Not getting gains

[outcast2]

I have been using 500mg test E- 300mg Nandrolone per week for five weeks now. I have got slightly stronger but only gained about seven pounds the gear I'm using is from a reputable lab, some of my friend use the exact same gear with amazing results why would I not get the same results

could be shitty genetics but more likely you just don't have your diet and workouts on par.

what are your full stats anyway?

 

[Power Cord]

There are several variables... However, my first inclination would be to think you're not eating enough. Can you post your diet?

Lots of possibilities, ignorance and laziness heading the list.

I am 6'1 200 lbs I am more serious that anyone else I know using the same gear I workout for about 1 hour 30 min six days a week I have not missed a day for over a year. I don't eat all clean calories but I consume three to four thousand a day plus 3 protein shakes and BCAA's

^^ how old are you?

don't get suckered into worrying what the scale says or what your 'friend' did.

if your friend is 6 feet 150 of course he is gonna put on more weight on roids. cause the guy is so below his genetic potential its easy to gain just going to the gym and putting on water weight!

so don't compare yourself to others.

if you aren't satisfied with 8 pounds then steroids probably aren't for you, seems like you want to turn into mr olympia after 1 cycle and you have no patience. bodybuilding takes years, its not easy to grow muscle and keep off fat, thats why its so challenging. lets see where you are at in 5 years, not 5 weeks

Exactly. I see this problem all the time. People need to keep reality in check when going into a steroid cycle. Obviously your virgin cycle will probably be your best, and as you pack on more and more muscle the gains will be smaller and you will probably have to increase dosage and run more compounds if you want the HUGE gains. If everybody kept gaining the same there would be thousands of people that looked like Ronnie Coleman

eat more
train less but w/ more intensity
rest more
throw scale out window
judge by the mirror
judge by increasing the major lifts... i hope you are doing the major lifts.. i really hope you are doing them...

+1 If this were easy we would all be on stage at the Mr. O. I'll take 8lbs lbm any day bro.

 

[oxymoron]

I have got slightly stronger but only gained about seven pounds

if you've gained 7-8 lbs but not much strength something is up. A lot of that could be bloat. give an example of slight strength increase?
if you want to take thetime you could list your workout split with exercises, reps, sets and exact diet, support supps, amount of rest, everything. it'd help to help you.
