Test/deca concern or not

[gmann]

I'm heading into week 8 of test 600 mgs per week along with deca 400 mgs per week. I kick started with tbol and everything seemed to be right on schedule. Weight and strength were up, and I really looked like I had made some nice gains and put on some "good weight", as my diet was in check. My question is after coming off the tbol, my muscles seem slightly flat. Weight has gone up a pound, but I just do not appear as full as far as muscle appearance. Should I be concerned or am I over analyzing?

I would say any kinda of change in your cycle will produce some kind of psychological effects. Lets say for example, if I miss a meal one day, the next day when I look on the mirror, I look slightly smaller (in my own eyes). It might not be the same degree for everyone, but I would think everyone experiences seeing themselves as "not as big as they want" at some point. As long as people are complimenting your physique, I would say you haven't lost as much as you think. Just my thoughts.

I'm with you brother, I think you nailed it, plus I still am looking at 8 more weeks!

You'll be fine brother. The deca will keep increasing your results towards the end. I honestly saw the most drastic changes in the mirror weeks 10-12, even though the gym pumps were there around week 8

On second thought, manorexia is funnier.
