Anabolic Steroids: How Safe and Effective?

[CrasHBURN]

Creatine is safe... whey protein is safe... But be sure wala'y kay problema daan sa kidney...

Even if wala siya nag take ug Creatine and or Whey Protein... workout siya and increase iya protein(beef, chicken, pork, eggs, soy, casein) ma hospital gihapon siya... kay guba-on iya kidney... so before you workout or increase intake of any kind of food.. pa checkup gyud ka...

Creatine is simply an Amino Acid, L-Creatinine. Usually naa sa Red Meats... Beef, pork, chicken... gamay ra sab kaayo... in milligrams ra siguro... usual creatine supplements, around 3 - 10grams na... natural supplement... non steroidal....

Whey Protein is just another protein source... again, similar to casein (milk protein), soy, beef, chicken... BUT, whey is a pre-digested protein... which, its amino acids can be absorbed in just 1-2 hours after intake... compared to other sources, 3-5 hours... whey protein is best taken minutes before / after workout...

see? there's nothing wrong with these supplements...

i've been using whey protein for straight 3 months, not really taken everyday coz i have eggs, beef and chicken breasts for my main pro source... last year, Creatine monohydrate for straight 2 months on... 10g a day during loading (5 days), and 5g a day after...

with Creatine, these are the side effects i had before... water retension, muscle gain, strength gain and better muscle endurance... hehehe....

Creatine is a compund needed to produce ATP(which cells need for energy) from ADP, so its safe!!!
it does not increase muscle mass directly as with anabolics, which makes cells divide faster

it only makes your muscles tire longer, so you can work out more!!!

just dont overdo....

coz anything in excess is Bad!!!

whey protein provides the nutrients to form amino acids, which are used to form muscle mass...

slakker: myth na bai... (something like this) using roids, you are over producing testosterone than placebo... not normal... so as you age, mas sayo mo lower imo natural testosterone production... NOT literally mo gamay ang itlog... but 1 or 2 cycles wont matter siguro... unless ma addict gyud ka..

it's not a myth. dexterdal's post above pointed it out:

testicular atrophy: your balls will shrink
gynaecomastasia: you'll grow breasts

kanang steroids, dili na maka daot og in perfect health ka, pero kung naa ka problema daan, example sa liver ir kidney ayaw na lang kay basi ma subraan trabaho na mu samot nu on ka da-ot.

there are many types of steroids available in the market today. such as medications for various treatments. but as for the author for this post, it has already been a bias to many that steroids are dangerous and has several side effects (especially due to chronic use) but for body building, as stated above, the steroids being taken by athletes are accompanied by hard work too. the steroids they take in is useless if they don't work out as well. BUT as also stated above most steroids are usually incorporated with a doctor's prescription (s1 doctors can prescribe it but in some s2 can only prescribe it) but with constant monitoring to those athletes taking them for long term use.

my advice? take them with caution and monitor for side effects. DONT do/take it alone.

the kind of steroids that i think we're talking about is the one used by athletes and bodybuilder. so, we scratch out the one used for medical purpose. i don't know if they could be abused by bodybuilder or athlete. any of you guys have any idea?

another question is can doctor prescribe steroids for non-medical use? i don't think so.

steroids is bad for your health that's why it is banned in sports. athletes consider it cheating. consequences for using one is graved like suspensions and stripping you of your medals. it is also the same, i think, for competitive bodybuilding.

kung ganahan lang ka modako, steroids will help gain mass but is it worth it? the effect on your organs can be monitored by medical test. monitor by feeling like you feel some pain? hmm. . . basin the damaged is irreversable.

Many have been said about the real effects of steroids. Some say it has great effects in increasing muscle, increasing strength and endurance and etc. Some also say that it has detrimental effects on your health in the long run. Sa ako lang opinion, I don’t think using steroids is worth the gamble. For my part, wa man ko magwork out para mudako ako lawas. I go to the gym for fitness and health. Bonus nalang na if mudako ka. And if d kaau ta sure sa real effect sa steroids, ayaw nalang. Limpyo pa imo konsensya...

in my opinion to get really really big freak of nature muscles steriods is the only way to go...
