Long cycle - Cut followed by Bulk?

[White-Tiger]

Hey guys,
First off, let me say I am a fan of the longer cycles (16-20 weekers).

I know cutting right after a bulk is highly counterproductive as the body hasn't adjusted to the new weight and you may lose a lot of the gains made.

What I'm wondering is...would it be ok to do a long cycle which is basically a cut followed by a bulk. That way, you start off by losing bodyfat and then basically work on filling up the muscles.

I'm currently on a bit of a budget (so nothing too crazy). I was thinking of a cycle that would essentially be run like this.

Weeks 1-10: (Cutter)
375mg Test Enanthate
A slow taper up to 100mcg of T3 then taper down to 25mcg at the end of week 10.

Weeks 11-20: (Bulker)
500mg Test Enanthate
Maintain 25mcg of T3 (increased metabolic synthesis).

Followed by a conventional PCT using Clomid and Nolva.

Obviously very strict diet and cardio during the first ten weeks. Then increase clean calories during the bulking part and stop cardio.

What do you guys think of such a cycle?

i dont see a problem with it.....its best to drop BF before any cycle..so if you are using T3 to do that and Test E to maintain it should be OK....but I have never used T3 myself

i would be interested in your diet through this...

just a thought and i coould be wrong...wouldnt it make more sense to bulk and then cut?

id bump it do 600-750mg/wk during your 2nd phase if this is the route you choose to go......or add in another compound to spice it up a bit.....eq or deca.....

I think I will likely end up running this cycle:

Week 1-12:
--Test E 375mg/wk
Week 5-12:
--T3 (uptaper and downtaper included, max dose 100mcg)

Week 13-24:
--Test E 375mg/wk
--Tren E 225mg/wk

What do you guys think?
