I just wanted to update you guys on my long cycle, its only the second one I have ever done, the first was my first cycle. I have ran short cycles for 5 years, so im trying to decide if I could be making better gains on long cycles.
Starting stats 6'2" 265lbs 17%bf
cycle
d-bol 50mg ed week 1-5
deca 550mg week 1-10
test e 550mg week 1-12
week 1-3 I went from 265-278lbs, started to retain water, only small increase in strength.
week 4&5 finished up d-bol and took arim to reduce water. Big increase in strength during week 5, new vascularity showing. Still weigh 278.
week 6 water retention has dropped to about half of what it was in week 3, also resulting in not so intense pumps. Strength still on rise, but nothing like week 5. Huge increase in vascularity in my traps and shoulders. Still weigh 278 maybe gained some lean muscle because water dropped but body weight did not. Body has a slightly leaner apperance. Could just be the vascularity and fullness of muscles.
I am wondering if the test is fully kicked in I am in the middle of week 6 and would like to break 282, so thats four more lbs, but I want to do this with lean muscle and not just gaining some fat and water. Legs have gained 1 in, and arms 1/4 in since beginning of cycle. Training and diet is in check Tai already has gone over those for me.
With these results thus far I still think that I will stick to shorter cycles.
