Controlling test bloat - sodium or A.i?

[Trainforyourself123]

What is it that causes the test bloat? For some reason when I eat a cheat meal on test I seem to wake up so fat it's not even a joke, water everywhere.

Is it the sodium? The fact my A.i dosage isn't high enough or is it just because your body holds more water generally.. Curious to how you guys control it, or is my diet just got too much sodium/carbs?

Sodium and Carbs will cause you to retain more water. You also need to check your estradiol.

as megatron said; sodium, carbs and e2. i've been cutting for the past 2 months, last weekend i binged out and said fuck it and had a whole cheat day. next day i felt like i gained all the weight i lost right back hahha. i didnt.. it was just bloat

there are a number of things that will cause bloat.. carbs, sodium, hormones.. hydrating after a spell of dehydration

from the sounds of it, youre experiencing sodium bloat (and likely hormone bloat while at it) because hormone bloat doesn't happen overnight, but you can gain 5lbs of water with sodium bloat over night
