Day 53, i should have enough for another dose tonight, then maybe 1 tomorrow
Dosage: 6 pumps a day for 6 weeks, 7 pumps for the remaining 10ish days
Pump is good, it worked flawless other than 2 issues, first bottle got clogged a bit midway through, but just cleaned out the nozzle area and it was back to normal, both bottles however seem to not pump great at the very end, so I open the bottle and pour it myself, not the end of the world but probably not the most precise dosing either
some stuff i noticed:
about week 3-4, I started to get pretty puffy, nipples itched a little but didn't necessarily hurt. I looked bloated and bigger, almost like when you see the "before" picture of someone who looks like they lift but could benefit from dropping some weight
weeks 5-6, the bloat seemed to lessen but was still noticeable, I no longer felt bloated but looked smoother than i did before I started, Note: i was not on a bulking diet, in general I was getting back to my regular diet post holidays....slight increase in strength
end of week 6-7, this is where things got weird, i feel like i lost the bloat almost completely, in the mirror it looks like i'm just a bigger version of what I was prior to using formeron, i did adjust my carbs to be centered around my workouts more and reduced my carbs but only by roughly 15gs ie: one piece of toast in the AM...the last 14ish days i noticed the strength a lot more. I don't train for strength but felt good going heavier and still hitting my form and rep ranges that I wanted
Total weight gain: 8.5lbs, I was going to push for 10lbs, but i figured it wasn't worth just cramming in food at the end just to have a number on a scale
Biggest difference in body: shoulders and arms seemed to grow the best, calves finishing in 3rd, stomach looked smoother for most of the run
Libido: didn't notice a lot in this department
Energy: nothing major here either, i know a lot of people who get an increase in energy when test levels go up, i haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary
Endurance: Part of my routine is basketball every sunday. I noticed myself getting winded earlier in games, nothing to a point where I had to stop playing, more so that I needed water much sooner than I normally would.
Final thoughts: I look at this product as more of a bulker because of the bloat and size, kind of like a wet compound. However, the reason I went up to 7 pumps was because i have 2 more bottles that I wanted to use for a summer cut and want to give myself enough time off of the product. I will keep an OTC AI on hand for that run to hopefully reduce any bloat that I may experience. I'm also wondering if anything in this product is reacting to carbs and causing extra bloating outside of the estrogen related sides.
Would I buy this product again? Yes, but I'm also cheap and don't use the budget I once did on supplements, this is the first product in awhile that really had me intrigued, so I'd probably only do so when on sale, maybe $50ish a bottle or maybe only once a year for a bulk. I would think it would be a good test base for a 1-andro...for an 8 week run, that would end up being over $200, which gets a bit tricky to justify
