I'm going to give it a try ,that would be 2.5 grms per lb,i'm doing 1.5 per lb of body weight.I thought it was enough?

How many calories are you taking in, ur losing size on 1 gram of test... you should be a bloated piece of work?

Yea.. you will gain on 1.5..

swolecat and a couple of others recommend 500grams.... i am trying.. it is hard, but makes alot of sense....

and i had stopped growing on 300gr....

just my experience....

by the way..

my bench went from 325 to 500 x1

insane stength gains...........

Monster,not losing size.Just getting strong as hell...I dont get the bloat with test like some people.I stopped lifting for 1 1/2 years from a motorcycle crash and went from 200 to 165,2wks into a cycle i'm 175 no bloat,doing 3k calories and 250 pro but my arms lag but poundages are jumping.Or i could be jumping ahead of myself.Its the 1st day of my 3rd week did chest and did some cybex seated dips for example and the whole stack is easy for 6reps but my tris feel small?

I feel ya bro, the strength will come first, and then the size bro.. I'd bump the calories.. Eat everything when ur bulking.. God bless if you don't bloat off a gram of test!!!! I wish i was like that..
