Higher dosages or longer cycle

[jhkram]

I'm at the end of my 2. cycle concisting of 15 weeks on 400mg Decca and 375mg Test E EW.
Used Anandrol (50mg ED) as kickstart for the first 4 weeks.
Since I'm not very happy with my gains (6kg, all in the first 4 weeks), I'm planning to up dosages for my 3. cycle. I've had no sides on my current cycle (barely noticeable acne...).

In stock I have D-bol, 3x 10ml Decca @300mg/ml and 3x 10ml Test E@350mg/ml.
Original plan is Kickstart with D-bol, and run 15 weeks 600mg Decca and 700mg Test E EW.

Another option is 20 weeks, 450mg Decca and 525mg Test (same kickstart).

So question is (keeping in mind that Decca is a "slow builder") should I go high dosage or longer cycle?

You gained 13lbs in the first four weeks? When that happened, did you up your calories? Did you adjust your entire diet? If not, that is why you didn't gain. Upping your dosage will not do a thing if you don't perfect your diet. Sounds like the gains came from the Anadrol. If your diet was fine, then your other gear, excluding the Anadrol, could have been bunk. I would up the Test to 500mg though, and keep the Deca at 400mg. I'm going with the fact that you didn't up your calories after you put on 13lbs. You can't gain on the same amount of calories after putting on that much weight. You hit your new maintenance and plateaued.

Exactally,the bigger you get the more nutrients you require

I will confess that diet has not been "clean". When you're a family man it's not easy to eat 6-8 times a day, just clean foods.

A few weeks after I discontinued Anadrol I upped my calorie intake by about 600kcal (one gainer drink) to see if that would help gains, and in a way it did. I slowly gained some weight, but both my Tanita body scale, and looking in the mirror told me that tha gains were fat, not muscle. Maybe my trainig is not good enough?!

By reserving the gainer drink to training days I have managed not to get fatter, but I'm not getting more muscular either.

My gear is of the OxideLabs brand. In my country it's concidered one of the safest UG drugs you can buy. It's never faked as the the russian mafia is heavily involved in prduction and sales. But just to be sure I will change brand for me new cycle.

But anyways, as a general question; do you believe in higher dosages and shorter cycles or lower dosages for a longer cycle?
