Well the story goes as follows...
Two+ weeks ago I developed piriformis syndrome. Long story short I am unable to train lower body AT ALL for a good solid 2 weeks till it calms down. By the way you never want this problem! Anyways... I alternate shots from glute to glute like most sane people do. However I now cant even imagine shooting the right glute due to the injury till a month post recovery. I now am considering either dropping to one shot a week in the left glute or getting brave and doing shots elsewhere. taking in 500 test e / week split in two doses of 250 ... Should I be considering quad shots?... is this the only viable option at this point? tess |

there are other options bro... dealts are a viable option... 1 cc in the dealts would be ideal... im no so sure about the disorder you have and being it seems to deal with your lower body i might be weary... if im mistaken, quad shots are fine... sometimes they are a little more sore for a few days after it, but nothing wrong with putting an inch of metal in your quad and flaring them up for a couple/few days...

I believe you have no business at all cycling whatsoever with such a ghastly synopsis. I would probably go off altogether until I was actually able to train like a normal individual. You could look at it that you need the roids more now to help you recover but I honestly feel that it would be an uneducated decision to do so. Good luck and I wish you a speedy recovery because that is what you are in dire need of, not another injection site. |

I am looking for the test to help with this recovery so to say "go off altogether" contradicts your opinion on helping with the healing process. I encourage feedback but friend take note of what your saying before you try to sound intelligent and helpful to someone looking for advice. ![]() |

regarding the myofacial release, I was warned off it by my chiro/physio therapist...when this all started I did use my foam roller and a tennis ball but I believe that was a huge mistake at the time...again, my chiro/physio both agreed R.I.C.E was the best and smartest route....this is day 4 of no lower body training and it felt slightly better today...I did however get a massage yesterday and it really helped as my hamstring, glute medius, hip flexors, calf etc were rock tight from lack of exercise and favoring the leg...massage over the area injured did not occur at all as it would cause more inflamation...in a weeks time i will be seeing my chiro/physio again and getting their respective opinions as to how i am progressing ... I will mention also that i recieved ultrasound twice since the injury and both times it really felt better...Icing seems to be the only relief administered at home....stretching mildly is recommended only after the first week of layoff...no cardio either which sucks ...well none besides slow to moderate walks on my treadmill to keep bloodflow and energy up ... I tell you this its been a royal fkn pain in the ass, no pun intended... i have injuries all over in the past decade or so of training but none can even come close to this if anyone has had or has the same problem injury i am describing do yourself a favor and lay off it ... totally... i was stupid and felt better two days later and went in and just banged out 12 sets of squats with light weight (225lbs) for like sets of 15 to feel better...the next day it was 2x as bad...as explained by my chiro, this inury being so close to the core is brutal to heal as you activate this muscle in all movements of the lower body... i will keep this thread updated as i have recieved alot of pm's ... i guess this injury is more common than i thought. tess ![]() |
