Okay.
Let me give you an example of where YOU were scientifically-minded and correct in being so. You posted not to long ago about increasing androgen receptor activity which meant you didn't need to use as much steroids.
Recently I did the same thing in my thread with another compound. That is science...
Taking a look at the last few discussions in my science thread the topics include:
- Body sculpting 101 (i.e. w/o steroids)
- a study "Cardiac Lesions Induced by Testosterone: Protective Effects of Dexrazoxane and Trimetazidine"
- the fact that most amino acid products leave out tryptophan which has been shown scientifically to reduce cravings for carbs (because serotonin is a satiety hormone)
- Alternate Day Fasting - Insulin sensitivity & muscle
- Plasma concentrations of LH & FSH w/ weekly test-e administration over the course of months
- Fascia Stretching & Caprylic Acid
So when I read your post I felt like rolling my eye ...no disrespect at all. Try it now for real... go ahead and roll your eyes... its kind of fun.
I agree with a lot of what is said in this thread. Hobbiests (people who don't compete) make up the majority of people who post or read here and they all seem to think stacks of steroids or GH (because it has the word "growth" in it) will do ALL of the work AND get them to look like you.
But let me ask people like you to post up their genetics. The basics of inducing anabolism available to everybody are fairly simple as are the basics of reducing catabolism.
So posting up your genetics would allow us to see exactly what genetic aspects allow YOU to grow. I'll bet that most genetically superior muscle-mass acquirers have bodies that do a lot more with a lot less.
By-the-way there are a lot of people that come to this board (or at least to the sub-forum) who aren't interested JUST in acquiring muscle. They are interested in health, longevity, healing, body-scultping sanely and they come in different age groups.
There is a big difference beween the older body-builder and the young one.
The young one scientifically is prone to addiction to steroids while the older ones are not.
The older ones NEED to do certain things because protein synthesis is delayed or MGF increase PWO is not as pronounced as younger ones.
Finding something here or there that can help someone achieve there goals from science is a good thing not something to dismiss.
