Gained 30 pounds!!
I gained 30 pounds in the first 8 weeks of my 400mg test and 300 mg deca cycle (10 weeks total, but last 2 weeks didn't show much gain).
What would your guys best guess be for how much weight I will be able to retain of that gain? I was about 160, now about 190. 25 years old. Work out 4 times a week pretty hard. Good diet, and I will do all that I can to keep on it after the cycle.
Just curious if I am looking at keeping only 10 pounds of it, or more like 20 pounds. Also, if I put on a little fat in my mid-area during this cycle.. will that easily go away.. or will I have to work that off?
thanks for any guesses! I will keep everyone updated.

if you gained 30 lbs off of test and deca , just stay in the gym and you can expect to keep 20lbs or more of this, most of the weight you will lose is going to be water. Just keep your diet in check, and you can expect to keep 65-80% of your weight, depending on your body. Nice gains though, just don't let up, and get some supplements for off cycle. Good Luck.

Started the cycle, a stack no doubt, at 160 lbs, huh? Are you 5' tall or shorter?

If you've lifted and eaten right and gone from 135 lbs to 200 lbs, then that's great.

I you were 145 and went to 195, that is A Lot of fat gained. What did your diet consist of? How much of your weight gained was muscle? I was not upset about your comment, but it is hard to judge someones progress without knowing more about the situation. I have no idea what Speak's diet, training or cycle experience is/was, So wouldn't you say it's hard to critique him?
Apologize for the hijack, For Amature225. You need to get your PCT in order, and really concentrate on your diet and training to maintain your gains. Count on 15-20lbs kept as a good goal.

Easy gains come when you first get your diet and whatnot in order. I got to 185 pretty easy. The climb to 190-195 has taken just as long as the climb from 145 to 185.

Hey, I met a guy that is only 175 lbs last week and he damn strong; 600+ lbs for deads, etc. So yeah, it is possible.
But damn, 160 lbs at 5'10"....that's just so damn small.

Good for you, I just find it near impossible to put on 40-50lbs of muscle in under a year. I am sure that almost half would be fat. Sometimes it is hard to tell unless you have the appropriate BF calipers to see. Then again, I'm just jumping to conclusions... Post up some before after pics.

It's a lot of water if he's using test. He'll keep 10-15lbs after the water shed. First time user, sure. That's when you see the most dramatic gains in your life. I gained 20lbs on my first sustanon cycle and kept 10lbs.

10-15 lbs...like Seattle said...of quality muscle. Dont overtrain when you are in PCT or it will melt off even faster.

thanks for the heads up guys. Also, how long of a break is good between cycles? I am guessing I would just change up a 2nd cycle a little. Maybe bump up the test to 500mg, and keep the deca at 300mg?
any other good ideas?
I will post what gains I am able to keep.

Time off technically starts at the end of your PCT. Some people choose to ignore that fact.

I'm so sick of getting bloated. I had to drop creatine out because it just bloats the hell out of me and gives me hypertension headaches. I wish I could use it but I just can't. My diet is clean too. Creatine is good stuff, especially when natty. I just can't have any.....bahhhhahahah

good job gaining the 30 lbs. make sure you dp pct & that it is timed correctly 21 days after the last deca shot. if you do that and eat a lot and keep lifting, you'll keep alot of your size

and dont forget to run your test a week longer than the deca

a great way to keep as much gains as possible while losing lots of fat after a cycle is to run clenbuterol . i always run this after every cycle. I managed to lose about 20 pounds in two weeks while keeping damn near all my gains after my 2nd, 3rd and 4th cycle. i didn't accomplish this at the end of my first cycle because i kept eating lots of food even after my cycle was over. clen is great, but unfortuneately its pretty bad for your heart
