t3  ?

Question.  Let's say someone was to use 50mcgs/ed of t3 for about a month.  how much bf would this person expect to lose and how much would they expect to gain after stopping.  Would this be an adequate dose?  Is the duration long enough or too long?

most people use the pyramid dosing.  Start at 25mcg perday for the first week and then increase by 25 everyweek till u hit 100 or 125 (depending on preference) and then come down by 25mcg perweek till you hit 25mcg again.  T3 HELPS you lose fat but it is not a magic pill......used in conjuction with a great diet and exercise you will see good results.  Everyone is different so it is tough to gauge how much fat will be lost.  If you have more fat to lose then you'll prolly lose more fat but if you're at say 10% you won't get down to 7% as easily

Hope this helps

Tubbs is right,another thing to consider,if you don't pyramid T3 but use a constant dose like 50QD two things may happen that can hurt your fat loss goals. By not going up in dose each week,the body will adapt to the consistant 50mcg "supplemental" dose by down regulating it's own T3,and you'll quickly reach a "steady state" of essentially a normal blood T3 level. Second problem,by not tapering the dose downwards but stopping cold,you will temporarily become "low thyroid" and your metabolism will slow until your bodies TSH level rises enough to stimulate production of T3 again and acheive normal levels. Both of these effects would be more pronounced if you were planning a steady dose for longer than a month,but they represent the principle reasons for the pyramid style dosing,it makes the body constantly adjust and adapt to a changing levels of T3.... mimics a hyperthyroid condition initially,and then allows natural T3 to recover without risking the slow metabolism that hypothyroidism will induce.

be sure to keep up the protein intake so you don't end up losing muscle to the increased metabolism.

thanks everyone.   also.  is it true that while taking t3 along w/aas, there can be a synergistic effect, on the aas.

yeah, low doses of t-3 aid in protien synthesis

that's where im getting confused, a little can promote protein synthesis, but more can cause muscle atrophy? #$  #$  #$

For muscle catabolism to happen while on T-3 and AAS your AAS doses would have to be extremely low..T-3 doses extremely high...and your diet....extremely shitty
