20g of glutamine
crazy amounts of oils (efas and flax seeds)
i got some letro
clomid and nolva and tongkat ali for PCT

22 years old 5 11.. 7 off and on years lifting expierence.. really toned
i went from 154 - 162 in 6 days felt like sleeping after everytime i lifted/ate
i prolly weigh more now haven't checked

I eat moderate amounts 200+ grams a protein a day
also i smoke trees everynow and then can u say mega munchies heh..
may i add i am 6% bodyfat and does not appear as water retention

Normal...not for most, can it happen....yes..the test is causing you too hold water and by the sounds, alot of it. Watch your sodium intake while on test and you might want to look into some adex or something. 8lbs first week, wouldn't want to see you 12 weeks in if it's from the AAS.

Hes holding 5-7 pounds of water right now... You need to drink more water so you hold less water but don't cut down on the sodium. You wont gain much more water, it will help you be stronger and grow. You won't gain much more water off cyp. Don't worry about it, just eat/train/rest GROW!

Yeah, to grow 8 lbs. of muscle in 8 days from test e/tbol would be amazing. Have you upped your calories or do you normally take that amount?

 

[c0rmega]

i upped my appetite
i eat like 6 small complete meals a day
and 2-3 protein / MRP's a day

It's water and it will level off in the next few days.

Hi there,

Your 22 years old, 5'11, 154 lbs and a pot smoker too.....

(think maybe a base would have benefitted you much much more than just jumping in)....

how bout some arimidex/aromasin???? It would help you with the water retention too...


Good luck

sorry to ask this, but if you have been lifting for 7 years, at what weight did u start off at, because 154 to start a cycle is really low...
back to your original post, i gained like 13 lbs in about 5 days into my first cycle, mostly water, so you just have some water retension.

i have mostly lifted for strength off and on..i am a martial artist
.. never ate enough to truly bulk.
figure i do a cycle and correct PCT figure i would gain a easy 15lbs.
eating around 4k calories a day..
i am really defined 5-6%BF u can see every muscle, and lift alot for my size
