Of course, at the end of the cycle this water goes out, deflating you and lowering your strength, a big reason why people complain about losing gains on gear like dbol and anadrol that both cause heavy water retention. When you take an AI with something that causes a large amount of water retention, you will only see the true muscle gains that are more or less keepable depending on diet and training.
At least this has been my experience.
