AndroMass or AndroMyth? You decide...

Week #5 Update: So far I'm still maintaining my 10lb gain and I've pretty much stabilized around 224lbs. This week I set another record on bench press maxing at 365lbs for 1 rep. This is 40lbs higher than my 1 rep of 325lbs when I was off cycle. For this week I've stopped taking a 3rd dose in the evening to improve my sleep, and have been alternatively taking 4 caps in the morning and mid afternoon. I think I like this schedule a bit better so I'm not wired late at night! Acne has been pretty high again and libido has just about disappeared. One thing that has happened twice this week is this real sharp burning sensation in my muscles during my workout. This happened on Wednesday and Friday this week and had me a bit concerned, where I had to take extra time between sets for recovery, though I had an incredible pump regardless. Any muscle group that I trained in the upper body had this same burning sensation. Does anyone have any idea on what this may be? I thought I had something similar in my first Andromass cycle at the beginning of week 3, right before the strength gains were noticeable. Also, this week I have been real moody and aggresive towards others, which is a side effect I haven't really had yet.

Congrats on the PR! Sorry to hear about the sides. I am not quite sure I am familiar with the sensation you described in your muscles as a side effect.
 
I was training chest/back/arms when this happened, and come to think of it this was after I completed my massive bench press. It felt like a huge build-up of acid running through my muscles with an insane pump afterwards. It didn't affect my strength it was just uncomfortable and caused me to take longer rest periods between sets. The only thing I can think of is perhaps I was dehydrated...

I just completed 6 weeks and I'm debating on extending this to 8 weeks. I just broke another PR last night with a barbell curl of 170lbsx2, and I'm still feeling the affects of AndroMass with crazy pumps! I don't know if everyone else experiences this on AndroMass but usually 3 hours after taking a dose, I can feel my muscles literally swell up. I've found that is the perfect time frame to hit the weights for the next 2 hours thereafter.
 
I know that my forearms take a major pounding while I'm doing a lot of max effort work and I get cramp-like contractions in my brachialis and they are very painful.

Week #8: I ended my Andromass cycle early after the 6th week when I pulled a chest muscle on the bench press! I was going for a new record of 375lbs on bench and I felt a slight tear deep in my pec, and I was sore for about a week afterwards. I've been in PCT now for about 15 days with TCF+TRS and I've dropped from about 224lbs to 218lbs which I assume was water weight, so I'm up still about 5lbs roughly from when I started. Overall this last cycle of 8 caps/day was pretty damn good strengthwise and I'll probably run it again similarly next year, except I'll skip the dose at night and just take 4 capsules in the morning and 4 in the late afternoon for 6 weeks. One observation from this last cycle is my libido majorly crashed and is barely recovering now in PCT. Also with the increased dosage, I can definitely say I've needed more rest and at times may have been borderline lethargic in the mornings. I'm certain I've packed on a few more pounds of muscle so overall I'm satisfied with this run! I'm going to finish PCT here in 2 more weeks, and then take the rest of the year off recovering until I get my bloodwork taken and annual physical done. Then, it's AndroBulk hulk-monster time beginning of January! The only bummer about coming off of Andromass is losing that extra fullness and 24/7 pump in the muscles which really makes a difference in my own appearance.
 
im sorry to hear that, but just out of curiosity, did you take time off from working out completely for those 2 weeks or so or did you just quit working chest? i find if i pull a muscle, go out of town, get sick (obviously) or otherwise dont workout when i usually would that i lose more weight than normal too...i guess because i cut back on the calories when im not training, and may end up cutting back too far.

hope you log AB, id be interested in hearing about it
 
No, I didn't take time off from working out completely. I just worked my chest with different exercises and took time off of bench press, but I have still been weight training 5 days/week. The first week off of Andromass I lost 2lbs, and the following week another 4lbs came off. It was pretty obvious it was water weight as I lost all that water retention around my waistline. The same exact thing happened during my first AM cycle so I expected to lose that excess weight. My chest is just about healed and I'm feeling pretty good in the gym. In hindsight, I should have allowed more rest time between my chest workouts and cycled more high-rep/low weight sets to avoid overtraining. Still, I'm damn happy I set a PR of 365lbs on bench last month on AM and I can't wait to see how AndroBulk treats me next year! No doubt, Andromass is a KILLER product and it's a bummer to stop taking it...
 
thats awesome to hear.. i cant wait to give it a shot, just really upset were actually gonna have to pay the full $300 this go-round.
 
are you kidding, this is a great deal and legal too, wow!!!!!!!

...had to detach my lips from PP's a$$ to say that.

To quote an AM logger:

i have 5 more days left on AM, as i might as well finish the bottle. HOWEVER a total weight gain of 11lb while getting leaner, leaves me VERY VERY impressed at the end of the cycle. ill keep you posted on how my pct goes, there is no doubt ill use this product again, ive heard many people complain about money with this product, as if the bodybuilding lifestyle is a cheap one anyway? MONEY WELL SPENT IMO

I would like to see how much of the 11lbs that this person keeps after 2-3 weeks of PCT. To be completely honest and realistic, my first cycle I kept about 8lbs of mass, and my 2nd cycle has been another 5-6lbs so far just ending PCT. I think it is waaaaay premature for someone to cite their gains until they are off of Andromass for a bit. Just my .02.

This is typical with any cycle

x100000.....maintaining gains from any cycle has nothing to do with the compounds..........drier/lean mass compounds may lend a hand to this only because the gains are smaller less dramatic than methylated oral bulking agents

One thing that so many people forget is that you have to always increase your calories since your maintenance level has risen from the increased mass. If you started at 200 lbs and were eating 4000kcals to maintain, you can't expect to eat the same amount if you got up to 215 on a cycle.

Incredibly true, and ignorance of it is incredibly common.
