Where did the strength go??

[timvds]

i realized at the end of my last cycle that my strength increased into clomid therapy. it seemed that the more the AS was getting out of my system, the stronger i got.

now, one week into my next cycle, i feel the my strength decreasing. im still pushing the same weight and all, but i get tired between sets. less motivated, dont get me wrong though, ive already gained 10 lbs this week. actually in the last 6 days.

anyone else experiance this? i heard people mention you lose some strength during a cycle sometimes. any reason why?

any insight would be apprectiated. thanks

Any changes in your diet maybe? Or maybe sleep.

Only thing I can really think of.

[timvds]

actually yeah come to think of it.. i sleep better when off cycle. i eat like a freakin horse on or off cycle so it cant be that.

anyone else get f'ed up dreams when youre on cycle? freaky shit like hurting people?? i mean, i wake up so pissed off sometimes i cant sleep. im not the only one am i?

[Dr.Evil]

is the cycle the same? like jdogg said, diet or sleep changes?

[timvds]

no diet changes really, but sleep changes yeah. as i stated above

Nothing beats a mid day nap and evening work out

Granted you have time to take one :/

I get those dreams too bro. But about the strenghth decrease I went through it my first three weeks of my cycle 2yrs ago. The reason why I think it happened to me was cause I knew I had started cycling and I just was depending too much on the gear alone to get me stronger. So I kind of slacked mentally cause I figured I would get stronger anyway. Then I got serious and said fuck it. I started eating right and around week four. Boom.. I felt the sust and deca blast off. One of my best cycles ever. But remember to eat and sleep right!!!!!

[timvds]

nah, its not that. my diet and routine are in check. i dont think its a mental thing at all... but the sleep thing, i get to bed about 11pm and wake up at 8. but i dont hink i sleep worth a damn at night. i wake up groggy as hell and i have these fked up drems about every night. i think that might be the problem.

any suggestions? and no, i dont want to take xanax or any other opiate. thanks

Hey I'm sorry I don't have any suggestions but I have the f'd up dreams too. Mine are always me in the weight room or give advise. I can 't sleep and by the time my dreams get normal its almost time to wake up. I wa thinking about trying some kind fo sedative I don't know. Maybe that will help...

[timvds]

most of mine are real life situations. fighting with people i know or love. catching my g/f cheating and beating the hell out of her or fighting with people i work with. i know it sounds fked up and all but i never have these kind of dreams when off cycle.

all the test flowin through my system i guess

[Nico]

I dont know what to tell u bro. But Whenever I have dreams about f..king people up. Like the ones u have. The next day I usually tell the person what I did to them in my dream, and I usually never have dreams like that with the same person ever again. Im not suggesting you do the same thing, because it can lead to a real fight. But thats what I do. .......Good luck with the dreams bro.

[timvds]

i think its the fina causing the dreams and all, but i dont want to stop using it ill figure it out though, thanks for the replies

from what i have heard your testoerone is highest in the morning. so what my geuss is, is that as your test builds all night it creates aggresion in your subconscious. i dunno, but thats the conclusion i came to in my last cycle. i always wanted to go buck wild in the morning, so i think its just the build up of everything. i tried some breathing techniques before i went to bed and it seemed to calm things a touch.
