Starting PCT on Saturday after a 500mg/week test e cycle.
Just two questions, one I've asked before, but I want to ask a different variation, and also have a question about training.
Last pin was two weeks ago. I have kept my routine the exact same, but it seems like I am a little more sore than I was on cycle. Maybe this is just placebo, but who knows. I have seen conflicting info on training during PCT. I plan on keep intensity (weights) the same, but my question is volume. I have seen posts, here and elsewhere, stating to keep volume the same and I have seen posts that state to reduce volume anywhere from 10-25%. Is this the route one should go; decrease volume, or keep everything the same. It seems logical that recovery will be slower so a little less volume may be best.
Second, I am going to keep my protein intake high during PCT; close to 2 grams/lb of bodyweight. I carb cycle. On my high carb days, my fat intake is about 17% of my calories. During PCT on those days, I am thinking of lowering protein a little bit to hit 20% of my cals from fat. How does that sound. Additionally, could I go back to my normal 1.5g/lb of protein after PCT?
