Those experienced with propionate...

Hey guys. A couple of questions, please only experienced users, not some 19 year old kid telling me what he read. lmao.

- Do the flu-like symptoms persist thru the whole cycle while using this ester, or only at the start?

- Are they bad enough to stop your training? What do they involve? Sore throat? Fever? what? How bad are they?

- Not everyone gets them I hear. How common is it?

- Also not really phased about the supposed painful shots. But are they even anymore painful? I did phenylprop before and it was a breeze. No pain, no flu, good gains.

Anyone?

Thx.

I haven't had the "flu" problems, so I won't comment on that.

The propinate doesn't hurt going in during the injection site, but the injection site often gets sore later on - like the next day you may wake up with a bit of swelling and some soreness. Just start with a reasonable amount, say 1 cc, to see how it is for you, and then you can think about shooting more at once. I doubt you'll have a real problem with it, especially since you had no problem with phenypropinate.

flu usually last 2-3 days, you feel shitty but not like your dying. For me it was like a mild cold, and I only got it once. This is your bodys way of reacting to a foriegn substance.

Trevdog, No worries, thanks mate. The phenyl hurt after the shot the next day or whatever, but not too bad. Actually felt good to go and do squats and "stretch" it out kind of thing. I'm not phased about the pain, I'm worried the flu symptoms will have me feeling like crap and not training.

Blimmer, thanks for the advice ... also, how much did you shoot?

Agreed. I wouldn't inject prop in the legs. I couldn't walk right for days but I never had any flu like symptoms.

I've had flu-like symptoms a few times starting different test esters. It always cleared up in 2-3 days. The trick is to keep eating even when you don't feel like it.

I never got that sore the day after doing injections in the legs, but I did notice a slight soreness in the glutes the day after. I've never done more than 500mg/week, so that might have something to do with why I never noticed much pain or soreness from prop.

As far as getting the flu symptoms, I never noticed anything that I would attribute to the prop.

I'm unsure how common flu-like symptoms are but I haven't heard of these symptoms continuing well into the cycle, most clear in less than a week.

I was lucky that I didn't have much reaction to pain/flu or anything. Everybody is different though. I loved it.. granted it was my first cycle. I can't wait to start this next one!
