    Midway through test/ dbol cycle- expectations after finishing dbol

    so i'm on a Dbol(40 mg, weeks1-4 dbol) Test E(400 mg, weeks1-10) Cycle and i'm 9 days off the Dbol. I started at 6'0 182 pounds at 7% bf and worked my way up to 200 pounds flat by the end of week 4. since finishing the Dbol i've dropped back down to 189. I've come across a few threads on this but i haven't seen a drop off in weight as much as 10 pounds. Now i'll admit i was carrying a lot of water weight. In college i have to walk about 10-15 minutes each way every time i go to class and about half way through the walk my calves would feel so swollen and cramp up. I haven't lost any strength though as i was a little concerned going to the gym today, but still benched 285 5x5 just as i did last week. My question is for anybody with the experience is what can i expect out of my next 5 weeks? how much weight will i gain back? will i increase that much more in strength and add another 40 pounds to the bench or will i only add another 10 pounds to the bench? As of right now i do feel extremely cut though. My body fat is most definitely less than when i weighed 182. I guess i just miss having my lats feeling constantly swollen as it seems most of my water retention was kept in all my back muscles.

    depends on to much, your training and diet and everyone is different.
    That was alot to but on in 4 weeks that isnt healthy. You should be using an ai
    If people can't tell your on steroids then your doing them wrong

    i got some nolva on hand should i be taking that? i mean right now i feel solid and can barely pinch any fat off my stomach when hunching over in a sitting position. i've been eating at least 5,000 cals and thats with a super fast metabolism. (over the summer i ate half a box of cookies every night before bed and weighed 175 at 5% bf). i have pretty long workouts though. i've been doing lots of 5 set based excercises since starting the cycle, but it's not like i changed anything with my diet or workout since coming off of the dbol

    nolva is for your pct. you should be running arimidex or aromasin is what he meant

    yeah i don't have that. nolva is the closest thing i have to an ai.

    One of my favorite cycles of choice is Dbol 4 weeks 40mg ed and Test Prop 1-8-9 eod 140mg. Your strength gains after dbol will be very high, but don't expect high gains from the Test E after your DBOL. Your messing with a lot of water muscle. You will put on a nice frame from the DBOL but since you are using a long ester test your gains will be at a holt until about week 6-8 with E.

    so to some degree, what can i expect by week 10 and then after PCT if i'm 189 now? something like 195 by week 10 and then back to 189 whens all and done? or could i even continue to lose more weight 9 days after the dbol?

    Your only running the E for 10 weeks? Def not long enough imo. Gixxer will probably agree.

    You should run it atleast 12-14
