Hi every one Im new to the site, Im currently on my 4th cycle. First cycle was test p 100mg eod second cycle was test e 600mg a week and my thered cycle was test p and tren a (fyi my favorite cycle). I have been off since the new year cutting down to about 9%. now three weeks ago i started my winter bulking cycle of test 400 and i have never felt anything like it befor. i was told befor hand what i was getting into but i went for it any ways. my question is will taking anti-inflamatory like naproxin hurt my gains?

NSAID (non steroidal anit inflamiatory drugs) shouldn't make any difference in gains. Large doses over a period of time can have effects on kidney function. I prefer ibuprofen for injection pain at 600-800mg. Personally my first suggestion would be to get on AR-R and buy some sterile cottonseed oil and cut you're test 1:1 with it. Yes its more liquid to inject but its definitley worth the reduction in pain. I use test 450 and uncut its extremely painfull. And i wouldn't pin it ever again without cutting it. Thats why i like EQ its great for cutting painfull things like high dose test or prop.

Ah, the old sustanon shuffle (named for the soreness of sust 400 shots) I don't know if anyone told you before you began using it, but test 400 is known for injection site soreness. I used it back in 2004 and it was murder if it was not cut. I used to cut it down with grapeseed oil and slightly warm it by letting it sit in a glass of warm water for a couple of minutes. That really seemed to help. I'm not sure if this is correct, but I was told the reason for the soreness is the high BA content that has to be used to suspend that much test in one ml of oil. Try cutting and warming, also, don't be afraid of a big needle. Something that thick does not like the 25 gauge. I use no smaller than a 23 gauge for test injections.

Yes i was told to cut it with grape seed oil but it seems like alot of trouble (I've never had to cut anything). Im useing a 23g 1.5 for glutes and 1inch for delts and quads. I think the delts hurt the worse but i have quads this week i normaly do very well with quads with other compounds but we shall see with this t4.

cutting isn't much trouble if you buy the oil already sterile all you have to do is draw from 2 vials. Its worth not having the pain
