[QUOTE="madman, post: 185182, member: 13851"] Diet/training is key let alone genetics when it comes to muscle gains/fat loss. The use of exogenous androgens will result in the retention of sodium, chloride, water, potassium, calcium, and inorganic phosphates. Bloating/edema can be common in some. Most of the initial increases in weight gain are water-related whether extra-cellular/intra-cellular. Building up new muscle tissue (actin/myosin) takes time and proper diet/training protocol is needed. Even then no one is packing on any significant amounts of muscle mass using average trt doses 100-150 mg/week. Too many seem to think that when jumping on trt all of a sudden they are going to get big and muscular. If anything changes in body composition..... gains in pure muscle tissue (actin/myosin) /fat loss will be minor when compared to using steroid doses of T 300-600 mg/week. Once you come off of trt or steroids any water weight you have put on will be shed quickly as you will piss it out and the retention of any newly built muscle tissue (actin/myosin) will only be retained/maintained if diet/training is on point and of course endogenous T is brought back to a healthy level. Bet most men on average can put on 5-7 lbs water weight on trt. Abusing androgens/AAS in high doses could result in much more. Libido/erectile function is far more complex than just simply having healthy testosterone levels let alone estradiol/DHT/prolactin! [/QUOTE]
