Pumps in the gym aren’t at all what they used to be I used to walk around with a pump almost all day as of lately I feel flat or deflated does anyone know what this is from or how I can reverse it?

What does your pre workout meal look like? Are you bulking or cutting?

Pre workout meal is usually oats and some sort of protein or pasta and chicken currently I’m maintaining till mid April
I’d switch oats and pasta out for white rice my man. Those are both a slow digesting carb.

I’d also suggest an intra but if you’re going for maintenance I wouldn’t add any additional cals.

I’ll switch it up to white rice and see what that does I mean I guess I’m comparing to when I was on cycle it’s been a while since so I just feel like I’m not what I used to be

You can use anything for anything but Anavar and NPP, to me, have differing goals. I’d drop any oral altogether. Masteron also typically for cutting and low low body fat.

Test NPP and primo if you can afford it. EQ may be a good option too assuming a bulk

If you’ve always done an oral your liver and GI can be overworked and/or screaming for a break. Orals are usually one of the first things to fuck your appetite.

400-600mg. It’s a very easy add. No extreme sides etc. good clean gains but slow. Gotta run it for fairly long and it’s pricey at those doses. Could also be bad on the hair

In addition to carbs, sodium helps a lot too. I like to add 1-1.5g sea salt to my pre workout for pumps. There’s a good amount of evidence that sodium does a lot for performance. Definitely more so than none at all.

Another cost effective option for pumps is injectable l-carnitine. Very cheap to make (google)
