Cutting and then bulking on cucle

[Ryan201291]

Hi everyone.
I am currently 2 weeks into Teat C only cycle at 400mg a week. I have decided that I’m not too happy with my body fat where it is.
Would it be possibly to do a hard 2 week cut now, and the Testosterone would help me maintain muscle during this, and then go back into a clean bulk?
So this means from week 4-12 of my cycle I would be bulking

Cheers

I think you need to figure out what your goals really are and commit to them. You've barely started your cycle and you're already changing your goals around.... I don't think you're going to accomplish much by trying to cut for two weeks and then going back to bulking.

If you're ever at a point where you're not happy with your bodyfat, chances are it will take more than 2 weeks to rectify.

Like, a lot more than 2 weeks.....

My advice: be honest with yourself, if you are way too high bodyfat just diet down on cycle. If not, then just embrace it and get huge.

I agree with Eman, figure out what your goals are and stick to them. It sounds like this might be your first cycle? If so just focus on eating perfectly every single day... you can actually build muscle while cutting fat at the same time. Your first cycle is a magical time where you can do both at the same time.

Cheers for the replies guys. Thing is that I before when I cut I actually notice a significant difference after 2 weeks. My maintenance is 3000 and I eat 2000 for 2 weeks and I can see the difference quite a lot.
So I was thinking if I just did that for 2 weeks on test, I would maintain the muscle, look leaner and then could continue to clean bulk after?

I think nothing wrong, maybe 3-4 weeks, just make sure you slowly add in cal again when you do

Maybe you’ve just overshot your calories. I see a big difference like you after 2 weeks of cutting, so I get it, but maybe just clean up your diet and stay on track to gain. You’d probably drop a couple pounds of bloat doing that anyway and be happier.

Depends on what's easier for you. If you drop weight quickly and gain hard?

Clean bulk and then dial it back. You'll see a little boost from the additional muscle mass.

If you pack on muscle easily, cut then proceed.

Either way, you're going to recomp some anyway if diet is on point. So...I dunno.

Just advice.

Do what the FUCK you wanna do.

Bulk or cut. You can't do both effectively.

You need to figure out which you want to do more, do that 100% and then use your next cycle to do the other.

IMHO and not IME of course as I’ve never cycled, I wouldn’t want to go through the hassle of learning and going through my first cycle if my intention was to cut at all. I think if you just hit the gym hard, cleaned up your carb intake a bit and tried to make progress on your lifts, you’d become a larger person and like the direction you’re going.

Get lots of fiber at night and check yourself out after your morning shit - not with a full belly when you’re in the bathroom at night. IME I made my best gains when I went to bed looking quite bloated in the belly.

If you add mass to your shoulder girdle and upper chest area, which is one of the first places to explode on cycle from my understanding, it will make your belly and love handles look smaller by comparison as well.

Commit to becoming larger. My opinion.

Thanks everyone for your replies
I think I’m just gonna go ahead and do a little mid cycle cut for 2 weeks and then continue. I know that my body cuts down really well even after a week/2 weeks, so I think it’s worth it, and I’m sure strength gains will still continue on 400mg Test C.
I’ll let you all know how it goes, will be interesting

Run the cut at the end of your bulk. Everyone inceases bf on a bulk.
