This is what I was going to say. The first 2 months of serious training and only doing 5 reps? You really need to be developing those muscles before trying to gain mass in them. 10 reps per set. Once you can do that consistently, add 5 lbs on each end, and repeat.

Creatine has helped me bigtime in pushing out the last few reps of a set. It helps with explosive power.
