Just thought I'd share my experience so far for other newbies... and to get any feedback from the pros.

On week 5 of Brovel 200 (Mexican Deca)

Started out with 200mg first 2 weeks and then 400mg since. Wish I did 400 from the start as I only have started seeing good results last week. Using a 20g to withdraw and a 26g 1/2 inch to inject in the delts. No pain at all from the actual injection just a little sore the day after. My arms have gotten the most results so far followed by my lats. I am eating roughly 3000-4000 calories a day and about 180-200 grams of protein. Taking weight gainer to assist with the calories and protein.

I'm 5'10 and was 170 when I started, now about 176 and a little leaner and much harder. My strength has also increased but not as much as I thought it would.

Work out 4 days a week about 45 minutes to an hour and do 20 minutes cardio (treadmill) every workout. I have been told to stop the cardio, but I feel like crap on the days I don't do it. I also do 15 minutes of various stomach exercises every workout.

I have another 5 weeks to go and I will probably do another cycle after 4 weeks off. Overall I am satisfied with the gains and absolutely no side effects.
