Tendon building ?

[DeadWards]

Is there an AS that builds tendons/connection tissues better then other AS. I am in the healing end of a bicep tear and want to get back as fast as possible without risking tearing it again. I thought I heard Equipoise did that but I can't find that info anymore. Any thoughts or knowledge on this would be a big help!!

Thanks everyone

look into prolotherapy, it will speed recovery. I dont think you will find an AAS that will be of any help, GH would help some though.

HGH can make the tendons grow ...Deca can make joints feel better thats it ..But I dont think any A.S has anything to do with tendons

Stimulation of collagen synthesis by the anabolic steroid stanozolol.

There is evidence that anabolic steroids, which are derived from testosterone and have markedly less androgenic activity, promote activities remain unclear. In this report, we measured the effect of the anabolic steroid stanozolol on cell replication and collagen synthesis in cultures of adult human dermal
fibroblasts. Stanozolol (0.625-5 microg per ml) had no effect on fibroblast replication and cell viability (p = 0.764) but enhanced collagen synthesis (p < 0.01) in a dose-dependent manner (r = 0.907). Stanozolol also increased (by 2-fold) the mRNA levels of alpha1 (I) and alpha1 (III) procollagen and, to a similar extent, upregulated transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) mRNA and peptide levels (p < 0.001). There was no stimulation of collagen synthesis by testosterone. The stimulatory effects of stanozolol on
collagen synthesis were blocked by a TGF-beta1 anti-sense oligonucleotide, by antibodies to TGF-beta, and in dermal fibroblast cultures derived from TGF-beta1 knockout mice. We conclude that collagen synthesis is increased by the anabolic steroid stanozolol and that, for the most part, this effect is due to TGF-beta1. These findings point to a novel mechanism of action of anabolic steroids
