No sodium = no pump. Period.

T4 turning into too much T3 = hello insomnia.

Blood flow issue, not a muscle issue.

Dose timing matters more than people think.

If glycogen’s empty, pumps will be too.

You’re dry, not jacked.

Resting HR up? That’s your clue.

High BP meds or AI too high will nuke pumps fast.

Sleep issues usually show up before labs go sideways.

Split dose or lower it and see what happens.
