    Deca and Joints

    i'm in 5th week of deca (along with 750mg Sust)
    400mg Weekly (first time with deca)
    and my elbow joints are killing me - i can barely curl 50lbs

    what gives? i thought deca was supposed to work wanders for the joints

    is my deca fake?
    should i up the dose?
    has it not even kicked in yet?

    any suggestions

    i iam already using Glucosomine, MSN, and tons of water and vit c

    Hey G,
    I'm not a super expert for I am fairly new to the game but have used deca for two cycles and everytime I have I felt the effects on my joints within a week. I am just about at week three now and basically have pain free workouts and my wrist was killing me after curls and lat pull-downs before. Now I can curl 20 extra pounds and pull-down the same. I assume you know you shit is legit. Maybe you should up the dose 100 mg.

    Yes Deca is suppose to help with your joints.. Are you adding anything else to your cycle like winny? That is very odd but maybe someone will have a better idea than me. I know I have really bad joint pain and Deca did a great job on it. Maybe your source did not give you deca maybe they mislabeled it??

    I know several guys that use it at doses like 100-200mgs a week and get great pain relief.

    Maybe the higher doses are causing the issue? strange indeed.

    dude i know how you're feeling. i had to slack off on biceps last night because my shoulder was about to fall off. i've been having some crazy joint paints while running deca @ 400mg and test 250 @ 500mg, and of course dbol. but you aren't alone, bump an for answer.

    i'm just confused
    i didnt have this pain before i started the cycle
    and i certainly wasnt expecting to get pain like this with deca

    ive only ever experienced this amount of pain once and that was when i was on winny

    could it be that it just hasnt kicked in yet?
    or is the joint relief meant to come immediately

    Deca kicked in 4-weeks, the one time I used it.

    Is it only when you curl you feel pain?(biceps/back movements.)
    Or is it in pushing movements as well?

    Maybe you have yust developed some tendon-type of injury in your elbow joints.

    its just when i work bi's/tris

    all curling movements and skull crushers

    i am fine with pressing movements
    and all back exercises - although i do get some mild pain with wide grip chins
    and quite a bit with weighted dips

    Try to post this in the Injury/Rehab forum.

    You could also try to PM a member here called "Doc.Sust".
