Even then, there is no legitimate way to spot reduce. Your body sheds fat as a whole. It won't just take fat from spot x or y. As I'm sure you know, that's just not how the body works. And I'm not just some dude saying this Lol. I have a degree in exercise physiology and all that jazz
like i said, very choppy evidence.. lol
 
I use Exemestane for ai. I read recently of a guy that spot used letro in very small doses and infrequently, to control estrogen. I have started doing this, using tiny dose once a week. First time I did this, what I thought was tiny was not, crashed my estrogen a bit. I have it a bit more dialed in now. I do this to not go through my stane as much. My request is any thoughts of yours on this, good starting points, and generally any wisdom you could throw out. Many thanks sir.

are you doing this on cycle?? trt?? or off completely??

letro is very underestimated... .25mg of letro will reduce your estrogen by 98%

it is not something to use to sustain balanced e2... adex is a much better and safer option
 
There is 100% absolutely no such thing as spot reduction.

That has been the thought for a long time in BB circles, but some guys I have talked to say when they lose more fat around their abs if they do HIIT training then do ab work during the rest period. They swear that it helps them get leaner, but his is not the old school traditional spot reduction method....................but in theory it is still spot reduction.

Absolutely untrue. This is just them over thinking their routine. By doing HIIT they are expending more calories, which in turn can lead to more fat loss.

Take spot reduction out of your mind. It is a myth, just like the easter bunny.
 
3J you said to ask questions but nothing was on suppliments, but this one ties into gear. I think I have found the perfect bridge between cycles, for me at least it works great. I loose very little strength or size when using this protocol.

UR spray ( ursobolic acid in a topical form)
Phosphatidic acid
IGF-1 ( mc of course)

I am sure I will get a "if it works for you great", but wanted a comment on what you like for a bridge product that doesn't suppress the system.
 
I am talking on cycle, 1250 testC, 750deca. I usually use exemestane only, however I got in a pickle and was close to running out, so had to start using the leto by the time I recieved additional supplies.

igf is the mother of all bridging compounds imo.. with no effect on the hpta its always the best choice

what dosages are you running the letro??

the great thing about letro is its ability to keep prog down with e2... so that kills two birds with one stone.. and with the amount of gear you are running you might be able to justify letro use
 
What's the best way to get rid of visceral tummy fat? I am an older guy running an average of 400-500 mg/wk of test cyp year round. I rest very little between sets, and by the time I hit the bike after training with weights my heart is beating around 135 beats per minute, and I keep that rate up for 30 minutes on the bike. Thanks for your response(s)
 
Hi 3j

What's your thoughts on Anavar use in women? Can a low dose of 5mg be run continuously or 2.5mg ED be run such as a guy would cruise on Test?

since there is no such thing as spot reduction with fat loss you cant specifically and only target visceral fat.. visceral fat is the fat deeper in the tummy that surrounds organs.. its also the more dangerous fat.. studies indicate the higher your visceral fat the more likely you have health risks like insulin resistance..

in your whole post you talked about your cycle and your training.. what you need to be focusing on is your diet.. the diet will help get rid of it..

on a well balanced caloric deficit with your exercise routine the body will start using fat for energy.. including your visceral fat..

it is a stubborn fat.. after all belly fat is the last to go on most people

anavar boasts a high anabolic effect with a minimal androgenic characteristic.. anything thats minimal androgenic is safer for women to use..

considering vars mild hepatoxicity, it is actually fairly safer to run for a longer time.. though i wouldn't recommend running it for more than 8 weeks..

in terms of your question, there is still a likelyhood of virilization... so i wouldn't recommend running var for extended periods of time as a female..

if you want to be a lab rat as a female you can run var at 5mg a day but as soon as you see anything like unwanted hair growth, deepening of voice, or enlarged clit i would immediately stop it..

i have not looked at studies on var and its effects on the female hormone balance.. so thats something else to consider when trying to run it for extended periods of time..

A lot of guys say you can't build a big upper body without dead lifting and squatting - what are your thoughts on squats and dead lifts when it comes to developing the upper body?

Does a low Test score on the SBHG cause some people to require higher doses of AAS compared to someone with a normal range? Mine is in the basement at 13.40 it was low prior to starting on Test ...13.64 six months. My heart panels etc are perfect and low rating. I have noninflamation and liver panel is perfect. Just saying that I've read that SBHG low readings is caused by factors that I do not have at this time.

squats and deads are really amazing workouts.. but to say you cant build a big upper body without those two exercises is a far cry from the truth..

they will help your growth alot.. but i know guys who cant squat and dead due to injuries who look like monsters..

im guessing you mean SHBG right?? sex hormone binding globule??

how funny that youre even worried about that.. usually people want a lower SHBG score.. the lower your SHBG then higher your free test.. remember shbg binds to free test..

i know on trt my shbg scores were just a little higher than then needed to be once i started and settled out about 6-8 months in.. causing a rise in my free test

there are concerns with adrenal fatigue but thats a trt thing..

are you asking in the contest of on cycle, natural, or on trt?

Sorry i had to chime in on this, you will not get to that ""MONSTER"" status if you dont squat and deadlift when your starting out, its a must in my opinion, and once your already there, then sure you can workaround those exercises and maintain, especially if your injured now and cant do them, but for anyone starting out, you must squat and deadlift. Thats my take, and im sure those monster your speaking about who cant squat and dead now due to injury all have made squats and deads a staple in their training back when they were not injured and just starting out.

again just my 2 cents, and i stayed in a holiday inn express last night!
 
Not really sure why I have a low Shbg below normal? I read the four main causes and they don't fit me. So a 13.40 low score is a good thing???
