 I think the first was a non-bodybuilder strongman, but I know Flex did have something funky in his delts in '99. Kovacs also had funky shoulders in the 90s.

 I think the MRI revealed no implants, but synthol could have still been used, I think. Maybe it dissipated after some time? ???

He was one strong mofo though.

His arms were 27 inches. I'd guess that 4/5 inches of that was from the oil.

synthol (or syntherol) first showed up in the early 1990s, but bodybuilders were using site injections long before that.  certain anabolic steroids cause inflammation for a few days, so injecting a cc or two into a small muscle like the bicep or delt may cause an increase in size, but only for a few days. 

with synthol, the increase in size is due to the volume of oil.  with site injections, the increase in size is due to your body's reaction (inflammation) to the irritating substance.

That's true... I heard that Lee Haney did most of his injections in his pecs.

I wonder which old school bodybuilders that preys to god noone will ever know that they were mostly a result of inflammed muscles caused by site injecting. It would´nt surprise me one bit if Arnold knew he could gain about one inch on biceps and or triceps before a show. It´s not that hard to belive some guys who used alot of gear had to switch injection areas, it´s more likely than not even.

Flex does have calf implants.....the surgeon that performed the procedure went thru the heel, thus no visible scars. This is a fact

  A handful of Arnold pics are definitely suspicious in this regard :-\

Flex wheeler used to have calf implants, Shawn ray called him out on them (which he should, they are illegal), and so he took them out.

You're not exactly right, site injections work because the muscle tissue absorbs the steroid like a sponge, it has nothing to do with inflammation. The muscle is swollen because of the volume of oil (most steroids) injected and lasts more then a few days, sometimes up to two weeks.

See Esc.  I think it lasts much shorter timewise.

Both of you are right its the combo of those effects.
Inflamation can be very noticeable with some roids.

the original website seems to have disappeared, but from yahoo's cache (http://66.218.69.11/search/cache?p=equipose%2binflammation&ei=UTF-8&rls=org.mozilla%253Aen-US%253Aofficial&fr=moz2&u=retdomestic.com/Anabolic_Steroids/esiclene.htm&w=equipose%2binflammation&d=SKBoREaqMh2Q&icp=1&.intl=us) of the page:


Esiclene has some very unusual characteristics. It will allow any muscle to increase in size within a very short period of time. Basically esiclene stimulates the tissue at the point of injection causing a slightly painful inflammation and swelling of the muscle tissue itself. Because inflammation is normally painful esiclene ampules usually contain 20mg lidocaine, a mild painkiller. The swelling only lasts for about four to five days making this a popular right-before-competition drug to help size-up the under developed muscle groups. Esiclene is often injected daily to make up for the decrease in swelling. Esiclene only promises temporary gains of around 1-1.5 in on arms and calves when used daily at injections of around 1ml the first day and 2ml (one per muscle) the days following. It is difficult to find on the black market, however, it is very affordable. In Italy a box of six ampules costs approximately $8 and on the black market an ampule may cost between $10 and $12. Esiclene is a water dissolved steroid making it good for getting hard muscles and because it has no real side effects (other than the pain and every once in a while a misshaped muscle) it is a popular drug for both men and women.

so the fact is that synthol lasts longer and has better increase in size for a longer time than escliene.....but both of these r steroids so y every 1 is against synthol alot..i think every bodybuilder takes it in one way or the other...so wats wrong in the fact that using synthol is bad.any thing used in moderation is ok...

there are no anabolic steroids in synthol.  it is just oil and pain killer.   it does not cause the muscle to increase in size.  it does not cause muscle to grow.

tims is right about esiclene, it causes an imflamation. atleast this is what all competitors say when they talk about it.

Nearly 500 posts and you don't know that synthol is just steralized oil?  How can you use it in moderation - it doesn't just dissolve away in a few days.  Can somebody help this guy out with pics?

And I seriously doubt everybody BBer uses it...
