    Is it starting?!

    I'm at the end of week 5 on my test cyp cycle.
    Haven't noticed much yet but over the past day or so my bacne has really started. I'm not worried about it.. it's all part of it I guess, I'm just wondering weather this is a sign that strength gains and mass will be coming soon?

    Yes you can tell I'm getting all excited.. 1st time and all that!
    Another thing I've felt really bloated all the time lately but havn't changed anything since I started my strict diet a few months ago.

    Thanks,

    Dizzle

    How often are you shooting?

    Yeah, you should be starting to pick up pretty quick. Mine does around 5-6 wks.

    Test cyp can kick in between 5 and 7 weeks, but it is different for everyone. My first was 12 weeks of Test Cyp at 500mg per week (250mg Sunday / 250mg Thursday). I never noticed any significant pinpointable change...I just noticed that I put on weight (about 22 lbs). Regardless of diet, test can cause water retention (due to estrogen increases). As I said, I never noticed a distinct change, it was pretty steady after about week 3. I did notice at week 10 or so that I was lifting more weight on all my lifts, but it was gradual.

    Mondays & thurs, so blood levels should be stable.
    It's damn hard getting my food down feeling so bloated in the gut but I manage it never the less..

    That is what I wanted as well...my second cycle will be 600mg/wk of Test E along with 400mg/wk EQ and I am hoping I react differenty. I really like the sound of the "BANG" and I hope it works for you!

    i am on week 5 and i have gained 30lbs, 500mg test cyp, 500mg EQ, although just this week i bnumped the test to 700mg. i do not inject twice a week, i perosnally think its a waste of time, the long esters are active for over 2 weeks, there is no need to inject it on monday and then again on thursday, i just take my weeks dose at one time, same day every week. the EQ is helping me eat more, i am totally bloated too, i wonder how much of this weight is water. i recently posted that i was up to 211 from 183, i just keep gaining, i am 215 now, maybe i was heavier than 183, maybe i was like 187 or so. i am eating 4-5000 cal a day. but yes you will really start seeing it kick in from this point on.

    Ok, first of all, bumping up your test like that isn't gonna do any good. Second, injecting only once a week will make you blood levels unstable even if the long ester stays in your body for 2 weeks. Unstable blood levels equal worse side effects.
