Does it matter when you stick....

[Bigredcanecorso]

Hey bro's,
Got kinda stupid question but here it goes...

I have been sticking myself every weds and sat, and I would poke right before I would go into the gym, my question is this does it make a difference if I go and workout then stick instead of before, does it matter?

Thanks

 

[Inhibitor13]

Ive wondered the same...... I stick after a workout...so that way I dont have to deal with any pain/soreness and I give it the next day to heal while Ill do my legs.....so does it matter if you stick before..like will you get better results?

Thats not a stupid question , its not when you stick that matters what matters is where you stick, eyeballs are a no no.
On a more serious note i always inj 1-2 hrs before hitting the gym its seems to give me a rush and better pumps!

eh, i have to disagree with you radar. I figured a vet like you would know the answer to this question hands down.

It's obvious that the 'rush' you are getting is completely psychological rather than physiological in nature. If you stick yourself with prop, it's still going to take a day before it actually interacts with you, and if you are injecting enth, cyp, etc, several days, or even weeks.

My advice is one of which I found to be true in my case. I only stick myself in the delts, and yes, each person has their favorite sticking points. So, if I know I'm going to be working delts, shoulders, back, etc, i'll wait until after I workout. I find sticking myself before a workout in the delts, usually makes the pain in that area even worse the next day or so. I can only imagine sticking myself in the glute then working out extremely hard on legs.. just my .02

I usually shoot after a warm shower, post-workout... don't think it really matters personally but that is my pref.

And I disagree with you as i know my body pretty well ,the test starts breaking down the minute you inject wether it be Enanthate ,prop ,cyp or anything else it may not be much but in 2 hrs time i can notice a difference!

well, sure it all breaks down but at what point can you honestly, HONESTLY say and bet your balls on it that its kicking in! ? heheh..I felt this primo 3 days later and swore i had some serious pumps, but I was being cautious making that claim!

 

[brandonp005]

so far i have kind of mixed it up, couple times before and a couple times after.....so far i can't really tell a difference, but what i can say is this.....since i have been on (4 weeks of Omnadren 250 @ 500mg/wk) my pumps have been amazing...i fucking love it...especially my biceps and back...after i left the gym today, i felt like a beast......i love the sense of well being while i'm on

another thing i love is all my teammates look at me like WTF?????....i'm getting bigger, stronger and workout like an animal

 

[djsf]

For longer esters, as RADAR says, you might feel a little something a couple hours after the inject, but it may be subtle. Can't hurt a bit to enjoy your workout later in the day!

If you are doing prop, I have found it takes pretty much exactly 14 hours to reall hit hard (it feels like all the ester falls off at the same time and you get whacked with the whole dose of test at that time). So I would inject prop in the *evening* so it hits the next morning. Morning prop injects may jolt you out of bed at 2 AM feeling the heat of a testosterone rush!

If you are doing test suspension, you can start to feel it within 30 minutes. I find test suspension hits hardest between 3 and 10 hours after the inject, so I would definitely inject that in the morning.

 

[Mavafanculo]

I agree with radar - I've been doing this long enuf to know the difference between real and placebo effect - I feel test cyp within hours. (I have a fast metabolism which may have something to do with it.)

and I've experimented with shooting before workouts vs after and the pumps are WAY better when I shoot before.

Yes I Can ! I can tell after that time my libido is harder when i'm having sex

You are confusing the kick in time to the release time.
OR Just maybe you haven't reached my age yet ,then you will notice these things

RADAR's lying.


Me personally, can't tell a difference at all. I usually inject on my 2 days off, in the evening. But give it a try, it surely can't hurt.

nah, i'm 34 and I have decent test levels normally, so maybe, that's why I don't feel it. If I was 54 and in the negative 300's, I would definitely feel it bro. j/j bro.. lots of luv to you also

 

[RADAR]

My test levels are way below normal ,thats why i'm on yr round i don't feel good when i run out.

[ChefWide]

i have seen paper that suggests two spikes in test after administration: one about an hour after you stick,lasting about two hours and one in the vacinity of 4-7 days after depending on the esther...

Mr. X, Ulter and Macro know WAY THE HELL more about this than almost anyfolks i know, bump for real science here please, good sirs!


Oh, and Radar, props to us types with a few more miles on them on the board, eh?

[Steve The Bluesman]

I stick prior to lifting, becuase lifting increases blood flow and heats up the body, good things for disbursing the gear and avoiding pain in the injection area.

[fugetaboutit]

Radar, what's the minimum dose that you use to stay on year round? Oh, and I also think I feel a little extra kick right after I inject test cyp and everyone thinks I'm crazy!

was gonna say the same thing!

and besides, who cares if it's psychological or physical at that point... as long as it's getting the job done!!

If the slight increased awareness, bit of a buzz and mood uplift is placibo ... I'm getting it every time. Why not make it work for you?

 

[djsf]

RADAR,
I'm 40 and I'm also considering sometime in my future going always-on with a modest dose of test (300mg/wk-ish). Other than shutting down the HPTA, are there any major downsides to that? We would essentially be doing test for life. I was wondering if there is any evidence linking moderate continuous test supplementation with disease or shortened lifespan.

 

[shamrock11]

In my opinion I don't inject after a workout b/c it seems to be a harder shot and a little more pain than if I do it before. I guess it has to do with the tenseness of my muscles. It's just so much smoother for me before I workout or go to work for that matter

I have the same experience that Radar does - I can feel Test Prop and Test E (to a lesser extent) a few hours after injecting.

I'm in my mid-30's, have normal natural test levels, and am very in tune with my body.
