  • I agree with you that the stigma around them is not a net positive. Adults should be able to use tools available, in a safe way and if they don’t harm others in the process. Legalizing their use would also minimize problems from illegal trade.

    Thanks for the info on the PCT, was not aware. The examples I read were extreme, were the person had been using for years and in high doses so they were effectively dependent on them.


  • Im gonna ask you. What exactly is the problem with that?

    One example of a problem is the fact that the majority of them do not openly talk about it. In fact it’s the opposite, they deny taking PEDs and claim it’s all hard work and that anybody can achieve it.

    A more specific example is Chris Hemsworth who sells training programs that claim to give you his physique. Don’t you see the problem with this?

    I do agree with you that it if people want to use it they should, under medical supervision and with full understanding of the risks and commitment they bring. My limited understanding of using exogenous hormones is that your body will lose the ability to properly make them and one is bound to taking them for life.





  • Reminds me when I practiced athletics and had my first competition. I couldn’t for my life do anything right… Dropped out of the endurance race, had a false start on the sprint and threw the weight in the wrong direction.

    The worst was the high jump. During practice I was doing really well by being able to clear 1.9 meters (6.2 feet) but during the competition I was not even able to clear 1.4 meters (4.6 feet)… performance anxiety is very real!
