1 week and already gaining weight

**Rhino714** · 05-14-2007, 03:57 PM

I started my cycle of test-e last tuesday 400mg on tuesday and then 400mg on friday night for my front load, now for the rest of the weeks I will be doing 400mg a week, Ive already put on 5lbs but it seems to soon to be putting on weight from the test, is this natural weight I put on or is it from the test?

lol imo it is more likely to have gained that weight than "naturally", how often do you jump up 5lbs of weight when ur not cycling... if the answer is often than dude you have been blessed lol

The most muscle you can really make in a week is about a pound so all the rest is probably water, don't worry though, you'll gain more if you are eating right.

^^^if people say they gained 20 pounds in a cycle and kept 10 do you believe all those 10 pounds are muscle or fat gained also during the cycle?

in my experience any weight I gained has always been water weight due to aromatazion. The process of putting on muscle weight usually take me a year or more.

I dont think it is water I havent lost any definition plus im on arimidex

is there anything your doing different for me i think it a subconcious thing when i start a cycle it seems i just automatically eat more drink more and workout harder

**reppedout1** · 05-14-2007, 08:45 PM

^^^ditto

It is most likely water as previously stated. When I started the exact cycle I held water for the first few weeks till the letro started kicking in good. Pinch the skin on your chest and biceps to make sure cuz I didn't really look different but I could tell it was there if I squeezed it.

like growing pains said, a little muscle and some water. keep eating and hitting the gym hard.
how much do you weigh?

**InsaneInTheMembrane** · 05-14-2007, 10:56 PM

Its quite normal...In my first week of testE/EQ cycle I put on 7lbs when it hadn't even "kicked" in yet....my waist was the same...my take is that it's your muscles sucking up all the nutrients and water...it doesnt necessarily mean your definition will go because water retention is not necessarily happening under your skin but within your muscles...esp if you are frontloading, a small but significant amt of gear does "hit" u in the first week...

Is arimidex ilegal or can you buy it from health stores? I'm confused.

**goalseeker** · 05-14-2007, 11:25 PM

H2o.....

**Marty_4** · 05-14-2007, 11:28 PM

u gained 10lbs your first week!?!?!?!

dats insane!! how u do it?!

im currently on my 5th week of 500mg/week of test e and ive gained tops like 7lbs, n i dont think its from test, most likely the fact that ive been working my ass off and not to mention been eating like a cow!!

im on my 5th week and the gains still arent that dramatic

hopefully by week 7-9 ill see some good gains, thats what everyone says

wish me luck

Let me know how you come out once your finished .. want to try a cycle of just test. Am a little worried about bloating though. Have read that some guys actually cut up a little - interested to see if you do as well.

**jerseyboy** · 05-15-2007, 09:42 PM

I know guys that gain that kind of weight quickly on test E. But it's still water.
