weight loss/gaining cm was created by fred03
hi guys sorry if the subject is a bit dodgy,i am nearing the end of my test E cycle in 2 weeks.i have not been weighing myself for about 5 weeks.now,i got onto the scale and was very surprised and shocked and disappointed that i have been losing weight.so i took my tape measure and saw that even though i dropped alot of weight i gained cm on almost every body part.

my question...
how can i grow if im not growing?hope this makes sense :blink:

Fat lost, muscle gained.
To you it may look like I just did a push-up... But in fact, I just bench-pressed the world.

lol oupa i did buy one out of curiosity but gave it to my sister a few months back. :woohoo:

@rhino how can i put on cm if i do not eat enough?i weighed myself again at gym and the scales are spot on.

@oupa maybe i should post some pics then you can tell if my bf% is sub ten or not :unsure: a friend works at a pharmacy and she took my bf,so im sure it must be correct.

Fred, recomp is not a bad thing. I just went down to low 90s with an increase in measurement from at least 4 muscle groups but I lost weight.

Are you unhappy with your results? Were you trying to bulk up?

no Mr chapel not at all disappointed ,i have never been in such good shape ever,the complements i get in gym from people are great,i just wanted to know how it could be possible to gain cm on sub 10 bf while losing weight,and i still have 2 weeks left on test so it cant be that i have lost water that much.and yes i am bulking.trying to at least.

@Mr oupa ek sal bietjie oplaai vir jou dankie.

Why I'm saying you didn't eat enough is because you will gain cm and look fuller while on juice because of the rise in blood count but once your off the juice your blood count drops and you won't look as full.
If you started on 10bf and have dropped to let's say 8 with all your abs out you've still only picked up about 1.5kg in muscle in 10 weeks on what I'm giessing is your first cycle.
Look like Chapel said if your happy with your results then great and if your cycle was intended as a cut then well done. if you had have eaten more you would have picked up more muscle though
Go big or go home...
