How Does Gear Make You Feel?

[TheyCallMeMike]

I thought I would introduce this question for those of us who aren't on a cycle, or are about to begin one. I would, and I'm sure some others would like to know your personal experience with it. I find that sometimes the basic pros and sides aren't enough description of the actual experience.

For those of you who have used gear before, or are currently on;

What does it feel like?
Is it different, better, worse than you expected?
When did it "hit"?
What were the "signs"?
What does it feel like during, and after the cycle?
How did it feel when you first pinned?

Please describe any other mental, physical or emotional feelings you had.

Thanks, from all of us who haven't taken the leap yet.

I just took my first pin a week ago tomorrow.

I know its all a placebo, but i feel like i've been having better workouts, feel like i have a mental edge.. I almost feel stupid mentioning it cause I know its a placebo.

Excited for when things really start to happen.

i personally felt the same my first cycle

re

to be completely honest.....didnt even realize i was on test when i wasnt in the weight room....only side was morning wood. Didnt feel like a beast/crazy libido or sense of well being....and had blood test with testosterone over 1500 ng/dl.

All that being said, was definitely stronger in the gym and got a bit bigger.

Yeah from what I've heard the placebo can be pretty intense, especially for a first cycle.

Some people say that when the gear kicks in they can feel it throughout the day, some only feel it at the gym. I find that interesting. We all react differently sometimes.

If your so worried about it jus dnt do it, ur not mentally ready, This isnt for the faint of heart so many things that can go wrong and what ur doing is illegal so not just anyone can help you with a problem that may arise. But this board is full of the rt answers and Im sure someone here will have an answer to any question or problem u may have.

I feel like doing one more set, "hitting it" one more time, I feel 25 all the time and that's priceless!

Although going ON and coming OFF can be a challenge, having a NATTY base of muscle makes the difference. I can loose some fullness and still pop'n out all over because I trained until 42 all NAT.

Pack on a base before and learn how to play this game without juice, then go real slow.

I am currently running 285mgs, 48 years old and only Comp BB are looking better in the 3 gyms I frequent. That is my experience.

Great thread. i wish I could have found a thread like this my first time. Because of that, I'm going to be really detailed here about my personal expereince.

First cycle for me was test-e 250 @ 500 a week split between two injections. Blood work at 4 weeks confirmed gear as legit. The following was the time line of my experiences:

Weeks 1-2: Nothing more than placebo. I'm a self proclaimed dork so I did all my research first and could swear I was feeling all the sides and effects I had studied. In reality, I felt none. I learned this later in the cycle by comparison.

Week 3: I noticed a slight change in aggressiveness at the gym, but in no other place. Confidence also began to rise at this point. Still no weight gains or strength gains yet. Appetite increased. Slight rise in endurance.

Week 4: started to see first stength gains, but they were small. Labido picked up at this point as well. I was screwing my wife like a pornstar. Confidence continued to rise. Went for my first blood test. Estro was on the rise (approx 180) and total test registered at >1500.

Week 5: now were kicking. I was starting to put on some weight, but allot is water at this point so I started my Aromatase inhibitor (AI) at 12.5 mg ED. Nipples had also become sensitive. Really started going up on wieght here. Endurance went through the roof. I could have worked out 3 times a day if I wanted too and I was putting enough fuel in the tank. Skin began to get really oily. 3 showers a day to prevent acne.

Week 6-14 Massive weight gain. BEAST MODE! Some water. Ended up with 20-25 pounds of weight gained. Once I lost the water I still came up 17 pounds. I lump these week together because there was NO dount the gear was working for me at this point. The first few weeks I was worried, but not here. Confidence went through the roof. 4K calories a day did not seem like enough, and my hair was growing so fast I had to shave daily to keep that shit down. I became an animal in the gym.

That was fun!

Thanks but not worried whatsoever, I'm just doing my research and starting some healthy discussion.

Thanks for being so detailed, that sounds like a really good first experience.

[Chi23]

im bipolar and learned to handle it pretty well over the years, for those of you who are and just wake up ready to fuckin ride in the morning, its just like that every day all day

i felt great cant wait till next week for it again!

 

[Bullseye Forever]

Honestly for me,on cycle,i dont feel any different,maybe feel harder in my arms and chest,but other than that,its like im on nothing,but i am stronger and bigger,other than that nothing

 

[MeatHead96]

Depends what I'm taking, sometimes I feel like shit on gear. A lot of it depends on where my e2 levels are at. There are a lot of sides that you have to deal with and what not. When I'm cruising on test and have my e2 dialed in good I feel great besides the fact that I want to fuck everything that moves.

 

[Phatbastard]

Placebo affexts are strong and powerfull People should learn to harness that and aply it to there daily life!

I have more energy in general! I'm a Horny bastard to begin with I prolly came out with a hard on! On cycle I am way worse! Exsperience faster recovery feel strong once the water sets in! But I don't get overly excited about any of it any more I have been doing it so long.

I don't worry about gains at any point I just do what I need to and wait fro the muscle fairy to visit me in the middle of the night then Kapow!

Nothing much on my first cycle but the second time around about two weeks in I felt great and made great progress.
