I'm quite familiar with Krista Scott-Dixon's website--she's a consultant for Precision Nutrition and competes in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (there aren't very many women in the sport). She's awesome, and since you recommended her site, I'm willing to bet that you're pretty awesome yourself! Thank you...

Hey musclemom, thanks for the encouragement! As you might imagine, I've been on a number of rather strict nutritional plans over the last couple of years, but currently I am eating along the lines of John Berardi's Precision Nutrition program. It's pretty standard, as far as things go... I...

I tend to lurk on the discussion boards more than I post, but I thought I'd tell you about my experience with hydrostatic body composition testing. I've been curious about my body fat percentage for a while, but today I finally decided to take advantage of the hydrostatic tank at a nearby...

Thank you both for the suggestions. I've been on 8mg/day for over a week and a half now with no problems and I'm feeling great, so I have to admit that I'm a little hesitant to lower my dosage back to the 2-4 mg a day my doctor initially prescribed. How long do you think it would take for...

I went to the doctor a few weeks ago and had some blood work done--it turns out that my free testosterone level was relatively low (17 on a scale of 6 - 82, with the average level for a healthy premenopausal woman being around 31). I am in my mid 20s and my doctor's theory is that when I lost...

I am by no means one of the experts on this forum, but I have listened to their advice long enough to know what they are likely to tell you: if you "need to lose a lot of weight" you should not be on AAS. You should not be even considering AAS. You should be worrying about your diet and...

Ha--yeah I figured it was rare, given that so many people have used it without their livers failing.

I am not particularly worried about some mild sides. It's just that I want to choose wisely and pick the path with the best cost/benefit ratio, so if Winny isn't particularly "safe" for women, and furaguno is possibly even stronger than Winny--well, it wounds like var is the better choice...

Well, those don't sound like the most promising experience reports I've ever heard. :( I am surprised that it seemed *stronger* than Winny. That doesn't sound quite like what I wanting for my first cycle. Meh, I am ridiculously hesitant and indecisive when it comes to the AAS issue. To put...

Also, I hope it wasn't bad form to mention the arrests--they were all over the news, unfortunately, and I wasn't mentioning them with the intention of calling anyone out. I just wanted to point out that the legal risks are absurd in my state right now.

Hey everybody, I am wondering if anyone has had any experience with Furaguno, the designer Japanese prosteroid (which is, according to my research, a non-methylated derivative of Furazabol, which is chemically related to Winstrol)? I know that most of you take issue with the use of prosteroids...

Holy crap.

Every once in a while I get discouraged because I have to work twice as hard as the guys I train with just to be taken seriously. It's difficult to earn respect in a combat sport when you're a female. For example, sometimes when I get a submission hold on a guy and force him to tap out...

I know, I know.

Penjak silat seems like a really interesting and brutal art--that's cool that you got to train in it. Speaking of MMA fighters and muscle--did you happen to catch the Cris Cyborg vs. Gina Carano fight the other weekend? If you didn't, you should YouTube the video. Cris Cyborg's body blows...
