@Kilgore My intuition says that nuking my androstane steroids with estrane and pregnane steroids will be the cornucopia of health
-
@alfredoolivas mayhaps u will explain the meaning of this??? estrane pregnane adrostane ? wut??
-
@sunsunsun "mayhaps" XDXD
-
@alfredoolivas but why u think androstane avoidance is le good
-
@sunsunsun intuition

@sunsunsun god bless you sushi

@alfredoolivas have you gone super low BF before? in my experience, doing more out there protocols can work really well (I lost 15lbs in just over a month doing honey diet) but its not very sustainable.
plus it really gets in the way of having a normal life...
Low fat + soft calorie tracking + moderate cardio has been the most sustainable low stress weight loss diet I've done. Aint broke=dont fix
-
@samson yes and I did that type of diet last year and it worked but it wasn't as effective

https://doi.org/10.1042/cs0600457
found the study referencing the study suggesting tren reduces both muscle synthesis as well as breakdown but reduces breakdown more ∴ it is anabolic to muscle
also says something about glucocorticoids
but main part of study says muscle put on with dianabol is different than normal muscle (i think) in that it is more contractile tissue and less water but im lazily reading it rn
-
@sunsunsun Great find sushi
I think it was reffering to this study
It used a HED of 70mg a week for an 80kg man, which is a very low dose. They measured protein synthesis by measuring the concentration of RNA in muscle, which usually increases during AAS administration, but fell during trenbolone treatment. The tren rats had less amino acids in their muscle, indicating less muscle breakdown and more nitrogen per kg of bodyweights and normal organ sizes (actually less as a percent of bodyweight) it's interesting. to see its' unique effects

unfortunately it looks like if you want to lose fat not super slowly, you need to endure some FAO
https://substack.com/home/post/p-189515524
the trick is, though, to limit FAO to short periods like at night or between meals during the day in order to not rely on cortisol and instead just stored glycogen and fat
this seems to be working for me super well

@alfredoolivas do you think the phopshate deficient muscle that dbol puts on in that study is basically meaning that while gaining lean massthat ca:p ratio being lower is actually ok? on some bodybuilder diets phosphate can be 7.5g per day and i dont know if it is ok to have calcium come up even near that high.
i guess the only way to know is to do blood work to see serum levels
-
@sunsunsun possible that dianabol, 17a estradiol or 17a methyl 1 testosterone or any of it's metabolites are diuretics... authors say it could be pottasium counteracting the phosphorus

Week 2: Down from 81kg to 79.5kg
Did my first hill climb. I don't even know how long it took but it was a hard climb. at least 15 minutes. felt like 30.
Gonna see how I recover. Durian Rider says hill climbs are the best exercise to lose fat, and I believe it kinda, because as soon as I got home after biking 40km including the hill climb, I felt really hot when I are dried mangoes. -
@alfredoolivas be careful, because once again hard exercise depletes glycogen -> low blood sugar -> high cortisol, or you do anaerobic oxidation which lactic acidmaxxes your cells
-
@engineer Yeah I consumed 300g of sugar during my ride, and took aspirin and vitamin E.
-
@alfredoolivas yeah, but now you're supplying all the energy you need to complete the hill climb. Once you get back home what is your metabolism doing now? Your glycogen is still full or marginally depleted and now you're doing the same thing as before when you weren't biking up that hill. So the net energy gain/loss is a wash. Plus you're not burning much more energy passively because cardio doesn't build muscle very well.
-
@engineer Practice always beats theory, let's see how this goes. 1.5kg lost in two weeks is pretty good...
