Sure, you can recover from that... if you aren't using a very high % of your 1 RM. The point of doing less volume is that you can do it more often and with higher loads. How "hard" a workout is will be irrelevant. Do you think your muscles perceive things in terms of how hard they are to you...

I just don't think there is any point in using all that gear for a cut, especially when the person in question is only around 195 lbs. Muscle loss isn't going to be a huge concern as long as you don't go crazy with the calorie deficit. If I were going to run that much gear, I would make it a...

I wouldn't worry too much unless you find your strength isn't back up after a couple days. I work muscles when they are still sore and haven't ever had a problem with it.

Yeah 5x5 works good for getting your main lifts up as long as you eat plenty of food. DC isn't too hard to figure out, what part of it were you having difficulty grasping? I think a lot of us here are familiar with DC so maybe we can help you get it sorted out. I'd probably recommend milking...

Not that it is relevant to the conversation... but I'm 235 lbs at 6'1 right now, around 15% bodyfat. I only squat 400 for a single and dead 500 for a single, and my quads are only 28 inches around at their thickest point, so... I guess that means you are right and I'm wrong, right? That's how...

Fatigue is not the primary growth stimulus. Tension is. You don't have to be "burnt out" after a workout for it to be productive.

With your stats, there isn't much reason to use Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (AAS) for cutting unless you are trying to get into contest shape. How lean do you want to get? If you are only 10-12%, why not bulk instead?

Don't ever start a cycle unless you already have everything, including PCT, prepared in advance.

Sorry if you thought I meant that you are tiny... that's not what I meant, what I meant was that since you aren't way past your genetic limits, muscle loss is less of an issue especially when on test/tren. So you could cut real fast and hard with little risk of muscle loss as long as you lift...

Yep, squatting 80-85% of your 1 RM for 5 sets of 5 is definitely very girly. Did you read the link that Suareezay posted? You know some of us are more concerned with adding more weight to the bar than with just getting in as much volume as possible.

No, changing the dose won't show you more results. You need to manipulate your diet instead. If you want to lose fat, stop eating so much. Which are you looking for, fat loss or mass gain? You should focus on one or the other rather than both for best results. To be honest, if I was in your...

When you say results, what exactly are you looking for?

Don't diet low carb. There have been bodybuilders who were successful and were diabetic. You may have heard of one of them.

Yeah, I hate it when I'm eating mussels and they won't stop twitching and moving. A solution is to always cook them thoroughly so you can be sure they are no longer alive. As for twitching muscles - that happens to me on occasion when I'm at a real heavy part of my routine. I get random...

Hah, just be glad you don't live in the USA.
