Sudden Hault ?

[FreakofNature23]

Ive been kind of frustrated lately , with my sudden stop in gaining weight. Before i started my Cycle of Test E and dbol (500mg a day Test e , 40 mg a day dbol) ..i increased my weight naturally from 181 to 198 at 5"9 . Ive now started my cycle and ive only gained 7 pounds in the first 2-3 weeks , now i cant get over the 205-206 mark , its been frustrating , ive been at the same weight for over 4 weeks now . Im in the 6th week of my cycle and ive noticed drastic increases in strength but my weight is not going up . .im eating like a horse..pounding down close to 4000 calories a day ..?

[FreakofNature23]

nah i havent , do you think that would work ? ive been training really hard for 2-3 months now , body part twice a week .

I wouldn't get discouraged... I've experienced this and wondered WTF, then bam! gains came almost overnight in the second half of the cycle.

You tried mixing ya routine up?

^^^ happened to me,made some changes and got results.my 2 cents

Are you splitting up your Test E shots 250 each time?
When you took dbol did you take it through out the day?
I am on the same cycle, after my 4th week I was only up about 7-8 lbs. Week 7 about 10lbs. up (total). Week 10 (now) up 19 total lbs. I too was wondering when I will gain some major size, it will come.
This my thread ****RANA's Test E and Dbol Kicker****
Dupa was on the same cycle and is currently doing his PCT, it's also a good read.

oh ok , yeh i took the dbol all throughout the day ...one in the morning .. one pre workout , one after workout , and one before bed ......yeh i try to measure 250 to the tee most of the time , if its not exact its because i pushed an air bubble through ....ill just be patient and see what my outcome is after week 7 or 8 .


i tried to pack on the size so my schedule looks like this

Mon - chest,shoulders,tris
Tues - Legs,Back,bi's
Thurs-REPEAT MON
Fri - REPEAT TUES

[RANA]

IMO I would seperate back and legs, those are 2 major body parts. I have no energy after doing legs.

you may want to try putting more rest in your schedule. my favorite and most used split has always been:

push
legs
off
pull
off
repeat

[FreakofNature23]

oh ok , what does your schedule look like .

[drive it!!]

work out 1 chest , shoulders
work out 2 back, traps
" " 3 cardio , abs
work out 4 legs
work out 5 arms
rest day s
tart over
i also sprinkle in calves and abs in between sets of other days also due to calves being behind and abs i feel you can train more often.
I too grew a like weed wk 1-4 now not so much but how is your body composition? mine is still changing for the better but scale hasn't changed in a week actually lost a couple of pounds but remember the mirror doesnt lie.

[MasterShake]

day 1 back/bis
day 2 rest
day 3 chest/sholders
day 4 rest
day 5 legs/abs (well, abs then legs because legs kill me)
day 6-7 rest

I am no bodybulder, so my schedule is only 3 days a week, but I get my results!
I agree about more rest, and feel my body reacts awesomely to the amount of recovery time I give it. But everyone is different.

On a side note, I always change things up, ALWAYS! some weeks, I feel like I want to focus more on upper body, and just do day 1 and 3 every other day all week, and some weeks I feel crappy and only make it to the gym ONCE. But I always keep my body guessing!

[duggadoo]

heres my routine:

monday quads and calves
tuesday chest and traps and cardio/abs
wednesday bis and tris
thursday hams and calves
friday back and shoulders and cardio/abs
saturday rest
sunday cardio/abs(light cardio because of legs workout monday)

[FreakofNature23]

alright ima switch up my routine next week , thanks alot guys for the info .!. i wanna get over this 205 mark .

[drive it!!]

Also mix it up from week to week even if the exercises stay the same change from heavy weight and low reps to a week of high reps and dont forget super sets and drop sets these 2 are great for changing things up
