    high blood pressure?

    Hey guys yesterday was legs and i was sqautting 285 for 10 reps everything was fine. then i went to 6 plates (540 pounds) on the machine sqaut (standing with a pad on each shoulder). When i finished my first set of 10 my head in the brain region was throbbing unbelieveably... Is this high blood pressure? I dont really know what to think about this... Any thoughts would be appriciated thanks.

    it was probably just a blood rush from not breathing while lifting heavy weights.

    still, it's a good idea to get your BP checked while on cycle. what are you taking? I did a cyp cycle a while back and my BP went through the roof! ha.

    I tried a couple of times to do a tri-set of squats/hack squats/leg press. By the time I got to the leg press part of my tri-set my head started pounding so bad I had to quit. I was quite a bit younger and not "on" anything at the time. I don't know for sure why this happened but I am sure it was not blood pressure related.
