T3 Rebound

[redsquirrel]

I just wanted to get some input on ANY T3 cyle that doesn't cause any rebound...or, the least amount of rebound

I've heard a straight 6 week cycle with no ramp up or taper is best, and then I've heard that a ramp up and ramp down is better also....

:hmmm:

WOW-

20 Views, and no one has anything to add?

I don't think there is any way to have zero, or even an unoticable, amount of rebound. No matter what works best for anyone, there is some supression(sp).

[Control]

I've never known anyone to not taper with t-3. That's a big no-no from what I understand. I've done it 2 ways. 25 for 4 days, 50 for 4 days, 75 for 4 days, 100 for 4 days 125 for 4 days, 100 for 4 days, 75 for 4 days, 50, for 4 days, 25 for 4 days.

and I've also done:
50 mcg
75 mcg
100 mcg
125 for 24 days
100 for 6 days
75 for 6 days
50 for 6 days
25 for 6 days
12.5 for 6 days

I like the long taper down best. There's not much need to taper up IMO, but the long, slow, taper-down is what will keep rebound to a minimum. Also jump on some clen (if you're not taking it with the T3) or ECA SGC when you come off the T3. Good luck.

i was told on another board not to taper control

I, too, thought not tapering was a big NO. I've only known people to take it the way Control explained.
Are you taking it alone?

Did he/she explain why?

this is what was said

T3 is the synthetic hormone that your thyroid produces naturally.

Similar to taking testosterone shots vs. your bodies own production.

So taking T3 will cause a speed in weight loss. But this can be catabolic and cause a loss in muscle tissue if your not "on" anything to counter that.

T3 also increases protein synthesis. So it can be used at a small dose when bulking also. This will allow your body to utilize more protein and keep your bodyfat lower while consuming mass cals.

bulking dose 25mcg ed

cutting dose 25 - 75mcg ed

more

some taper up and down, I don't

some cycle on and off...some run it all the way

I think for cutting 6-8 weeks is plenty and bulking I wouldn't go longer than 12 weeks w/o a break.

this is JMHO

hey guys this is also there option so don't get out of control!

[FitnessBrat]

Of course its their choice, its probably more of a curiosity issue for us here. This is a drug with little known long term effects - the more info the better. I was hoping they had something to support their theory....

[ByRoN]

let me as fb to see if they do

I guess the question is if your thyroid stops producing T3 when you take it. They used to say if you took creatine too long that your body wouldn't produce creatine anymore and you have to take it for life....

Yes...and trying to create as little rebound as possible.

Interesting facts presented, though

[sonis9]

i don't think there will be much of a rebound if ramped correctly. if any. this is in no way similar to a female running nola and shutting down estrogen. you will be fine squirrel-

[redsquirrel]

Be quiet- this is my board!!

What I'm trying to avoid, is gaining weight BACK after cycling....hence the "rebound" terminology
