Extending cycle because of weak gains

[Test Monsterone]

I would simply
ramp your dosage up to 600mg per week
add 50mg per day of Proviron
increase your calories by 500
increase you sleep by 1 hour per night
limit your usage of an AI

do that for 6 more weeks and see where your at. I'd imagine with natty T levels in the mid 400s you won't be able to find a doc for your TRT so are you going to self administer ?

My SHGB is already low, so I don’t think taking proviron would be a good idea. Any steroid you recommend besides test? I am prone to high blood pressure so I don’t want anything to mess up my cardiovascular system any more than test already does. Seems like all the good stuff is bad (EQ, masteron, etc.)

your missing the point of why I suggested Proviron .

its NOT to lower your SHBG . proviron has a strong affinity to SHBG, it will therefore DISPLACE a lot of the Testosterone that you currently have bound and inactive by SHBG . so the proviron will put more Test in your blood stream so it can be used for anabolic purposes.
you'll get a lot more out of the dosage to test that your taking

Based on the numbers, and the fact that you mentioned SHBG is low, I can't think of any reason you're not making gains aside from your diet not being sufficient OR your training isn't forcing an adaptive response. And as GH touched on your sleep could def be a factor here.

What progress HAVE you made, though, if any? Maybe your expectations aren't realistic....Idk bro but you most def SHOULD be growing with test levels around 2k.

I have put on maybe 8 lbs but it’s not very noticeable. No strength increase. I was already near 250. Maybe I am expecting too much.

Ok I see what you mean. I’m not very familiar with proviron, and I’m at work so can’t research much. Any downsides to it?
