Are Back Pumps Preventable?

[Josann]

I am starting a 30 day cycle of dzine today. I am coming off a bridge to this of osta rx. i plan to run dzine 30 mg. Last cycle i got back pumps bad, and had to cut the cycle to 3 weeks. I used taurine but did not get relief. My other supps will be fish oil, cissus, vitamin d3, whey and creatine. I was thinking that maybe not going so heavy and maybe doing more volume/higher reps, staying away from lower back lifts i.e. no deads, bent over rows, or heavy squats might help. Hyperextensions, lunges instead. Would ibuprophen help at all?

I should also mention that I am 58 and this is my third cycle. I am especially interested in what over 50 guys do, but welcome all suggestions. Thanks.

Maybe you post this in the 35 and older section. There should be more guys in your situation.

What's a "back pump" feel like?

Been asking this lately cuz I honestly don't know. I'm coming off 3 weeks of Epi at 40mg/day and I had to stop doing deadlifts this past week cuz my lower back is hurting - and that never happens. I think it's a muscular strain - not back pumps but ... I dunno it's weird.

Chances are they are back pumps... They are VERY painful. It's tightness that keeps u straight lol

I've been getting "tightness" in my lower back with SD, but I wouldn't call it painful.

Then again, I'm less than 2 weeks in, so I may be in for a ride.
