Lowering BF% on Test only

[ch3mical]

I will be starting a 12 week cycle of Test E (500 mg per week) shortly, and just found out that I will be going to vegas near the end of it. I'm currently bulking up and sitting at around 14% body fat. The goal of this cycle was to put on as much lean muscle as possible, but now that I'll be going some place where I'll frequent the pools, I'd like to try and lower my BF% as well. How hard would it be to put on lean muscle plus lose body fat while only on Test E? It's my first cycle, so I'm not looking to add anything else to my cycle (besides my Aromatase inhibitor (AI) and PCT).

Should I still be eating 500-1000 over maintenance and keep the diet nice and clean? Should I do some low intensity, high duration fat burning cardio daily?

Test can help you achieve both goals of bulking or cutting. Your diet steers what direction it helps you in

Absolutely. But I'm wondering if there is a way to both gain a good amount of muscle and lose body fat. Normally, you can only achieve one or the other based on your diet.

I'd really hate to waste the chance to gain a good amount of muscle on my first cycle, but unfortunately, I won't have much time to cut after my cycle ends. I'll be in the middle of post cycle therapy (pct) when I'm on vacation.

there is only one way to do both, and your most likely not ready for it.

I would eat up and get those maximum gains from your first cycle, work on being shredded for your next vacation

Does it start with a T and end with an N?

Just do a recomp diet, have days with calorie deficit and have days with lean mass for bodyparts youre trying to add to

No. I think it starts with diet and ends with diet.

No. I think it starts with diet and ends with diet.

How am I not ready for a diet?

Where in my post did I say or refer to you not being ready for a diet? Please aware me.

Just eat as much clean calories as you can then worry about a cutting cycle later
