thanks for all of your input, it is deeply appreciated. yes, i dieting well, and training extremely hard also, so i will definately do a steroid cycle. my next question...what would be an excellent steroid to stack with this super test-250? i know dbol was mentioned, but i have a feeling that all my gains from dbol will go away post cycle, so i was thinking winny. this is going to sound very dumb to some of you vets, but i'm gonna say it anyways...i would like to gain at least 20lbs of mass, but i want it to be solid and not puffy. so, with that, what would you suggest to stack with the super test-250. again, thank you for not flaming me and for answering my questions completely. i appreciate you helpful vets.
