I was cruising on about 250 mg/wk and just about maintaining 235 lbs or so at 6 foot tall and lean. I was slowly loosing some. Youd have to guess at the dose to maintain, but it shouldnt have been a lot more. Maybe 300 to 350 mg/wk test cyp would have done it. I was trying to keep it down because my hemoglobin was getting elevated badly. Got up to 20.
I think if you have to cruise on more than about 150 mg/wk then it is probably best not to do that because it isn't healthy. IMO you have to be willing to lose some when you come off a cycle.
I think I might have been doing about 2 IU GH/day but it has been 10 years and I am having trouble remembering.
I'd focus more on the look than the weight if you want to look good on close to trt (or a little more ) and you've built most of your muscle.
Lean 235 > Soft 250
So if you do drop a bit of weight, being leaner will make you look infinitely better (and healthier).
Some guys just can't get over what the scale says. I had an old friend that was so concerned by his weight. He would even eat a ton of food and weigh himself and claim he was up to 225 lbs....and say he gained 5 lbs today. I was like cmon, bro. Weigh yourself in the morning.
If you are a certain height you just have to have a certain amount. Of muscle tissue to look big.
Ye you can look good at 180 lean but you will be weak and small relative.
Cringe every time people dispel the weight.. Yeah like we walk around in a thong on a bodybuilding stage year round.
Weight when you are lean correlates to how big you will look given height frame and insertions.... And much more so correlates to strength when lean.
I know this topic has gone completely off track but
My pet peeve is people who focus entirely on weight without taking height into account at all. Some guy who is 5'5 can come on a forum and say he is 200lbs but you'll get ten idiots replying saying he is too small and needs to eat.
Agree that's why I gave height as ref range obv a 180@6' will look small weak and natty but athletic... But yeah be huge at 5'5 or whateverI know this topic has gone completely off track but
