Q: I was talking with a friend of mine at the gym today who is a very experienced bodybuilder and trainer. He basically informed that the more “juice” you do over time, the more steroids you will require in the future. Do you have to “continually” up the dosage amount to keep or gain more […]

Passing Anti-Doping Test After Finishing Steroid Cycle?

What is the Effect of Anabolic Steroids on Burning Fat?
Q: “What is the effect of AAS on burning fat? I know that AAS increase your resting metabolic rate (a necessary condition of increased anabolism). But is that all?

Is Deca Dick Caused by Elevated Prolactin Levels from Nandrolone?
Q: Is “Deca Dick” caused by increased prolactin levels from nandrolone decanoate? A: The problem with this is that it is from no evidence. It’s the kind of statement that if true would be quite provable: prolactin is measurable.

How Does Testosterone Replacement Therapy Affect Anti-Doping Tests?
Q: MMA fighter Chael Sonnen failed two anti-doping tests which revealed that he used exogenous testosterone. At his recent hearing, his defense was that he was on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). My question is, how would TRT effect the T/E ratio? Does exogenous testosterone also shutdown epitestosterone production creating a scenario where someone can have a high ratio […]
