    blood pressure

    i dont think there is any docs in here. but im in week 2.5 of my deca /sust/dbol cycle. i got my blood pressure read at the machine at the local drugstore. it was 134/55. any possible reason for the low 55?
    age:24
    weight:223 and going up
    height: 6'2''
    deca 600mgs/wk
    sust 500mgs/wk
    dbol 35-40mgs/daily
    i know its a random question..but id like to compare to other ppls readings(i know everyone is diff-and no i dont really have a baseline, other than about 135/80ish normally)

    I would retest yourself, maybe on another machine. I do not believe the 55 is steroids related. When I am on test and dbol , my bp will be around 130/90

    I don't know if I would trust those machines. 55 seems low? My bp goes pretty high when on.

    That machine is no good mate.... get it checked again. Always moniter your BP closely during your cycle, so you no which ones raise your BP more than others. And if you so choose, stay away from them.

    I have had to take dbol away from my cycle, as i think it was the culprit for raising my BP way to high 165/98. I have now increased my cardio abit more and it seems to be coming down well.

    You suffering from low BP is a possibility, but then again should be raised abit from your cycle.

    Good luck.

    those machines are very unstable.. one minute it will be one reading and then the next 30 numbers off.. and if your arms are bigger than a certain amount it will be off.. i wouldnt trust it..

    Those machines really suck because they are made for the average joe. I read on one somewhere that it was made for the "average male arm" of 9"-13"...WTF

    I think that you are correct in saying that. I've been shopping around for a new bp monitor and most of them fit an arm between 9 and 13 inches.

    I would go and buy a bp monitor if you are going to juice. It is well worth the piece of mind.

    You can get a good cuff at Wal Mart or Wallgreens or where ever for about
    $60. What ever the one says at the store,it is wrong. You should think about
    a pulse monitor for when you do cardio. It's even good for when you work out. You would be surprised what your pulse does. It will drop in half when you go from cardio to inversion table. Don't take the drug store stuff seriously. I've even had nurses f--k up. I know cause I just did the cuff.

    thanks guys. well i went to the doc yesterday and had a 150/100 reading. the doc pretty much hinted about me juicing, so i told her. some docs are pretty cool about it. didnt try to scold me or condemn me to hell. not bad.

    That's high. What is your doc going to do about your bp? Is he going to give you bp medicine?

    Yeah, some docs are pretty cool. When I told my doc, he didn't seem happy about it, but he didn't talk it down either.

    Go to an actual clinic and get them to do it with the right equipment, it will make a huge difference...mine is 120/80...even when i was on a really really heavy cycle, it was only 122/75....


    Now about your cycle, why are you running your test dose lower than your weekly deca dose???? Also i hope you are planning on running the test at least 2-3 weeks longer than the deca, and have a good pct in place...i would look at changing your test to about 650mg and having your deca at around 400mg, your results will be better and when you come of fthe deca running the test a little longer will be very benificial to ya...

    ok ive heard that a few times. i think ill take that advice about the deca and test. hows this cycle sound guys...
    deca300-450/mgs week 1-10
    sust250- 750mgs/week 1-12 (shots of 250mgs on MWF's)
    dbol 25mg oral-1.5pills per day(37.5mgs) week 1-6
    i was thinkin about throwin in some anavar right after the dbol til the end of the cycle. what u guys think. ive been readin up a lil on it, and it looks good. and if so, what dose? heres my stats
    24y/o
    6'2''
    225ish
    10-12%bf
    MY GOAL: bulk up, while keeping bodyfat as low as possible.
    ive done 2 cycles previously and did a shitty PCT. didnt know how important it really was til recently. all ive done before was 20mg nolvadex for a couple weeks post cycle. im going to get more into it. i need to pick up a lil more sust, and my pct stuff, along w/ anavar-if i end up using it. just when i thought i knew everything......
