20 pounds is very reasonable if you know how to eat and train
It's not so much what you gain on cycle, that's the easy part. It's maintaining it post cycle.
I’m 2 1/2 weeks into my first cycle and am up almost 10lb already. No way will I keep all of that but I’m excited to see how everything settles after all the fluff from AAS comes off after cycle. 170lb at 6’ are you sure you have a good enough base?
im 28 been lifting consistently for the last 3.5 years started at 147 and its been a struggle to get to 170 i barley gain weight @ 4000 calories. i plan on getting 4500 during my cycle and seeing how it goes.Quote:

a hyper-caloric diet during pct is the only way to help maintain and keep gains and get your body to acclimate to its new weight. gaining a small amount of body fat during this crucial time is irrelevant to anyone serious about putting on and keeping muscleQuote:

1st cycle I gained 65+ Lbs. . . . Go big or go home, right?! Nooooo, it was a real bad idea
20+ Lbs. Amazingly enough was keep-able weight, even after PCT
Hot damn! Were you twelve?Quote:
