Pain in joints, cant go heavy on bench!

Unfortunately your not a kid anymore, and you have to start listening to your body. Basically what happened is your muscles got stronger then your tendons with respect of course. Now your elbow tendons are strained and time is the only thing to heal them, you may need to stop benching period for a couple months. If your ego is uncontrollable use wraps for your elbows and keep it light, but it will be the natural progression to go heavier and heavier...right? Imo opion unless done natty, especially at the beginning of a new journey(AAS) your muscle to tendon ratio strength wise would be something like 3:1

well I did about 3 months of intense lifting before I started running cyp and deca. I run 2 ml a week. since the end of jamuary. I figured the deca would take care of the joint and tendon strength. I can max out on tricept extensions. that's what has me puzzled is I went backwards on bench. I was told to go dumbells only for a month and see how that works. ill try anything at this point that doesn't involve sitting out lol
