Underdosed dbol?

So I gained about 15 lbs. the first 2 weeks using UG dbol...on week 3 and hit a brick wall. Stength gains were moderate but not crazy. Have been runnin 500 mg/wk of test e also. My gains have slowed down to the point where Im not gaining anymore weight and the strength gains have essentially stopped. Just wondering if this sounds uncommon? Never used dbol before but seems like I should still be blowin up! Running it for 3 more weeks and the UG lab is one of the bigger ones I've heard of. Just hopin its not methyl test is disguise.:irked:

15 pounds in 2 weeks isn't "blowing up"? Were you expecting 30?

What I think has happened is you've gained a lot of glycogen and water weight (let me guess, no AI?). The glycogen and water bloat gain usually is only significant for a short time and on top of that, in my experience, Dianabol doesn't really pack on the muscle tissue like some people say it does. I plan to use it almost every cycle and I love it, but mostly because of the increases it gives in strength, libido, and well being - not so much lean, keep-able mass.

People say you "lose" a lot of your gains from Dianabol but that isn't entirely correct unless you consider increased glycogen and water retention "gains". For example, if you gain 20 pounds on a Dianabol-only cycle but only keep 8 pounds after PCT, then it's because the rest was glycogen and water - not lean mass. It's easy to be deceived as when your body is storing more glycogen than usual, you actually look more muscular and "swole" in the mirror - not fat or bloated.

Give it some more time. It often takes 4-5 weeks to really start "feeling" Test E when only running 500mg/week. Did you frontload?
 
No I didn't frontload. Started my orals the day of my first pin so I know the Test E won't really start to really sink in until week 4 or 5. I just didnt really know what to expect from Dianabol for the first time...I haven't been using an AI either. I am not proned to gyno so unless I start to feel some soreness in my nip I'm not going to use my AI. Started at 186.0 lbs and after 2 1/2 weeks I was 198 lbs. but have only 200 lbs. now a week later. Like I said tho...first time using Dbol so not really sure what to expect.
 
Well, I think what you've got is legit and wouldn't worry about it. Just eat, lift, and sleep like you're suppose to and you'll look a LOT different at the end of your cycle :cool:.
