take all you can afford, but if you're not supplying your body with enough material to grow, you're not gonna grow past a certain point.
eating what I want, when I want and not force-feeding myself every 2hours I maintain 230's whether I'm running 500/wk or 5k/wk, all that changes is body comp and hardness.
heaviest and leanest I've been was when I was using maybe 3g/wk, but force-feeding myself every 2hrs with food I hated eating.... wasn't the drugs or training that burned me out, it was the eating. even then I doubt I was using more than 100/day or tren ace (was pellet's back then), along with pet pharma test enan and denkall eq at a gram (which I believe was a waste of time).
it's been years since I was running high dose tren.
