clen/t3 cycle for female with prior experience?

[musclehealth]

My buddies girlfriend has been training and dieting for years. She has competed in 6 competitions. She is off season but wanted to keep her look throughout the warm months of the year. She is running clen and t3 like...

Clen 2 weeks on 2 off @ 60mcg (tapering up and down)
T3 @ 50mcg ED weeks 1-6.

This is the problem. She complains that when she comes off the clen she feels muscle loss. I explanied that muscle loss is occuring because t3 had a catabolic effect on the muscle. The clen helps ease some muscle loss but when ur off the clen the t3 is too strong. She was planning on some anavar but decided to try the cycle without it this time.

Whats a better way 2 do it so she wont loose the muscle?

I wass thinking

2 weeks on 2 weeks off of both clen and t3.

What do you guys suggest????

exactly what you said. Although I wouldnt have her taper down on the Clen.

Its from the t3, once she's off the clen the t3 is the one that has those properties...im not sure if i would cycle t3 on and off like the clen..IMO the clen is fine the way she's doing it...just comes with the territory when your doing t3 and no gear...i'd say maybe bump her protein intake on those 2 weeks off of clen...

shouldn't the T3 be cycled in pyramid?

It can be but not necassary ...although I would say that if your doing more then 25mcgs then you should taper it.

Im going to have her stay @ 25-30mcg ED throughout. 50 is 2 high.

That's very debatable. Many guys will tell you to taper T3 up and down, spending the majority of the time tapering down to minimize the thyroid slowing down. Others argue that there is no evidence behind this theory and that tapering down does nothing to help your thyroid recover and that it will do it on its own.

All agree to taper up though.

I'd say drop the t3 dose to 25 max and might want to consider a really low dose of var just for muscle preservation.
