Week Seven Of Cycle...Not Too Hot
Alright, i'm entering week 7 of my cycle. Doing 200mg of Enanthate every 4 days, I did 25mg of DBol from weeks 2-5. I still have 4 weeks of Winny coming up. I don't know what I did wrong, but this cycle doesn't seem to go anywhere.
So far, i've gained a little under 10 pounds. I haven't seen anything dramatically change. My strength has gone up, not too much though. Some examples: bench 185 to 205, rows 130/140 to 160/170, military 135 to 155. Those are just some examples of how my strength has increased in strength. But like I said, not a big deal.
In terms of food, i'm eating about 5 meals a day, getting 200 grams of protein in me. I workout 5 days a week for about 1 hour to 1.5 hours quite intense. My workouts seem to be good, I get great burn and everything, but I don't seem to be gaining much.
I don't know wat's wrong, maybe I just need to do alot more juice next cycle. I'm already planning next cycle out. I will probably do it next fall (September 2003)
Here is how it will probably look:
Weeks 1-4 = Dianabol @ 40mg/day
Weeks 1-10 = Enanthate @ 300mg/4 days = 525mg/week
Weeks 1-10 = Equipose @ 200mg/4 days = 350mg/week
That's what I was thinking about for now...not sure.
What you think? About the cycle i'm on right now and how it's fucked up, and also about the cycle I will do next year.

- 10 pounds is not that bad considering the mild dosage you are taking especially if you lost some fat (which I suspect)

Unfortuenly I didn't get my body fat calculated (couldn't find the place or the time, although I should have tried harder). I just used the mirror, and the scale :)
Started cycle at about 190-192 and now i'm around 200 "ish" so i'm not too sure.

Like everyone else I would say eat more.
However, equally if not more important, work out less!! You are an ectomorph and working out 5x a week ?!
Most ectomorphs/hardgainers (usually) should work out less, even on juice, they need more time to recuperate. Try 3x a week and focus on heavy compound lifts, (squats, deadlifts, bench, dips) 5 sets max each exercise per workout.
Sometimes less is more, particulatly for ectos. This is something naturally big guys don't seem to understand. (not that they have to anyway)
It is possible to overtarin even on gear, and quite probable in your case especially. Read "Beyond Brawn" by Stuart McRobert.
Hope this helps.
I'm NOT a hard gainer. I weigh 205 lbs!!! My training is great. I feel good and pumped all 5 days that I workout in the week. My body seems to be able to handle it okay. If ANYTHING, my workouts HAVE TO BE better, and my gains MUCH MORE then it was BEFORE i was on juice right? This is just VERY BASIC COMMON SENSE!
