8 & 6 Week T3 Dosages

ORIGINAL: marligan

I was just wondering how you would go about running a 3 week T3 cycle.

I wouldn't bother tbh

 

Would a 250mg (1ml) sust every 7 to 10 days be enough to prevent catabolism on T3/Albuterol 6 Weeker??

Cheers

I would generally advise 250mg e5d at the very least.

Cheers PB however the above question was for a mate who is not really a bodybuilder, just doesn't want to lose too much muscle while losing weight. Is the advice of 1ml e5d for an experienced BBer or any person in general?

Cheers

Could aim for a bit less then if he has no appreciable muscle mass to lose. Begs the question though - what on earth is he considering T3 for? Consistent gym workouts will increase muscle and help lose BF.

 

Couple of questions as tis is my first T3 cycle Im gonna use it with clen apering up and down using the 8 week cycle.

1. Not using any gear with it. Im 25% BF and 18 1/2 stone so want to drop some serious weight and BF before a new cycle of gear.

2. I see the doseages are multiplys of 25mg. The stuff IV bought says its 20 microgram tablets of Tertroxin made by goldshields pharm of surrey uk. Anyone heard of this make and do u think I have the real stuff ?

I've got to ask why you'd consider a drug like T3 when you're 25%BF? You should be able to get down to 12-14% without even trying tbh.

 

Hi partyboy.

I have 2000 mcg of t3 in 20mcg tabs. How should I go about tapering the dose
of a 6 week cycle. Was going to run your standard 6 weeker but dont have enough :(

Thought better to ask as I dont fancy messing up my thyroid.


Cheers!

As per the 6 week dosing schedule though reducing max dosage and/or reducing number of days at max dosage

 

Is there any theory behind 6/8 week cycles? Is there anything intrinsically wrong with say a 10 week cycle?

Not pe se. I've run 10 weeks before but imo it's a med that I'm not comfortable pushing the boundaries too far with.

Max usage would be 2 cycles a year, preferably 1 (the cut leading upto summer).

 

Ok, understand. Not for me mind, its for someone else considering using it and they are considering extending the cycle out an extra 3-4 weeks.

First i want to thank Partyboy for his invaluable contribution here, because i didn't have a clue before for how a t3 cycle should be. I wanted to ask, i'm 6ft ~170pounds ~18% bf. I think of doing the 8-week T3 cycle. I want to get down to 9-10% bf, with 4x30min cardio per week after training, not hiit, plain running.

I wanted to ask if after my t3 cycle, will i feel tired? Or have any problems concentrating on reading for example, etc? Can i follow eca cycle after t3?

Exceeding the individual limits of compatibil­ity for liothyronine or taking an overdose, especially, if the dose is increased too quickly at the beginning of the treatment, can cause the following clinical symptoms for a thyroid hyperfunction): heart palpitation, trembling, irregular heartbeat, heart oppression, agita­tion, shortness of breath, excretion of sugar through the urine, ex­cessive perspiration, diarrhea, weight loss, psychic disorders, etc., as well as symptoms of hypersensitivity." Our experience is that most symptoms consist of trembling of hands, nausea, headaches, high perspiration, and increased heartbeat. These negative side effects can often be eliminated by temporarily reducing the daily dosage. Cau­tion, however is advised when taking Cytomel since, especially in the beginning, the effect can be quick and sometimes drastic. Ath­letes do not use the injectable version of L-T3, this is normally used as "emergency therapy for thyrotoxic coma." Those who use Cytomel over several weeks will experience a decrease in muscle mass. This can be avoided or delayed by simultaneously taking steroids. For the most part, since Cytomel also metabolizes protein, the athlete must eat a diet rich in protein.

thanks, i am aware of the symptoms while taking T3. I don't know the symptoms after my t3 cycle and for about 6 weeks after taking last pill of T3.

There are none. I've done a couple of cycles.

thanks m8. now i'm on uni-pharma's t3 25mcg tablets. last year i did cynomel aventis, which was like kiddie's caramels. They did nothing and i bought them from a pharmacy. Maybe my t3 is different from the manufactured one and so my body doesn't use the exogenous t3? or they were blanks? i don't know about these now, because i started them today.

Cannot comment on that pharmacy as i've always used Berlin Chemie 50mg tabs.

not read all of the thread but is it ok to run eca with t3 to help combat fatigue?

Ive been entered a few times by delivery men, i didn't hold it against them.

anyone?

ECA may conflict with your production of T3, but not at a significant rate. I don't believe it may cause any problem while taking T3 or after your T3 cycle, unless there is a history in your family tree of thyroid problems..

so what results you had using t3 hottz

ECA + T3 are commonly run together. Just be sure to monitor BP.

I am on my tenth day of the cycle (100mcg) and for the moment i don't see any results worth mentioning. i do wo's cycle.

Cheers for that pb
just another question would it be wise to lower the dosage of eph with t3 as i can easily take 90mg of eph 3 times a day but i dont wanna risk to much while taking t3 cause of the risks

Have you experienced any sides of over active thyroid?

What is yuor diet like?

No sides of over active thyroid, i also feel very tired some times mostly in the evening. I split my 100mcg in 2doses, one in the morning and one in the evening, about 4 hours before going to sleep.

My diet is:

morning: ~60-70 grams of carbs (cereals: all bran+quaker) and 6 eggs, only the white part

~3 hours after: 1 scoop of whey protein, or a toast with low fat cheese and turkey

lunch: 200gr white meat/red meat + 100-150gr brown rice or boiled potato + salad + 1 spoon of virgin oil

before training: 1 scoop of whey protein

after training: 1 scoop + 1 banana

lunch: 200gr. white/red meat + salad+ 1 spoon virgin oil

before sleep: 200gr. of yoghurt, or a scoop of casein when available, sometimes nothing

I'm just a bit of a regular Joe, not a BBer, was just wondering if you would have an opinion on me using t3 (well I can get t4) at the start of the autumn rugby season to help shift excess weight. I'm 5'9 96kg/15 stone chunky build front rower but would like to shift my gut and some excess bodyfat. I get semi fit mid season, but slack off in the summer. Been pretty much the same weight for a few years now (I'm 27), goes up and down a half stone in and out of the season. Just figure if i can shift the college beer gut I can keep it at bay with my usual routine.
Not being buff in the first place I suspect muscle catabolism shouldn't be an issue/fear. I'd only be training twice weekly (and surfing when waves/work allows) - would that be sufficient exercise levels?
I know its a bit of a quick fix I'm lucking and all and likely to get screamed at, but any constructive replies would be great. Thanks.

(P.S. Am dieting at the mo!)

T3 would be your last choice for fat loss along with DNP and triax. Go grab an ECA or do a clen cycle at most.

Agree. It's not terribly hard to diet down to "normal average joe levels" such as 12-14%.

T3 is a med that shouldn't really be considered unless you are dieting hard down to a very low %BF, perhaps 8% or lower.

 

Thanks. Found my way onto the site some time back reading about lipostabil. From a medical backround, and to my ears, having treated many hypothryoid (and hyperthyroid patients) I'd have thought the side effects of t3 would be less than for clen / ephidrine in so far as increasing metabolic rate to burn excess energy.

I ran a 6 week cycle of T3 until mid Feb. Would it be ok for me to go back on for 6 weeks till mid June with var to hold the muscle?

it's best to do 2 cycles at most every year. i 'd wait at least 4 months to do my second cycle, after my last one. If you are eager to do so, go do a blood test to check your T3, T4 and TSH levels (only if you are not on ECA/CLEN or guggulsterones). Compare them to your normal levels and if everything is ok, proceed with your next cycle.

Well i won't be cutting again till next year so this will be the 2nd cycle and it will be 3 months after the last one...

I'd suggest doing a blood test first.

hi guys
anyone have any ideas if it would be wise for my old man (whose 50) to go on a t3, 6 week course. he is currently doing growth at 2iu a day an a test called tnt (i cant recall the name at the moment) at 1ml eod. he doesnt have a large bf% just the usually bits around gut an tits?

cheers guys

( i did start a thred but had no responses an thought you guys would be clued up!)

just wondering how important it is to hit the cardio while using t3 is it necessary?

Blue_Lagoon3000

Ive been entered a few times by delivery men, i didn't hold it against them.

Cardio to weight loss (and a good diet) is as mounds of food is to bulking. Necessary IMO.

Unless you don't give a **** about your cardiovascular fitness and are looking to cheat and put in less effort with T3 burning the fat away. IMO you'd be disappointed with t3 on its own. Combined with cardio, IME, its great - my fav fat loss compound (well naturally along with diet and exercise!).

Oh, AAS support is needed unless you don't care about muscle loss.

Thinking of running the 8 week cycle on page 1 along with my current 500mg enanthate EW.

Also on 40mg accutane ED

Is it wise to take accutane with T3?

I'll not be drinking etc ...
