25mg t3 looking flat - is it the t3 or just cutting life?

[oliverduke]

So I'm prescribed t4 at 100mg ed and thought about adding 25mg t3 for a slight boost at end of my cut.


Im looking flatter but not sure if thats from cutting itself or the t3

is 25mg enough to cause said effect? seems a low dose compared to what most would use...

Im also on 200mg test per week (trt plus slightly more)

combined with the t4 it could be the t3 causing this. It causes rapid depletion of ATP (as well as glycogen) stores so it can def make you look flat.

I thought T4 dose was like 25-100mcg for fatloss and I was told to stay under 75mcg ed. Is this wrong?
* I am not using it, just from what i was told and read about*

Technically 100mcg of t4 would be an HRT dose. He is basically doubling (in theory) his thyroid hormones by stacking the t4 qt 100mcg and then taking what is an hrt dose of t3 (25mcg). The normal concern would be muscle loss but he has a test base in place to prevent that. In a females case you would require an anabolic to go over the doses you mentioned or you risk losing muscle as well.
