Taking a few days off . . .

[cyrex]

I'm taking a few days off of weight training. I've basically hit most everything I wanted to hit this week but my hands are swollen I think from heavy deads, dumbell presses. I couldn't twist my arms in enough to do underhand grip barbell rows tonight so when I did try to do a set it put more pressure on the inside of my grip (between my thumb and forefinger than needed and kinda hurt it a little). I think I'm just gonna rest until Monday other than doing some cardio and lots of stretching and icing. Also my forearms got so extremely pumped I wasn't getting much blood past my wrists and I felt my fingers get a little tingly for a while after I did some forearm curls. that dbol is working a little too welll. Even right now when I type it feels like I have 5lb weights on each finger. my wrists look about 2 inches smaller than about 1 inch up my forearms away from my wrist right now and my hands look about 2x thicker than usual.

anyone else ever have this happen?

BTW nothing feels hurt, just swollen

You probably need a week or two off. It's a good idea once a year. Don't know how many months in a row you've been at it though.

well i'm currently on a cycle that I'm gonna end in about 2 weeks.. then i'm taking a full week off (due to some traveling) but since I'm in the middle/end of a cycle I don't want to waste the extra hormones i got going on in me

anyone else had hands swell up like this before but not from an obvious injury

Man, Im experiencing the same damn thing right now.

I dunno wtf is going on. Aprox 1 month ago, I couldnt sleep and I ate 3 tylenol PM and ended up passing out on the couch. I woke up the next morning in an awkward position and I could barely move my wrist. I guess I slept on it really really bad. Well my wrist was pretty jacked for about 4 solid days. It swelled up all to hell, and I couldnt even wear my watch (which is usually loose enough to spin around my wrist).

After about a week and a half, I regained full mobility without any pain for the most part.

Since then however, it seems like the swelling in my wrist never fully went away. Its been a bitch these last few weeks to get my wedding ring on and off. Today actually I didnt even put it on cause it wasnt even comin close to being able to slide on easily! Hope my wife doesnt notice! lol.

So I dont know what is going on. Is this residual swelling still left over? Am I retaining too much water (im using AIFM 2.5 pumps twice a day)? Am I just increasing in size and that is what is causing this? Maybe so, cause I ripped through one of my good shirts at work on Monday, lol

But I dunno...

Im mid week 6 of a Test520/Deca500 stack.

some of it may very well be bloat. I know a little of it is for me but I've been bloated before and it doesn't affect my hands like this... mostly my face and waist

Same here man. I've done 3 cycles previous to this one. I have never bloated excessively that would result in what I am experiencing right now. I also have never used any products to help decrease bloating since naturally it really hasnt affected me that severely in the past.

This is the first cycle that I have stacked 2 AS's tho, so I figured I better scoop up some AIFM just to be safe.

So I dunno wtf my body is doin right now heh. SPOKEN LIKE A TRULY EDUCATED MAN! ... go me
