    Dammit I'm not growing!

    I'm not growing, and it's becoming irritating. I have a few theories, but I'm no expert so I need your input. Currently finishing up Week 8 of following cycle:

    1-2 drol @ 75mg/day
    2-4 dbol @ 35mg/day
    6-7 drol @ 150mg/day

    1-7 test-e @ 500mg
    1-7 tren @ 75mg/day
    1-7 eq @ 400mg

    8-? test-e @750mg
    8-? eq @600mg
    10-? winny @75mg

    HCG 500mcg/week
    femara, liquidex, and nolva as needed

    This is my 2nd full cycle. On my first cycle earlier this year, the effect of taking dbols was readily apparent; I gained weight like crazy and looked HUGE. This time around, however, the orals have not helped me in any visible way.

    Maybe this is too much gear. I noticed that while on tren and drol, my heart was always beating somewhat hard and fast, and my buddy told me my breathing was really heavy when I slept (like when one falls asleep drunk). I sweat a lot in general, but the tren obviously made it worse. Maybe all this hard gear did something to my metabolism that made it much harder for me to gain mass. Maybe there is such a thing as 'too much gear'.

    On the other hand, my muscle definition and muscle density have visibly improved, which I'm quite happy with.

    I've also noticed that, while on tren and drol, I sometimes got really tired really quickly in the gym. I think they somehow affected my stamina; I felt like I couldn't breathe sometimes. I get enough sleep. I've been on summer vacation and don't work. I get enough calories with my diet.

    I need constructive input/advice. Thanks in advance.

    you did a great job of explaining everything except your diet and workout. I can't see any clear problems with your cycle so i would guess the answer lies in one of these other two areas. Also, are you getting enough sleep?

    I switched to dbols because the drol wasn't doing $hit for me.

    Well look what you're doing man, drol for a week, dbol for 2 weeks, drol again for a week. Then switching up the doses after they just start to be felt, looks like your doing it by the seat of your pants, you need more planning bro.

    i'd take a look at your diet and workouts...

    are you getting enough calories? protein?

    are you overtraining? undertraining?

    give us an idea of what they look like...IMO diet is one of the key issues with people not seeing the results they desire...

    How are you eating and working out? If you are under experienced, your body will not react in 2nd or later cycles, then you start shrinking as you PCT one cycle to the next. I'd say sounds like you are much too inexperienced in diet and training to be taking steroids . Also 2nd cycles will not water bloat you or put on as much fat as the first time. Dont know why but it just happens that way. Subsequent cycles tend to actually be more of fat BURNERS so if you really arent putting muscle on, you can actually shrink and loose weight from one cycle to the next.

    Hi, Signed up to say this;

    The only thing I can think of here mate, I had this problem too... The Tren was keeping me awake at night... I couldn't sleep for more than 5 hours or so in 24 which really isn't good for growing. I came off the tren which means I can now sleep, but I miss the eating and strength gain that tren gives me...

    Everyone's different bro but I had this prob and it was definitely lack of sleep...

    Remember that every hour before 12 is worth 2 after...

    To answer your questing since no one else has..... YES there is such a thing as to much gear. Your body could be turning it into estrogen and in fact stopping any gains. You need some estrogen obviously but to much is bad.

    Are you taking any AI? I would get my blood check if possible or start on a AI right away.
