Finally experienced strength gains from 1st cycle

ad

This is my first cycle. Just returned from gym and FINALLY saw results. Been taking TEST E for 2.5 weeks. Tonight during my push workout my weight and reps went up. I have been waiting for this to happen since I started the gear.

You should start to notice a steady climb in gains from between week 4-5 to 8-10 and then slowly plateau from week 10-12. The reason is because it takes 4-5 half life cycles before it reaches a steady state in your plasma levels. But if you are dosing correctly you can increase the maximum area under the curve (AUC) for 30-45 days. This means your gains climb until they can't go any higher on the dose you are on and then level off. So look for the gains to really start between weeks 4 and 5 and then slow down between 10-12 unless you up your dose towards the end or taper off with a shorter ester.

Solid information for him but upping the dose on a first cycle is not recommended. Better safe then sorry.

Im on week 8 now. Took me til about week 4-5 to start noticing small gains and strength... I was starting to question my dosage and gear until last week when my lifts sky rocketed and I blew up, put on 12 lbs in 6 days without changing a thing with diet or routine... Your in for a treat around weeks 7-8

keep me updated. This is my first time doing gear so I have no idea what to expect. How much of a strength increase did you see? Are you seeing an increase in energy? This is important to me. I am still waiting for my warmups to feel lite. This has not happened yet....lol

Gotta love gains. But I'm calling placebo on this one. 2.5 weeks? When it hits, trust me, you'll know.
