[getfit]

Hey guys im 23 6.0' 220 14% bf... I have been doing cardio for 30 min. a day after my workouts and on a diet... Since the diet/cardio i have lost a good amount of fat but have been taking clen/t3. In three weeks i will start my test deca cycle and wondering if i keep my diet and cardio in a straight line will i still see fat lose while this cycle???

Yes, if your diet and cardio remain constant you will continue to lose.

As long as you continue to burn more calories than you consume

Over the last eight months I've done two different test/deca cycles at about 300mg a weak each with pretty much the same goals you have. And I gained about twenty five pounds of muscle and I've lost about fourty pounds of fat. I trained each body part once a weak and did an hour of cardio five days a weak. Looking back I think I could have gained more muscle if I had eaten more protien. But I wanted to lose the fat so bad that I dieted to hard. I'm still trying to lose the last 15 lbs. of fat while gaining muscle but now I'm trying to eat 200 to 225 grams of protien a day while consuming less then 3000 calories a day. I weigh 235 and I'm 6'3. So I guess what I'm saying is make sure you eat enough protien and try and burn 500 calories more a day then you consume. What do you guys think about what I wrote?

I think what you said is nearly impossible (gaining 25lbs of muscle and losing 40lbs of fat in 8 monhts) but that's just my opinion

with a good amount of protien i will bulk and still gain size with heavy cardio and diet?

 

[outlawtas]

well you can't really have your cake and eat it oo, but yes if your diet/cardio is in the right range you will gain lbm and lose fat but don't expect to get shredded and gain 10lbs of muscle.

Well I just counted and March started the tenth month so I was off when I said eight months. And the 25lbs of muscle and 40lbs of fat are estimates because I didn't get my body fat tested when I started, it's now 16%. I did measure my waist and stomach and my waist went from 43in to 36in. My biceps went from 17 to 18. And I weighed 258lbs. when I started and today I weighed 234lbs. But I've got to say I think I'm real close with my estimates on muscle gain and fat loss. I should add I'm 40 years old and for the three years preceding the last ten months I hadn't worked out at all because I was recovering from back surgery. But before the surgery I had worked out regularly for 15 years. Over the last ten months I did do two different deca/test cycles and for as hard as I've dieted and lifted plus the fact that I was on steroids most of the time I thought I should have made better gains. Why do you find this so unbeleviable? All things considered what would you have expected?

It just sounds a little extreme, but who am I to say? If you did it then you have something to be proud of . Hard work pays off.
