Up my test dose mid way through cycle?

[bcboy]

I started my very first cycle of test e 5 weeks ago, and I've put on 8 pounds so far, my strength has gone up but not as much as expected, my diet is great, I'm sleeping 8 hours every night, i was thinking of getting another vial because i wanna increase my dose to 750mg a week, first 5 weeks was 500mg, do you guys recommend i do that, i wanna be able to put on 15 more lbs at least. Can i up my dose mid way through a cycle, or should i keep it at 500mg a week? and is it true that gains start lowering down at week 9? i just want maximum gains from this cycle, This is my first cycle so thats why i stuck with the test only, but I've litterly have had no negative sides except my skin is a bit more oily.

leave it at 500 mg every week , it just kicking in good. run it a few extra weeks if necessary. also dont forget that as you get bigger you HAVE to add calories to continue to gro . the bigger the machine the more fuel it needs.

What kind of strength gains are you getting? At week 5-6 you should be smashing the weights ( i started to get massive gains around beginning of week 5 ). And if it's your first cycle don't go up to 750mg, stay at 500mg. And it wont stop at week 9, you will keep getting stronger until you start PCT, just my 2c.
