So I have gotten some time off of work and have been thinking of doing a eq test e cycle. I have gotten hit by a limb while I was cutting and was hit in the head. I was wondering if I will be fine doing a cycle after a head injury? Blood was coming out of my ears and I had a concussion. So am I safe to run a cycle or should I wait to make sure everything is fine it was about a week ago?

I do but I get major headaches. I still push through the workout but don’t go heavy because my head starts pounding. Which sucks cause I hit my new pb on the bench which is 305 the week before and now I cant go to heavy.

That sounds awesome ( only said this about the PB) but I don’t think you should start a cycle, have you seen a Dr. to make sure nothing major is going on?

I’ll give it some time than. I did not go see a doctor after I woke up I went back to work. It made for a long day. So after I couldn’t work anymore I just grabbed a 12 pack of Pabst and went back to the hotel. Than my boss told me to take sometime off to recover from that and my broken ribs. I just figured it was a concussion.

Start a cycle while recovering from head trauma.

Go back to 12+ hour days logging mid cycle.


Sounds like a lousy idea to me....
ya I’ll definitely listen to your twos advice and give it some time. I have till September off it’s the slow season with all of the rain and he told me to wait till busy season it’s not worth getting hurt for the junk we have to cut rate now. So I’ll just be working on the machinery till busy season is here. That’s why I was considering the cycle rate now.

Bleeding from your ears from head trauma? No doctor?

assuming you don't have health insurance then?

You've seemed pretty sharp until this thread:)

maybe you should get your head checked out.

No I actually have really good health insurance. I just never go to the doctor. I know it’s pretty stupid I just hate going to hospitals but your right I’ll go get checked out this week. I figured I woke up so I’m good to go!

You had bleeding from your ears, still getting bad headaches and you got knocked out by what i can only assume was a larger sized log???

You need to either go to a doctor or go to an emergency room, you need a head CT done to make sure there is no injury or bleeding in there.

I would also avoid lifting and taking anything cycle wise until you did this.

Definitely wanna get that checked. No reason to tough out a serious head trauma. You want to be on top of your game going into a cycle otherwise it makes no sense to have to tone it down when you be killing it. Give your self enough time to get back to that pb and make sure your able to crush it

Good deal, it’s very likely that nothing is inured. But with enough force that is broke a hard hat and the symptoms you had, to not get checked is just playing with fire. I’ve seen people with intercrainial bleeds from much less force.

Good on you for listening to reason. Instead of asking a question, not liking the answer and still going on with whatever you wanted to do.

Glad you went to the doctor bro ...I’ve seen too many minor injuries turn bad because people are too tough to see the doc...hang in there..get fully recovered..the gear will still be here when you’re better.

Don't fuk with a head injury man, it takes a lot of force to break a hard hat, and depending on the quality of your hard hat your head absorbed a lot of blunt force trauma. Glad you're getting looked at.
