Too Low of a dose is definitely an issue. I decided to do a clean bulk on this stuff.
I started lifting at 18years old. Gained and average of 10 lbs a year naturally (except one try on paradeca years ago) until I was 27years old. Started at 150 and got to 240 with a steady clean bulk diet but definitely not as lean. I learned the value of rest, and proper nutrition. My avatar was when I was 22 at 190lbs. Muscles were cold and I didn’t have a lot of mass but I’ll probably never be that lean again so I kinda like it.
At 27, I took a little over a year off and lost a ton of weight. I got down to about 175. I used to eat about 4500 calories a day before I stopped and dropped to about 2000 when I quite. Lost all my fat, but obviously a ton of muscle. I got back into lifting about 1 year ago and using everything I've learned over the years to get back to 200 lbs lean with the strength I had at 215 lbs years back.
I hit a plateau for the last few months and I knew from experience that I couldn’t expect much more at 200lbs so I would have to gain weight if I wanted to get stronger. I wanted to gain more muscle like before but without having to eat tons and gain the fat I gained before.
I figured I’d try the m4ohn and add in some more calories hoping most would become Muscle.
Well it worked. I have gained 20lbs already and not much is fat at all. I thought I was gaining more fat but it must have been mostly water from all the carbs, because I’ll take in some coffee or ephedrine from time to time and look much better.
Now I guess you could say the fact that I had more muscle at one time, allowed me to just take advantage of muscle memory. But gaining 20lbs and an inch on my arms in just under 6 weeks seems good to me. These weight gains didn’t start for almost a few weeks too. I started at 10mg, then 20, 30 and now 40 for the last few days, and the difference between 40 and 20 is night and day. I am now stronger than I was at 240 at many excercises, but much leaner.
Anyway, I just wanted to give more info about my past because this weight gain seems ridiculous considering I thought I might gain like 5-10 lbs. many may dismiss it as muscle memory from 2.5 years ago but I really do think if you take enough of this stuff and eat more, you will like what you see. I didn’t want to stack it because of potential increase in sides.
