    Im on ARATEST 500mg a week and I noticed the exact same thing, basically feels like its harder to get air in!!! Personally i have high blood pressure do to AAS but thats just my body!! THATS most likely the problem i think!!! I also was around 170 when I started 8 weeks ago and I just hit 195 yesterday so forsome reason i feel like im fat but im not maybe its from the sudden weight gain.
    GO to your local grocery store and check your BP
    LATER

    Well it not so much the bigger number, its the smaller one you got to watch. For some weird reason if u were around this area i would defiantly think about stopping all AAS 170 100, or get on some blood presure meds. I stay around 150 to 160, 70 to 80 while on and while off im usually around 105to 115, 50 to 60. High blood pressure leads to many possible health risks.
    WATCH yourself carefully!!

    the problem is your bodies ability to deal with the rapid weight gain and all the food you stuff your face with to get the rapid weight gain. you may also have increased bp but in my experience and what i have seen with the weight gain comes the shortness of breath. either deal with it or come off cycle.

    so whats your BP?

    you need to be under 140 about tops systolic. if your over that on cycle, you need to come off. much above 140 is unhealthy

    Totallyjust kidding ofcourse....Is this you 1st cycle??...because i prolly would have started with just test250/eq200 at your weight...poss switched out the eq w/deca ...always good to start with low dosage then build up...imo...but i'm no expert just humble opinion/advice....

    Your shortness of breath is probably due to testosterone causing water retention and perhaps high blood pressure. Your heart will work harder even at rest when intravascular volume goes up. To reduce water retention you need to limit conversion of testosterone to estrogen (ie. Anasteozole, Letrozole ), block the estrogen receptor (ie. tamoxifen ), or use diuretics. I don't recommend unsupervised diuretic use, however.

    top number. Not quite sure about the advise of having to come off of systolic blood pressure is over 140 (that's considered borderline hypertension).

    I agree that 140 systolic is too high. Considering that you're talking about athletes whose bp should be around 110/70, 140 is really high. I guess it all depends on the baseline bp. If the systolic is normally 130, then that's not that big a jump, but from 110 to 140, that's big. Especially in so short a time, given a normal cycle and how quickly bloat comes on under normal circumstances.

    one area tha A-A-S (not ass) is of NO help is endurance. Endurance athletes rarely use juice for anything casue it actually hinders endurance although not dramatically.

    There cou;ld ne other issues at plauy here though. I would look at diet, allergies and any other suppliments you are taking. Too much Vitamin D is toxic and will cause exhaustion.

    I had the same issue during the middle of my first cycle, went to a doctor, and my BP was through the roof 191/135...was immeadeatly put on bp medicine, two types..procardia and ziac. Insurance covered em, it think i paid about 13 bucks for my monthly script. Needless to say my bp is normal now 110/52 last time doctor checked, about 2 weeks ago. one good thing about getting on this type of bp meds is that one of em is actually a diuretic....heheh, nothing like losing water retention when on a d-bol/test cycle. worked out real nice

    I've had the same problem - the steroids are usually not going to help you aerobically although EQ is supposed to increase your red blood cell count, making you more efficient at using oxygen. Generally, though, I think it's going to hurt. That's why a number of endurance athletes (rugby, hockey, boxing) on this board only cycle off-season or in between fights so they can perform.

    I've been trying to find a good combination that minimizes the impact on endurance. I would say deca , oxandralone, winny are ok (with some test thrown in to keep in balance). Tren , dbol , larges doses of test are going to hurt you aerobically. Halo I haven't tried but fighters use it to prep for a fight.
