how much strength do u gain


i train at too high %s Kelvin.im starting to always have niggling injuries.i eat a lot of crap.i have to always cut to make weight so of course i lose strength and with that i lose confidence.i have two options after the meet,try and lose some weight to the mid 80s and put on lean muscle back up to 93 or just become this short blob in the 105s.
its kind of annoying putting in wimpy efforts on the platform with weights that i crush when im 6-7kgs heavier.
i had enough of this thread lol.thanks for the replies.was educational.

I know what you mean. Cutting weight with a 1 1/2 hour weigh in window to rehydrate sucks. In effect, you really can't drop more than a kg or so. I'm sick of doing sub par with muscle cramps and such so am aiming to just squeak in this comp, a la Steve Pritchard.

Sounds like you know what the problems are, so just fix them. Forget about cutting. Just clean up your diet and stop maxing out in training. It works a treat. You will have all the strength without the bloat and much less chance of injury. Plus you will get stronger.
 
Talking to Ed, he'd cut up to 10kg with a 2hr weigh in.
Drink a bit of water, eat a bit of rice and do the meet.

All in the sauna. No water loading.
 

The way I wrote it I thought it was pretty clear that it's ALL about the training
You use AAS as a recovery method in order for you to do more work. They suck for "strength" unless you take orals or take a very large dose.
 
My experience. I went from benching 90 to 125kg in 2 test e (500ml/wk for 8 week) cycles. I was working out 5ish times a week doing sets of 4-6@90%1rm. I've been off test for about a year and am still benching 110.

Test works.
