5 Week Cut

I am on my hols in 5 weeks and I am currently at 15% BF

I would like to get down to single figure BF in 5 weeks, with a little loss to mass as possible.

I am happy with the training plan and diet I have planned but I am wondering about the supplementation.

I am currently running

(TRT) sustanon 125mg EOD
HGH 8iu ED
metformin 800mg ED
Ephedrine 90mg ED

Note: The HGH and metf. cycle is working great for me so far :slight_smile:

I wanted to add T3 into the cycle but I cannot get any.

I do have 27 vials of winstol, would it be worthwhile adding 50mg of winstrol ED for 27 days? Would I be best to increase the test dosage if I use the winstrol?

I bought the winstrol as it was going really cheap and I was planning on saving it for future use, but you know what its like when stuff is just sitting there, I am tempted to use it, but only if you think it will be beneficial with my current cycle.

Its POSSIBLE… but a tough one… whats your current weight?

Are you pulling my leg?

I will assume you arent…

You have to lose 12.5lbs to get to 9%…

Over 5 weeks thats 2.5lbs a week… do-able… may lose more muscle than wanted in that short space though. the AAS will help considerably though.

I think you’ll do it…

The question - i personally think the winny will benefit you in this goal. It will harden you up nicely as you get down towards 9%… which is a great maintenance BF IMO… you can gain at 9-10% bf, but you look ripped to the general public!

I would highly recommend adding some proviron to the cycle… it will harden you up, dry you out, and it will make the 500mg of sust more like 750mg of sust.

Thanks a lot JJ

it is a difficult task and I doubt I will acheive it in 5 weeks but even a 2-3% BF reduction would be good, if I aim for the single figure I will acheive the best I can.

Thanks a lot I will look into the prov :slight_smile:

If you can get to 12% and raise your blood pressure high enough you would look ripped as fuck…just a thought ha ha j/k

i think aiming for 9% is too much to ask of yourself in 5 weeks.
Getting from 15 down to 11 would be pushing it, but would allow you to retain more lean mass.

Id run the winstrol @ 60mg ed and add the proviron to your cycle as suggested @ 50mg per day.

Just a thought, if you are going abroad, how are you intending to continue your TRT? This is something that i have not had to encounter as of yet and i have no real experience with smuggling.

Keep in mind that inorder to get down to that BF in such a short amount of time your gonna have to have your diet dialed. what did u have in mind as far as dieting/cardio wise?

Good points here, but I am inclined to disagree on two ideas: 1) Not only does it seem illogical to stack an array of AAS/hormones at an even-higher level for the sake of minimizing atrophy, but 2) I also don’t think the Proviron would be adequate.

The benefits of keeping dosages within a moderate range outweigh whatever minuscule difference in atrophy the Winstrol would make, although some might say its ability to lessen SHBG alone might make it worthwhile; that’s up in the air.

Proviron is not only very expensive, but hardly worth it if all you’re looking for is hardening up and drying out. Unfortunately, both are only temporary and at 9% (not exactly competition-level), I would hardly deem it worth spending that kind of cash on a tad bit of water loss.

Use the winstrol, you’ll like what you see, but I would do it eod.

Proviron = “A tad bit of water loss”?

NO WAYY! Its much more than that!

You say it doesnt make sense to stack a couple of aas to minimise atrophy but you say the winny may be good to minimise SHBG…but you dont want the SHBG properties of the proviron, which i happen to know is 1) very reasonable from a few sources, 2) a cheap addition for the OP personally, 3)a must for any test cycle, 4) a mild AI 5) a strong SHBG binding drug 6)great wth a low bodyfat… yes 9% isnt competition ready, but it is a great bodyfat level to have…

He needs to use an anabolic to reduce atrophy from such an extreme goal, and the proviron will help make max use of the test he has - keeping it at a moderate dose too.

Stacking 500mg test, 350mg winstrol and some proviron is hardly superman dosages now it is contrl?

What DO you suggest then? Just testosterone…? Why wouldnt he get the benefit from the winstrol if he has it already? Fair enough if he doesnt want to spend more… but still, proviron is a good choice here IMPO.

Certainly no worries on taking your own, that’s for sure.

Yes, just Test. What exactly is so un-hardcore about a single compound cutting cycle? He’s trying to reduce bodyfat, hence his primary concern should be his cardiovascular exercise and caloric output. Not just how fancy a cocktail he can stick in himself.

Simplicity goes a long way. There won’t be a need to worry about excess SHBG build-up on a short (5-week) cycle with a moderate (500mg) Test dosage. No fancy assed amount of AAS is going to get him to 9%, his diet and training will.

out of curiosity Eales, would you not be able to get t3 2 weeks before you left the country??

Cntrl; is diet and training enough to reach 9% in 5 weeks, though i appreciate your comments; infact i fully agree with them, i think they will need to be coupled with a fancy little cycle to reach that goal on such a short time without catabolising too much lbm.

May also be worth switching from sust now as well to perhaps enanthate eales, imo less water retention and less pinning to do on your excursion i.e. less gear to smuggle.

I NEVER said steroids will help him get to 9%. EVER! I dont believe that to be true… so…

You made a fairly valid point in places it just seems to have very little in connection with my post! Almost as if you are disagreeing with me for the sake of it, but i am sure you wouldnt do that…

Test/winny and MAYBE a little proviron isnt a fancy assed cycle in my book, and not for the majority of posters here from the cycles i read about often! Even with a plain ol’ Test cycle - like my first test cycle, i use proviron. I rate its use in AAS use for a variety of reasons, you dont - thats fine, your loss! :wink:

You may be right about not having to worry about SHBG in the 5 weeks, that is probably true, and not something i considered, thanks (however i personally would still add it for its other properties, along with any extra shbg work it may give in the time allotted) - but i do not believe you are right about “only” 500mg of T not needing it. Not at all. In fact it is really useful to manage SHBG in the low doses as while there will be less problem with SHBG, when the globulin is reduced it makes the smaller T dose have a much greater effect.
But adding the Winstrol would be an advantage IMO… not to help him get down to 9%, but to give a nice texture to him when he does get low… i get the grainy look coming through at 10-11% when pumped, so 9% - if he makes it - could look real nice, depending on his physiology.
The extra anabolism with no estrogen, the SHBG properties (winstrol? does it? just going off your comment there…!), possible strength kick start…

Also i never said a single drug cycle is un-hardcore, so no need to take offence - the majority of cycles i have run have included only one AAS (except proviron which i dont really count as an AAS - although it is one, more an ancillary drug) and at a maximum two so far. You do seem to be taking offence from things i simply didnt say… no need obviously!

Not even research chems? Cuz Clen/T3 would be awesome!

Either way, the winny should help.

Good luck! Don’t forget to let us know what you finally decide and what your progress is!

Good good point, well remembered mate, i think we all know a good research site too.

Fuck the clen though, nasty nasty.
