For hamstring size, do both a heavy load, lower-rep range and a higher rep range.

1 – Heavy, Low Reps: Your hamstrings are primarily fast-twitch dominant. This may contribute to the massive hamstring development in sprint athletes. In the gym, this means you should incorporate heavy...

GO WITH SHORTER ESTERS FOR LESS SIDE EFFECTS AND SUPPRESSION!
Very interesting study that compares short vs long esters of testosterone and how it affects peak plasma levels, suppression, and aromatization. This study compares test enanthate, test undecanoate, and test bucilate at equal doses...
You might have seen the graphs on treadmills claiming you'll increase fat oxidation you keep your pulse relatively low when doing cardio. While there is evidence that the “fat burning zone” exists where you increase your fat oxidation (oxidation is the scientific term for “burning”), a higher...

People often associate a shredded physique (low body fat) with strength and athleticism. While you may look like ‘you don't even lift’ with your shirt on, being shredded exudes power and physical prowess when you're bare-chested.

There are no clear nutritional or health benefits conferred by eating organic food over non-organic food, and they certainly won’t make you leaner.

But we’re not saying that organic foods are bad or that you shouldn’t buy them. In fact, there may be some benefits to the farming methods used...
LGD-3303(not ligandrol) is a SARM that seems to be very potent at activating the AR in muscle cells at very low doses. The study showed increased muscle mass in doses as little as 0.1mg/kg in rats. Unfortunately, it also seems to activate the AR in the prostate as well, especially at higher...
Is a Whole-Body Split Right for You?

Just ran across this 2014 study showing that a 50/50 combination of citrulline/arginine mix elevated plasma arginine levels and blood nitrate/nitrite levels higher than either compound alone at 2x the dose, in both rats and rabbits. Interestingly, the Citrulline/Arg blend was...
Lost my job again this morning due to downsizing. Damn, it really sucks when a company downsizes, and the first thing they do is eliminate the guys that have all the experience and knowledge just because their salaries are higher. There's a reason for the higher salary for crying out loud...

TESTOSTERONE ESTERS
I thought testosterone is testosterone? Isn’t that what they say on the internet? If you hear it on a steroid forum, isn’t it true? Well, research dating as far back as 1954 says no. In fact, (primate) research as recent as this decade seems to say the...
So I'm making my own ECA stack, just wondering about the dosage... my old ECA stack I used to buy was 25e/200c/75a, from which I understand is the ideal dosages for optimum performance. NOW, with that being said, my aspirin dosage is slightly higher. Anyone ever do it with different doses of the...

30 Sets for Arms: Overkill?
I was watching a video on MD with Victor, Juan Morel and Jonathan De La Rosa training arms, and they must have done five exercises each for biceps and triceps. I want to say the total amount of sets was around 30. That strikes me as overkill. What do...

I read horror stories about tren cycles and expected the absolute worst. It has had some effects on me, like acid reflex kills me and alil anxiety when my test is higher. But no rage no agression, no craziness. I am actually very calm and very happu. Control the estrogen and prolactin and it's...
It goes without saying, abs are made in the kitchen. You can’t eat junk and think you’re going to walk around 365 days a year with visible abs. You simply can’t out-train a poor diet. But what does your lack of a washboard stomach say about your overall health? Is there more going on than...
Alright lets look at the differences between Primo & Tren Ace. With Primobolan your looking at a very mild compound which isn't C17 alpha alkylated. The androgenic activity of Primo is considerably low, as well as its anabolic properties. Also it does not aromatize. So estrogen related side...
