test not kicking in..

[matttx]

im on my 4th week of test e 500mg/wk and i havent noticed any strength or gains from it what so ever. my diet is good and so is my training..so im thinking the gear might be bad.

 

[Dr.xopholis]

It was the same way for me the 1st time. Should start kickin anytime now. Enjoy

 

[matttx]

ive ran this same cycle before..and never recall it taking this long to kick in.

 

[Dr.xopholis]

Sorry. Thought it was your 1st. Don't know what to say. 4wks is the longest I've ever taken to get the full affect. Sounds like you might have some junk. Did you get it from the same source? Give it another week is all I can think of. But hell, you should have felt something by now. Sorry partner...

How are the boys downstairs, any shrinkage?

 

[matttx]

i ordered from a good source.. same as i always have. so i figured it would be good. im going to give it another week or two for sure.

theres a little shrinkage..and my libido seems to be higher than normal..so i dont know.

only thing i can think of its underdosed but u said u got it from a good source. usually by wk 3/4 tops it starts kicking in for me.

hopefully it aint bunk.

what brand dvd?

 

[matttx]

stealth...would it be okay to bump up the dosages?

 

[triathloncoach]

Bump the dosage

If the stuff is not working (IMO of course) I would take the loss and throw it away. Why increase a product that isn't what it claims to be. I would also contact your supplier and explain that you have bought from them before, you know what their products should do, and this one is not working. I'd ask for a replacement. How could they say no? I think we'd all be interested to hear about good customer service. or bad.

 

[j8282]

Honestly I would wait it out bro, I had something like this happen to me too. Felt I wasnt getting anywhere then boom It all came together. Atleast wait 6 weeks.

Post up a sample day of your diet and your weekly training program as well as some body stats. We need some more info to get a better idea of where you are at...

im with phil, so i have everything in check.


my last cycles :
1. 300mg/wk test prop 10wks
2. 500mg/wk test e 10wks
3. 300mg/wk test prop 10wks

4th cycle would be this one with test e @ 500mg/wk

i think ill run the same dosages till wk 6..if nothing happens ill def. contact my supplier.

the reason why i think its not working. i was benching 335lbx5 as i usually do and i could barely do it..usually on a cycle u dont fall back..you more forward in progress.

 

[hardheaded]

test all you taking? Funny thing with me is I front loaded with Dbol and didn't really feel much strength gains, then when I hit week 3, all in one week I went up bout 20 pounds on my 6 rep sets.. and I dropped a crap load of water weight that I gained with the dbol..

 

[UncleMings]

stealth...would it be okay to bump up the dosages?

IMO i never liked stealth. i didnt see much gains from stealth.ran some test e of the stuff myself. I know of people who praise it. then u will find people who hate the quality. hopefully things work out for u.

 

[matttx]

i went and head and order more dvds..going to try a different brand. im going to push this stuff for another 2-3 weks and if it doesnt kick in ill just switch over to the stuff.

It has happen to me and even if I up to 700 not very much happened.
I too thought it was the dvd .
However , It was how much I “wasn’t” eating and my work outs.

I would image that even if you are vet at this, you may just not have adapted you diet and exercise to facilitate growth .
This happen to me years back ,even despite the fact that I had been doing it for 20 years .
I really had to starting eating like a pig before anything noticeable happen .
It wasn’t normal for me to eat that much, I had to nearly force feed myself.
My body didn’t tell me it needed more.
I also had to change the set/rep range ,I had to go heavy with less reps.
I’m sure this is academic to most of you guys and gals on this board.
But me being a non-completive in the garage BB’er for thirty plus years I’ve had to try to find out what works for me on my own.
Oh Yes ! Water ,water and more water .
Lack of proper hydration will screw me/you up as well.
It totally amazes me how much water a person need when trying to grow.
I never got thirsty enough to satisfy what my body needed for growth .
You body is a silent partner when you put it the ringer like we do with the dvd .
You may think your eating enough, exercising properly and drinking enough , but I would be willing to bet that those three things and the main reasons for failure
Oh well !
As usual , I’m not sure if I’ve been any help at all .
All I know is I’ve had it happen to me and this is how I over came it .

Hot Rocks
Rock On !

PS:I see your with Phil, and what an advantage you have.
I don’t want to get Phil freaked out at me again.
Cause he know his stuff obviously .
Nevertheless , I would still have to try and adjust my food and water .
It is strange how the human body has multitude of similarities and still have many differences .

mattx, I've never not gained strength by week four unless I was dropping weight on purpose and test e. Everyone can react different, but by week four I'm always on the rise.

 

[matttx]

feels like my strength is starting to come up now...almost the end of week 4. well see what week 5 does....
