So you kept most of that? Size and strength ? Strength is more important to me. I've heard that your first cycle you gain the most. Is that so in your specific case? I mean wow...30 pounds? And all that strength. Did you lose anything ? Strength wise. That means you went up about 125 lbs in your bench in a 12 week span. Well according to my rep max calculator.
