One month into TEST E (12 weeks) + DBOL (4 weeks) - Massive 36lbs weight gain!

its mostly water retention friend. It pretty crazy weight gain tho i must admit.. no strenght gains at all? even with dbol? your test E is soon gonna be at peak lvl.. so yeah you should see more MUSCLE gains as you go on.. I would personally extend the cycle to 10-12 weeks... You will lose weight when uyou will discontinue Dbol but its just water no worries
 
Oh Dear. It sucks then. I'm loving all this weight gain haha ;-) I haven't seen any dramatic increase in strength no which is rather strange right. And... My Cycle is 12 weeks long.

Yeah, that's a huge increase in, but it's water mostly abd so dramatic because of how small you were when you started. You should have got up to 190 before starting, but to late now. When you stop the dbol then you'll lose a lot of water weight, but you'll continue to gain lean mass. The test should be fully kicked in within another week. Enjoy abd be safe. Make sure you're running an ai throughout your entire cycle. Didn't matter if you show sides or not. Ai is meant to prevent a fire so don't wait until there is a fire and then try to put it out. If you aren't running an ai then thay would explain the dramatic weight gain. Good luck
 
get some bloodwork please ...

and how much over maintnence are you eating to have put on that much weight...

once again get bloodwork it looks like your AI is bunk to me..
 
what kind of bloodwork should I be getting if there's a specific one to show all the hormonal changes ?
I'm eating over 4000kcals/ 300g protein daily. Carbs mostly from Oats shake throughout the day.

Thanks for the reply! I'm running Arimidex 0.5 daily. I'm going to get some bloodwork as advised to check whether dex is bunk though as well as for the test. Do you think I will lose most of this gain ?
 
Yes I think you'll lose most of the weight but extend the cycle to 12weeks and you can put on some good keepable gains.
There's lots of water that stores intramuscularly so you won't always look like you're holding tons of water.

Also if you've just recently gone from eating low carb to high carb that could make a big shift in water weight as well but these gains/loses can mess with you psychologically.
 
thats a HUGE amount of weight, its probably largely water as everyone else stated. I too would recommend getting your bloodwork done and let us know what it looks like. Ive been on Test phenyl prop, EQ, Deca, and dbol as a kick starter for 3 weeks tomorrow and havnet gained anything to speak of, something seems strange about your gains to me unless you really upped the crap out of your cal intake, in which case it would still be water and fat.
 
Did you take before pics??? If so I'm very interested to see the before and 36 lbs later pics.. Cheers
 
I've just completed the 4 weeks cycle on dbol and from last week I gained another 1.0 kg so that makes it 38lbs ish for the whole cycle. Got my
blood pressure checked today and it's pretty normal. Even though I know it's mostly water gain I'm so impressed by this staggering weight increase. My trousers don't fit anymore around my thighs ;) Hope I can keep at least 1/3 of the gains though. My calories intake has been 4000 kcal daily and 300g of protein. Carbs massively coming from Oats shake!
 
.5mg daily? That sounds a bit much are you gonna lower it when you come off the Dbol?

yeah I've been taking roughly 1/3 of the 1mg pill now. No sides effects wow! few spots on my back and chest but I think it is because the TEST E is starting to "kick" in now. All good ;)

I did yeah mate. Will post soon! I'm so gonna be judged around here as I started the cycle pretty "skinny" 77kgs now I'm 94kg(ish) only a month later! I kow it's mostly water but I know I'm deff gonna keep at least 30% of it. The strength increase also has been crazy! So I don't regret starting this kick start cycle! ;))

Carbs massively coming from Oats shake! The gains came to a plateau this final week though but it increased drastically few days after the first week! I thought the scale at the gym was broken lol
 
U have any before and now pics bro?, def get a better idea with pics
Just by guessing tho being 170lbs at the start eating 4000 cals a days your tdee probably sits around the 2700-2800 mark, so eating over 1000 cals a day over maintanence will put weight on anybody
