20-30% gains in three weeks

[Coolhand5599]

I am three weeks into my first cycle Deca 400, test c 600 and HGH 3iu a day. A the gym tonight I went up 20 to 30% on weights.. It was arm day. Is this possible?

Also how long should it be before I see size results? I am 5'9" 195 19% bf 41 years old

It is if you swing really hard doing curls...lol seriously it takes me longer normally but everyone different and if this is your first cycle at 41 you could see that. I hope your eating right cause those gains are going to need lots of food bro

[boxin23]

yes especially for first cycle. You are high body fat and you may run into some problems with that. You shouldn't cycle until less than or = to 12% ish.
Good rule of thumb.

Are you gaining weight as well.
What are your goals and diet like.

Be extreamly careful. Although you may feel a lot of strength gains and the muscles seem to handle it the tendons may not, especially over 40. Take things slow. Even if you CAN lift it go lighter, do a couple extra reps or SLOW down and focus on control and form. Make sure you spend about 2x your usual time stretching and warming up to help prevent tendon or muscle damage.

This is the advice you need to pay the most attention too

Thank you all, some very good thoughts. My trainer said I have perfect form. I am eating more because I am always hungry. I think that is from the Deca. I am not gaining wt though.

I have noticed my libido has went down a bit. Does this mean I should add more test?

[lovbyts]

600mg is more than enough test if it's legit. Since it's your 1st cycle and you are having libido issue already I would consider dropping the Deca and see how things go.

What do you have planned for PCT?

Well I guess I have not put much thought into it . My Dr. Has me on the HGH and test. I just thought I would take that back to the levels he had me at. What else should I do?

^^^^drop the deca brother....you really don't need it especially when you are on a prescription for HGH.....you are going to be loving life so why screw the 19 nors??

I like your doctor since he is giving you HGH also. Must be a longevity clinic. Does he know you are running a cycle? I'm guessing not. your body fat is a little high but since you started the cycle and you are 41 I would finish it out without the Deca but either way it's up to you. You will get more out of the cycle once you get the body fat down under 15%.

Also since it is doctor prescribed I'm assuming you are on TRT? how long have you been on TRT and at what dose? It's very possible also that it's an E2 issue but the only way to know for sure is to get blood work done. I know myself at a lower dose than that I had crazy high E2.

I have been on trt with HGH for seven months. 200 t aw and 2iu HGH a day 5 daw. Before I started the cycle I had my blood work done my E2 was very low. The Dr. Does not know I am on cycle but the guy I work with at the Dr. Does.

What should I do for PCT?

[gixxerboy1]

but your e2 may be very high now since you upped the dosages. Are you taking any AI?

[Coolhand5599]

Yes, I think it's called anastrolzal or something like that

[gixxerboy1]

how much are you taking of it?

[gixxerboy1]

if your on trt you dont do a pct. you go back to your trt
how much a-dex are you taking on cycle?

[Coolhand5599]

I a taking C-anastrolzal 1.2 mg the day after my test pin

[wizard]

do you mean 20-30% from when you started the cycle? Seems pretty standard...

Placebo effect.
