Has anyone used T3 for...

[Goldprospector]

HAve you used small doses of T3 for a maintanence dose? something like 12.5 or 25 mcg's per day, instead of doing the ramp up and down for a major weight loss or cutting.

What would be the result? Pro's/Con's?

12.5 mcgs per day is good for nutrient uptake and will help on a bulker

I know its very benefitcal to use T3 at that dosaage (12-25mcgs) a day along with HGH-- for that gh does lower your body temp.

I've used 25 mcg very successfully on a bulker. I put on 31 ibs on my last one with that dose, do a very clean low carb bulk. I did put on some water despite the letro, so it clearly was not 31 ibs of muscle. I would say I gained something like 15 ibs of lbm, but I was really surprised how using the t3 and higher doses than usual worked so well on my extremely high protien and fat intake.

25mcg/day all thru a cycle for protein synthesis.

Dial_tone, yes, but I've been given scripts in the past for 12.5 of cytomel due to hypothyroidism that I had BEFORE ever using t3. I'm not worried about my thyroid slowing down, since mine is already abnormal. Actually, since coming off, it seems to be normal though. My diet and training have improved it over the years. When I first started training I had worse problems with it.

thanks guys. K for all but BBF
I gotta keep spreading it around before he get's any more...Dang I usually run out everyday...how long does it take?

 

[Deleted member 33117]

Not a problem bro. I've got about 20 pts already today, from other posts.

 

[Dial_tone]

I'm beginning to think I'm hypothyroidic lately too. I'm 240 lbs but anything over 2,500 cals a day and i'm gaining weight.

there was an old article by andy69 in which he recommended using 10-15mcg of T3. paul borressen recommends using that amount post cycle for its anti catabolic properties. according to him, low dose T3 isnt catabolic

DJ, correct, t3, unless excessive, is anabolic, not catabolic.

 

[bicepts101]

this is all new to me

i may give it a try

When you get a script for this...is it supposed to be indefinite... simlar to HRT?

 

[slugfast6868]

so you all are saying that if you take around 25mcg a day, it is not too catabolic? if you are on a high protein diet? Im running the Mr X ANPB diet now, for about 3 more weeks, for about 4 weeks total, and wasn't gonna crack the bottle of cytomel, but if itll help and be somewhat anabolic, it could be a shot.... otherwise, just save it for later...

let me know what you think bodybyfinalplex, cause I was gonna save it for Tren/Winny for 8-10weeks sometime in the next month or so

That's an interesting point of view. I never thought about taking 12.5mcg of T3 post cycle as an anabolic aid, I'm too afraid of it actually possibly increasing post cycle catabolism (my cycle was a cutter not a bulker)
