wow wow wow way to much gear for a second cycle!! no need for the deca and the eq! 16lbs is amazing for only 4 weeks in on your second cycle but half of it is prob water weight...I dout you gained 2% bf you prob just are super bloated! take an ai like a-dex and you will prob shedd some of that water and lean up a bit.

more gear then needed. I would bet most of it is water.

How do you plan on doing pct with running eq longer then test?

What was the goal of this cycle?

Yeah i heard that b4...about running too much gear for a 2nd cycle. But i decided to do it anyway and do regular blood work to make sure everything is ok. Besides, the widely recommended 2nd cycle is dbol /test/deca . Thats what im running only i added eq and decided on anadrol instead of dbol.
As for running eq and deca together, thats a VERY controversial subject. If you run a quick search, you will find tons of bodybuilders who swear by it and on the other hand alot of ppl say its useless since deca and eq work in the same way. I decided to run the two together based on the results i saw on some guys.

Now the thing about bloating up... This is going to sound weird but i actually wanted to bloat up. I wanted that bloated look as i naturally have that dry look. And now whats funny (and frustrating) is that despite hearing that anadrol bloats you up, i dont think i am bloated. Im EXACTLY how i was before the cycle, only slightly bigger. I mean, i dont have that bloated look! Its frustrating because im 2 days away from coming to the end of my anadrol cycle and i feel like it didnt do what it was supposed to do (and its not fake, got it from a very reliable source).
Idk, could it be that i have alot of water retention but i dont look bloated? If so, how could i make sure of how much water ive retained?

Post up a pic, we can tell you if you are bloated. What did you run on your first cycle and what were the results of that?
