Get 10% bodyfat or under and it doesn't even matter if you have a pump or not.

>Is my mind playing tricks on me?

You on the pump is your pump-off self in 12 months, if you don't fuck up.
But in 12 months, you'll still think the same, since your standards increase with your gains.

>Stood in favorable lighting
>"Damn, I look fucking great"
>Stood in the cold light of day
"Damn I'm dyel as fuck"

Same thing here. After my chest workout today my chest and shoulders were exploding with size and I looked so huge, then later when the pump was gone, I went back to semi-dyel mode.

Gym have perfect anabolic lightning. Depending on the light source you can look either dyel or ripped wheny you're natty
