Feeling Small

[JayCutlerIsFat]

I just finished a deca only cycle and gained 16 pounds...
I am now one week into my clen along with a low carb/high protien diet w/ cardio 3-4 times a week...
I feel like my muslces have shrunk tremendously.
Funny thing is, my strength is still up..
I think it just may be all in my head
Does this happen to anyone else?

YES. I FEEL LIKE THAT NOW AFTER COMING OFF FINA AND TEST. I JUST STARTED CARDIO 1 WEEK AGO. MY BENCH HAS ACTUALLY GONE UP, BUT THE CARDIO AND DIET MAKE ME FEEL SHITTY. MY LOWER BACK IS BUGGING ME AFTER DEADS ON SUNDAY, TOO. I FEEL PRETTY FUCKING SHITTY ALL THE WAY AROUND. CAN'T WAIT TO GET BACK ON. HATE COMING OFF.

How low are your CHO? Do your muscles look flat? If so all you have to do is up your CHO a little and you will fill back out.

if your strength is up thats a good sign as far as size i wouldnt worry about it probably due to low carbs and not enough water intake you need at least 150gm/day
and a gallon of water.

YOUR NOT ALONE I FEEL LIKE SHIT TOO.

I feel the same way even though I have only lost 2-3 pounds. I just keep telling my self that it will all be fine once I hit my next cycle in a month or so (if all goes as planned) Hang in there bro!

CHO

What exactly do you mean by CHO bsjohnson? I always feel flat, and I can't figure out why, even when I'm on cycle. It's frustrating as hell.

CHO = Carbohydrates

You need carbs to fill out your muscles.
