if you stop getting bigger, how do you know it's  because of lack of roids or lack of caloreis/protien?

Do not forget about rest/healing...I got up to clean and pressing 225 for one clean and 6 reps on the pres, but never could get above that no matter hard I tried...I wonder how much stronger i would get on that lift if i used PED's?

if you replace two meals per day with catfood, you're gains will skyrocket.

replace breakfast with dry catfood with milk and a teaspoon of sugar, and replace your post workout meal with a can of Fancy-Feast.

You have a great physique already, no need to change anything...Accept your limitations and lift to maintain

Seriously, do you know how many calories per day you eat and the macro splits? If not, perhaps starting there would be good, you might be surprised.

If you're putting on more fat than muscle then obviously you don't want to up the calories anymore.

Dude, if you're serious about this you need to have some idea of what your macros are.

i just try to get make sure i have at least 200 grams of complete proteins


for protein i assume it's underdosed so i assume 3 scoops is 50 grams instead of the labels claim of 66grams

Gear is only a part of it and even the guys on many, many grams a week will tell you that you have to dial in your diet. Start logging your food (and any non-water) drinks. There are some general guidelines, but everybody is a bit different, so you'll have to experiment with your intake. Sadly, diet is not as simple as "double the dose" to get better gains.

I would think that you would want to be as efficient with all of your resources (gear, money, training-time) on your quest to 18". Get the diet dialed in.

Dude based on your latest pics I'd say you're still real lean. Lean bulk is the way to go but you still need to eat and make sure you get enough calories in not just protein.

I actually look like complete shit and I know exactly what I eat on a daily basis. Would hate to think about what I would look like without that going for me. I just ate 1.5 pounds of cooked chicken and a small amount of rice for lunch.

150g protein
25g carbs
~10g fats of various types (rice was cooked in coconut oil).

This is actually a decent anabolic halo thread and I'd be interested to see a decent intelligent reply.

if you stop getting bigger, how do you know it's  because of lack of roids or lack of caloreis/protien?

if you are eating 3 solid meals plus snacks then your body has more than enough calories, plus you need to be training at least 4 times per week plus getting enough sleep, if you are already doing all of this and not getting any bigger then its time to increase your steroid dosage.
