Higher doses of testosterone = less fat
The more testosterone you give men, the more fat they lose. Canadian and American endocrinologists describe the effect of a study in which they gave fifty healthy men different doses of testosterone enanthate for twenty weeks.
Testosterone increases fat-free mass, and therefore also muscle mass. More muscle mass also often means less fat mass, as muscles consume more energy. The effects of testosterone therapy on body composition are known. But are the effects the same in all parts of the body? This is the question the researchers set out to answer – especially for fat mass. To do this they gave healthy men aged 18-35 a weekly injection of 25, 5-, 125, 300 or 600 mg of testosterone enantate for a period of twenty weeks. They also gave the men a GnRH-agonist that deactivated their own testosterone production. The weekly doses of 25 and 50 mg testosterone enantate resulted in a lower than normal testosterone level. The 125 mg dose resulted in a more or less normal level, while 300 and 600 mg took the subjects up to supraphysiological levels. The higher the dose, the more lean body mass the men built up. Lean body mass, or fat free mass, consists of fluid, blood mass, bone mass and muscle mass. |

I completely agree with it, read it properly their definition of fat free mass includes fluids, bone, blood mass aswell as muscle mass. The chances are you guys get water with the test estro.
A little tip, if you stay on test long enough it armoatises less and less, last time I used I think I was on for 4 months or so and by the end I hardly needed any AI's I can certainly attest to the whole test/fat ration, its been really hard since being off to eat enough (which is easy for me to do) to maintain muscle mass without adding fat mass. This is I'm sure due to much lower test levels. Last edited by Mr incredible : 08-19-09 at 01:33 AM. |

Definitely the bloated look is water retention and does not equal fat....

Test converts to estro...Estrogen increases fat storage...Plain and simple. Bloated look can be from BOTH water and fat retention.

If what you are saying is true then why would bodybuilders even be taking test?? They would all be adding pounds of fat on top of their pounds of muscle and we all know it is totally possible to add lean muscle while on test without adding a bunch of fat... |

No actually those are your typical responses when you have nothing intelligent to say.... I just don't have time for your mindless banter so I thought I would follow suit and use one of your lines.... LOL
BTW... Hope things are going well with your cycle and you aren't getting too fat since your on test prop aren't you?? ![]() |
