Halotestin (fluoxymesterone) is a halogenated derivative of 17-alpha-methyltestosterone. Contrary to what one might expect, Halotestin has poor binding to the Androgen Receptor (AR). Presumably the effects of fluoxymesterone are largely non-AR mediated. Halotestin, however, is a rather toxic drug and I consider it to be a poor choice except perhaps pre-contest for those willing to […]

The 2-On, 4-Off Steroid Cycle: A Case Study – Week 4 of Jim’s Experiment
Jim has succeeded in retaining his strength gains, and even on improving his bench press, and has lost as little weight from his peak as could be expected (5 lb) considering that he lost ¾ inch from his waist in weeks 3 and 4. Overall he is now 8 lb heavier with a waist that […]
The 2-On, 4-Off Steroid Cycle: A Case Study
The previous report made of results seen from the 2-on, 4-off cycle did not include any blood work, nor were there any “before” photos taken, and thus there were no “before and after” photos. Numerous readers were interested in learning more about this type of cycle, so a subject who was going to do such […]

Enzymatic Conversions and Anabolic Steroids
Anabolic/androgenic steroids (AAS), when introduced into the body, do not necessarily remain unchanged. Enzymatic processes often convert them to different molecules. This is true of the prohormones as well: androstenedione will not necessarily remain as androstenedione, but some of it will be converted to testosterone. Although that example is well known, many other enzymatic conversions […]

There has been considerable interest from readers in the brief alternating cycle concept that I have previously discussed. Here, I give an example of an actual program that has been used successfully. The athlete who followed this particular program has completed four such six-week cycles (only two of each six weeks featured substantial steroid use), […]

World Anabolic Review Revisited
This month’s article is put together a little differently from usual: rather than holding to any one topic, I will focus on some errors published in World Anabolic Review 1996 (WAR) and offer corrected information in those areas. WAR is probably the best book available to the bodybuilder on the use of anabolic steroids, but […]
