Says who?
That's completely illogical.
Someone at 15% vs @ 10% would make an equal amount of lean muscle gain, all else being equal. Implying that you would make less muscle gain because you are carrying an extra 10 lbs of fat is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
Also, if you were 15% and ran tren, with some gw, you will just end up losing more total fat, and end up being nearly every bit as lean, with the same muscle gain as you would if you started at 10% bf if you diet correctly.
Obviously, we won't disagree that someone fat and out of shape has no business using steroids.
First, high endogenous estrogen levels in men come from high aromatase activity. Aromatase is the enzyme that converts androstenedione and testosterone into estrone and estradiol. Aromatase is found most prevalently in fat cells, hence the more body fat a man has, the more aromatase hence the more estrogen. When a person who has a high levels of endogenous estrogen and adds an exogenous drug that aromatizes, that person is just going to raise his estrogen levels even more and more than likely just get fatter (increase fat cells).
Moreover, excess body fat, will likely cause a spike in estrogen and return lower testosterone levels. Consequently, you are worse off than when you began the cycle because you added fat and lowered your testosterone levels. I noticed this problem is prevalent on these boards.
