Need input on DECA cycle please

[CaiZier]

FIRST CYCLE
1-12 500/WK TEST E
1-11 500/WK EQ
1-4 30MG/DAY DBOL
4-13 500IU/WK HCG
4-13 10MG EOD EXEMSTANE

Gained 20lbs, still up 10 going into this cycle

CURRENT CYCLE (FRONTLOADED)
1-10 450/WK TEST U
1-10 450/WK DECA U
1-12 12.5MG EOD EXEMSTANE
1-13 500MH/WK HCG
1-6 50MG DBOL ED

Just about to start week 5, have gained 14lbs, but absolutely no increase in strength. I don't doubt the oils but am at a loss. I have been experiencing sensativity in my nipples and added 50mg proviron ED hoping to offset and not increase the exemstane. Should i cut the test back a little and up the deca. Also, libido is almost non existent, on the test and Eq it was through the roof at this point. I am supprised, i was expecting more from the deca. Any help plese???

Maybe drop the Test down to 300 and get rid of some of the issues. Anybody??

The lack of increased strength is odd.... the only way I could see that happening is if you ran this new cycle within 4 to 6 weeks of coming off your last cycle but I don't know if that would explain it or not... it would kind of make sense.

If your sex drive is down you should def not lower the test dose.... I'm thinking maybe the test is not legit if you're having libido issues so basically your running deca and dbol only.... that would explain the sex drive... How sure are you that your test is legit??

No sir- did a proper standard clomid/nolva pct. Then took 13 wks off. Front loaded this cycle to get the oils to come in faster so at week five almost i'm suprised the stregnth isn't through the roof. I was thinking of lowering the test to reduce some of the sides i might be getting because of maybe to much test aromatizing and at 300/wk shouldn't that still be enough to keep my test high. Also the test and deca are from the same source and i am growing to fast for both to be fake and why fake one and not both right. Hell i don't understand this. So many guys here don't value EQ, but when i was on it the stregnth was incredible. (so was the blood pressure though)

[Bertuzzi]

5 weeks into a long ester cycle... It is possible your just around the corner from seeing strength increases.

It is also very possible that the deca is legit and the test is bunk even though its from the same source. I have nevr done Deca before only NPP so I can't say much more thanI have, we're gonna have to wait for some others to chime in...

If you're concerned about your nipples up the stane to 12.5 ed for a few days and that should fix everything up, then go back to eod.... if it returns stay on ed stane doses.

Thanks for your input, That's what i was kinda thinking but thought i'd use the proviron to see if it takes care of it first. Heard a lot of quys say you can dry up and get joint pain on too much exemstane. I will keep it in mind though. THanks again

[CaiZier]

Anybody else out there use DECA alot? Shouldn't i be seeing stregnth gains by now?
