Title: Please get regular blood work if you're juicing!
Post by: Boost on January 23, 2012, 07:10:50 AM
Don't overlook this. You may feel invincible but High blood pressure is the invisible killer.

A gym friend recently suffered a stroke resulting from high blood pressure and a myriad of other undiagnosed liver/kidney/circulatory issues. He hadn't visited a doctor in years, looked and felt great and used moderate doses of anabolics on a long term basis. He suffered a Left-Hemisphere Stroke, affecting his speech and language abilities.

Don't be afraid of your doctor. They won't judge you, but they will help you.
 
Many guys are in denial. As long as they look great on the outside, surely all is well on the inside.

Wow that's really terrible. How old was he? How high was high blood pressure? Any ideas of what kind of doses he was using?

My best friend for over 40 years died this past year at 53 years old............knew him since grammar school.

Did a contest with me,and a week and a half later was dead from an enlarged heart.

Stayed on all the time but not huge dosages........never smoked,drank,or did rec drugs in his entire life.

Trained and played sports all his life also.

27 years old, been on for 6 years, rarely taking more than 6 weeks off. BP 160/100.

1200mgs per week total (If he was telling me the truth)

Very high liver enzymes, terrible blood lipid (cholesterol) profile

he's slurring his words at the moment. Really tragic and completely preventable.

Was his resting blood pressure 160/100? Didn't he feel like shit all the time? Was he using a lot of orals? Any gh? These questions are pretty important.

That's why I avoid things like tren or anything that really spikes my blood pressure to high. I think running tren and anandrol for long periods of time would be really harsh and hard on your heart.

A home BP monitor costs about $40 and you can buy one at Walmart, getting your bloodwork done is not near important as taking care of your BP.
  
 For those of us that don`t take AAS its just as important to monitor, my BP has gone haywire while on a strict low carb diet before. Its nothing to fuck around with.

So you really think abuse of aas over a long time 10-20 years will have no ill effects at all on your heart  ::) Give me a fucken break. It lowers HDL levles and raises LDL levels. It increases blood pressure stiffening areteries. Raises rbc and hematocrit levels.

Then you throw high doses of tren in there and 10-20 i.u of gh I'm suprised you don't see more guys having strokes on these boards.

That's true as well, but it's still generally good practice to stay on top of that. It's easy to fall victim to a predisposed condition.

This is one of the reasons why I don't do ridiculous bulking. AAS aren't going to make you the pinnacle of cardiovascular health so it's good to not go nuts. You can get the same results safely and without becoming a fatass juice pig. Look better and stay healthier.

Testimony to the fact that human body can go through many things in my opinion. Some people interpret that as a proof of the fact that steroids aren't dangerous.

To be honest, in this particular case truth is in the middle. Steroids aren't hysterically dangerous, but they aren't safe either. They fall into same cathegory as alcohol, tabacco and so on. Occasional use is for most people OK, extended use or abuse creates great risk.

It's risk vs reward. I could see people taking that risk if the reward is there , like a career as a professional bodybuilder or professional athlete but is the risk worth it just to be big for the sake of it?

It's all a matter of playing the odds , it's like smoking some people smoke 2 packs a day for 50 years and they're fine others are dead by 45 with cancer , it's one of those things you don't know until you do it.

It really isn't rocket sience these days to look after yourself from the inside as well.

I don't care for the once who are juicing since you all know how I feel about these mental giants:
However if you are not the list below is the bare minimum you should be doing if you are over 30 years of age:

1) Bloodwork - Not expensive
2) Have a doctor check your prostata
3) Have a female doctor check your balls
4) Have one of these heart messurments done (not sure what its called - they put all kinda cables on you and check your heart for a while, don't trust the ol' doctor listens to your heart for a second and says - yep you're doing fine Jim!!

If your smoking (even ciggar) have your lungs checked and X-rayed.

Sad news. Many weight trainers suffer from Cardiomyopathy, thickening of the septum of the heart, secondary to increased B.P. The muscular layer of the septum enlarges and blocks the blood from exiting the heart. Resulting in a "sudden death". Another possibility is Coronary artery disease, cholesterol build up within the arteries feeding the heart muscle resulting in a heart attack (M.I.) Depending on what part of the heart muscle is destroyed will dictate if you live or not.
This is the most basic explanation without getting to involved, hope this helps.

Sorry to hear about your buddy. Sucks.

Guys, you can get your blood done for about $60-100. That's NOTHING to pay to see how things are looking on the inside. If you need help locating a place to do this, PM me, I'll get you the info.

Boost, I believe the biggest factor in your friends bad health was his "permabulking", which will lend to high cholesterol and BP. We really should be making an effort to be as lean as we can as much of the time as possible.

Get your BP at a few times a day, over a few week period. If your upper arms are large, use the larger cuff setting or you'll get inaccurate readings.

Highest I've tested is 135/85 in many years. Usually 120/75. On GH and tren, it's higher but if I do some cardio and clean up the diet for a few weeks it goes down again.

Regular massages with happy endings help lower BP.

Seriously.  BP is nothing to fuck with. Once it gets high and you are in your 30's weather lean, or bulker or whatever, it never goes away.  You will spend the rest of your life fighting to keep it down. Eating veggies, taking supplements and pharma shit.

Doesn't matter if you are juicing or not.

-My best friend in high school dropped dead after a game of basketball at 18 years old. Zero family history or heart issues.

-My uncle had 3 strokes by the time he was 44. Never drank, smoked or did AAS.  His BP was never over 140/70 ever.

-My great grandfather smoked 3 packs a day, drank a jug of whiskey almost every night and ate nothing but fried food and lived to be 96.

My point is, AAS or not, get your heart checked at least once a year. It's cheap.

Where are you going to find a long term study on bodybuilders using androgens reference the heart?  There are very few because this is a sub culture in sport of guys taking drugs to look good.

Steroid do increase your blood pressure. Can you imagine having high blood pressure straining to get those last reps in a leg press or a dead lift?  The spike in blood pressure is incredible.

Most guys that are so rabid to defend steroids are guys in denial using rationalization   over their own use. It's like a heroin addict or a smoker saying they used for 10 years and they are fine. It's still a risk to health.

When you are in your 20's or 30's your health is an after thought.  Being 45 or 55 seems a life time away.  Train without drugs. You won't be able to enter a contest but you will look good and have the health benefits from working out instead of the health risks of drug bodybuilding.

I have been sleeping normally for days. I'm not saying roids cured my or anything similar, just that they didn't affect me bad at all. On top of that my sex life is the closest its ever been to "normal" and ass has actually allowed me to eat less without fear of loosing muscle and that has improved my overall health.

It would be cool if we could get a thread on ways to keep safe if you plan on using long term. Different helpful supplements and ways to keep the heart healthy. That's the one thing I'm always worried about is my heart.

lots of berries, vegetables, sweet potatoes, and  fish.  go easy on the red meat

Its all in the genes. And genes are a lottery. I've had severe anxiety since i was a kid, along with insomnia, ADD...etc since i've been on gear i've been able to reduce my anxiety and stopped taking benzos for the first time in 9 years. I have been sleeping normally for days. I'm not saying roids cured my or anything similar, just that they didn't affect me bad at all. On top of that my sex life is the closest its ever been to "normal" and ass has actually allowed me to eat less without fear of loosing muscle and that has improved my overall health.

I agree whole heartedly with this

Don't overlook this. You may feel invincible but High blood pressure is the invisible killer.

A gym friend recently suffered a stroke resulting from high blood pressure and a myriad of other undiagnosed liver/kidney/circulatory issues. He hadn't visited a doctor in years, looked and felt great and used moderate doses of anabolics on a long term basis. He suffered a Left-Hemisphere Stroke, affecting his speech and language abilities.

Don't be afraid of your doctor. They won't judge you, but they will help you.
 
Many guys are in denial. As long as they look great on the outside, surely all is well on the inside.

I ran a gym for a high level competitive bodybuilder. Do not know his exact doses but was in the grams.

I had a  HRT Doctor who also supervised steroid cycles for bodybuilders and athletes.  He said, "think of it as a glass of water,...once you have filled it if you keep pouring more in it just spills over the side...If you take more than the optimum dose it just spills over the sides and gives you sides with little benefit."

Things went great until one day he took on a new patient,...a uniformed Houston cop...He didn't take his prescriptions to the particular pharmacy that the doc told him to,...He went to the insurance company pharmacy,...The druggist came around the counter and asked point blank, "Are these for Bodybuilding purposes?"...Like the imbecile that he was he nodded and said, "yeah!"

The druggist brought the Texas Medical Board down on his head and he lost his license...So there are almost no more knowledgeable sports doctors that can supervise steroid cycles,...and you know that the morons that do this underground have only one motto, "up the dose."

Boost, I believe the biggest factor in your friends bad health was his "permabulking", which will lend to high cholesterol and BP. We really should be making an effort to be as lean as we can as much of the time as possible.

mode isn't equal to average unless you assume it's normal distribution, or something like that. by average we usually mean expected value which is irrelevant in this case...

what is relevant is propability of heart attack before given age, P(X<k)... And it's still not relevant unless you prove that this value is strongly affected by the use of steroids.

Regarding BT, I'm completely n agreement, tho' I know a few fellas who have been "on" for the past 20-25years (most of the time - just aas, lowe'ish/moderate doses, but constant, with very short breaks, rotating for bulking/cutting, GH has been introducent just for the past 2-3years..) and hasn't had a single BT in that time lol.. crazy fucks.

Doesn't it enlarge because of chronic hypertension? (if so - BP meds would cause it to "athropy" if administered long enough). Oh, and I remember some study, the result was that - administration of viagra for some time caused the enlargement of mice heart to be reversed as a "side effect".. Just a flashback (I'm pretty sure it's not a "permanent" condition and something may be done, as it's a muscle after all..).

I read about the viagra too but I don't really see taking viagra long term as an option to keep the heart from thickening. Weight lifting in itself will cause thickening of the left ventricular because of the pressure/stress during heavy lifting. It would seem logical that AAS and HGH would increase this thickening. As we know no real long term studies have been done but I see this discussed all over the internet but of course there are no studies to conclude anything. Add to this all the stories about autopsied powerlifters/bodybuilders/strong men with enlarged hearts and a myth/truth (?) is created.

Is that part of the reason Viagra falls in the arsenal of professional bodybuilders anabolic regimens? For the heart benefit? As well as the increased blood flow to the muscles?

There was a discussion here on the forums last week - how some pro's use it during competition for increased muscle pumps, as well as for training.

correct me if i am wrong dr...
but isn't it true that , higher bodyweight, big muscles, heavy weight training ... all these things by themself cause a bit higher bp???
i mean 150/80 to me is not that high for a big dude that weighs 250 plus...
i think people are a bit to freaked on this subject...
also a high dyastolic is worse then the systolic on the higher side... correct?
steroids cause high bp , because of the water that you retain.... get that under control and there should be no problem as to bp....
aside from the thicker blood you get from steroids.... that can be solved by taking aspirine...
a good friend of mine suffered a hartattack.....
docter asked only 2 things.....
does it run in your familiy and he asked if he smoked.... steroids were mentioned only when he was recovered....
and the doc said they are not the biggest problem at all... sure there are risks... but genetics are factor no1...
and smoking.... smoking is way , way worse than anything.... worse then steroids, worse then alcohol...
sometimes when i go out i have people telling me i will die young because of steroids.. they are standing there being 30kg overweight and drinking a beer and smoking a sigarette.... i just shake my head and say..... sure.... ::) ::) ::) ::)

...

The heart thickens with weight training with or without AAS usage. And returns to normal upon 'cessation of activity after deconditioning the body from exercise for 3 months'. Unless underlying heart conditions are present, enlargement of the left ventricle, increased chamber size, and increased heart muscle mass is not dangerous in itself.

exactly!!!
closing of arteries and vessels is not CAUSED by cholesterol at all.....
it is caused by inflamation of the artery or vessel wall....
eating a good amount of healthy fats reduces inflamation reactions in your body....
having a high total cholesterol does not mean you are unhealthy!!!!!!!
lowering your cholesterol with meds can actually be very dangerous as your body needs it!
it's all about the hdl/ldl..... how that is divided.
latest research shows fats are not to blame at all..... it's exessive carbs... simpel carbs and high sugar levels in blood...
high glucose = high insuline... insuline kills.....

exactly!!!
closing of arteries and vessels is not CAUSED by cholesterol at all.....
it is caused by inflamation of the artery or vessel wall....
eating a good amount of healthy fats reduces inflamation reactions in your body....
having a high total cholesterol does not mean you are unhealthy!!!!!!!
lowering your cholesterol with meds can actually be very dangerous as your body needs it!
it's all about the hdl/ldl..... how that is divided.
latest research shows fats are not to blame at all..... it's exessive carbs... simpel carbs and high sugar levels in blood...
high glucose = high insuline... insuline kills.....

So you really think abuse of aas over a long time 10-20 years will have no ill effects at all on your heart  ::) Give me a fucken break. It lowers HDL levles and raises LDL levels. It increases blood pressure stiffening areteries. Raises rbc and hematocrit levels.

Then you throw high doses of tren in there and 10-20 i.u of gh I'm suprised you don't see more guys having strokes on these boards.

Very good post, I have done quite a bit of bloodwork over the years on how much AAS I can actually take before it  changes in a negative manner,I also kept records when i was competing using higher dosages. My self studies had me conduting bloodwork regularly firstly after being off for years and then when on hrt doses and then on higher. My own personal experaince and results are below, very limited

I can take up to 200mg of test or Primobolan every 10 to 14 days without lowering my HDL, once I go over this amount my HDL lowers and my LDL starts to climb, there is also no increase to my hemocrit or very little at 200mg a fortnight. My HDL was mostly effected by taking orals  particulrly  where i used anadrol . I find that both Deca and Equipoise both build up the hemocrit steadily but less so than orals. I have been higher and my HDL got really low on pre contest cycles.

your welcome to disagree bro.... ;D
but i can surf a little on google and come up with research that backs up my claims...
it´s new research... and it makes sense...
and i read your links a little ... full of errors... sorry...
high insulin... = western world diseases...
why is it that in some desert populations where they eat like we used to... ie: fish, lean meat, a little carbs... fruits and berry's especially... and fats from the meat , and nuts... why is it these people have virtually NO heart disease except for genetic problems??? why almost no cancer? no diabetics type 2.. WHY?????
low insuline levels....
why do bodybuilders look like crap nowadays? insulin! why did tom princess and flex wheeler lose kidney's???? diuretics?? yes but only because combination with insulin!!! lol i know guys that ABUSED diuretics.. they are fine, why?? no insulin.....
and btw i said simpel carbs... processed foods..... read better...
carbs are not carbs.. simpel carbs have much more impact on bloodglucose as complex carbs...
and about the cholesterol.. go and google.... FACTS! i saw a docter here on tv talking about it just last week..... it's inflamation in the body... inflamation of the artery or vessel walls.... that is where cholesterol gets stuck in... the little lesions....lot's of people wit low cholesterol that get hartattacks...and people with high cholesterol that live to 90....
diet high in (healthy) fats actually prevents inflamation reactions in the body...and yes you NEED sat fat as well!!!!!
insulin should be low!!!!!!! period! not none existant...lol...  but low and stable....

I would appreciate if you will do it
i agree about the fact that insulin is indeed 'killer' and the articles aren't disagree with this either.

It's hard to comment on most of what you wrote because there is too many 'ifs', like the desert populations you mentioned, in their situation there can be much more factors rather than just low insulin for them being healthy (also take a note and read about insulin index)

As for Tom Prince and flex wheeler and their kidney problems, well you can't tell it for a fact so who knows....

carb = carb? obviously no, but read the articles and you will get some insight on how different carbs will affect body composition.

I don't tend to get into arguments especially not the kind that related to nutrition, but for the sake of this argument take your time and read my links, if you are going to throw statements than find something to back them up or at least write them in more complete way.

and you are talking about arguments... bro relax..... you disagree fine.... i don't care... lol...
i know what i am saying is true...
and desert populations yes..like the inuits for axample... they were healthy people... ate whale, rendear meat , and some berry's.... now they have been westernised... and lord and behold... more diabetics type 2, more cancer, more heart disease..... WESTERN DISEASES! why??? nowadays there is a macD there.... burgerKing, faster life..... more (simpel carbs)... = higher insulin levels.... = unhealthy.... period...
tom prince , and kennie wheeler... yes it's slin that killed their kidneys together with abuse of diuretics.... i know because i have seen it happen irl... seen what slin does to a bb.... high dose for many years that is...
do not even discuss this with me , because i have REAL LIFE experience!!!
and btw nutrition and bodycomposition? you are on getbig.... should know by now that drugs is what influences bodycomposition... lol...
nutrition can only do so much...we were talking about cholesterol and hartdisease.....
still low insulin is where you want to be for health..... trust me....
but feel free to disagree..... no problem....  ;D

Once the endothelial of a blood vessel is damaged, usually by blood flow at a bifurcation point, cholesterol will deposit, the body then sends antibodies to the affected area and this goes on and on until you have a blocked artery.
It is a combination of things, but, in short it is cholesterol that is the issue.
Many years ago people didnt live as long, lifestyle and medical care are vastly different, try to avoid that argument.

Keep LDL low, HDL high, use as little PED's as possible. Get blood work 2 times a year and keep body-weight/fat under 15%.

correct me if i am wrong dr...
but isn't it true that , higher bodyweight, big muscles, heavy weight training ... all these things by themself cause a bit higher bp???   not necessarily
i mean 150/80 to me is not that high for a big dude that weighs 250 plus...  no problem bp
i think people are a bit to freaked on this subject... indeed
also a high dyastolic is worse then the systolic on the higher side... correct?  opinions among dr's differ about that these days
steroids cause high bp , because of the water that you retain.... get that under control and there should be no problem as to bp.... correct
aside from the thicker blood you get from steroids.... that can be solved by taking aspirine...  not entirely
docter asked only 2 things.....
does it run in your familiy and he asked if he smoked.... steroids were mentioned only when he was recovered....
and the doc said they are not the biggest problem at all... sure there are risks... but genetics are factor no1...
and smoking.... smoking is way , way worse than anything.... worse then steroids, worse then alcohol...
sometimes when i go out i have people telling me i will die young because of steroids.. they are standing there being 30kg overweight and drinking a beer and smoking a sigarette.... i just shake my head and say..... sure.... ::) ::) ::) ::)    I think you got the idea, my man

Both grandparents had heart issues in my family.  From what I recall, I had read Niacin helps with the arteries.  

http://www.webmd.com/vitamins-supplements/ingredientmono-924-NIACIN+AND+NIACINAMIDE+VITAMIN+B3.aspx?activeIngredientId=924&activeIngredientName=NIACIN+AND+NIACINAMIDE+VITAMIN+B3 (http://www.webmd.com/vitamins-supplements/ingredientmono-924-NIACIN+AND+NIACINAMIDE+VITAMIN+B3.aspx?activeIngredientId=924&activeIngredientName=NIACIN+AND+NIACINAMIDE+VITAMIN+B3)

Also I have to agree with Optimus.  The body uses cholesterol and fats to create hormones so you need it.  But of course when you turn that off via AAS you will have extra fat floating around in the blood and hemocrit will increase (thickness of blood viscosity) as a result.  This can be a bad combination based on your level of inflammation / restriction or even shape and size due to genetics.  In fact, I know a guy at work who lives on lettuce leaves, twigs and berries...plus he uses cholesterol meds.  Despite all that effort he still had several bypass surgery and heart stints.  Granted that is an extreme case.

But asprin works to thin the blood as Optimus pointed out.  I think giving blood may help too.  But not too sure on that one.   ???

To anyone who is somewhat knowledgeable about health, would dipping regularly be just as bad as smoking? I keep reading that it is very bad for one to smoke and have high BP, since both dip and smoking constrict blood vessels, are both equally harmful as far as heart disease and BP?

No problem!  From what I recall my grandfather smoked and then switched to chew.  But I don't think it made a difference for the better in his case.  It was probably like switching from crack to strait old cocaine.  (Both being bad one being a little worse)  Safest way is avoid that sort of stuff altogether.  But maybe someone who knows more about dip can answer.   ;)

Lots of Tren
Lots of EQ

Deca
Anadrol
Superdrol
Primo
Winstrol
Various test ethers mainly sustanon and ethanate

Also peptides and hgh but don't think those are the cause.

I have been on 3 years straight only taken off a few weeks a year. The last year lots of Tren an EQ. For me I'm predisposed to hypertension. Just watch the blood pressure and check your liver enzymes. It pains me to come off but I would rather be alive for my girl and unborn child. Had a good run, wanted to be national level but its ok, have my career and I will probably shrink to twinkle size. Question GH15 would the hgh help my liver in any way.

Understood, but why take PED's to such an extent that you get sides????? Especially when many do not perform in a competitive manner. It is sad to see so many taking AAS to look bigger and stronger when in the gym, why? Even if one is fortunate or unfortunate, depending on you perspective, to get to the national level does the risk out-weigh the reward?????

I'm gunna compete. So I'm not gunna be an average gym rat who gets big and ripped for hoes. Although thats a nice perk that comes with it. If you're a doc I know you're probably very knowledgeable but a friend of mine that is 10 years deep into med school said they covered steroids in those 10 years a total of 10 minutes. So docs are among the least educated about it.

And another thing, no offense, just stating facts, the guys from the 70's that weren't narcs, for the most part are all still alive today. And they didn't even have GH to keep em young. So in all fairness I don't think steroids are healthy, but they aren't necessarily unhealthy either providing you don't stay on grams for years at a time without cruising.

Better to enjoy training as a hobby, take a little gear if you want but get regular bloodwork done and live a long healthy life,competitive bodybuilding requires drug abuse and also requires a lot of effort for no reward other than personal satisfaction, put the effort into something else, getting a better education, having a family,get a better job etc. its more rewarding in the long run, im still trainging after 24 years, watched a lot of guys get burned out in that time who dont train anymore and dont have anything in life to show for their efforts except for a few trophies, balance is teh key in my opinion.This opinion comes from someone who purseud bodybuilding when they were younger,and I accomplished what i wanted to, im not a bitter old has been or never was, just never saw the sense in doing more than what i felt comfortable with to try and win small amounts of prize money, Pro bodybuilding is a flawed buiness plan for the majority of people who are capable of achieving more than flipping burgers in life.

The way I see it, the best reason for anyone to work out and take PED's is to be able to fuck more sluts. Can't think of any better reason.

Let's think of other motivations for a second here

to compete for a plastic trophy = not a better reason
to feel good about yourself = not a better reason
to be healthier = well we all know it makes you less healthy so this obviously won't work out favorably
to boost confidence = well this is a great reason but it usually happens regardless of what your goal is
to be able to intimate people and be scared of you = ummm ok I guess but still not a better reason
to get more attention from others = good reason, but not as good
to impress your girlfriend = if she was with you in the first place, not a better reason

to be able to intimate people and be scared of you = ummm ok I guess but still not a better reason
to get more attention from others = good reason, but not as good
to impress your girlfriend = if she was with you in the first place, not a better reason

I have high systolic (120 first thing in the morning, usually around 140 during the day, never higher than 150), low diastolic (usually around 70, never higher than 80). i have normal resting pulse (56/minute). no major cardiovascular diseases to note in my family. i don't know anyone in my family from my grandparents except from my grandfather's brother who didn't live to their 80s. my grandfather smoked, was in stutthof concentration camp, died at 87. grandmather's sister was 100 when she died.

should i be worried about my elevated systolic bp? i have to be honest that i had issues month ago. i was really bloated, going overboard with coffeine. i was all red during each set and had red marks on my chest after heavy squats prolly from little blood vessels, dunno how to explain in english, bursting out? that's when i got worried and bought manual bp set and started monitoring it. at the same time i bumped antiestrogens, changed to propionate and started feeling much better.

i will consult doctor, but before that happens, can you please tell me what you think about it dutchguy?

yes but high cholesterol is not the cause.... lot's of people with high cholesterol that live to be 90....
and people live longer yes....
also more type 2 diabetics, more cancer, more heart disease.. just because science keeps us living longer does not mean what i am saying is not true...
cholesterol gets a bad rep..... taking meds that will get your cholesterol way down can be dangerous...

I wouldn't worry to much about those numbers. I know what you mean about feeling like your going to burst. That's from the bloate. Stay lean and keep the bloat down that will really help. Masteron is great for that.

I'm gunna compete. So I'm not gunna be an average gym rat who gets big and ripped for hoes. Although thats a nice perk that comes with it. If you're a doc I know you're probably very knowledgeable but a friend of mine that is 10 years deep into med school said they covered steroids in those 10 years a total of 10 minutes. So docs are among the least educated about it.

And another thing, no offense, just stating facts, the guys from the 70's that weren't narcs, for the most part are all still alive today. And they didn't even have GH to keep em young. So in all fairness I don't think steroids are healthy, but they aren't necessarily unhealthy either providing you don't stay on grams for years at a time without cruising.
The guys from the 60's - 80's do not look like the current competitors at all, do they? What is the difference? Food, training or drugs??

Everything in moderation, unfortunately moderation isn't used anymore to get to the Nationals, to bad.
I remember Mike Ashley, J.J. Marsh, Matt Mendenhall, TomTewelliger, Mike Quinn, Franco Santoriello, there are so many many guys that looked great, now, they look distorted and ill.
Compare Lee Haney/ Samir Banout to Ron Coleman. Who actually had a more pleasing body to look at? I understand Coleman is more massive that's obvious but balanced, symmetrical, not gut etc... It is a matter of opinion too, but really think about it, the sport would be so much better without the drug abuse, what a shame.
Regarding steroid education; that's not the point, my point is learning about the body and your organs. So who can you ask about the drug applications then? Some "guru" who can sell you enough to cover their expense for their own supply, think about it. Bottom line be careful is all.
Good luck in your competition, I mean no disrespect but as far as women, most prefer a large wallet over a large bicep  ;)

Guys, please understand that aspirin therapy will do little to nothing to resolve the "thickened" blood that aas can cause. Aspirin works to keep the blood "thin" as you wou ld say by working on inhibiting platelet aggregation. This is important to consider for and individual at  risk for heart attack or stroke or HTN. By helping to minimize clot formation you reduce the risk of serious complications of those at risk for cardiovascular disease. Now aas thicken your blood by means of erythropoesis which is the creation of new red blood cells. Too many red blood cells in your blood places you at risk for HTN and clot formations which may lead to serious cardiovascular events such as MI or stroke. Your hematocrit(HCT) and hemoglobin (HGB) levels can help u indicate if your blood is to thickened. The best way to deal with aas thickened blood is phlebotomy or blood donations.

exactly!!!
closing of arteries and vessels is not CAUSED by cholesterol at all.....
it is caused by inflamation of the artery or vessel wall....
eating a good amount of healthy fats reduces inflamation reactions in your body....
having a high total cholesterol does not mean you are unhealthy!!!!!!!
lowering your cholesterol with meds can actually be very dangerous as your body needs it!
it's all about the hdl/ldl..... how that is divided.
latest research shows fats are not to blame at all..... it's exessive carbs... simpel carbs and high sugar levels in blood...
high glucose = high insuline... insuline kills.....
think about it.... before the industrial revolution... before processed foods.. before it all... a lot less heart diseases... why????????
lower insuline levels.... less simpel carbs in the food.... higher protein and fat intake....






bullshit. chinese used to eat rice allllllllll the damn time and lived extremely old. inuit women on a whale only diet? please, they all look like shit, facially and physically, lol.

Yep I agree and worse yet most of those chemicals either have not been tested.  OR some that are tested have been proven to be carcinogenic and yet we still use them.  I just wrote something about that in the steroid board when we were talking about UGL's.  Trying to escape the chemicals toxicity is damn near impossible too.  It is no wonder my great grandparents who were not exposed to such chemicals and radiation all lived to almost 100 and had no cholesterol, BP, diabetes, etc and they all drank whole milk and ate real food!

And it's not about simple carbs,you can eat bananas all day long,they won't hurt you,they are simple carbs too,but,they are not artificial carbs.It's something to drink soda's,all kinds of chocolate's,cream's and processed carbs.That's the problem nowdays.

Plus the hormonas and chemicals in the meat and veggies.Try to grow your own chicken,and then compare that with the chicken breasts you buy from the store.HUGE difference.

I tell you man,fruit is healthy,we are not speaking about getting fat or not,we are speaking about health.

Go eat let's say 2000 cals a day of cake a period,and 2000 cals from bananas other exact same period.You will get considerably fatter and damage your health on cake's rather than bananas :)

Inflammation is the cause of all disease.
Carbs, specifically processed carbs, cause inflammation.
The less carbs you eat the healthier you will be.
Read the book 'Blue Zone' or just google it.
They live longer than anyone, and one of the keys is a
plant based diet......no processed carbs.

they eat rice in small portions....as all of their food... small portions... lot of veggies also...

also depends where they lived, nothern china they did not eat a lot of rice at all.. more noodles...
also chinese food is loaded with fats and protein....pork, beef, fish.
hardly a high carb diet.
that they are skinny has more to do with their genes....
processed foods, agreed. allready told you that.

it does a lot more then shuttle nutrients , has effect on a lot of organs.... and processes in the body...

insulin makes you more hungry....
ever shot 15 iu of huma? you can eat a horse after that.... ;D ;D

This part is very true.  My wife is from Taiwan and almost everyone on that side of the family can eat LOTS of food and don't seem to gain an ounce.  My brother in law can eat in-and-out burger, fried stuff, pizza, soda, buffet, etc and has 29" waist.  If I ate half of that I'd be a tube of goo!

And yes traditional Asian food is usually smaller portions.  I wonder if the introduction of fast food chains in Asia will ruin their health like in the USA.   ???  I'm guessing over time it will effect them in a bad way too.  But they also use their own local ingredients that often don't have as much chemicals, processing, and preservatives.  Like I think in Taiwan you can get sweet potato fries.  Wish we could get that here!

lesaucer is correct, insulin is not bad at all. Plus, any food raises insulin, protein raises it just as much as carbs.
High insulin is not a problem for anything, like lesaucer just said, it just shuffles nutrients to cells. The problems arise in some people developing diabetes and desensitizing their insulin receptors from the circulating insulin in the blood. And to let you know, high insulin secretion does not cause this, it is an obesity problem and a genetic predisposition. If you're a healthy person with a normal bodyweight, you need not to worry about it.  
And not only chinese consume a lot of rice, but many other cultures in the world have carbs such as potatoes, wheat, etc. as their main staple in their diets and suffer no problems at all.
Please try to educate yourself before posting such things, because you may confuse a lot of people.

hormones will shorten life if taken in higher dosages than hrt

that s just fact

like pimping an engine

if done right

 - it will be stronger faster but life length and reliability will be reduced

if done wrong

 - it won t run properly anymore and go to failure very fast with no benefits at all

the decision is "average and long life" or "bigger stronger faster and SHORTER life on hormons with big chance to fuck it up right from the beginning and get nowhere at al"

i won t say don t take hormones but you need to have a specific goal in life to fit to the hormone abuser lifestyle

maybe being a nba superstar is worth to die at 60 instead of 92yrs old

dying 45 insted of 92 to be a big down hill type of bodybuilder is just  ::)

and be sure if you are one of the "life your muscle is everything dream" guys, one day the dream will be over and you will wish that you didn t do what youve done and get just a couple more days on this planet

 - it won t run properly anymore and go to failure very fast with no benefits at all

the decision is "average and long life" or "bigger stronger faster and SHORTER life on hormons with big chance to fuck it up right from the beginning and get nowhere at al"

i won t say don t take hormones but you need to have a specific goal in life to fit to the hormone abuser lifestyle

maybe being a nba superstar is worth to die at 60 instead of 92yrs old

dying 45 insted of 92 to be a big down hill type of bodybuilder is just  ::)

and be sure if you are one of the "life your muscle is everything dream" guys, one day the dream will be over and you will wish that you didn t do what youve done and get just a couple more days on this planet

as soon you go off muscles fade ut heallth probs  very well may stay forever
:D

Some don't even make it that far. Just look at last year:

Luke Wood - 35
Art Atwood - 37
Zyzz - 22 or 23

And basically none of these guys has even achieved anything mentionable in that "sport".
