Bit of background info… I have been running tren ace for the last 8 or 9 days. 50mg ED in the AM. Im taking 400mg of test cyp per week which I started about 7 weeks ago. First week after adding the tren I felt good, body temperature has increased and getting a little out of breath doing light work. Appetite has been supressed slightly but I am still managing to force down my usual amount of food. Water intake hasn’t changed or anything. Been doing 30min cardio every other day on the exercise bike and lifting at around 70-80% of my usual lifts due to a shoulder injury which is nearly healed. I am lifting the normally in the 8-10 rep range and hitting everything except shoulders. So far I haven’t noticed any strength increase or better pumps in the gym. Although I feel like my red blood cell count has increased especially since adding tren. My source is definitely legit and I haven’t touched any AI or Caber but have both on hand if sides occur. I am also taking NAC and a on cycle support.
Yesterday morning I took my usual dose of tren, ate breakfast and drove to work. Half an hour into my shift i started feeling dizzy and faint. My vision was going blurry and it was like the room was darker. Felt like I was going to pass out and had stomach pains so walked to my car and nearly threw up on the way but it was a dry gag. I sat there for half an hour sipping water, my heartbeat was going a bit quick and painful. Anyway I felt ok enough to go back and another 15 minutes later I felt as if nothing had ever happened. It did not occur again until this morning, at exactly the same time and for the same duration of time, only a bit less intense. I hope tomorrow it doesn’t happen, it was a bit scary as I had no idea what was going on.
Does anyone have any ideas on what’s going on? Amy feedback would be appreciated.
Honestly, I have this as well. I eat a carb heavy meal, goes straight through me, 10 minutes later I feel my sugars dropping and it’s like I have nothing in my stomach. Sometimes I feel a bit sick while eating as well. Tren really messes with your digestive system. But also I think changes I insulin response and carb utilisation also plays a role
But this was after about 6 weeks. Your in the second week. I don’t think it’s gonna be a nice ride for you if tren is doing this early
@weightliftingwithoutlimits Yes I feel like it is messing with my digestion a bit. Mainly just in the morning though. After 10am I feel absolutely fine. Its not making me feel right though, sort of like a toxic superdrol feeling. I’ll try ride it out and if it doesn’t get any better I’ll decrease the dose, failing that I’ll stop altogether. Just a shame it doesn’t agree with me as I bought 3 bottles of tren 100mg/ml and the caber too, was looking forward to this cycle for a long time. These sides make my last cycle of 800mg test pw and 50mg of dbol ED seem like a walk in the park. The quality of gains might not be as good or keepable but at least I enjoyed feeling like a lion with a massive appetite too.
Insulin resistance/deleterious alterations in intestinal flora
If you unknowingly become diabetic (for an acute period of time), repeated bouts of this will induce systemic, long term damage to numerous bodily systems/organs etc… moreso than AAS alone
Just had a quick look, It does sound like something similar to whatever I experienced, but how come it only happened in the morning? Surely that would happen following all my other meals too, where I consume a lot more carbs compared to breakfast?
Many AAS do, dbol, anadrol have been legitimately implicated within inducing glucose intolerance in medical literature. Nandrolone and testosterone however are not associated with this deleterious effect
Probably, you’re playing with fire if you’re blood sugar is dropping so low you have NO energy, find yourself on the verge of passing out etc. Look up complications (both acute and chronic) stemming from diabetes
It’ll also fuck up gains, Tren with adequate insulin sensitivity should be a nutrition partitioning powerhouse. Perhaps the reason you aren’t noticing significant increments in size is because you’re insulin sensitivity is so far off the norm
I changed the time of my jab to before bed, sticking to 50mg ED. This morning I had my normal breakfast which consisted of no sugar and a protein shake with just 2g of sugar, then I drove to work. A few minutes after arriving I felt the blood starting to leave my head and my neck started tingling, got the shakes so I pounded a 250ml smoothie containing 24g of sugar. Within 2 minutes I felt fine. I think it’s just my body sucking all the glucose out of my blood while i sleep and not having enough sugars to replace it in the morning. Going to stock up on these smoothies, they could quite literally save my life haha
Sdrol anecdotally will make this problem exponentially worse
If walking for long periods of time always bring s glucose replenishment (reddit story of a dude going severely hypo on a hike while on sdrol is scary)
Before I do so, should say straps have helped me immensely @aaronca
Can now do 315 for 14 reps touch and go (estimated 1rm is 206kg)
At my body weight 73kg, this isn’t actually half bad, it isn’t great/good by any standards… but it’s not super weak either, it’s heavy enough that I get strange at my commercial gym… because it looks like a tiny little dude lifting up a seven foot bar
Rack pull was 230kg today for 4 reps (day after deadlifting + after numerous hours of intensive manual Labour)… but the power rack only allows me to go like… above the knee, my DL/rack pull ratio has always been close to one another
I’d hypothesize the dbol has a loooot to do with the newfound strength as well as the fact that I’m periodically training deadlifts (have been doing them regularly for about 2 1/2 months now)
Whilst I’m not “strong”, I have had genetic analysis performed on me that indicates my potential for accelerated muscular tensile strength is above the average… too bad my hands are very miniscule in size
