I'm interested as well...what if someone is at, or slightly above fat setpoint, Leptin is normal ,hormones are good, anabolic/fed state is achieved, if overeating/bulking,would it make sense to eat a relatively low fat diet? 25-30% fat cals don' make sense in this senario....thoughts? cheers

Do calorie requirements for muscle growth change up, or down when one is around their fat setpoint, assuming one is in an anabolic state due to normal/high leptin levels? ..eg. if someone is has started bulking from a lower bodyfat at fairly high cals, once they hit thier fat setpoint again does...

keeb, yeah i'm doin that. (x2/day) yep, doin that too,I've really been trying to milk this cycle :D I'm on my last week of 5/negs, (doin fives). I am feeling kinda burntout now, maybe thats contributed to some fat gain. I'll lower cals a bit on off days........thanks again

hay everyone. what do most do wrt cal intake for intire hst cycle?. With previous cycles i seemed to have started with too low carbs/cals and finished 15s depeleted/fatiged which effected gains in 10s, 5s. This cycle i started hi cals and kept them hi for intire cycle,,,,now i'm in 5s and the...
