So, my second shot went waaaaaay better.
No problems whatsoever.
I got pretty lightheaded after I injected my friend, though…
nothing like the other day though. I literally was cold-sweating buckets.
Thanks for the feedback, I’ll incorporate it into my next arm day
Practice makes perfect haha

Yeah, it’ll come as second nature before it’s all over with.
Secondly, here are my lab results from a couple weeks ago.
Serum T: 753 (242-880)
Progesterone: .8 (.3-1.2)
DHEA: 590 (107-745)
Cortisol: 12.1 (4-22)
Estradiol, free: 1.3 (.8-3.5)
Estradiol, serum: 39 (0-53)
SHBG: 33 (20-60)
IGF-1: 201 (94-252)
Wow, kay you had pretty good stats from the get-go. I lost mine but I was a little shy over 370 on my serum T. Updates?
By updates you mean on my progress… not my blood tests right? I’m going back for another lab at the end of my cycle.

LOL. ok, so it’s not that big of a deal, but within the past month that’s the most I’ve weighed… And it’s probably from all this eating. Still, I felt exclamation points were appropriate.

It wasn’t meant to be sarcastic, more like a mini congratulations. So you’ve barely been on a week. Thats good.

PR on Deadlifts today.
I’m getting some crazy back pumps. Could this be from the heavy deadlifting (relatively speaking, heavy), or I’ve read it can be a side effect of test… any opinions?
I was taking a piss post workout and my lower back was shaking almost while I tried to stand still.

You’re not taking any orals, are you? I can’t remember, and don’t feel like going back through this thread.
Taurine, 3g/day. More if it gets unbearable.

No orals.
Thanks, I’ll try it out if I still get them today. I think it might just be from deadlifts
I honestly did not read the whole thing, 8 pages was just too much for me.
You seem to be on point so far. I think you cals are coming in a bit low, but hopefully you’ll figure that out.
I wish you the best of luck of luck with this. I did my first cycle at 21, and 6"4 220lbs. I have no doubt I could have gained more natty. I have no doubt that at 19 you eaisly could have made killer gains on your own without help.
Sadly, you will probably have a tough time ever making gains after this which means you’ll be on and off the rest of your life. Not really anything wrong with that IMO, just a fact. Looking forward to reading how this plays out for you. Keep posting and prove everyone wrong. There are lots of people here to help if shit starts going wrong.
