And i'm not that impressed so far. I've made about the same gains on bulk CEE without the acne and increased aggression.
I've been taking 75 mg a day.
However, i do believe my muscle endurance and strength is going up slightly. What I don't get is my weight is not fluctuating, nothing. it just stays constant at 168 @ 5'6. I believe I MIGHT have dropped a wee bit of body fat, but I doubt it, must just be the drying effects. I'm only eating around 2800-3000 calories a day ( the idea was to get a recomposition instead of a plain bulk or cut).
i was really happy to get out my measuring tape to see how it's been after a week (ALSO since is my first hormone cycle) to notice that the measurements have gone down.
so anyway, max lmg sucks so far. I've got 1 more bottle of max after this one im using now and 2 bottles of ergo...i didn't want to use the ergo but i just might considering the piss poor results.
edit: btw no loss of libido like others are reporting.

I cut my Max cycle just shy of 4 weeks, because of my total loss of libido. The only other prominent result was hardness. My muscles were like concrete on Max. I didn't gain much size, just hardness. I was planning on running a full 8 week cycle, but my loss of sex drive was too much for me. Believe me I got alot of feedback from my wife.
If I wasn't involved romantically, an 8 week cycle might have proved some nice size.God Bless,
Stu

i did the MAX for 8 weeks, added the prostanozol in for weeks 6 thru 8 and methyl 5 aa for weeks 7 and 8
by week 3 i thought max was **** and my week 6 i loved the results, and the prostanozol couldn't have worked that fast

Im 20, but the reason i used max at all was i read it was mild. I'm not touching SD or ergo or anything of the like til im 21+. If anything after this i'll run prostanozol maybe with max 8 months down the line or something. Weak compounds first.

Update:
End of Day 13
Feelings:
My muscles feel hard as ****, but the measurements seem to be down (im also guessing because im holding way less water) did anyone else notice this?
I'm getting stronger on all lifts, however, I have to work really hard to get the extra strength. It doesn't sound like SD or emax where the users just seem to hit higher weights with relatively less effort, i gotta work real darmn hard to see the weights go up
size: not really much to say in this regard
vascularity: somewhat, not too much (not expecting much as my bodyfat is 11.5% and i've never been that vascular in my life)
endurance: up, definitely up.
side effects: some acne (i've ALWAYS been prone though)
libido- still there, MAYBE slightly down, but not really
boner- oh yea baby, it's there
my weight has gone up 3 pounds since i started, should i bump up to 100 mg? or i dunno, any suggestions, the size/weight isn't as great as i wanted especially considering this is my first cycle of anything.

Are you eating enough?

Like i said to him, at end of cycle, you will lose two kilos water the first week or two. You could tell he was holding water, and thats what happened.
So thats 6 kilos of something he put on..
His strength has dropped off a bit, week 3 on PCT now I think.. this is normal. I expected him to keep about 80-85% of strength.. and I think he is/will.
I think he may have dropped another kilo.. maybe.. But I dont think he is going to drop anymore.. or if he does, it will only be another kilo.. time will tell. He's running clen now during PCT, so who knows.
As for fat.. I think he put on maybe... 1 kilo of fat... judging by looking at him. hard to tell REALLY without having the right equipment, but he didnt put on much if anything on the waist, so I think thats the best indicator minus real tools.
Hope that helps.
Ohh yeah, remember to eat.. Alot.. cleanly.. And lots of protein.. Hope your eating every 2-3 hours right? and training HEAVY.. Sets to failure? I mean most if not all sets to Failure right? And your doing all your basic lifts? Do you have a spotter for some stuff so you can go past failure? Your keeping a log so you know how much you need to push each and every session?
You need to do ALL of this, and get enough rest if you want to put on big gains on Max LMG.
Hope that helps.
I upped my dosage to 100mg the last week I was taking it. Its up to you.. you should be, afaik, putting on a nice slow steady amount of weight after about week 2.. you know a pound or a bit more a week.. scales should tell you this. You weighing yourself every day or every second day at teh same time? (preferably first thing in morning)

thanks for the suggestions, yes i train very hard usually in the 5-7 range.
Many sets are taken to failure, lots of sets also require a spotter.
im eating 3500 calories, dropped a lot of water, don't see much in the way of size, but i'll see how it goes over the next 2 weeks which is what is important.

OK UPDATE (shoulda made a damn log)
It's now Day 21, one more week to go followed by
week 4 75
50
50
25 of rxt
Results thus far:
Start of cycle weighed in @ 168 pounds
3 weeks in: 176 pounds
net gain of 8 ( more if i include water loss)
yea strength goes up every lift everytime i go workout, i started benching at 235x3 i just hit 250x5 yesterday and i still got a week to go.
Every other lift is ridiculous too, added 10 pounds to bi exercises, tri etc
major lifts about 15-20 pounds so far.
My bodyfat isn't low enough to show vascularity, but i do feel harder. My libido is fine and i get get it up pretty easy still (although it's more difficult now)
sides: acne, irritability, pissing like hell, slight insomnia now
measurements: most up about 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch at least, some more.
endurance: good, but not great, still im an animal in the gym
i've been eating 3500 calories and will probably eat a bit more than that during pct.
fat gain: slight, very slight, 1/4 lb tops, visually looks the same.
there ya go.
