Weight loss after Tren
ad
Can anyone provide insight as to why I would drop weight after coming off tren if I continued at same test dosage?
I've lost about 5 pounds.
I know tren doesn't make you retain water, so I'm just wondering what this could be due to.
Maybe lowered estrogen activity since tren does affect test converting to estrogen.
Thanks brothers

It could be due to some water retention.
You'll always lose/gain glycogen retention when lowering/upping dosages. Even though tren does not aromatize it stull ups the glycogen.
You haven't lost muscle if that's what you're worried about
If you were expecting to look the same off tren as you did on, I've got some bad news for you.
That is obvious, I'm referring to the weight loss.
I wouldn't expect to lose 5 pounds street stopping a non aromatizing compound unless I stopped test as well, which I have not.
Was it 5 pounds in two days, two weeks, two months, what? Sorry if I missed where you already answered that.
5 pounds within 5-6 days of stopping tren
My guess is the tren was hogging the receptors and leaving more test to aromatize, ergo the increased water retention. I think you had it right.
That would make sense.
This may sound weird, but the areas that I notice physique changes the most are in the traps and lats. They just seen to have deflated a little.
Five pounds isn't much and it could be anything, and that fast I bet it was water, maybe you had some electrolyte imbalances that are getting back to normal. I got cramps on tren so I know it messed with my own electrolyte balance. Also the drop in water would show as less fat on the bio scale right? I talked to a coach who told me all anabolics with the exception of winny will hold "some" water. Sometimes is only a pound or two but it's important to know it's there.
RustyhookerCan you post your cycle, priors, pct, how much lost, diet currently? Your question is comoletely open to 400 guesses
Ok. I'm on TRT from last October.
This cycle was 280 mg test prop per week and 420 mg tren Ace per week.
I'm currently continuing at 280 mg test per week until after my Bangkok trip at which point I will drop down to my normal TRT dose. I switched from prop to Enanthate and used ester calculator based on 1/2 life so that there would be no dip in test levels.
I lost about 5 pounds after stopping the tren. Body fat on bio impedence scale went down too so it says I got leaner but I know those scales aren't that accurate. I do look very lean and vascular still, but not quite filling out the shirts quite as much as a week ago.
RustyhookerEveryone here has hit on good ideas of the changes that could have been the drop. Sounds like the glycogen load may have dropped a lil pump of delts, lost lil more fat and dropped water.
Even with roid calc there could have been hormonal change due to how your body reacts.
Carbs, food, salt etc. If the drop continues, then might really review foods, salts, water intake.
X 2 and the nutrient uptake tren causes.
Thanks. Weight loss had stopped. I also had a bit of a cold, which dried me out a little.
I think in total I lost about 3 pounds.
I think it was that more if the test was covering to estrogen bring the tren was hogging the receptors.
I look at end of cycle photos and 1 week post stopping tren and I actually think I look better now. Definitely leaner, so probably fat loss continued a bit.
My diet is near spot on, so I think it was just water weight from the extra estrogen converting.
RustyhookerGood to hear!! How was trip?
Leaving this weekend. Can't wait brother.
RustyhookerParty on!!!
Nitrogen retention for me on tren is major. Mussle bellies on tren for me add weight gain. I'm just guessing in the dark but I always lose a few pounds after stopping tren and finishing on test. 5lbs in a week is a little much though...
RustyhookerIts odd right? Hmm...
