Been having heart palpitations for 3 hours everyday after workout. Stopped taking preworkout and it ironically made them start during the workout. Felt exhausted and my heart was pounding. BP has been fine 120/70ish not bloating and have been losing weight. I couldn’t finish the workout and now have chest tightness. Family has severe heart issues so I guess it’s my turn. Going to the doctor next week probably done posting anything until I get this figured out. Sucks to suck

Heart Palpitations are gone. Energy slowly came back over the last 5 days. EKG came back normal. Doctor said I was fine and could have been caused by the increase from 140-180mg. Workout felt fine but I felt a little more fatigued than usual.

Strength is skyrocketing and deficit getting larger. Discovered the cause of the “heart” issue: low iron. Test will apparently degrade ferritin levels. Took some ferrous iron today and felt amazing.

Making strength gains in a calorie deficit is encouraging. Longest plateau was two weeks in the last 2 years, could newbie gains last this long?

Really heavy lifts tend to be very fatiguing but might not stimulate the target muscle very well.

If you’re doing heavy squats to build quads but you dont feel it target quads very much, then it’s a bad stimulus to fatigue ratio.

If you feel them target the quads a LOT, then this is probably good stimulus:fatigue ratio.

Tbh Im just smashing some basic strength/ hypertrophy principles together. My squats are for squat strength alone. I do splitsquats /
leg extensions for my hypertrophy. It’s a mess lol. I’m trying to cut and power build. It wouldn’t be possible without the exogenous test

Definitely open to advice though

Have you considered running 5/3/1? Its oriented around Squat, Deadlifts, OHP and Bench, but also has accessory work (which could be hypertrophy work).

Its extremely customizable so you can typically meet more than one goal, so long as your main work is centered around getting stronger.

Haven’t run it myself but I’ve been considering it for some time… you might find yourself a good match with that.
