yes, they do. I see what your asking now, I think I took the post the wrong way. I tend to eat fewer calories off cycle to avoid gaining bodyfat. If your trying to cycle steroids to gain some size but stay within ballpark range on bodyfat then yeah, I wouldn't start eating too much until I began the cycle. Whether it was day one, or day 3, I dont rationalize it that hard, whatver day I feel is right, haha. Biggest reason many guys gain bodyfat/fluid when they come off isnt necessarily a calorie thing, I think its an estrogen rebound. Therefore, always have some nolvadex on hand, and taking an OTC diet pill wouldnt be a bad idea either when your coming off
