The reason for slower gains...?

[SofaGeorge]

Something isn't right here.

You should be gaining a bit more. Either your juice is fake, underdosed, or you aren't taking enough... or you have a digestive enzyme problem.

Some guys can eat protein all day and get no nitrogen benefit. Why? Because they don't have the proper digestive enzymes to break down the proteins.

My big guess, though, is you have limp juice.

Now I am worried, I was just about to send for some of this MexiPharm stuff.

I agree with SG, at 300mg e4d, there's probably something wrong with the gear.

But I also think you could be overtraining. Man 6 days on and 1 day off is just too much bro. Try easing up a bit to 2 on, 1 off, 2 on and 2 off.

I'm sure there's pro's that know how to train 6/1 but I doubt most of us have the know-how to do that properly so as to avoid overtraining.

But make no mistake, you will not make big gains while overtraining.

You took the words out of my mouth 40. I was just thinking the same thing.

Your diet is not THAT BAD, and you seem to be getting plenty of rest. With that diet, and the gear dosage, you should be growing more. When things are stagnant like in your situation, ALWAYS, change things around until you get results, thats the only way to find out what the problem is.

I would start with your training also. 6 days a week is overkill IMO, especially if this is how you were training before juicing. I always start a new program when I start a new cycle just for the extra shock/change to your muscles (you want to hit every variable possible). Also, 15-20 sets per muscle group?, I think that you are going overboard. Yes overtraining will hinder your gains. Change your routine around, maybe give the DC training regimine or the HST training style a shot, you can find more info on the training board. I trained 5 days/wk before starting my cycle, and as soon as I started, I switched my training to superset training, with 2 days (upper body and lower body), with 2 different workouts for each. So I go 2 days on (upper, then lower) then 1 day off. Been having great results. I am only 10 days into my cycle and I have gained more than you (could be the dbol though hehehehe).

If this is still not fixing things, then up your calories. Eat like there is no tommorow, as a matter of fact, try doing both (changing workout, and upping cals). Get your carbs nice and early in the day, and taper off with them into the evening. If you have no success by changing these variables then I am going to guess that your gear is bunk, or you may need a higher doseage, or through a more anabolic in with the mix like some EQ. Anyways, the point being that you have to change something to find out what is wrong. 5 weeks in you should have a little more than that.

I feel as though the gear is legit, since I am strong as a bull, compared to the start of my cycle, and my recovery time is really increases, as well as the intense pumps and constant sex drive. However, I think some great points were brought up, mainly with me overtraining and my diet. I need to add some simple carbs with my post workout shake and also break my protein up, and eat more complex clean carbs. Overtraining, that is another problem, I HATE not training, I always feel the need to get to the gym and unleash the animal in me! I will start taking another day off so I will train 3 on, 1 off, 2 on , 1 off, 3 on etc....

As far as the Mexipharm, I am happy with it, but I try not to really on the gear for results, I try and forget I am even taking it and just train hard, otherwise mentally I become depedant on it. But with the MP test, my dumbell chest press went from the 100's for 10 reps to the 110s for 10 reps, shoulder dumbell press from 70's for 8 reps to 85's for 8 reps, Biceps are up a good 20-30lbs and squats went from 315 for 10 reps , to 335 for 10 reps, so it is working, AND I look a LOT thicker, but I am just afraid that post cycle the swole look will disiapate and I will be left with minimal gains.

So I am turning up the intensity for the last 3- 4 weeks to get some solid gains

Who cares about the scale! Weighing alot is just an ego boost. Care more about the quality of your body composition. You meigh have only gained 5lbs but with a somewhat restricted diet like yours you may have shed some fat and gained muscle at the same time. If your making good quality noticeable gains who cares what the scale says? I'm sure that if you implemented some of the suggestions you'll be happier.

 

[psychedout]

I am thinking that there is trouble brewing with the gear.
Although I think more carbs would have helped with gains, I still think you should have gained more than 5 pounds.

Has your bf% changed?

buy soem GNC weight gainer that shit will put size on anyone bro.

Agree with Dial Tone. I would rather put on 6 ponds of quality mass than fat and water.

You say that you have trained seriously for 5 years, chances are your body is already well developed,s opposed to many people that do a first cycle with under 6 months of training under them. Of course they are gonna blow up (I would like to see them 6 months after there cycle)

You are on 300mgs/4days, this is a good cycle. The nolv. is keeping your water off, and chances are you are not one bit bloated. You are also replacing fat with muscle. so if you look good, and people are telling you that you look good screw the scale. numbers are numbers and dont mean shit if ou cant back them.
