funky biceps

Been struggling to get back into the gym following my contest, because of this damn bloat! Having trouble moving much at all, everything is sore, etc. Started doing some cardio, and it's helping a bit, and started back dieting yesterday, so hoping to see some improvement.

Anyway, did arms yesterday, and my freaking biceps were about to explode! They litterally felt like they were going to rip out of the skin, same with my forearms. I should have measured them, I bet they were nearly 18". It was weird, though - I had 2 peaks, and kind of a band right in the middle where the real peak should have been, but it was indented there. I'm guessing that's the facia not being stretched there? Looked really strange.

I ended up cutting my workout a little short because I was just too pumped. I'm guessing it's the bloat, especially since I'd only had 24g of carbs in the 18 hours or so before working out.

btw, I'll try and take a pic so you guys can laugh at me. This is so different than a week ago - at contest time, I had (for me) and incredible peak in my bicep (same one, my right one). I did do one injection since then, and of course this is post workout as opposed to cold or just a light pump workout... I have to think it's the water/bloat, and the bicep being so swolen that the facia is restricting it in the middle. Definitely going to move my injection point, though

Yeah bro I had the same thing...when I would wake up in the morning I could not even get my hands to my face....But the sad thing is that it wont last long....Mine lasted about 8 days....I lost it and I thought I was doing something wrong but it was just my body getting used to the carbs again....really sucks....cant wait for next time.....Plus I was using sling and that really rocked my body with the carbs.....have fun with it while it lasts..

my biceps pump like that anyway, even though they're freakin' pathetic....I can't hardly stand the pain most times

Where is that pic?

No pic? Doing better?

No, I'll take one and post it, hopefully today

Al I had the same thing...these pumps are unreal! I have legs today this should be really fun lol!

I did legs yesterday too... I thought my quads were going to get horribly pumped, but it was my hammies!

I cant walk today...damn my legs lol
