Back Tightness

[iron addict]

If you do gear, especially things like tren, d-ball and even high dose test, you will likely at some point suffer from back tightness/cramps. This can be quite excruciating and often stops people from getting through a full workout. Hell some people get it so bad they have a hard time just walking more than a couple of blocks without the pump shutting them down.

If this is you, one of your biggest challenges will be determining how much is attributed to the gear pump, and how much may be back pain/spasm from overuse. No need to tell you many people on gear overtrain excessively and often are on the verge of having a minor or major back injury quite often. If you are totally convinced that the back tightness/pain you are feeling is all because of the gear pump, you are likely to just keep pushing when you should be resting.

It is difficult to tell were the tightness is coming from often, and the only way many are able to differentiate is if they have done a solid dose while doing no lower back/heavy full-body lifts. Which for many is a situation that has never occurred. If in doubt take it easy for a couple of sessions and see if it is alleviated. No one wants to train light while on a cycle, but no one wants to get injured either. Be aware of this situation and you may save yourself a lot of grief.

good post iron. Have many looked into all these variables and came to any conclusion as to the main initiator of the lower back pumps? blood pressure, cbc panels, edema, androgens, etc...i wonder which one has the greatest effect

I only get bad back pumps on dbol, which also bloats me beyond comprehension so I would not touch it again. Since then, other gear has given me pumps but nothing that laying down or even sitting for a minute or 2 wouldnt fix
