Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below I'm about 1.5 weeks into a Test Enanthate/Winstrol cycle and I'm getting progressively more painful back pumps. I get it anytime my back is not relaxed, so pretty much anytime I'm standing. I could barely stand-up after squats and had to cut the workout short. I've seen others have experienced similar problems while 'on' but I didn't find anything saying how to alleviate the problem. Anyone have any luck? I tried eating a ton of bananas for potassium but it didn't do anything. Stretching = nothing. Warm baths = nothing. Anything else?

on fina now and getting them reel bad....I had to quit playing hockey it flares up reel bad when i skate
at the gym after every set of squats I stretch on one of the stability balls.......Lie on with your stomach down and kind roll it. Stretches out your lower back. That ball gets me through squats and deads every week, give it a shot it helps me

It's your kidney's.
I've been on test cyp for 4days now and I can feel the pain in my lower back. It's like a throbbing pain.
The only thing that I can think of off the top of my head is to drink Cranberry Juice. A few glasses a day will help them out alot.
I'll bump it for you.

Fozy, I'm in the 3rd week of my first cycle (test & d-bol) and have been working the hell out of my legs.
Strength is up and recovery times are dramitically improved.
My lower back is doing EXACTLY what you guys describe, and after I do legs I'm waiting 2 days before I get on the ice, but the lower back is crapping out on me as soon as I get out there...
Is this gonna continue throughout the whole cycle??
I was kind of hoping it would go away after a few weeks.
Even with the compromised back, I've already noticed an improvement in my skating mechanics -- better control on my edges and more explosive strength. I know the added muscle will help my skating throughout the year and that was all I wanted anyway.
Fozy, how long will it take for my back to return to normal. I need to be able to skate my ass off starting Oct 1st (sooner wouldn't hurt). It's not gonna happen if my lower back keeps this shit up. I don't want to bail on my cycle early. If you have any advice I'd sure appreciate it...........

Hmm, the pain I have is more a constant rather than a throbbing pain. I compare it to the way I would feel after doing a heavy set of sumo-deadlifts when I was off-cycle. The difference here is it wont go away unless I lay down. A few minutes after standing up, it returns. Could this still be the kidneys?
I can tough it through muscle pains, but if my kidneys are causing so much pain they must be getting pretty damaged.

I get the same thing, after Hyper Extensions or Heavy Squats.
SO Fina is the culprit, I though my lwr back was weak.

I'm getting the same thing from test and d-bol.
There's no injury, and I know it isn't my kidneys.
Just a constant "pump" in the stabilizer muscles in my extreme lower back. If I make those muscles do any work at all, they die out immediately. I used to get the same thing running sprints up hillsides in college -- those lower back muscles would just die out. Since I've gotten on my cycle, my legs are recovering from extreme workouts in no time, but the back isn't.
It's been a week since I did legs -- last night I'm standing over the sink for a little while doing dishes and I can't hold myself up. Lower back muscles are trashed like I just walked out of the gym, and it's been a friggen week.
Maybe I should lift even heavier and get the girlfriend to come over and clean up the place.
