My First Stick, by Wayneboard1

[wayneboard1]

well I discovered something last night by accident. I was getting ready to do my 4th stick, and had heated up this rice heatpad thing I have that I use for sore muscles, and to warm up the quad before a stick. You nuke it for 2 minutes and it stays hot for about 20. Right when I was ready to stick the phone rang, so I set the syringe inside the heatpad where the needle would stay untouched and up in the air until I could come back. I was on the phone for about 5 minutes and when I cam e back the syringe was very warm almsot hot. I waited a minute and stuck myself, and I noticed it was easier to inject it. Then when I wake up today expecting to be really sore, nothing. I don't feel ANY pain at all, not even slight discomfort. I guess I wasn't heating up my gear enough but now I know how to do it! Sweet, this is going to help and really boosted me up a bit. No mroe pian 4 days after a stick, because I was already getting sick of always being sore and I was afraid it was going to start affecting my leg workouts more. Of course I may wake up tomorrow and can hardly walk but I am happy today!

Yeah, that soreness builds and just when you think it's going to taper off, you wake up the next morning (after peeing 16 times in one night mind you) and you gotta drag your leg around like quazimoto all dadgum day. I am a little concerend about some looks I am getting from coworkers. The first few days I could explain it away, but now the 4th straight sore thigh and alternating exactly? LOL It's gonna be fun!

Dang silver, 9 shots a week? I don't think I could do that. I am reading up on Primo and satch may of won me over with his constant raving about it on the boards. If he can promise me I would get a body like his, I'll do it and sell my right nut for it! Afterall, it's shrinking away to nothing now anyways. LOL

Are you really getting up in the middle of the night and pissing 16 times?!?! How much water are you drinkin' man? I get up once, if that, and I drink A LOT of water.

Sorry about the pain after the shots, man. My Test E (ICN Galenika, by the way) is almost painless. Only the slightest soreness for about 48 hours after the shot so far.

I assume you are heating the amp? Using a nice clean Terumo 23g 1.5 in your ass? Doing 5 minutes of massage? Maybe sit on a heating pad for 15 minutes? Stretch the glute?

If you are doing all that, then it is probably the gear. Not much you can do about it. (One of the reasons I chose the Galenika, is that it is painless. My 1st choice was Aburian Iran, but I had to go with Galenika instead - no regrets.)

Good luck - keep us updated.

LOL...man I was joking about pissing 16 times. I usually piss 2 MAYBE 3 times in a night nothing to lose sleep over. (hardy har) I was doing the stretch, the stick after a long hot shower, massaging the quad for longer than 5 minutes before and after the stick, I think the problem was that I was not heating up the gear like I thought I was. I would run it under really hot water for a minute or two and/or hold it in my hand for 3-4 minutes, but getting it very warm, almost body temp maybe was what seemed to of made the difference here. Between my post earlier and this post I did about 30 minutes of cardio and felt it, but it didn't hurt ot bother me at all. I think really getting it warm almost hot but not hot makes the difference for my leg. I was glad I found it out. Yes, using a 23 gauge stick, all I have are 1.5" but I don't go in all the way and leave that extra half inch out mostly. I am going to work back tonight so this should be fun. I am looking forward to seeing the EQ start to kick in but figure it won't for a few more weeks. I am only just now finishing week 2 on a 15 week cycle.

Oh man, I hurt the last 3 days with no elite, I think I am officialy an addict. Anywho, started my 3 week and starting to notice something kick in think it was the test. Not sure when the EQ starts and my hunger was really high last week but it seems to of tapered off a bit so not sure whats going on. If test is this good, I bet 500 instead of my 250 would be great! My legs are not hurting at all anymore aftere I started to really heat the gear good before my stick. I use my heating pad and man it makes a HUGE difference! Today is leg day so I am looking forward to it. I think I might of tweaked my shoulder yesterday doing overhead presses. It feels wierd and I always get that "clicking" in my shoulders no matter what angle I do it in. I hate that and don't want to use a machine but that seems to be the onlt thing that doesn't make that squishy clicking sound.

I hate to admit it but this will not be my last cycle; I already know that. LOL I lkike the quaility gains concept and IF this EQ cycle works out, I may look at primo. My second mortgage paperwork is in so I can afford it however. OK, glad to be back.

Well, had a crappy leg workout today, my lower back was just sore for some reason. But the heating pad will take care of it so I had to do leg press instead of squats today. Oh well, I just went even heavier on it and blasted my calves and hammies as well. On a good note, I put on a polo type shirt today that I had not worn in about a month and I swear to you it looked too small around my chest. I wear XL in about everything and always liked that and this shirt is an XL. I had to kind of chuckle at that but I can't afford to buy new clothes. LOL I weighed myself tonight after my workout and I was at 222. I was at 215 when I started 3 weeks ago. I don't feel much water retention at all but I am sure a lot of that weight is water. Oh well I feel good other than a few lethargic spells that only lasted about 24 hours and my crappy leg workout tonight. SO far so good and I can't wait for the EQ to kick in. I have to be careful because I am already thinking about what to run fo rmy second cycle. Talk about the cart before the horse!

and with being up 24/7 I bet you are thinking about it a lot huh? LOL

Just drink some Bailys thats warmed up and add a little southern comfort in there (use a 32 oz glass topped off). You'll be good to go. Think of this song as u drift off to sleep.

"Hush little silver don't say a word, waynes gonna get you hhhaaammmmered"

lol.

Good point, I do have a lot more spare time to think about things now. That would definitely knock my no drinking ass out!

Southern Cmfort is SO good straight but I am staying off the sauce and have been for awhile. It easy to stay off when working out and eating right, etc. So is tonight when u r gonna try the scrip sleep aid?

That's a good decision. I still won't have it for a few days, I am definitely ready to have some sort of normalcy in my sleeping patterns again.
