Deca as joint lube?

[CFlan423]

I've heard from a few people that a low dose of deca is good for joint lube while cycling. Lately my left shoulder joint has really been bugging me while working out, no matter how heavy or light the weight is. Currently I'm on my 2nd cycle and I'm running 800mg Sustanon a week and 400mg Tren a week. 27yrs old 6'1 196lbs 13%bf

Any input on of deca might help or some other ideas as to what could be the issue?

there are far superior ways to improve joint health.

1. drop your damn weights, lift with your muscles, not your tendons and ligaments
2. up your omega's you are eating.. there are many omega rich foods, i won't list them all a simple google search will work but olive/flax oil, cage free eggs, avocado's are a great source
3. krill oil and salmon oil supplements

you don't need deca and frankly if you aren't doing the above you won't see a difference no matter what you do

Gotcha, I eat avocados frequently and take fish oil pills but I guess could def use an increase of my omegas

how tall are you?

when you say you have joint issues can you be specific? poor form is a guarantee you will run into issues. also inflammation is very different than joint pain. inflammation is the body attacking an injury. if you are getting that you need to back off. if it hurts don't do it for a while. also if you have a history abusing anti-inflammatories you could of created a chronic problem that may not go away for a long time

I'm 6'1, it never bothers me except when I do exercises that put direct strain on my left shoulder. When I bench I don't generally feel anything with the weight evenly distributed on both but when I do flyes or overhead presses I def feel it. It really only happens when working out, never any other time of my days. It just started recently, I haven't been going crazy with weight or anything and I almost never take any anti-inflammatory pills. It's pretty annoying, once it comes up during workouts I usually switch my workout to something else because #1 it's very uncomfortable, and #2 if there is something going on I don't want to worsen it. It feels like its coming from inside my joint.

What's the reason for running your dosage so high? It's seems a bit much so I assume your pushing a lot heavier in the gym. Shoulder joint injuries are quite acute, sounds like inflammation. What are you running for supports?

 

[CFlan423]

Which do you think is too high? I started my cycle 7 weeks ago at 450mg a week sust and 300 Tren and slowly I've increased it to where I'm at now which is the max I'm going for this cycle. No reason specifically except a few recommendations from fellow workout buddies. Mostly my goal is to help increase strength and size quicker. This is the same cycle I ran 6 months ago and got great results with no problems at all.

I take milk thistle, fish oil, and multivitamins daily

DECA does help ease some joint pain. I wouldnt stack it with TREN myself though.

Deca does allow you to lift heavier however this will lead to more stress on the joints , kinna like putting a band aid on a leak its only temporary and you might be in more pain after you come off.

Yeah, I loved NPP for the joint cushion but when I came off, I could FEEL the second it left my system completely.

I sent you a PM telling you about the remedy I trust and what works for me, check it!

That's quite a cycle. Did you jump start it with an oral or anything? I'm assuming the tren was acetate and not enanthate. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I know I'm a year late on this... but I agree with Leather Neck. Why did you decide to take so much test? 800mg/wk is quite a bit for a second cycle. The tren isn't really too high.... but why in the world would you take tren on your second cycle as well?

I also hope you took some HCG during the cycle since you took that tren. I'm sure you know by now, but tren shuts you down pretty good. HCG helps a lot with not getting shut down as badly.

What di your post cycle look like and when did you start it?? How many weeks did you run the cycle?
