Summary

Don't Take T3 If You Aren't Hormonally Deficient There is no point of taking T3 while you're bulking unless you have a deficient thyroid to begin with. Even in that situation, you would also need to verify via blood work that you have an inability to sufficiently convert T4 into T3.…

What's up guys? Today we're going to be talking about T3 during a bulk. Is it a good or a bad idea?

0:07.0

This is going to be short. I'm going to keep it to the point here. T3 during a bulk.

0:12.0

There's no point of having T3 during a bulk unless you have a deficient thyroid to begin with.

0:18.0

And even in that situation, you have an inability to sufficiently

0:24.0

convert T4 into T3 so the first thing you're going to get prescribed when you know you have

0:29.6

an insufficient thyroid production is Synthroid or T4 and then in some instances you may be

0:36.1

a poor converter from T4 to T3 which is the active thyroid

1:10.1

keeps you leaner and such and such

1:11.7

at the end of the day t3 is not um specific to what it burns so it doesn't care if it's ripping

1:29.8

of calories and you're, you know, stuffing your face with nutrient dense foods and eating your

1:35.8

diet to the like on point to reach a very specific caloric allotment in surplus, taking additional

1:42.7

T3 at a super physiological dose is just eating away at

1:46.6

that surplus for no additional benefit.

1:50.8

You know what I'm saying?

1:51.8

So you're basically just wasting the food, so to speak.
