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?
Q: I just finished a testosterone cypionate cycle of 600mg/week for 12 weeks. How long will it take until the extra testosterone is out of my system and I return to “normal”? In other words, how long before I can pass an anti-doping test after finishing this steroid cycle? A: Figuring roughly a week for […]
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? That wouldn’t do much at all to burn fat, simply because (as I understand it) there is no good evidence that our bodies burn fat for […]
How Does Frontloading Improve a Steroid Cycle?
Q: I’m three weeks into my cycle and am still not seeing the gains I expected. How could have frontloading improved my anabolic steroid cycle? Can you explain that, and what the dosing and duration of the front loading would be? A: It’s not unusual, when not frontloading (taking a calculated, especially high dose on […]

For example, Bill Phillips rated it as the best anabolic steroid ever in his Anabolic Reference Guide.

Which Steroids Are Least Likely to Cause Acne?
Q: “What steroid stack or combination is best to minimize acne? Trenbolone/dianabol? Deca/dianabol? Is Anadrol or Dianabol least likely to cause acne? Finally, why don’t pro bodybuilders have acne problems?” A: I’m pretty strongly convinced that estrogen or SERMs are a bigger culprit for acne than is androgen level. Of course, the double whammy of […]
What is “Free Testosterone”?
Q: What is free testosterone and does Proviron increase free test levels? A: Well, let’s leave out the Proviron part as Proviron does not increase free testosterone. The “free concentration” of a drug is that amount which is dissolved in a given volume of the aqueous (water) part of the blood. Not complexed with other […]
Are SARMs Effective for Post Cycle Therapy?
Q: Are SARMS effective for post cycle therapy (PCT)? I’ve read about studies showing that SARMs are only suppressive at dosages greater than 50mg per day. So wouldn’t SARMS be ideal for PCT since they didn’t interfere with testosterone production? A: It needs to be kept in mind that there are situations where low dose […]
Are Any Esoteric Steroid Esters Better Than Traditional Options?
Q: “I’ve seen many unusual steroid esters being offered by sellers of raw powder. Is there a reason why I’d want to use any of them instead of the old standbys?” A) For the most part no, as the choice of ester has no effect on the action of the steroid but only on the […]
