Results or effects test C?

[RDY2GO]

Im starting week 2 of 500mg Test C today and im wondering what effects i should begin to notice and when i should begin to notice them? Im still on the fence about whether or not my gear is good so i need some signs to look for. Let me know anything i should look for involving training, mentality, and or physical appearance. Thanks guys.

Cyp doesnt kick in that soon. Its anywhere from 4-7(or more) weeks.

How can you possibly be in the midst of a cycle and wondering what to expect? That's supposed to be examined in the planning stages!

How else would one plan an appropriate goal-oriented cycle?

I knew someone would feel the need to reply with something like that. So heres my answer for you, first of all thats criticism and not at all helpful to what i was asking, secondly my goal is to gain between 15 and 20 pounds of lean muscle in 10 weeks and as this is my first cycle i dont know what kind of signs i should begin to notice indicating that the gear is working while in the process of working towards my goal. An analogous example of this is taking say tylenol PM to cure your headache, the ultimate goal is to make your headache go away but a sign that its working before that end result is achieved is that you feel drowsy.

**EDIT** Ive read all the information on the website (same stuff as in that post) concerning test and various other drugs. The info on Test tells you what you can expect to achieve (in the end) and what harmful side effects may develop, it doesnt say what you will notice mid-cycle.

Idk, if ur gonna gain quite that much, I ran test c with deca and dbol and i was only able to gain about 12lbs or so. I know that ur knew to the darkside and what not, but u might get that much, and then u might lose half of it when u come off ur cycle. I was able to maintain most of my gains afterwards tho. But yeah it took about 4-5 weeks before mine really kicked in and I notice the strenght and the weight difference on the scale. I was running 750mg test c 400mg deca and 40mg dbol. U really shoulda used an oral like dbol or tbol in ur first 4 weeks tho, but thats just my opinion.

Thanks Jay. I was pretty shaky on the subject and wanted to start light. Im incorporating Dbol (40mg ED for 4 wks) next week (week 3), would have started it today (week 2) but my connection wasnt able to get it this past weekend. 15 to 20 lbs would be tits but ill be happy as hell with 10 lean. I have a very hard time gaining mass (partially due to bad training routine, which ive changed) so to bulk up a bit is all im shootin for.

You will notice a major strength increase followed by a size increase. I gained 25lbs my first cycle.

THEN YOU SHOULD LEARN TO PHRASE YOUR QUESTIONS MORE APPROPRIATELY!

secondly my goal is to gain between 15 and 20 pounds of lean muscle in 10 weeks and as this is my first cycle i dont know what kind of signs i should begin to notice indicating that the gear is working.
AS WITH TYLENOL...

...SUCH SIGNS SHOULD BE OBVIOUS, ESPECIALLY FOR ONE WHO HAS READ A THREAD OR TWO ON THEIR CHOSEN COMPOUND:

DUH!

How bout those lakers...

In about 2-3 weeeks, you might develope some acne on your face, chest, back or shoulders. BTW, you have to eat to gain quality weight. IMO the amount you gain will be directly related to how well you eat. Good Luck!!

You'll know it's kicking in when you start to notice a more intense pump during your workout.

I have a buddy that just started juicing and I have him on 600mg TestE awk, this is his first cycle, I think he just finished his 3rd wk, hasn't really notice a big difference yet. I told him to maybe add an oral next time, I only wanted him to do test by it self first, since it's his first cycle. I wish I had someone like me and these boards to tell me what to do when I started 17yrs ago.

If your thin and have low bodyfat already, your going to have to eat like a pig.

Your doing the right thing with only running test first, not need to rush into it, trust me.

Are u serious? I was asking for subtle changes only known by people familiar with and have intimate knowledge of AAS. I would bet a good 90% of the worlds population could tell you steroids make you big and strong.

Stock and Micro, thank you! Thats more the kind of answer i was looking for.

well that's really it. Steroids are kinda basic bro. What are you expecting. You will get more boners. is that what you meant by intimate?

hey bro, i know ur new so im gonna fill u in on something.u need to be respectfull to vets/mods/admin these guys r in that position for a reason.and for your info magic is about as knoweldgable as anyone ive ever run across so id listen up to wat he has to say. i do understand where u r coming from and u werent totally disrespectful but ur answer can be found easily by using the search button, i can recall several threads alone dealing with how u know ur test is kicking in, anyway glad ur here just remember to give a nod to the vets/mods they will not steer u wrong

Hahaha, nah thats cool. "You dont notice shit except you get big and strong fast" is a legitimate answer if that is the answer. But the amount of time before you notice changes would be helpful in that case. Intimate does not have to be sexual in nature BTW, it simply means to be in close acquaintance, association, or familiarity with something. The kind of answer i was looking for is like stock wrote,

In about 2-3 weeeks, you might develope some acne on your face, chest, back or shoulders.

or micro's

They contain what to look for and when to expect to see it. Quantitative signs that the stuff is working.

Couldnt agree more. I have utmost respect for vets/admins/mods, thats why i value their input and answers so much. And im sure magic is a fountain of knowledge and I would love to have some of it relayed to me in response to the question i asked, and im very serious. My only problem is that his first post took my question out of context and frowned upon the assumed situation. You can see that it doesnt contain info relevant to my question or helpful in steering me in the right direction to get it answered. And I only post threads after ive searched and browsed several pages without finding answers to my specific question. Believe me i mean no disrespect to this board or any of its members and will continually try to maintain a respectful tone, even when in disagreement, within my posts.

I did a 13 weeker of Test Cyp and did not notice anything until week 6. My strength increased. I gained 22 pounds on the cycle. 500mg /wk for 13 weeks followed by solid PCT. I lost some of the weight right after to a vicious flu (took 12 pounds off me!), but I look better overall now. I never felt a libido kick and I expected more from the strength. I am reasonably sure my gear was underdosed.

Good luck bro...
