Gaining too much weight too fast?

[kameleon23]

So I am finishing week 4 in a Test 500 cycle, by the 3rd week i was really feeling the pump. Strength just kicked in big time in week 4 which i am happy with. My concern is the water retention that i have already taken on. I have gained 15lbs in 4 weeks. I am following a pretty strict diet, but with more carbs than when i cut down to 10.1% BF (hydrostat tested). I still have most of my 6 pack so I don't feel bloated, but I am already noticably bigger according to everyone who questions me at the gym. I upped my AI (liquidex) to .25mg every day but that was almost 2 weeks ago. No sides like acne, itchy nipples etc... From what I have heard, this gear is very strong...and it seems to be. I was just curious if others had initial gains like this?

You're going to retain some water as testosterone aromatizes, so its difficult to cut it all out.

Yeah I'm ok with retaining water, just didn't think it would hit me that fast. I also assumed the AI would help combat some of that?

[MickeyKnox]

Yes, an AI will help curb water retention.

Test 500? Really? Then it's a blend w/ prop in it. Right? Surprised there's no pip..

No, sorry. I am on 500mg of Test per week is what I meant. Its 250mg/ml of Cyp.
