Injections should be done every 3rd day or 3.5 days for stable blood levels.
Also technically the ester is weighted so a 125mg injection has less than 125mg total test (besides the point).
The average male produces about 80-100ng of Test per week. The standard practice for Testosterone Replacement Therapy is between 100-200mg/week. Most members here that are on HRT tend to fall in the 150mg mark.
You are barely taking above a replacement dose of Test and shutting down your endocrine system in doing so. The cycle you have is basically wasted because shutting down your system for a marginal benefit.
Your cycle is basically the equivalent of selling a 2017 Honda Civic and buying a 2018 Honda Civic.
Weight =/= Muscle, common misconception. 10 lbs can easily be attributed to water bloat and fat. If you are in a caloric surplus you would be gaining weight regardless of whether or not you are on steroids.
