Gained 8 lbs on Tbol ketogenic cycle

[hannibal1]

I'm in my 4th and final week of this cutting cycle. I started at 210 and I'm now at 218. I've been on a keto diet but my keto strips never change color... I assume my body uses ketones very efficiently. Is it common to move up on the scale while on a cutting cycle?

I went with ketogenic because I'm on voluntary lay-off so I sit at home all day. I do one hour of low intensity cardio at least 6 days per week (walking on a treadmill) in a fasted state early in the am with only water and BCAAs in my system. I weight train 3 days per week... as intensely as possible for no longer than 40 minutes. I get about 2300 cals per day (sometimes a little more or less if I feel the need) ... around 112 grams of fat (all from olive oil, fish oil, and sunflower seeds). Protein is 1.5 per lb. This diet and workout program never makes me gain weight. I only gained after 3 weeks of Tbol. The mirror isn't telling me much.

Sucks, man. Will I see better results during my PCT?

The mirror is very deceiving sometimes, better to use a camera and look at the changes ever couple of weeks. You wont notice the subtle day to day changes.

I should have taken pics when I started but even after 3 weeks I can't see much difference. Only thing I've noticed is that the fat in my midsection is softer.... which tells me that I've done at least a minimal amount of fat burning but I still jumped up 8 lbs. I'll wait to see what the next 4 weeks does for me.

Water.......tbol made me retain water even though it's not supposed to. Maybe you have d-Bol instead. I don't trust anything but pharma gear......

Is Pharma supposed to be the best gear?
