up 18lbs but look exactly the same

[rickcorso]

hey guys,

its been 5 weeks since i started my cycle. Im up 18lbs without any water and in fact, Ive lost a little bit of fat. However, I look exactly the same!! Ive asked people if I look bigger, but everyone says I look pretty much the same...and these are people that maybe see me 1x a week. What the hell???!

Thats why weight is a poor indicator of cycle success if you ask me. And its even less of an indicator while on a cycle. Wait 6-8 weeks post cycle and then use weight as a guide, but only in conjunction with BF and strength.

Also, muscle is much heavier than fat so you could have just done a fat for muscle swap, which is a good thing.

Photograph's never lie.

Take pics in phases.

 

[da big thinker]

this is exactly why i recommend taking some pics perhaps each week or every other week to guage progress...

I feel the same way bro.... I look at it like Zygmail said, Weight doesn't matter. I am up 20lbs and I am a lot fucki stronger and leanre but you can't really tell I am "on" and I like that.
