When to start cutting

[facethepain]

Hey guys this is my first post here. I've been checking out this forum for a while and really like it. The Mods seem real helpful as well as know what they're talking about. It's also nice to see a sight that dosen't flame the hell out of you for anything, though sometimes people need it. Anyway, good to be here and i'll get to the point. When should I start cutting (before, during, or after PCT)? This was my first cycle: Test E @ 400/wk. for 10 wks. I'm in my 7th wk. I have clomid and nolva for PCT. Just trying to get ready.

I suggest taking 6-10 weeks after PCT and going maintenance. HAve to give your body time to readjust to the new weight. If you cut to soon you are basically aiding Homeostasis, which is not good, IMO.

Agreed, give you body time to find out where it is going keep your new weight.

I agree. If you put yourself in a catabolic state, you'll lose most of the muscle you just built.

I suggest doing both in one cycle whether you're on or off. I spend 3 weeks lean bulking, 1 week cutting then rinse and repeat for 12-16 weeks.
