hey guys i just got my labs back and my estradiol is sitting at 80 after doing 500mg of test a week for the last 6 weeks. is that way to high or is it kind of normal for that dose? i dont really have any side effects right now like no acne or weird moods or anything so im wondering if i even need to start an ai or just leave it alone since i feel fine. what do you guys think should i pop some arimidex or just ride it out if there isnt any issues?
man i feel your pain. shin pumps are actually the worst thing ever lol. have you tried taking extra taurine? i usually do like 5g before i head out and it helps a ton with the tightness.
Honestly i had to just stop jogging and switch to the elliptical for a bit. the impact makes it so much worse when youre on a cycle. maybe try a lower impact cardio for a few weeks?
banana and coconut water are your best friends here. sounds simple but the potassium and hydration makes a huge difference for me. also try to loosen your laces a bit- sometimes that helps the blood flow.
dude the taurine thing is legit. 5-10g a day and they usually go away in like 48 hours. dont drop the dose yet just try the supplements first!
i literally had to stop mid-run yesterday because of this lol so i feel u. it feels like your shins are gonna explode. i find that stretching my calves really well before hand helps keep the front from getting too tight.
are u drinking enough water? usually when mine get that bad its because im dehydrated. try adding some electrolytes to your water bottle and see if that helps at all - good luck man.
it might just be the extra weight youve put on lately too. more muscle = more pressure on the shins when u run. maybe try walking at a steep incline instead of jogging? same burn but way less pump in the shins.
