Are you getting enough sleep, what is your daily caloric intake, and how much protein are you taking each day? I was having some weakenss issues and have noticed the timing of my meals helps. I have the "heartiest" meal of the day about 2-3 horus before I lift and it makes a big difference. I also make sure and get a meal or PW shake in within 1 hours after lifting and that has helped too.
Maybe an off day bud, just relax! Everyone has em. Just get back into the gym tommorow and give er shit! Good luck with the cycle

there's so many factors that come into play on this one... Long esters wont kick in for a couple weeks so nothing's gonna happen for a while (maybe mentally).
two posts above me nail it right on.

It was an off day...maybe your fat or carbs happened to be low this day or maybe your protien.
the gear has nothing to do with it..you just injected one day ago...those compounds need a couple wks to load

just curious, the deca im taking from qv is clear, but last time i took it (2 years ago) from qv it was dark brown. i know this is legit because it came sealed and with a hologram and everything on it but has anyone encountered this? im takin 300mg deca/wk and 400 mg/ cyp, both quality vet brand.

dont worry, deca doesnt kick in for a while, and deca with me never really made me feel stronger... although i was lifting more i never really had that strong, o yea this is awesome feeling, it was more gradual, the test depends on what kinda you have, if you have prop YAY youll know what im talkng bout, prop will amp yuou and get you stronger pretty fast, but its its long acting it will take a while, personally i find myself stronger off cycle than when im on dont ask me why but the best lifts ive ever made IN MY ENTIRE LIFE have been right after my last injection or a week after ive stoped, dont know why that is but i dont really care haha just chill, you got nothing to worry bout, just do your thing, it was prob, just wonna those days...
As others have said, what you lifted today has nothing to do with what you took yesterday. You could have injected 2G's yesterday and it wouldn't have made a difference today. It's probably just the heat (been over 100* here), coupled with some overtraining or may just be a mental thing. Try this, take a few days off, rest and eat eat eat, then on your next workout day pop a couple of energy pills an hour before hand, go in the gym and don't hold back.....

You aren't implying that you expected great things the day after your first injection? If your expectations are that high you are in for a let down, and mentally it could mess with your results.
Take 2-3 days off other than your normal off days and dont over train the next 2 weeks. Write down the most weight you have been able to do for 8 reps up until now. 3 WEEKS from now compare those numbers with what you are capable of that week. There's the noticeable improvement your looking for.

i agree, and i wasnt expecting gains the day after b/c ive taken test & deca before and it was a few weeks before i started noticing anything, but u went from taking No2, creatine and tribulus to nothing in place of the test/deca and maybe thats why im weak. but today i tried another workout and went hard at it and still went way down (example: usually do standing clean-and-press with 200 for about 6-8, today couldnt even CLEAN up 195, let alone even press it. upright rows went from sets of 125 for 8 to 105 for 5, and these are just examples of how much my strength went down.) how much should i expect to gain during a 300mg/wk deca and 400 mg/week test? much at all? i just want my strength to start going up a little for a piece of mind because getting weak makes me really depressed in that working out is pretty much my livelihood right now. anyway im ranting on now so ill stop. shits just depressing.

I don't think that has to do with your shot unless you got some bad shit this time around.
this is my 3rd cycle and no i never thought it would work this quick but i expected to be able to maintain the weights i was previously using until that happened, not fall back until i hit the same strength i was when i was 4 months old within a matter of 2 days. im not sayin its the gear but i dont know why im losing so much strength all of the sudden.

U are overtraining. After 10yrs in the game I've learned one thing, 99% of us are overtraining. If your strength is dropping, outside of disease, it can only be overtraining.
These past 2 years it has been impossible for me to do the ol "1hr/day, 5days/wk" that I had done for years. This caused me to miss workouts each week, it's not uncommon that a bodypart will only get hit directly once every two weeks. I caused me to drop to lighter weights but increasing the sets and reps.
Walla, now I look like a bodybuilder not a powerlifter, go figure.
