Thanks for the advice, all great stuff.

Yea, when I last cut, I tried everything. Started just cutting calories, carbs mostly.

But I'd always get stuck.

I got down to almost 1500 calories a day and I was losing all my muscle.

I think I almost hit 155. I was like 165 when started. At the time I had built up a lot of belly fat, and some muscle.

So it was tough, because not only was I sapped of all energy, my body wasn't taking fat alone.

I do believe I have some things going for me this time.

First, I have you guys.

This site is a resource that's been invaluable to me.

Second, I have a much better base of muscle. I won't know for sure until I'm off cycle. Another few weeks I think. I was doing 12, but decided to stretch it the other 2-3. Either way my guess is I'll have a good 20 pounds of muscle that I didn't have before. If not more. I hope that helps with the getting body to use fat.

And lastly, I'll be in a much better anabolic situation. Test E, tren, and likely I'll use T3 or clen if I'm not successful doing without.

Thanks guys for the great advice.

I'll be sure to let everyone know what my plan is before launch, that way I can gain valuable feed back.
