I'm not willing to discuss the specifics here, but would consider disclosing privately if it really seems important or relevant to someone who is genuinely interested in giving advice. What matters for the here and now of a BB board is that my goal is to keep my scale weight reasonably constant and not dip too far below 130 at any given time.




Decrease calories below 8 to 10X body weight? I would like to keep muscle and don't mind losing fat more slowly to do so. I could hit the bromocriptine and drop calories very low indeed, but I don't think that would be doing my hard-earned LBM any favors.

I'm using AAS very conservatively. I just finished one "testing" cycle of low-dose Deca-Durabolin after four years of lifting naturally and researching the subject, mostly in the context of medical use as well as anecdotal data from the BB community. I am going to stay clean for at least six weeks, then start low dose oral Winny (5mg/day split into two doses) to check for sides, and if there are no appreciable sides, either ramp to 10mg/day or continue the 2.5mg/sid protocol primarily to decrease SHBG while adding Deca-Durabolin back in at 25 to 50 mg on a 7 to 10 day interval.

AAS isn't particularly good for losing body fat so much as retaining lean body mass, which is definitely my goal. I'm wary of using the common cutting agents for various reasons having to do with my medical risk profile, so it's diet and cardio for me.
im not too sure what ur asking girlie..........or if ur asking anything?
