    What am I feeling????

    This isn't something horrible or bothering me, it's just very weird.

    Every since I started my cycle (i'm on week 7), i've been getting these weird feelings in my tendons in certain places:

    - Back of my heel (Achilles tendon)
    - Glute/Hamstring tendons
    - Forearm tendons (it happens the most here)
    - Tendon on the underside of the arm near the elbow under the tricep

    What i'm feeling is this very strange pulling/stretching sensation whenever I move the said areas, but it only happens when I move the area either very quickly or when the joint has been locked in the contracted position for a lengthy period of time (for example, when holding the telephone up to my ear and then extending my arm after i'm done). It doesn't hurt, it's just a very weird pulling/stretching/contracting sensation. I have never felt this feeling prior to my cycle, and this weird sensation if I recall correctly, began at about week 3 or 4. This does not happen in the gym. Only at home or when i'm just moving around normally.

    I'm using Test E @ 300mg a week. Aromasin @ 5mg every 3 days (so don't say it's the AI messing with my joints, because im using it at a super low dose and infrequently).

    So, has anyone had this before? what is this? Could this be my body adjusting to the new weight i've put on? My last weigh-in was at the beginning of last week (which was week 6) and I gained 25 lbs. since the beginning of the cycle.

    Hmm I wonder why this never happened prior to the cycle, then.

    I train each muscle group once every 6 days, training every other day at the gym, so i'm at the gym 4x a week. I train in a Mike Mentzer HIT style (1-2 really heavy hard sets to failure per muscle. 3 sets maximum.)

    Yup, for sure. But salt intake has remained moderate. I haven't lowered it. I use salt in about 3 of my 6 meals everyday, so it might be that. But I don't see how that could do anything with the tendons (or at least it FEELS like it's the tendons giving me that feeling I described above).
