Bigger right after

Does anyone notice that they seem much bigger the 30 minutes after a workout than the rest of the time? I wish I could keep that look all the time.

It's called a "pump." Comes from increased bloodflow

If you feel it getting too tight, you need to take a razor and let out some of the blood

Nitrogen Dioxide? that's not good at all! If you want to keep the feeling just lift some weights periodically or if you're at school or work, raise your backpack or laptop in it's case with your arm really fast. For the chest just randomly do pushups, for the legs just flex them periodically. You get the picture.

NO2 is just the name of the product, its actually nitric oxide that gives your body that pump, your body naturally produces it just enough to last.

Ohhh, so it's really a misnomer!

I'm like, why would anyone be injecting toxic gas into their bodies?

ya, it's natural. muscle fibres have torn, and will begin the process of healing itself.

no doubt, if i looked like i just worked out all the time, that would be hype.

I noticed that too.

It also sucks when your 6 pack turns into a keg after drinking a couple bottles of water.
