T3 question?

[calvinIII]

I know that T3 is very catabolic, And that you need to take some sort of AAS with it.

My question is will a winny only cycle at 50 mg ed be enough to combat the catabolism?

Bump this as I'm curious also. What about diet? Does it change while on T3? Higher Protein? 60-40?

t-3 is not catabolic in itself, it does raise your metabolic rate, it does burn up glycogen at a high rate leaving you looking flat

one of my friends ran t-3 at 50mcg/ed and actually gained 3lb of muscle while not taking any kind of AS at all

now, winny will prevent the muscle loss, although you dont want to go over 100mcg/ed of t-3

another thing to consider is your diet, many find that 40p/40c/20f works great

What about your cardio, while taking T3.
Can you still do a lot or does it make you feel sluggish and weak?
Thanks for the help also!!

T3 is merely a synthetic version of your thyroid hormone. When taken it overstimulates your thyroid function. Myself and others have found this to have some catabolic properties and I would always suggest doubling your protein intake as well as being on a strong anabolic as well. Ive always found EQ to be effective.

There is a rebound effect as well if you dont come off the T3 slowly and adjust your diet accordingly. Its nothing to be careless about considering how many jobs your thyroid has to do. I would get your thyroid function checked by your doc before and after you come off to be safe.

Peace,

What if you would be using **'s 40 mcg tabs.
How does this sound for a 42 day cycle of T3?
Total of 42 days.
Days 1-2, 10 mcg's
Days 3-5, 20 mcg's
Days 6-8, 40 mcg's
Days 9-11, 60 mcg's
Days 11-21, 80 mcg's
Days 22-25, 70 mcgs
Days 26-29, 60 mcg's
Days 30-33, 40 mcg's
Days 34-37, 20 mcg's
Days 38-42, 10 mcg's

From what I have read here, this may be too slow of a up ramp.
What do you guys think?
