If I go primo on top of my trt (140mg of enanthate per week). How much and how long will I have to run it to gain 10lbs?
That has many variables...Length of time training, if you are already ready for the Olympian stage, then many years to gain 10 lbs.
Chris Bumstead is an example, he does everything right and this year he figures he gained 5-6 lbs, but he is already elite and has to stay in a weight class. Maybe even losing a bit oif muscle to stay in 240 lb range. But most guys if they gain 6 lbs of muscle after training a long time is a victory.
If a newbie could be done in a year, i am talking muscle, not WEIGHT, very different.
I can gain 10 lbs in one day, but i am 280 lbs most times and as a percentage that is quite low, but give me a pizza and some sausage and the food i eat daily, i can jump or drop 10 lbs quickly.
Genetics is a huge thing as well. If you are built to hold muscle and have not been eating enough and training half assed, then get food going and training going and add in some vitamin J, you will grow muscle very quickly. If you have been busting hump and eating great and cycling, it will take a lot longer.
Gear will make you gain, absolutely, try taking no gear, and eat for a month all you want, then be taking gear that same time, a very different picture emerges, so many guys' say food is the anabolic, don't kid yourself....lol...Food helps with anabolism, but gear is what piles the muscle on that you are not meant to have, make no mistake about it.
Primo is a very very slow process, but a good road to be on and definitely will make the gains stick around when off cycle and not disappear like dbol, or test or many other items we take.
SOOOO, eat an excess amount of calories, about 10-15 % above maintenance and train hard and heavy, low reps and high weight, then higher reps and high weight and stick to the basics, you will grow. Consistency is key.
Now im done as this post has been milked dry with many good advices by the guys here, and its becoming redundant now.
Get to work and bust hump and see what happens.
