Title: Reality regarding steroids
Post by: DHEA-100 on September 08, 2015, 07:03:54 PM
Due to hysteria the line of reality & fantasy re: steroid use has been blurred so bad its invisible.  People see pro bb'ers & think steroids.  People now are convinced using steroids is the drug equivalent of beer or MJ.  This is sooo wrong its beyond stupidity.  Long-term tampering w/ a very delicate balance of chemicals such as hormones is IMO far worse than getting high or drunk.  

We as grown men need to realize kids come on here & are influenced by what vets like us post.  Steroid use is NOT obligatory w/ bb'ing.   Tens of thousands of kids are right now f'in themselves up for life (Taylor Hooten) thinking they have to use steroidsz to get huge or be cool.  Its a tragedy we can prevent, its up to us...

   While I am sure this won't be new to anyone, The New England Journal of Medicine and JAMA have unequivocally stated that not a single
death can be directly attributable to steroid use.  You can't even take a single overdose of any single steroid.
   Having said that, they are nothing to take without knowledge and respect.

Its medically/pathologically impossible to directly link steroid use & deaths since they replace an endogenously produced chemical.  IOW BS logic.

The reality is that steroids can be good or bad for you, depending on the circumstances.  My dad had a heart attack a while back, and after the surgery, they prescribed steroids, and quite a few doctors have told me that they are beneficial for you, with the proper guidance and in the right circumstances.

So many people are against steroids, yet, time after time out here, the addictions that destroy lives are heroin (which is coming back sadly), hardcore drugs (cocaine) and believe it or not, freaking drunks that drive that can't understand how they can destroy, kills and hurt people until it is too late.

Is your dad using sterods to exist in some bb'ing geriatric delusion?  Of course not!  In sick people drugs often help heal, in healthy people they make sick.  There is no such thing as a "super chemical balance".  Artificial elevation of a man's test. level beyond a healthy range is counter-productive.  PEDs are total BS.

Insofar as I can determine, there is no known drug that will improve the performance, or increase the muscular mass, of a healthy individual. Furthermore, I would like to go record at this point by stating…”I do not believe that such drug will ever be discovered. I think that such a result from any chemical is impossible.”
I am fully aware that some drugs can improve the condition of a weakened individual, in cases of sickness or accident…but I also believe that a state of normal health is possible only in the presence of a very delicate chemical balance that is regulated automatically by the system. If any chemical is added for the purpose of upsetting this balance, the result can only be counterproductive.
In effect, there is no such thing as a “super chemical balance”…if the chemical balance is normal, you are healthy…if not, you are sick…and it matters not whether the state of imbalance is produced by too much or too little of a practical chemical. This has been proven repeatedly in literally thousands of tests conducted with animal subjects, and no slightest evidence exists in support of an opposite result with either animal of human subjects.
Certain hormones will help add muscular mass to a steer, or a gelding…but they will NOT produce the same result with a bull or a stallion. When an animal has been castrated, removing the testicles produces an abnormal situation where normal growth is impossible, giving such an animal the hormone drugs merely tends to restore a normal situation, a situation that would have existed naturally if the animal had not been castrated.
In such cases you are merely removing something and then trying to replace it in another manner; first creating a subnormal condition and then trying to restore normal health.
Yet the widespread bias in favor of such so called “growth drugs” borders on hysteria. Even suggesting that the use of these drugs is anything less than necessary automatically labels you a fool in some circles. And there is certainly no doubt that a lot of people are being fooled on this subject; but you can NOT fool your endocrine system, and when you add an un-required chemical for the purpose of disturbing a normal balance, you are NOT improving the situation.
Pointing to recent strength records as proof of the value of such drugs actually proves nothing. The fact remains that the single strongest human recorded in history established his records long before the drugs were ever used. Paul Anderson established records prior to 1958 that have never been approached and androgenic-anabolic drugs were apparently first used in athletic circles in 1960.
Bob Peoples established a deadlift record thirty years ago, lifting nearly 800 pounds at a bodyweight of approximately 180; today, a very few individuals have reached or passed that level of performance…but most of them weigh nearly twice as much as he did, and some of them weigh more than twice as much.
Men who establish such records are merely statistical standouts, literally genetic freaks; they are NOT the products of drugs, regardless of their opinions on the subject.

Great strength is a result of two factors…(1) individual potential, which cannot be improved…and (2) hard training, which will increase the strength of almost anybody.
But a third factor exists as a prerequisite…NORMAL HEALTH, without which, reaching the limits of potential strength is simply impossible. So you can improve a sick individual in some cases, but you can NOT turn a normal individual into a superman by chemical means. Such a result is impossible, and ridiculous on the face of it.Insofar as I can determine, there is no known drug that will improve the performance, or increase the muscular mass, of a healthy individual.

I wouldn't say it's up to a message board to help kids perceptions.  The media is probably the number one cause for increased steroid use.  If you hear all your top athletes take drugs...makes sense for you to do the same.  It's funny that the media usually perpetuates their own "problems".  They could care less about people's health, much like the government...but the topic gets ratings.
Most people assume drugs are needed to gain a decent amount of muscle and the reality for most people is...yes, they need them.  Most don't have the genetics, drive, or consistency of a period of time to gain a lot of lean mass.  Rather than do what is needed without drugs, it's probably the first thing most turn to.  Look at the sad state of gyms today...a sea of pussies. ;). Cell phone in one hand, chronic chat breaks, light weight, no intensity, heavy drugs...weak all the way.
The Taylor Hooten story really had little to do with steroids.  The kid was on prescription medication.  It's laughable they tried to tie that to steroids...as most bs the media spews.  Steroids used properly in low doses are probably not that dangerous, but the lack of effort/heart generation their promoting is the problem. 
In the end, what does any of it really matter.

A lot of health problems are determined by one's DNA and lifestyle. Hormone abuse can be dangerous and stupid, however, it can be beneficial in the case of TRT where natural hormones are not in healthy ranges and must be replaced with exogenous administration.

Hormones are the way of the future (especially HGH). I am not arguing that everybody should start using AAS in the 3-5 grams per week ranges, with tons of GH, slin and diuretics. Nevertheless, in my experience HGH and small/moderate AAS cycles have changed my life for the better. There are so many examples of hormone enhanced athletes and celebrities who are success in real life.

Even if I had all the money and bitches in the world it won't be worth shit if I look like some fatass estrogen bitch. It's evolution.

Tatlor Hootens suicide was directly because of the severe depression caused by his steroid use.  His physician  scribed him an anti-depressant to help.  If a forum exists on this board that solely deals w/ steroid use then this board' whose influence is significant, is part of the problem.  Old men openly discussing dosages of stroids they use because of some ignorant quack who scribes them is sheer stupidity.  DHEA holds far more therapeutic possibilities than test. or any of it's derivatives because it is a non-parental steroid.  That being exogenous supplementation doesn't have a negative-feedback loop effect on the HPTA as any test. use does, even in hypogonadal men.

Taylor Hooton was the victim of controlling closed minded parents.  Such parents can drive their children to suicide. It is far easier for such parents to look for something to blame rather than look at how their parenting fucked their kid up.  Hope this helps

If it was via a doctor it would be even better.  Either way, better than smoking or drinking.  It also often goes along with a healthy lifestyle of working out and watching diet.  Probably makes a lot of psychotropic meds unnecessary also.

His problem was genetic predisposition to depression.  Where were the parents?  And wasn't this like 10 years ago?  Meanwhile many tens or hundreds of thousands have used without a problem.  You are looking for a problem that isn't there.  And your trolling implying that somehow steroids don't work is laughable.

Complete bunk. The kid was on anti-depressants before he took steroids. It was the fucking psychotropic drugs that tossed him over the edge. His grieving father couldn't bear to know that his approval for the drugs for his son was a factor in his death, needed to have another bogey-man, and the steroids were his target. Another day, he could have easily targeted soft drinks and we'd all need a special license for Coke.

You're simply a fuckin idiot that has no idea what you're talking about.  I work in the medical field and 90% of the physicians I work with are on TRT.  They also use GH daily.  They laugh at the fact alcohol and tobacco are legal, but AAS and GH are not, and it boggles their minds why everybody above 30 isn't on TRT.  I've been on AAS and GH for 5 years straight, on and off, mostly on for 19 years total.  Blood work is perfectly normal, EKG perfectly normal, echocardiogram perfectly normal, kidneys and liver perfectly normal every single month.  Just stop with your bullshit, you have no idea what you're talking about.

You're simply a fuckin idiot that has no idea what you're talking about.  I work in the medical field and 90% of the physicians I work with are on TRT.  They also use GH daily.  They laugh at the fact alcohol and tobacco are legal, but AAS and GH are not, and it boggles their minds why everybody above 30 isn't on TRT.  I've been on AAS and GH for 5 years straight, on and off, mostly on for 19 years total.  Blood work is perfectly normal, EKG perfectly normal, echocardiogram perfectly normal, kidneys and liver perfectly normal every single month.  Just stop with your bullshit, you have no idea what you're talking about.

^ this!

They are legal in the country you live in you fucking fool
it's a fucking retarded law, they are legal to own and buy in person but illegal to sell or buy online. So you get black market goods and you don't really know wtf you are putting into your body. If you could walk into a pharmacy and buy them off the shelf then that is LEGAL
