I am at the 2.5 week mark in my first cycle. To date I have taken 500mg sust for the first 2 weeks, 250mg so far this week. The cycle will continue for several weeks with 250mg sust w/ 400 mg primo per week, then just the 400 mg primo to harden up. Gains to date have been unexpectedly good. I am a hardgainer, small boned, and 32. Nevertheless, I have gone from 181 to 199 in 2.5 weeks. Despite eating a lot of food, I must be retaining huge amounts of water to account for the gains. Strength began to increse in week 2. I have accumulated some fat, but my diet has not been all that clean. I came directly off a strict, 3 week anabolic diet prior to the beginning of the cycle, which helps explain the huge water retention. Any feedback or advice? | ||

those are great gains for 2 weeks!!!18 lbs Wow it usually takes 3 weeks for the sus to fully kick in.....did you take anything else like dbol? either way the most water your probably holding is 8-10 lbs..which means 8-10 lbs of solid weight in 2 1/2 is very good gains.. ------------------ | ||

No Dbol, just sust. I was up 9 pounds the first week, which is why I believe the water retention is quite high. I also had to take a few days off this week while on business travel -- seems to have resulted in some extra fat showing up. | ||

Thanks, bro. Now that my strength is just about as high as it has ever been, I feel like the cycle is really working. I am curious to see what will happen in the next 2 weeks since the prevailing wisdom is that sust gains do not manifest until weeks 3-4. | ||

Bump for any other comments. Any thoughts on how to reduce the water retention? | ||

Nolvadex will help somewhat with the water retention.Drink a TON of water also,as it will help flush you out somewhat. | ||

I've been dreaming about A-bombs. | ||

BAsed on where I am now, A-bombs would be too expensive. No to buy the gear, but to replace my business clothes. Shit, my neck is already getting too big for a damned tie... |
