hard to breathe?

**ranging1** · 08-03-2009, 03:40 AM

OK im currently running a cycle of test ethanthate 500mg weekly, split into 2

im finding now that when i workout, after ie done a heavy set im breathing alot heavier then i use to and my heart rate is through the roof like ive just ran a marathon, after a set i literally have to sit down and catch my breathe

does anyone experience this when they cycle?

i think you should check your blood pressure. tren has this effect but 500 of test? what week are you on? unless youve gained an insane amount of weight that your central nervous/cardiovascular system isnt use to yet, (unlikely) keep an eye on BP.

im neally into week 6, havent had my blood pressure checked so i will
but i naturally have a very low blood pressure, e.g i use to faint alot, something i was born with, so wouldnt think steroids would be able to raise my blood pressure that high
im not taking arimadex
but how does water weight cause this
ive gained 9 kg in almost 6 weeks, which i wouldnt call insane
i ALWAYS STAY hydrated

I was taking enanthate 500-750mg p/w and had the same problem. I wasnt doing cardio and figured the shortness of breath was caused by the synthetic test in my body and the increased workout loads and body weight, i was also taking 3i.u of HGH per day. I addeed 10-15min of cardio (medium pace sprinting) into my work out routines to increase my lung capcity, it reduced the shortness of breath problem almost completly and reduced the heart rate slightly (my heart rate rise may have been caused by the growth though) Not sure if thats the 100% correct answer but it worked for me. Hope that helps.

already thought of that, but i already do some cardio, im also fairly lean

i think ill get my blood pressure checked aswell as cholestrol

Definetly check your blood pressure and next workout measure your heart beats per minute. You have gained a lot of weight maybe increase the cardio a bit 25-30 min at 70% gradually offcourse. I remember experiencing this but with trenbolone acetate. I could not do cardio at all. I've never done test e so I can't be that much help. Hope you get everything sorted out.

water can do this just the same way fat does it! The substance, whatever it is, pushed against the organs lungs, etc and causes this problem! if you are really bloated this could very easily happen!
