1) The Steroid Interviews begins with a look at Major League Baseball. This is the first time a professional baseball player has gone on record outlining his drug program for improving performance.
Below is the drug cycle he used for the 2000 MLB season. I can describe the interviewee as follows. He has a reputation for being one of the stronger players in the league and has been given All Star honors in addition to accolades for his play at bat and on the field. Due to the chance he could be identified, these awards, the dates of reception, and the number of times each has been received will not be listed.
The drug programs used for this athlete are planned a year in advance. Cycles are kept brief and utilize orals, limited amounts of injectable Testosterone, and recombinant human growth hormone (rHGH) as well as an estrogen blocker, an aromatase inhibitor, and a biguanide insulin-potentiating agent (for definitions of these and other drugs, see the drug guide at the end of the article).
The following protocol was used 14 weeks prior to the opening of the 2000 MLB season:
Week(s) 1-3
20 mg/d Winstrol tablets
200 mg/wk testosterone cypionate (generic)
20 mg/d Nolvadex
1 mg/d Arimidex
Week(s) 4-7
25 mg/d Anadrol
300 mg/wk testosterone cypionate (generic)
20 mg/d Nolvadex
1 mg/d Arimidex
4 IU/d rHGH
500 mg metformin taken with meals
Week(s) 8-9
10 mg/d Oxandrin
20 mg/d Nolvadex
1 mg/d Arimidex
2500 IU HCG every other day
Week(s) 10-11
20 mg/d Nolvadex
Week(s) 12-14
No drugs used
His in season drug protocol consists of non-stop use of rHGH, Testosterone cypionate, or a Testosterone ester blend (Sostenon), with oxandrolone. Drugs are taken on a continuous basis with dosages periodically shifting if excessively tired, or in cases of injury. The details of the in season cycle will be available when the book is published.
Immediately after the season he takes an 8-week lay off from both training and drugs. This time is used to rejuvenate his body and mind. After the season he is mentally and physically drained and needs a break. The time away from training is more mental than a physiologic need for recovery. The toll a season of Major League Baseball takes on your life is considerable. In addition to having to perform up to the parameters of a high dollar salary, players must simultaneously deal with family issues, wives, girlfriends (sometimes both), and various matters of business. The lifestyle of professional sports affects some players more than others, but for this athlete a post season break in the action is an indispensable part his program.
Compound Drug Classification
Anadrol Oral anabolic/androgenic steroid
Arimidex Oral P450 aromatase enzyme inhibitor, used to prevent estrogen conversion from androgen
HCG Injectable peptide hormone used to stimulate testicular production of endogenous testosterone
rHGH Injectable peptide hormone used to decrease body fat and stimulate protein synthesis
Metformin Oral medication improves insulin sensitivity, increases peripheral tissue glucose uptake and utilization by skeletal muscle
Nolvadex Oral estrogen receptor blocker
Oxandrin Oral anabolic/androgenic steroid

2) What you are about to read is the actual drug cycle used by an IFBB male professional bodybuilder preparing for Joe Weiders 1995 Mr. Olympia contest, the most illustrious and coveted title in bodybuilding. Its the first time this information has ever been published. This IFBB professional bodybuilder entrusted me with bringing the information public upon my assurance of his anonymity. Ill describe him as follows:
This bodybuilder is one of the largest individuals ever to compete. He keeps copious records and what youll read below was taken directly from his competition notebook. The only word I can use to describe him is enormous. He ranges from 280 to 300 pounds in the off-season and approximately 275 pounds at contest (his exact contest weight cannot be published). Without a doubt he is one of the largest bodybuilders of the modern era. This man is one the few bodybuilders who makes a living from the sport and has appeared thousands of times in the pages of both FLEX Magazine and Muscle & Fitness.
To date, as a result of his drug use, this individual has suffered no major drug-related health problems (i.e. any condition that would place him in the hospital). But, he has suffered side effects, which in the future could contribute to serious illnesses or an untimely death. These side effects were reported to me by the athlete and with permission I verified the information with his personal physician. The following is the verified list of side effects that this IFBB professional has suffered directly due to his use of physique altering drugs: altered HDL/LDL ratio (several times hes had a level of zero HDL cholesterol), temporary disturbance of normal liver function, severe hypogonadism, low sperm count, and mild depression. What does the future hold in regards to his health? No one can tell for sure.

The Steroid Interviews Drug Guide Part II
Aminoglutethimide Taken because the drug possesses the ability to inhibit the conversion of androgens to estrogens via the aromatase enzymatic pathway, also used as an adrenocortical suppressant (believed by bodybuilders to be an anti-catabolic agent).
Clenbuterol A selective beta-2-agonist, used as a lipolytic agent to decrease body fat.
Dromostanolone An injectable anabolic/androgenic steroid used for muscle gain and muscle hardness.
Ephedrine Stimulant drug used to decrease body fat and secondarily used as a pre-workout stimulant/antidepressant.
Formyldienolone Injectable anabolic/androgenic steroid used for its ability to cause local muscle inflammation and hence make small muscle groups appear larger or more pronounced.
Growth hormone Injectable peptide hormone used to decrease body fat and stimulate protein synthesis.
Mesterolone An oral anabolic/androgenic steroid. Drug does not metabolize to estrogen, and has been reported by steroid users to block the estrogen receptor. This claim has not been substantiated by science.
Methandrostenolone Oral anabolic/androgenic steroid.
Methenolone enanthate Injectable anabolic/androgenic steroid.
Nandrolone decanoate Injectable anabolic/androgenic steroid.
Nandrolone phenpropionate Injectable anabolic/androgenic steroid.
Oxandrolone Oral anabolic/androgenic steroid.
Testosterone Injectable anabolic/androgenic steroid.
Tiratricol Thyroid drug used for decreasing bodyfat.
Testolactone Oral drug used to prevent the estrogen related side-effects of high dose androgen administration.
Tolbutamide Oral sulfonylurea drug, used to increase insulin release from the pancreas and increase the sensitivity of peripheral tissues to insulin.
Trenbolone hexahydrobenzylcarbonate Injectable anabolic/androgenic steroid.
Stanozolol Injectable anabolic androgenic steroid.

3) Player Description
This individual played college ball at a major Division I school. He began using steroids as a junior in high school when it became apparent he had the chance to get a scholarship from a big school. In his senior season he kicked ass and was heavily recruited. While in college, he continued using drugs. The college program where he played was not what he called a drugged program (the coaches did not sanction drug use), but, there were many players using and the strength coach would assist the football players in designing drug cycles when they requested help.
The strength coach would also allow players to use his university account to make long distance phone calls for drugs, even though he did not directly procure steroids for his athletes. Interestingly, our interviewee said the best advice he received in college was from his collegiate offensive line coach.
When it became known to the coaching staff that our athlete was using drugs, the line coach took him aside and said, "Steroids do not make a great athlete, it takes more than steroids to make a football player." It was advice that stuck with him throughout his career, and while he continued to use, his application of performance enhancing drugs is only a part of the overall program (see cycle below). His drug use compliments his hard work and is not the sole reason for his success in the league. The drugs, along with his dedication to training and work ethic are what have made him a force in the NFL.
Our interviewee was a late round draft pick in the 90s (specific year and order of selection will not be provided). Despite not having a great showing in the draft, he has far outperformed what was predicted of him, which he attributes to hard work more so than drugs.
For around a decade, hes had a great career fighting each Sunday in the muddy, blood-soaked trenches of the NFL. As a lineman, hes got to be strong, quick, and mobile, especially in the offensive scheme run by his present team. His physique exemplifies athleticism. He is also known as a ferocious hitter and is a man who commands respect from other athletes and management around the league. Weighing around 295 pounds (+/- 20 lbs.), he benches close to 600 pounds and runs the 40 in under 4.8 seconds.
Stop and think for a minute about what youve just read. This is a man who weighs in excess of 300 pounds but can run like the wind and has unbelievable strength. Spending time around any pro athlete is a humbling experience, but this is especially evident when you spend time around a defensive or offensive lineman who has successfully played in the NFL. These men are amazing physical specimens.
The Drug Cycle
The cycle outlined below began in the off-season and follows a yearly plan that takes our lineman through the regular season and post-season if needed. Its design is basic, yet highly effective for developing strength and mass in the spring and summer, then shifts focus to maintenance and injury prevention during the fall season.
Orals and short acting injectables are used when drug testing is not a factor. For the in season cycle he relies solely upon Testosterone and rHGH. Side effects experienced from his drug use are as follows: HDL/LDL cholesterol ratio shift, temporary abnormal liver function values (only seen during off-season cycle), and gynecomastia. He has had no major health problems to date as a result of his steroid use. As with all of the athletes interviewed for the book, only time will tell if their current drug use impacts their health status later in life.
Drugs are procured from several sources including two doctors (one in Texas and one in California), from Europe, and from a family member who travels frequently to Mexico. He said he has no problem getting rHGH in large quantities from physicians in the United States. For the most part all his drugs are procured domestically from physicians who treat athletes, members of the entertainment community, and other wealthy individuals.
From his training log, here is his yearly cycle as it was provided
Off-Season Cycle
Week / Drug(s)
1 4ml generic injectable stanozolol (50 mg/ml), 2ml Sostanon (250 mg/ml)
2 Repeat
3 Repeat
4 4ml European injectable Primobolan (100mg/ml), 4 ml generic Testosterone cypionate (200mg/ml), 25mg/day American Anadrol
5 Repeat
6 Repeat
7 3ml generic Testosterone propionate (200 mg/ml)
8 2ml generic Testosterone propionate (200 mg/ml)
Drug Holiday: physicians visit including blood work with HCG, clomiphene, and Nolvadex followed by a 10-week drug free period. During this time he continues to train and focuses on increasing his "natural" level of strength. By doing this, he has an incredible base from which to build upon when he restarts the drugs. By following this very simple program and most importantly training diligently during the drug free period, this athlete has become stronger season after season. Very few professional athletes, no matter what sport, can make this claim on a consistent basis over their career.
In-Season Cycle
Week(s) 1-8
1 ml Sostanon (250 mg/ml), 4 IU rHGH/d
Week(s) 9
HCG 2,000 IU/d
Week(s) 8-12
ml Sostanon (250mg/ml), 6 IU rHGH/d
Week(s) 13
HCG 2,000 IU/d
Week(s) 14-16
1.5 ml Sostanon (250 mg/ml), 8 IU rHGH/d

The Steroid Interviews Drug Guide Part II
Aminoglutethimide Taken because the drug possesses the ability to inhibit the conversion of androgens to estrogens via the aromatase enzymatic pathway, also used as an adrenocortical suppressant (believed by bodybuilders to be an anti-catabolic agent).
Clenbuterol A selective beta-2-agonist, used as a lipolytic agent to decrease body fat.
Dromostanolone An injectable anabolic/androgenic steroid used for muscle gain and muscle hardness.
Ephedrine Stimulant drug used to decrease body fat and secondarily used as a pre-workout stimulant/antidepressant.
Formyldienolone Injectable anabolic/androgenic steroid used for its ability to cause local muscle inflammation and hence make small muscle groups appear larger or more pronounced.
Growth hormone Injectable peptide hormone used to decrease body fat and stimulate protein synthesis.
Mesterolone An oral anabolic/androgenic steroid. Drug does not metabolize to estrogen, and has been reported by steroid users to block the estrogen receptor. This claim has not been substantiated by science.
Methandrostenolone Oral anabolic/androgenic steroid.
Methenolone enanthate Injectable anabolic/androgenic steroid.
Nandrolone decanoate Injectable anabolic/androgenic steroid.
Nandrolone phenpropionate Injectable anabolic/androgenic steroid.
Oxandrolone Oral anabolic/androgenic steroid.
Testosterone Injectable anabolic/androgenic steroid.
Tiratricol Thyroid drug used for decreasing bodyfat.
Testolactone Oral drug used to prevent the estrogen related side-effects of high dose androgen administration.
Tolbutamide Oral sulfonylurea drug, used to increase insulin release from the pancreas and increase the sensitivity of peripheral tissues to insulin.
Trenbolone hexahydrobenzylcarbonate Injectable anabolic/androgenic steroid.
Stanozolol Injectable anabolic androgenic steroid.

3) Player Description
This individual played college ball at a major Division I school. He began using steroids as a junior in high school when it became apparent he had the chance to get a scholarship from a big school. In his senior season he kicked ass and was heavily recruited. While in college, he continued using drugs. The college program where he played was not what he called a drugged program (the coaches did not sanction drug use), but, there were many players using and the strength coach would assist the football players in designing drug cycles when they requested help.
The strength coach would also allow players to use his university account to make long distance phone calls for drugs, even though he did not directly procure steroids for his athletes. Interestingly, our interviewee said the best advice he received in college was from his collegiate offensive line coach.
When it became known to the coaching staff that our athlete was using drugs, the line coach took him aside and said, "Steroids do not make a great athlete, it takes more than steroids to make a football player." It was advice that stuck with him throughout his career, and while he continued to use, his application of performance enhancing drugs is only a part of the overall program (see cycle below). His drug use compliments his hard work and is not the sole reason for his success in the league. The drugs, along with his dedication to training and work ethic are what have made him a force in the NFL.
Our interviewee was a late round draft pick in the 90s (specific year and order of selection will not be provided). Despite not having a great showing in the draft, he has far outperformed what was predicted of him, which he attributes to hard work more so than drugs.
For around a decade, hes had a great career fighting each Sunday in the muddy, blood-soaked trenches of the NFL. As a lineman, hes got to be strong, quick, and mobile, especially in the offensive scheme run by his present team. His physique exemplifies athleticism. He is also known as a ferocious hitter and is a man who commands respect from other athletes and management around the league. Weighing around 295 pounds (+/- 20 lbs.), he benches close to 600 pounds and runs the 40 in under 4.8 seconds.
Stop and think for a minute about what youve just read. This is a man who weighs in excess of 300 pounds but can run like the wind and has unbelievable strength. Spending time around any pro athlete is a humbling experience, but this is especially evident when you spend time around a defensive or offensive lineman who has successfully played in the NFL. These men are amazing physical specimens.
The Drug Cycle
The cycle outlined below began in the off-season and follows a yearly plan that takes our lineman through the regular season and post-season if needed. Its design is basic, yet highly effective for developing strength and mass in the spring and summer, then shifts focus to maintenance and injury prevention during the fall season.
Orals and short acting injectables are used when drug testing is not a factor. For the in season cycle he relies solely upon Testosterone and rHGH. Side effects experienced from his drug use are as follows: HDL/LDL cholesterol ratio shift, temporary abnormal liver function values (only seen during off-season cycle), and gynecomastia. He has had no major health problems to date as a result of his steroid use. As with all of the athletes interviewed for the book, only time will tell if their current drug use impacts their health status later in life.
Drugs are procured from several sources including two doctors (one in Texas and one in California), from Europe, and from a family member who travels frequently to Mexico. He said he has no problem getting rHGH in large quantities from physicians in the United States. For the most part all his drugs are procured domestically from physicians who treat athletes, members of the entertainment community, and other wealthy individuals.
From his training log, here is his yearly cycle as it was provided
Off-Season Cycle
Week / Drug(s)
1 4ml generic injectable stanozolol (50 mg/ml), 2ml Sostanon (250 mg/ml)
2 Repeat
3 Repeat
4 4ml European injectable Primobolan (100mg/ml), 4 ml generic Testosterone cypionate (200mg/ml), 25mg/day American Anadrol
5 Repeat
6 Repeat
7 3ml generic Testosterone propionate (200 mg/ml)
8 2ml generic Testosterone propionate (200 mg/ml)
Drug Holiday: physicians visit including blood work with HCG, clomiphene, and Nolvadex followed by a 10-week drug free period. During this time he continues to train and focuses on increasing his "natural" level of strength. By doing this, he has an incredible base from which to build upon when he restarts the drugs. By following this very simple program and most importantly training diligently during the drug free period, this athlete has become stronger season after season. Very few professional athletes, no matter what sport, can make this claim on a consistent basis over their career.
