Hi guys,
I need some help with putting some serious size during my first cycle.. I am 4 weeks in now (Test E) and have only gained about 4lbs.. I have included below my cycle + assists, as well as my macro break down.
My Stats:
22 years old, 6'1, 190lbs at 10-12% bf - dedicated training for 4 years (need a boost bros!)
Cycle:
W 1-10 Test E 2 injects a week at 250mg/pin
W 1-10 Arimidex 0.5mg tab EOD
W 8-12 HCG 500iu every 3rd day
PCT
W 12-16 Clomid 100/100/50/50
W 12-16 Nolva 40/40/20/20
Macro breakdown
BMR: 1934.34 x 1.6 TEE (activity level-moderate) = 3095
To gain mass – 3714
Protein: 230 g
Fat: 111.6 g
Carbs: 558 g
OK, so if I still have you at this point, I have been hitting my Macros everyday and going above calorie bulk levels by about 1k a day.. usually hitting 4,200 cals a day with the above macro numbers (protein closer to 300gs). My sleep is fine, 8-9 hours every night and my training has been better.. Not where I thought it would be in terms of strength but stronger than natty lifts. Been in the gym 7 days a week (took out my usual 1-2 rest days since I started the cycle), pretty typically bodybuilding routine, trying to lift heavy in the 8-10 rep range.
I'm kind of freaking out that the gear isn't working for me.. Does it typically take a long time to build up? Thought I would have better results in 1 month.
Let me know if you can suggest trying anything different or if its normal to have these slower gains at the mid way point of my cycle.
Cheers, BCOURSE.
