weight gain stoppage mid cycle...

[Bigboss12]

9 weeks in of the 12 weeks just a test only cycle at 525 mg/week. was gaining weight steady as this was meant as a lean bulk. i hit 210-212 range and over the last 2 weeks haven't gained any weight. i tried adding in more food but i am full from waking up till i go to bed at this point i eat as much as i feel like i can. i know gains will slow towards the end of the cycle wasn't sure if a complete stoppage was normal or if there is something I'm not considering that would help?

I want to see responses to this as well. Never heard of that before. Anyone?

Try making. Post workout shake with whey isolate, half n half , peanut butter. In other words eat more calorie dense food more often if your stomach is too small. I wish I had your problem bud. I can look at a piece of cheesecake and gain 3 lbs

That's a good idea bulking up the shake.

And I feel your pain about the cheese cake same issue here

Simple. Need more calories start about 200 or so. Even if you can't eat more, you still need cals to grow. Oats and a blender is your friend

Wholeheartedly agree with the advice given above.

That being said, whenever you stall on a bulk it's time to increase caloric intake. A 10% increase should get things moving again. You want this increase to come predominantly from carb sources.

As said above a great idea if you feel full already is to eat more calorically dense foods. Less food for more calories. Alternatively you could use a compound to increase appetite (B12 injections, GHRPs, etc.)

Take you 1 1/2 cup of oats, cup of whites, two whole eggs, tablespoon or peanut butter, tablespoon of coconut oil, two packs sweet and low. Mix in blender, pour into hot skillet. One huge pancake. Awesome macros for weight gain.

It stands to reason if you're 200 lbs and you want to gain 10 more you have to eat like a 210 lb guy. Once you reach 210 your current cal intake is not enough to reach 220. You have to increase cal ... Again.

The opposite holds true for cutting

i understand the eating more i recalculated the calories my body burns in a day and am trying to hit a surplus. i will try to add more caloric dense food. if i was hitting a surplus which i do most days what would another opinion be about why it would stop? i understand it slows down is there any other thoughts on why gains might stop beside food intake?

food intake would be the primary suspicion.. did you change vials? are you sure your second vial is legit?

i didn't change sources yes i have gone through vials as they are only 10 ml each. and I'm at 1.5 cc eod. i had bloods at 6.5 weeks and the gear was dosed correct. so its all legit

ok so there aren't really any other possibilities just need more calories?

Unless you've spontaneously developed hyperthyroidism; yes.
