple weeks gained some good weight i was wondering though if i had cardio in my routine would this hinder my gains. cut it back from 5 days a week 40 minutes a session to 3 times a week 30 minutes a session. My calories i increased from around 2300 to about 3000 cals 330 from protein 235 from carbs. i just basically want muscle gains with least amount of fat as possible. should i just cut cardio out completely cause the 1-AD will give me the good lean gains i am looking for? when i started i was 5'10 170 2 weeks in i am 5'10 178. if that helps at all.

you need to decide if you want to get lean or gain mass, it's very difficult to do both simultaneously.
on a PH cycle you should be eating more and training harder, and probably drop the cardio if you're trying to gain mass.
i'm doing 10 minutes of fast cardio while on my cycle just to keep ectra fat off the gut
Personally I drop cardio when I'm taking a PH.
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...
i am trying to gain lean mass i am not in a calorie deficit by any means i want the mas to be quality mass thats all

Sounds to me JMR that you're on the right track. You've increased calories for the cycle, I assume your working out hard, and you cut back on cardio. Personally I would cut back even more, like maybe only 20 minute sessions. On my 1-AD cycle I was able to increase mass, and cut fat by going with maintainence calories and doing moderate cardio. My cardio consisted of an elliptical glider twice a week for 20 minutes, and walking a brisk 2 miles twice a week.
