I mean after all, dbol will increase strength so theoretically, if your training hard, you should be building muscle. The problem is oral cycles are so short in order to avoid kidney and liver damage there isn't much time to actually build that muscle. Personally I don't use orals at all.
Ive used orals and I dont have any issues with them in conjunction with injectables. I think that there are very decent oral only cycles like (tbol and or var), but I believe that orals such as dbol are not intended/designed to use alone. Moreover, the poster's planned cycle is one that I would never do.
