Good Plan for losing fat?

[bigpun]

I will be doin a cycle consisting of Tren, prop, t3, and Clen. I was wonderin if this would be a good workout program to loose fat while retaining muscle. I will be on a strict diet with high protein and low carbs.

Mon.- Workout then cardio 30 min.
Tues.- Cardio in the morning first thing 30 min.
Wed. - Workout then cardio 30 min.
Thurs.- Cardio in morning
Friday- Workout then cardio
Sat. and Sun.- Off

I don't know that you'll get many replies to this, beyond mine, as you'll need to be specific with your questions. What you've laid out is a good template. But there are some many avenues, adjustments, tips, tricks, etc. that could be implemented if you ask the right questions. Do a little searching on fat loss. Search in just the title for that. I believe there is a big thread called, "Fat loss, let's get the ball rolling." There is plenty of info in there.

Re: Fat Loss

Like Girth said, I think we need a few more specifics. For instance, what sort of workout are you referring to. My personal preference is to lift heavy while in a fat loss cycle, i.e. rep ranges of 8-4 and perhaps lower. I have had (and am currently having) good experience with similar protocols. The MWF template you have laid down is a good place to start. Another tip is this, to split the cardio and weight sessions to different parts of the day to keep cortisol from taking too much of a toll (ideally with cardio in the AM). My favorite template is this:
M am: 60 min of your favorite cardio
M pm: Olympic lifts
T: 60 min cardio
W am: 60 min cardio
W pm: Horizontal push/pull i.e. Flat bench/Bent-over barbell rows
Th: 60 min cardio
F am: Vertical push/pull i.e. Military press/Chin-up
S am: 40 min jogging and 100m sprints
Su: Off
All weight sessions are 4 exercises/5 sets. I run this in 4 wk cycles peaking weights at the third week and backing off in the 4th. In other words reps would go something like this:
Wk1: 8
Wk 2: 6
Wk 3: 4
Wk 4: 6
Like I said, this is my favorite protocol for fat loss; tweaked over the past few years. I know it's not your typical bodybuilder type of plan, but I have a bit different perspective on things. I feel the heavy lifting provides a proper stimulus to help minimize muscle loss. That being said, diet and the associated caloric restriction are the number one variables, though. I personally low-carb it; trying to keep protein above 1.5g/lb BM w/ almost all fats coming from flax oil/EPA/DHA. Post workout CHO/PRO shakes then become super important. If one was not on low carbs, try to restrict them to after waking and after workouts only (and low glycemic). Obviously, everyones different but this is my take on things. Hope that helped.

I appreciate all of the help SJ and that is some good info. I will try to do this schedule since it sounds like you know what you are talking about. Although, this is the best way that i can do. Let me know what you think of this schedule.

M: Workout in afternoon with a lil cardio after (Chest, Tris, Calves)
T: 30 min. cardio in the AM (running, walking)
W: Same as Monday (Back, Bis, Shoulders)
T: Same as tues.
F: Same as M..W ( Chest and arms)
S: Some type of cardio (basketball)
Sunday: Off

Do not want to work out legs cause of a hernia from squats plus my legs are big and strong enough, i just simply want to cut them up so i will do this mainly by running. This is what my workout is most likely going to look like. I will be on a low-carb, high protein diet with this cycle and I am lookin to lose around 35 lbs. Let me know what you think. Thanks for all the help.
