Well I did it. Gained LBS and raised BP

[Dado5]

This is the seccond attempt to gain weight and keep BP low. Didnt work again
I usually weight about 235 to 240 lbs and BP is fine. As soon as i go over 245 BP rockets up.


First attempt gained 12 lbs in 6 weeks. BP went up to 150/100 i thought it is b/c of Dbol, stopped using it but kept weight at 252. BP didnt go down untill i lost 10 lbs then it went back to normal.

Now at my sec. attempt i gained 10lbs in 4 weeks and BP went up 145/95.
Went from 239 lbs to 249 lbs

Im 6'3 and need to gain weight. I'm trying to get ready for sacramento show this year ..Not sure if ill be able to gain over 250 if BP keeps going up, and i need weight for my height.

Cardio doesnt help much. doing 4 days a week for 30 min.

What else can i do to keep BP low?

ten pounds in 4 weeks cant be all muscle so im guessing the bloat or water is your problem, try to be more consistant with low dose smaller more gradual gains. There usually better gains anyways, because once you start your show diet your gonna loose all the water anyway.

True. Theres some water weight from Dbol. I cut the sodium intake.
Problem is i try to gain gradually but for some reason my weight jumps up a lot.

Dado,

Just wondering, my bp goes through the roof every time i take dbol at all. I usually only go with 10mg day if i do it all and honestly even that tends to make me feel uncomfortable. have you tried bulking without it? I am just wondering because i know that dianabol makes me very uncomfortable.

I tried bulking without it and did gain some. Considering that 5 years ago i was 160 lbs
I take 50mg of dbol, makes me feel good and strong at the gym but it does give me some breathing issues.
Ill cut dbol this sunday and just stay on sust and deca.

Funny thing i just talked to my doctor , he knows what i am doing and using. He said i have 2 options, stop using it or just live with it till i bulk up and then cut down.
Dont have headaches or any symptoms of high BP. Im fine till i check it then anxiety kicks in, im kind of hypochondriac

I am the same as you. I noticed that when i get to a certain weight, i feel like crap for the first week or two. Then after i stabilize and hold it for a week or two, it starts feeling more natural

So you didn't consider consider asking him for Diovan or anything along that line? I'd look into it, personally.

Didnt ask him. Not sure if i should start that yet.

bump the other guy. go to a doc and get a antihypertensive or lose weight. having high bp is one of the worst things you can do to yourself.

hmm

strange how nobody said just don't gain any more wgt---that's not what you want to hear bro, but seriously--is it that important to risk your health for extra lbs? your body is telling you something, be smart and listen

 

[notsobig32]

So we are on a bodybuilding board and dado loves what he does. He monitors his health and gets regular check-ups. I personally don't think its the weight thats getting him, i think before he abandons getting any bigger, try dropping the dbol and see where you stand.

bro i believe its the water not the weight, try tbol or var for strength instead of dbol!

 

[notsobig32]

Or better yet stop orals if they are not needed. You can get pretty amazing gains off of reasonable doses of injectables. There is deefinitely value to orals but if they are causing health issues stick with test and your other compound.

This is just my 2 cents.

He said bp went up on dbol, then even after stopping dbol it stayed elevated.

some people cannot handle being over a certain weight--whether water/fat/muscle weight. Sure you can try Hawthorn, celery seed--and a host of other things...making sure electros are balanced is also helpful (most folks get more sodium then potassium and it should be the other way around)...

then some people just can't handle the weight, pure and simple. I would drop some weight and get the bp under control--then do plenty of research on what he can do to help bp before attempting to gain again. He knows for sure he can lower it by dropping weight---having bp around 145/95 - 150/100 is not the time to experiment

 

[Dado5]

I will cut dbol and try not to gain much weight. Will monitor my BP and if it doesn’t go down,, well ill have to drop below 240 again. Sucks but as you guys said health is more important.

yep i have bigorexia

there is no avoiding the high blood pressure. your body is designed to hold a certain amount of weight, this varies a bit according to genetic predispostion. what does not vary is that you are human, there is a maximum size for humans. when you encroach on this maximum there are some un-avaiodable side efffects.

 

[Dado5]

I managed to drop BP down to 130/80
Started taking momre fish oil and niacin, Ameal BP (ameal peptide) , Cq10 and 81 mg aspirin with phytosterols.
And i can also breathe much easier
