First few weeks of test e

[Elliotmax]

I'm currently on a cut which I'm planning to continue 2 - 3 weeks into my 1st cycle of test e.

Will the test allow me to get away with a harsher diet or does it not do much until it kicks in?

And will I have enough time to carb back up and bring cals to a decent amount slowly by week 6?

Thanks in advance!

the test will all you to maintain muscle better surely when u are cutting or in a caloric deficit . however you will probably have better results on it if your plan is to gain muscle if u stay on a caloric surplus and feed yourself alot and high protein , i would personaly use it for a bulk cycle more than anything , especially first , and then while still on near the end if you want to cut , cut in the end to get rid of unwanted fat . remember too u wil hold some water retention

I've been cutting for a while now, so though might as will continue a few more weeks. I wanna then transition to bulking and keep bulking into PCT to maintain the gains. I'm cutting now, don't wanna start bulking, then cutting again at the end of my cycle, then bulking again during post cycle therapy (pct). That wouldn't be a good idea.

u can try it man , theres no written in stone way to how to run it , so give it a shot and see hows it goes . im just suggeting that by feeding youself more throughout the cycle and high protein , im sure u will gain more muscle mass then if not , id personaly either do one or the other . either a cut cycle , or a bulk . if u are going to bulk after u cut , to me it defeats the purpose of cutting . u cut so that u look trimmed and lean , so to bulk after you achived this makes no sense to me . maximize gains and bulk all the way

I've done this, so has Cyborg. Cut for 2-3 weeks into cycle, swap to maintenance calories for 2 weeks, then begin to ramp up the calories till your 500-1000/day surplus.

FINALLY!! I've been looking for a reply from experience about this. Were you able to maintain your BF% by the end?

Started the cycle @ 10%, finished 16 weeks at 12%...so not a huge fat gain. I wasn't going for a big cut though, just wanted to get down from 14% to 9-10% before cycle.
