      Is this due to cortisol or insulin modulation (from the gear) ?

      Im a low carb guy so maybe some of you dont experience this

      Higher anabolic processes require more energy and water.

      But not all "anabolic" gear does this. Soem androgenic gear does this too

      I was under the impression this occurred due to increased glycogen retention.

      yeah alot of anabolics cause glycogen supercompensation. so alot more is stored in the muscles while on. thats one of the ways your muscles get the rounder fuller apearence while on cycle and also contributes to some of the weight lost once the cycle is over.

      All of you that have agreed, are you referring to CARBS specifically? Increased hunger is a no brainer. Im referring to carbs specifically.

      That said, I cannot necessarily differentiate betwen my cravings for junk sugars verses carbs but if I were to guess, it's SUGAR (chocolate candy especially) lol
