Chemist with a question

[Doctor9]

Well, I took the plunge (no pun intended) and started a cycle. The important details for the question are as follows:

At this moment I just passed the 1 week point since the start of cycle - Test E 400mg/wk, EQ 500mg/wk, Dbol 50mg/day (first 4 weeks only). I have been told that by now I should be feeling the famous/infamous Dbol pump, however, the chemist part of me wonders......

If I'm using an AI, thereby limiting converstion to Estrogen, and it's known that most of Dbol's rapid gain effect is due to water retention, might not the AI minimize the pump as well? It only seems logical that if you're not retaining a huge amount of extra water, you're less likely to get the intense pumps (more normal blood volume).

Is my reasoning sound? There *is* a reason I'm a chemist, not a *biochemist*

Thoughts, anyone?

lol kinda right/wrong water does give a pump but not the pump ur thinking of
and unless ur using letro ur bloat wont relaly be nerfd Ldex helps but nothing amazing.

cant explain it but i mean if u think of tren GIVES SOLID DRY GAINS.. yet gives the greatest pumps EVER.. hmm.. rbc increase or something

It will have some effect on the pump, but not an extraordinary amount. improved nitrogen and creatine uptake in the muscle allow for greater expendature. If you suppress your estrogens you will gain less tho, cause 1) estrogens are needed for growth hormone production and 2) less water for leverage translates to less strength which means less muscle stimulation and thus less adaptation.

I think that cramping and pumps is mainly the AAS playing around with your sodium, calcium, and potassium levels.
