Test e 300mg to test 500mg ?

[sameok]

I'm in my 5th week of the cycle right now, and things aren't going the way I planned for. I have gained about 3-4lbs and that's about it. So I was thinking to switched it up to 500mg instead of the 300mg that I'm running right now. I don't know if that would work or no or it's going to mess up things ?
I know deca and test haven't really kicked yet but I kind want to make sure I'll gain more on next weeks
My diet is fine i'm consuming about 2700- 3100
Any recommendations ?

Deca durabolan - 250mg per week for 8 weeks
Test E 300mg per week for 8 weeks

I weigh 159

You should of taken the advice form your other thread What should I use ?

Your to young and most probably cause you problems you wished you never had and also you have zero base from 1 yrs worth of training. Learn how to eat and train correctly this will produce far more gains that what your doing because you will lose everything after cycle and probably be left with some sides in the erection department.

There isn't an exact age were we all stop developing and growing because this is determined by our genes and DNA, we are all genetically programmed individually and we inherit our genes from our parents. To give an exact age we stop growing would be incorrect because everyone's genetic blueprint is different.The main development of our bodies is up to the age of 21yrs of age but this can vary between individuals. There are parts of our bodies what carry on developing and adjusting slowly up until the age of 25yrs old, an example of this is the brain. The Endocrine system is a part of the brain what is very complex and keeps our bodies in a homeostasis state. Our testosterone levels start raising and roughly peak around 25yrs old and then start to slowly decline, so even though some of us may have stopped growing at the age of 21yrs old, others may still be developing up until the age of 25yrs old.

I have recently spoken to my Endo regarding this matter and he tells me that the HPTA is very sensitive and as many pathways how it regulates the human body, he states steroids disrupt the normal balance of hormones in the body which can cause reversible and irreversible changes at any age but risks are far more if you administrate exogenous androgens during development, this will put you in a very unnatural environment at a crucial time and your hormones should be treated with care especially in the early stages of maturity. The adverse effects can be erratic behaviour of the HPTA and potentially therapy when your older.

I did ask him what age he would think would be the safest as far as risk to damages and he said many endocrinologist suggest full maturation is reached by 25 years of age and this would also give the HPTA time to be established with your natural hormone balance and patterns. I personally feel 24-25yrs old would also be ideal starting point to get bloodwrok drawn to see exact what your natural levels are before starting any kind of cycles and waiting till you have reach your testosterone peak would be a good starting point, for me there is to much evidence over the forums and what I've seen personally over the last 25yrs I've been bodybuilding. Obviously it isn't going to be all 19- 21yr old bodybuilders who suffer side effects what are irreversible but I am edging on the side of caution what age I advice to the newbies.

You really should listen to Marcus man, he's incredibly experienced and has a wealth of knowledge to be offered. I'm 19 as well and was about to cycle until I posted my cycle and thankfully was talked out of it. Since then I've done a lot of reading and the risk to benefit really isn't worth it at our age.

Also what do you expect from a test cycle? To be up a kilo of LBM a week? Sounds like you're only eating enough to put on a pound a week so you should be happy with the results you've got this far. It's not a wonder drug but it may fvck you up.

Your best option is to stop the cycle run a PCT, chill out and make some mo natty gainz.

Those 3 to 4 pounds you gained in those 5 weeks was from your food intake not from the AAS. That dosage is far too low as a norm. Should of started at 500mg/week

Do what the above says^^ Stop now and do pct

At 19 yrs old your natural testosterone levels are already roaring.
All you need at that age is DEDICATION,,DIET,,,SLEEP and HARD TRAINING!!!
