Why am I gaining on pct?

[tonyocchuizzo]

I just finished my first cycle (14 weeks cyp prop d Bol ) 2months ago...I waited a month to start my pct of clomid at 50mg a day for 40days And i currently have 1week of pct. the strange thing is I am still making gains even people in the gym have commented recently on my progress in the last month alone since I stopped my cycle I have increased my diet and lowered the frequency of training but other than that nothin has changed why do people say you can't make gains on pct?? Has anyone else had something similar happen to them?

Oh also I only ran the cyp to week 12 then it was just prop to the end

That's odd even though cyp for.12 Weeks will take some time to system totally

Yeah I'm pretty sure all the test has been outta my system for quite some time because there was a 3 week period there where I was really shut Down I had no sec drive no motivation I got weaker and e fatigued really fast but I continued gaining and now I feel great I'm half tempted to spend the extra money in blood test to see if my lvls r already back

what were your stats before and after cycle?

if you were severely below your genetic potential before and then decided to start working out then its possible you can still make gains. like if someone benches 85 pounds, jumps on cycle, then starts lifting and now lifts 150... of course they still have a lot of room to improve. for someone who is experienced and blowing past high barriers they aren't gonna keep gaining after pct like that no way. so it all depends.. without knowing your full info its hard to give you an explanation.

if its true its been 8 full weeks since your last injection then you aren't gonna have hormones still in your system so we can rule that out

Clomid is the only thing you are taking for PCT?

 

[tonyocchuizzo]

I was 145 lbs when i started lifting a year ago I'm 5'10 180 lbs now and started cycle at 160....yes clomids the only thing on pct besides bcaas and multi vitamin. I have nolva and letro also but was instructed to only use clomid is that not a good pct?

^^^ there you go.. you severely underweight to start your cycle. and you still are.. so you have a lot of room to grow. basically you did not need steroids to grow at all.. 160 pounds for a 6 footer is very skinny. 180 is still skinny.

now you know the answer to your question. once you get up over 200.. 210.. 220.. its gonna get harder and harder to gain.

Cool thanks for the advice my goal weight is to be 215 so im hoping my body will be able to hold on to that weight with out roids

I would order some Protein Factory Unleashed and Post Cycle from needtobuildmuscle.com or proteinfactory.com and start taking it as soon as it hits ur front door. Might as well order some Bridge from the same place while ur at it and start that when u finish the the bottle of Post Cycle.

Where did you get ur pct advice for clomid only?

This makes sense, but it still seems a bit unusual to be gaining. A 14 week cycle should shut you down completely eh? Even being underweight I would think it would difficult to gain with zero T.

^^^ if he were to stop working out and drop his cals he would lose a lot of his 'gains' .. 99% of guys who juice too soon like that will never make it naturally again because they will become dependent on steroids to make gains

now I do applaud the OP for gaining 20 pounds naturally before juicing so this may not apply to him.

but this is why so many just stay on. if you don't enjoy working out while you are off steroids, then you have to question your motivation as a lifter/bodybuilder. i was fortunate enough to workout for 13 years before touching juice and i believe its paid off mightily at my age to have all those years of natural gains and building a base/muscle memory

I got my pct advice off of another forum :/, why do you think I should bridge? I have some d Bol and epidrol in my room can those be effective bridges ?
