T3 is very catabolic???

[ChadMaestro]

Mate just linked me saying that t3 is highly catabolic. The same link still recommends taking the two together, but then says that u shouldn't take t3 for more than 10 days, whereas the down low cycle says to take it for 45 days.

Is that all bullshit? Can I still do the clen for 2 weeks and t3 for 45 days like the down low thread says?

if it speeds up metabolism then yes its catabolic.

when you do cardio you will burn away muscle and fat.. guys that have jobs shoveling dirt all day and carrying watermelons will have a hard time gaining weight. a dude who sits on his ass all day will have a hard time losing weight.

having said that T3 and clen are best left to the pro's. you just don't need them if you are a newbie.

T3 can also be anabolic. I notice dramatically increased rate of muscle gain if I use a smart dose along a bulking cycle. Everything in the body is working faster while on it which means it also speeds up recovery and muscle tissue repair, wound healing etc etc.

Again it's just a matter of energy balance. It speeds up your metabolism so you are going to have to eat more. If you don't then yes of course it will be catabolic. But T3 by itself doesn't prefer burning muscle over burning any other fuel source, that is a myth.
