    Up the dose or not?

    I'm taking cyp @ 250/week. Will take 4th today, and have gained 8 lbs with no real sides. My question is should I up it to 300, or leave it alone and be grateful for the good gains so far? I don't feel like I've gained a lot of fat since my pants feel just barely tighter, but my arms have grown 1/4 inch and I am def. bigger without a bloated look. I'm also taking L-dex .25/day.

    250mg ew is a very low dose, infact its the dose that i cruise but that aside. normally a test only cycle is dosed at 400-500mg ew but if your happy with the gains so far then go ahead and leqve it like this. you can always go higher on your next cycle.

    Like rodge said, most people do not dose that compound that low but if its working for you than keep it the same. If it's not broke, why fix it?

    Thanks guys, I'm probably gonna continue 2 more weeks for sure then @250 and then see if I'm still gaining. If gains slow, then I'll up the dose. 8 lbs in 3 weeks isn't bad though is it? And yes, this is my first cycle.

    If your getting no side effects and only gains, why change what your doing? 250mg/wk is a good starting dose IMO. Too many people use high doses they often done require. I've seen many report excellent gains off of 250mg/wk. Starting at 500mg/wk seems to be an American thing. Most in the UK, IMHO, start on doses similar to this.

    If your gains begin to slow considerably or stop, up the dose slightly then.

    Yep, as pointed out this is a low dose (about half of a general novice cycle), so if your ambitions are loftier, you definitely have room to increase the dosage.

    In the words of the immortal Bard, "To thine own self be true".
