Disappointed with deca?

I ran 800 deca and 400 test for 16 weeks and I'm not impressed at all with the results...I gained muscle, but not nearly what I thought I would have gained.

I've done numerous 8 week cycles with test 500 and 50 mg oxandrolone and was far more impressed with the results

For all my cycles my diet and training was the same, so it's not that.

Anyone else disappointed with deca? Thought it was one of the best mass builders

Ps, it's all legit stuff from a pharmacy so that rules out bunk gear
 
I know I'm on the other end and impressed more than most with 200mg though I like and do higher. I don't have the muscle to warrant 800mg the way I look at things. So many factors though: how did you feel on it? did you feel anabolic, pumps, swole, strength etc? I've gained more off of 50mg test prop a day once than I did off 800mg test e - it wasn't the test, but diet, training, life at the time, etc. Can't judge things by the scale sometimes, but in my opinion if one has enough mass and experience to want to run 800mg than you know all this and I'm speaking more so for the lurkers reading.
 
Absurd amount of deca. My strength and size is going way up on 500mg and I feel that's a high dose. Diet, training or gear... Sometimes is wrong

When you're referring to pharmacy you're not referring to pharmacom correct? Because then it would not be pharma grade. So, what brand you running because shit don't add up.
 
I suppose you can't gain more if you don't eat more. To Be precise diet can't be the same because you have gained more muscle so to go past that you need to eat more then before.

Could be bunk gear as well.
 
I cycle off for long periods and I was told because I do that, not to use EQ because it stays in the system for months... true?

After seeing this ^^^ it makes sense why you didn't gain OP. Let me guess the guy at the gym "told" you it was Pharm deca right? You got scammed ....
 
The deca was from a us pharmacy, doc wrote it for me. They can write 200 a week so if you do the math, and if you cycle deca once a year you can stockpile enough for 800 a week.
Here's what I'm thinking happened. Diet. Even though my diet is the same year round, on test oxandrolone the scale only moves 5-10 pounds but I look amazing. Maybe cause I lose fat and get a more ripped look so it's much more impressive. Maybe for the deca, I really needed to eat more
Just thought 800 deca would blow me up.
 
Makes no sense. Deca will blow you up. Your diet is off, your training is off, or your gear is obunk. If it's actually from a doctor you wasted a years worth of quality gear. I'll be sure to say a prayer for all the lost gains

400mg ew of deca for me is heaps if it's legit. It has to be diet. If you have been eating the same then that is your baseline so you need to eat more. If you ain't gaining it's coz you ain't eating. If you think you're eating enough, eat more. 800 of deca should get you big.
 
Thanks, I think it's the diet,

But has anyone run deca 4-800 with test replacement at 2-400 and see great gains?
 
Maybe you should've ran more test than deca
I'm only 3 weeks in on my first deca run so it's kind of to early but I've added 400 npp a week for the first 5 or 6 weeks and I'm loving it.... only up 4 lbs but my definition is coming around rather quickly and I haven't had much water retention..... I'm excited wlfor week 6
