Would AAS speed recovery from orthopedic surgery?

[Lumberg]

I would wait a couple weeks as AAS increases Pro Time...AKA clotting time and that could be bad.

Whoa, that is VERY good to know.

I was thinking of taking my frist dose right before surgery so it would be in my system already.

The surgery I am having is minimally invasive, and it's for tennis elbow (no I am not a raquetsports player). I was thinking of doing a super short cycle, like a week or two (I am a big advocate of that). Just to jump-start the healing very early on. Not worried about strength at all, just want the outcome to be as positive as possible. Also a short cycle minimizes HTPA shutdown.

I want to live to be a very old man, and I want to be lifting for as much of my life as possible. I'd take benching 100# when I am 90 over being big now any day.

A couple years back I completely ripped my pectoral tendon off the bone... When I was finally allowed to start using 5lbs weights for physical therapy I used Laurabolin... a small dosage for 10 weeks. Honestly, I can't really say how much it helped strength'n my tendons. Just make sure you don't hurt yourself because you feel like you can lift more weight than you should.

I have had 4 ortho operations and do NOT sugguest taking AS after them.

come to think of it, if i had aas i probably could have avoided at least 4 of the surgeries...live and learn.

can you give a reason rather than just a no answer?

My orthopedic surgeon has told me that it's absolutely true that AAS helps healing from orthopedic injuries.

Also note I don't plan to use the AAS to hit the gym harder and sooner than usual. I just want to heal and move on and maximize my chances of a positive outcome. I am not a big juicer. I will probably never be as strong, big, or lean as most guys who juice seriously. I leave that to the pros.

and if your not sure who to listen to check out Quads profile..... Deca and Test for a poor man will do the trick.

for me, i have had to come back extremely slow. If i had taken AS while recovering I know i would have pushed it too much. Not on purpose, but you feel like your ok, but may not be.

Ok on his profile I just see pics. Are you saying just based off the way he looks? Or does he have other qualifications?

I've known him as a respected mod/vet for a while. Don't really care too much how he looks. Is there something else I am missing?

Thanks & k to all who offered comments, even if I don't agree they are all important and noted.
