Starving/Can't lose fat on Test cycle

[Voijn]

Those that think by cutting carbs away results in a weightloss it also results in muscle wasting and loss of strength since the muscles will begin to eat out of their own glycogen stores wich in nother hand will make u fatigue alot faster in the gym = loss og strength and therefore loss of mass

My advice would be to find out your maintainence kcal intake, cut down 500kcal then you should loss some fat in about a weeks time, give it 2weeks.. if this does not help go 750kcal down and do that untill you find out that your loseing weight

15-20% 50% 30% energy

2500kcal´s is low! but hey everyone is different

problems highlighted


Im not saying go no carb but the amount you're taking in is insane
and honey?

There is nothing wrong with bananas, especially when cutting

so...everyone that carb cycles loses strength? or...people that go for IF ..or go on strict keto diets?

I specifically said he didn't have to go no carb but the amount of carbs was incredibly high in his diet


and youngncurious, go look up the glycemic index of bananas...then go look up the glycemic index of white bread...and get back to me
and when you're doing that compare the sugar content of a green banana vs a ripe banana

and before you argue potassium go check out the sugar content in an avocado then its potassium content and compare it to a banana

there are better choices out there...

FTR if you find something that works for you by all means do it

It's not that big of a deal. Sugars from bananas won't be THAT harmful anyways. I've never had a problem cutting while eating them nor heard of anyone who has. Just find what works for you and stick to it.

OTHER QUESTIONS: Do I need to be in caloric defiict to actually lose fat while on test? Should I add food and add cardio (cardio is 30 mins post workout right now)? Should I add another compound/fat burner?

If that's a serious question , you shouldn't be using test.

Totally agree. I can be VERY STRICT on my diet. My wife calls me a "Diet Nazi", but I also reward myself. Back in March of 2011 I ran the Oakland Marathon. What did I do right after that? Treated myself to a nice big Carl's Jr. Super Star w/ Cheese, large Onion Rings, and a Milkshake!!!

I was in heaven. LOL!

lololololol! Fantastic!

Don't worry about BF if you have a year to get in shape. Kill it while you can.

Lol i think wayy tooo much food i rekon drop to 2000 - 2500 even use low test such as 250mg test(p ,e or c) just to maintain muscle

you're right to a degree...I wasn't saying wipe out every carb in his diet tho..just highlighting where the problems lie..just too much of the muchness if hes havin a problem cutting

I cant actually cut while eating any fruit..including bananas so! nice to meet you..now you know someone

and I agree wholeheartedly with the last sentence..dont screw with what works for you personally
