GH causes the liver to produce IGF-I that is released in circulation, GH is the precusor to IGF-I so to speak. Increasing circulating IGF-I will have little effect on muscle specifically. Causes somatic growth (whole body), but not muscle specific. Only direct, constant infusion into a muscle...

DHT may help libido. It is DHT that drives libido in men, however straight DHT isn't going to do much with regard to anabolic effects in muscle and DHT is the driving force behind the masculinizing effects of testosterone. For menopause, I'd suggest testosterone. W6

A glass of melot or cab isn't a problem. The hepatic stress of 5 mg/d of OX is pretty low. The small amt of alcohol from a glass of wine isn't going to put anyone's hepatic function over the edge unless there's some serious underlying disease to begin with. In fact, the anti-oxidant effect of...

3% is possible in women contest ready. I did DEXA, UW and skinfold measures on a few pros back in the mid-late 90's. Had them around 4 - 5% on all measures and they were not quite as ripped as some of the women today. One just under 4% and she was ripped. Had to use an athletic men's SF...

Don't get to the boards very often these days. There isn't a rule of thumb for carb cycling. You have to do what works for you. 0.5 g/lb and 2.0 g/lb would work, but higher days perhaps 1.5 g/lb is enough. Fats about the same each day, could be little higher on low days, but I've always used...

Yes it is good for stability work, BUT you don't get the same mechanical loading because you have to reduce the weight. Thus, less muscle mass and strength. Mix it up. Stability work only will not maximize strength, power or muscle mass. W6

The insulin resistance/beta-agonist issue also has to do with down regulation of beta-receptors that occurs with clen use. Why would clen inhibit the loss of E-fat? I would assume that clen is more specific to the beta receptor than alpha, but have never read an article that describes its...

Personally, If you're planning on having kids, wait on the anabolics until after you have your kids. Why take a chance. and..don't confuse corticosteroids with anabolic/androgenic steroids. Big difference. W6

So MS, you think this stuff really works? I received some samples to try from the distributor. Gave the YES to my client that is getting ready for a fitness show a few weeks ago. Just gave her the T-Rex and Lev-x yesterday. Trying to assess the results. She's very anal about everything, so if...

Estrogen partitions food toward fat to some degree, androgens toward muscle. Overall, hormones are more responsible with where fat is deposited when caloric intake exceeds expenditure, and how hard is it to get rid of specific fat depots than total fat per se. W6

Gut fat, the fat under the muscle (visceral) is more likely to cause insulin resistance than be a function of it. Deep gut fat releases adiponectin causing increased insulin sensitivity by mechanisms that are not clear, and there is an inverse correlation between the size of gut fat adipocytes...

Yes. 1-AD appears by structure to have more androgenic potential, and from what some of the guys say about it, I would recommend against it for a woman. Wouldn't even recommend norandro per se, but the anabolics with less sides are not a legal option. W6

Trains each bodypart once a week, heavy everyother week, abs twice. Tues = Chest/back Wed = Legs Fri = Shoulders/arms Would like to spread it out a little more, but her home and work schedule won't permit. Married, 2 kids and 2 jobs, lives 30 min from the gym. Workouts last 50 - 60 min, max...
