T3 dosage

Hi guys

As mentioned previosuly, been toying with the idea of including some t3 to my current cycle. Used a clen/t3 combination before with good effct but was I believe that my t3 dosage (tapered up to 100mcg/day) was a bit on the high side. Keen on running the compound on a much more moderate dosage and was wondering if any of your guys have had any benefits running t3 at a smaller dosage, say 40mcg, for an extended period of time (not exceeding 6 weeks)

40 to 50mcg is lekker, keeps fat down and u slowly lose fat but maintain muscle even on high cals like 4000 + , helps you eat a bit better, six weeks is fine.

cheers for the reply mate. My only concern is that I am cutting at the moment on 2500cal/day diet which is a 20% deficit of my tdee. I am running 600mg test e and 80mg var a day. My only concern is that I do not want to sacrifice any muscle on this cycle whatsoever and I am just concerned that running a 20% deficit with the addition of t3 may see me dropping both fat and muscle on this cycle.

Whats your weight and bodyfat? Are you doing any cardio, id rather eat more and throw in some more cardio. You see these noobs with no diets and just mass builders even gain a few kgs on gear, so i think you will be ok. You just cant be expecting results like on higher cal diets, but maybe start at maintance cals, and add t3 then if needed slowly drops cals by 300 or so,but var will keep u nice and dry maybe add sum mast to that will be awesome!

hey bud, thanks for the reply. at no delusions of adding on any size on this cycle, just want to drop bodyfat without no muscle loss whatsoever. its completely a body recomp cycle. As for cardio, doing three fasted cardio sessions per week at 40 min a pop. However, may change this to include 20min of cardio post workout, five days per week.

At 84kg at the moment with my bf around the 11.5% mark. Im calorie cycling though; so eating at a 20% deficit on non-training days; 10% deficit on small bodypart days and then eating at maintenance on leg/chest days. But I think you may be right, probably need to run a thermogenic fat burner as opposed to t3; looking to come in at around 9% within the next 8 weeks, but without dipping under the 80kg mark. I am running 12 weeks of test-e @600mg/week; from week 2-12 I am running var at 80mg/day; and then running a masterone ace bridge at around 100mg eod. Was considering adding some winstrol depot to the mix, but I will probably decide against it due to the fact that i would have been running the var for such an extended period of time at an elevated dosage of 80mg. Also. wanna give my liver a break before I hit pct with the nolvadex and clomid combo.

Thanks again for the feedback mate, exactly the type of advice I was looking for. BTW did the avatar, love Kai greene, train to some of his motivational speeches which has been uploaded on youtube. Porbably the most down to earth and humble guy to ever compete in the IFBB.

No dude your bodyfat seems fine, wont drop muscle, just dont drop the cals to low u will feel kak training, but the difference between12% and 8 % u a new guy, viens you never even thought you had. Var and mast you can stop bullets. But start you t3 if you do use like 3to 4weeks in,gets rid of your water dont want any joint pain. Yeah kai is the man doht give excuses they for the weak keep pushing, people will be so quick to crict you,because you have achived something they only dream about peace out. only 4meals to go and its a non training day lol the joys!

To be honest I would go for higher calories for your leg day if u are using higher doses of t3. Remember that t3 increases metabolic rate quite a lot so u can get away with slightly higher calories on carb up days

hi DJ, appreciate the reply mate. Have not started the t3 yet, was just thinking wheher i should incorporate a lower dose of it to speed up the fat burning process. I think ill probably be better off running a thermogenic fat burner such as clen/eca as oppossed to something which will increase my bmr, particualrly if muscle preservation is my biggest concern.
I saw in an earlier post on koe's cycle that u starting him on a 20mcg dose of t3, could i get away with a similar dosage to just aid my fat burning?

Thanks again for the advice

Use t3 with thermos bro, so use low dose t3 with clen and yohimbine, do 80mcg of clen and 10-20 mg of yohimbine daily with 40-60 mcg t3 and you will be sweet

cheers mate, sounds like an awesome plan!!!

GSP,

Did you end up incorporating T3? If so what was the dosage and duration?

hi Fb, actually only started my t3 this week and I am currently running 20mcg, for this week and will bump up the dose to 40mcg next weeks, and run it at 60mcg for another three weeks before tapering down. I am taking DJ's advice, and will not be increasing the dosage to some of the ridiculous t3 doses which I have seen on some websites. Furthermore, if results are great at 40mcg, then I may just keep at this mark.

I am also on 120mcg of clen at the moment and absolutely loving it. sides have been minimal, apart from a few cramps.

Thanks for the feedback. Please let me know how this works out for you as I am considering to follow suit.
