Cardiovascular Running and Test E

[vacarski19D]

Wondering if anyone has experience with test and running. In the past I have done all my cardio while on cycle with an elyptical because when I ran I would get shin splints very quickly. However, since my last cycle (3 months ago: test/equipoise/win) I have been running 4-6 miles six mornings per week along with lifting at night. If I continue with my running schedule and add test (1 gram per week) will I get shin splints or get slower or was that a result of bad conditoining coulpled with disproportant gains in calf strength that resulted in the shin splints before. Any experience or knowledge would be great.

stats:

5'9.5"
212 lbs
12% bf
6 min 1 mile
30 min 4 mile

What is the purpose of your running, are you trying to lose bf?.

Shin splits are caused by the shin muscle being weaker. Since you dont have the shin splits now you wont get them on cycle. Unless you are confusing shin splints with calf/shin pumps, in this case you will get the pumps on cycle.

shin splints have nothing to do with anabolics or your natural testosterone. sounds like u are getting that confused with calf pumps or something..anyways i get shin splints bad, and i just wrap ice around my shins and that helps tremendously

i have to run as part of my job.

i understand the differnce between calf pumps and shin splints. "The root causes of the pain of shin splints can be divided into two areas: muscle and bone. The muscles that connect to the ankle are covered by a "sausage skin" known as fascia. This fascia holds the muscles together, and it is quite tough and inelastic. When the muscles naturally expand as a result of exertion, the resulting pressure causes the pain. We see this form of shin splints, known as exertional compartment syndrome, in athletes who play field sports like soccer or run a lot on hard surfaces.... " (scientificamerica.com : I cant post the exact link until I have over 25 posts, lame but understandable) With an increase in muscle hypertrophy and concurrently more "expansion" I am wondering how this plays into effect on the fascia. I know a few people who have experienced severe shin splints while on cycle but, as in my situation last cycle, they were not avid runners before going on. I am just curious to see if anyone had experience as an experienced runner first, then going on test. Truth be told I'm going do it anyway I just figured I throw this out there to know what to expect.

I used to run track (competed at the state level in high school) and have experienced shin splints. They are more of a chronic condition that gradually builds up in pain after continued running. Now I do bodybuilding and even walking on the tread mill gives me a crazy pump in my shins that basically locks up my ankle. I dont think the Test you want to take will give you what i described as shin splints but it might give you shin pumps that are mistaken for splits.

I guess one way can test out if you are getting shin splints or pumps is to press on the bone and if you get that high pitched pain then its splits.

My question is why 1000mg of test?!?

 

[vacarski19D]

the answer for me is simple: I want a physique the Gods would envy. I've done all doses from 400/600/750/1000/and 2G per week. The one thing i can say is that at 2gr ew you live in a perpetual euphoria almost an out of body experience. Working out on 2g a wk you feel like your floating through space and time has slowed. The pumps are so extreme necessay steps inevitably must be takea to tweak your training schedule and work with the experience.

as for me know1gr per week just seems right. 500-600 I know i get bigger, stronger, and more swoll, but at 1g your body truely become full, mentally, physically, spiritually. A man living in a presence his blood itself weighs. I follow a dailed in nutritioinal plan, but give me that insulin spike on cheat day and everthing seems to come together so strong, so tight, so vascular.

im off right now and i can feel that my natrual test has completlly come back on line. I got worked over on my HCG pct and was left with only nolva and proviron. I feel like i was put back into a lacking neutral state to quicly because for my body to really appreciate what god provides took a little long. Interestingly since my last shot of test eth 10 weeks ago I have leaned down quite a bit from 16 to 12% bf, dropped standing weight from 227 to 212 (excessive because of the cardio); yet at the same time my lifts have inclusivly increased at the same time. Since comming off i have been albe to increase from 450 flat bech to 500, 150lb dumbells for sets of 6-10 on shoulder press, 405 bent rows, 200lbs biceps champer curls, body weight +225lb dips, etc. I feel extremely stong but with the leaness appear smaller. I know I am overal in better physical shape now with the running. But my first passion is bodybuilding and running has just reciently began to grow on me.

its amazing how working with your thoughts on medium that they can become more clear. I',m thinking that I may be best off with 600 mgs wk test e (plus the necessary ancillaries of course) and this this dose my allow me with the most evolved expression of my total fitess (rather than1G which may lean to one side: i'll let you figure out which one). Stength and Speed. Who says you can t be the fastets and the strongest, or at least a contender of each.

I kind of got off track here on a little rant, put hey its a public forum. Any comments, experience or just whatups bullshit welcome. I love this shit.

This is probably a flexibility issue. You should incorporate 15 minutes of stretching into your regimen 3 times per week. Make sure you are 100% warmed-up (after a workout) and start from the top down. Stretch neck, shoulders, arms, upper back, lower back, quads, hams, and calves. Then start over at the lower back and work down again. Do not over stretch because you can cause micro-tears in your muscles or tendons, which will create a much greater problem. I bet your problem goes away in 2 weeks.
