why do you think there is an effect on Test levels.

scientifically I dont see how a traumatic effect would effect how the drug was actually working on your test levels.

However I do see how something like this could skew how stressed your body is which could then alter how your hormones are responding – I.E increased cortisol etc – negative effect on digestion due to stress/anxiety – could then all play a secondary role in skewing things and making you feel off.

If you test is dosed correctly and at your current body fat levels I really dont see muscle loss as being a worry at all IME.

you can certainly move to maintain kcal for a week and then go again.

I am leaning towards maintenance for a weeks break idea , then push again to get the body fat low enough to push up just trying to be efficient as possible [/quote]
In truth if performance is fine – you feel ok and your managing fine then there is no need for the 1 week break – if you want to be as efficient as possible in your journey then the goal is to get the fat off as quickly and as effectively as possible.

Your on 300mg test per week which is double a TRT dose.

your Bf is not low enough at all were there would be a risk of muscle loss IMO.

So unless your feeling beat up and seeing performance drop then you can continue pushing until you see it then break.

Fully agree with the above.

Dont over think – its just creatine – use it year round there will be no issues 🙂

Lantus – 10iu training days with meal 1

Safe

Effective

Easy to manage as limited chance of hypo

Would always be my prefered first step these days

Agree with Peter

Generally I think adding lantus at this dose is appropriate when carbs go above 400/500 ish per day

Insulin use is largely dictated by food intake

You take time off when you drop food. [/quote]

Is there a min threshold of daily carbs I need to be hitting before considering insulin?

Or do I just scale back according to my carbs and still get benefits.

Eg at 300g carbs take less than 10iu.

[/quote]
Check your morning BG reads to see what they are now and what they are with the Insulin in but for me 10iu on that amount should be no issues for any one.

Hey Peter, I see you said the anavar isn’t needed, but what benefits does it potentially offer in this scenario?

Ability to maintain performance or step it forward as the deficit increases and fat loss progresses.
increased overall drug load which will help maintain muscle.

There is some research to show anavar has a potential benefit of aiding in midsection fat dropping faster in a deficit – I cant remember the exact study but I have seen one – how much significance this has is debatable but it was a reported finding 🙂
