Weight training for a few days consecutively causes extreme "fight or flight" response

@samson I haven't been feeling many of the symptoms that I attribute to being in the high serotonin state.

Also, wouldn't the cypro make me drowzy? I've heard lots of stories about how it would put people in long periods of sleep.

@solsasha14 Nausea, low appetite, and loose poops all potentially sound like serotonin symptoms. i get a complete reversal of all 3 of those from cypro. such a small dose doesn't make me sleepy, but everyone is different

@solsasha14 they can and in lymph and other tissues.

protein food intake depends on your overall calories. things are better for me on body recomp with way more protein than peatarians reccomend

gelatin protein and calcium probably offsets the thyroid supression of meat protein

@solsasha14 cypro drowsiness mostly goes away after accustomed
imo it makes euphoria that can lead to sleepiness jf you are just sitting around (quite enjoyable)
if you are in the gym and taking caffeine too it will probably just feel good

cypro + carrot salad or other light plant fibres like cucumbers + coffee and juice etc might be really good workout stack. maybe baking soda if you can fit it in

Consider adopting a High Intensity training routine, 1 workout every 4-5 days.

@sneedful how much cypro do you take before working out

[A Former User]

@onliest I haven't tried it like that . anything up to 2mg might be good tho if you are accustomed to it already.

@solsasha14 I doubt 0.5mg would make anyone drowsy, that's a teeny weeny dose

[onliest]

@grymsky90210 i honestly get more tired at 0.5mg than a larger dose. I recall haidut saying on danny's podcast that some of his rower friends take 3-4mg

@onliest do you remember what episode

Interesting. I began workout out again recently as well and have had similar symptoms. Not any nausea but loose stools and upset digestion. I know lifting is a stressful event for the body. My symptoms aren’t as severe as yours but I also take 10 MeO Harmalen every morning which could be reduce symptoms but they definitely get worse through the day and especially post workout. Maybe I’ll try cypro and shift back to a HIT routine and less volume

@grymsky90210 one of the earlier ones I'm not certain
