***Section 1, Part 1, Workout Routines/Fitness Articles/News Updates***

"Training, the Mental Aspects - Written by Bigcanuk" We all are creatures of habit. It's something that a bodybuilder wants to avoid though. A lot of us still cling to the same old routines we've been plugging away at and perhaps we try to add some extra weight every week to tell ourselves we're progressing but we all know when we team up with a new partner for a workout or two and get into some new, radical exercises, we feel a huge difference occurring. New muscle fibers getting hit, better growth, more rev, etc.

We've all experienced this and yet a few weeks later, we start falling into the same trappings and stagnate again. Is there a way to avoid this and keep the fire burning? We all know most of the battle is in the mind anyway. If we can see ourselves doing it, we can. If we can't see it, we don't do it. That's why it's so important to see your muscles in your mind as you do the exercise just pumping up and getting huge and ripped.

If you can see it, you can achieve it. I recently read an article where they took a large group of people and half of them were put on a weight training program. The other half were told to spend their time just thinking about weight training. (Now mind you these test subjects probably weren't bodybuilders but the results are amazing nonetheless.)

At the end of 2 months, the people who just saw themselves training in their minds had better results than the ones who actually did the training!

Now, I know I'm talking to a group of guys who know no limits and are burning with the desire to hypertrophy no matter what it takes so it would stand to reason that if we will do the "big" things to do it, we should definitely do the "little" things to ensure we get the body we know we can unlock and possess.

Since about 90% of our brain isn't even knowingly used by us, we should put emphasis on that area. The visualization technique is just such a tool. As I said earlier, see the muscle just exploding in growth. The reason we have mirrors in the gym is for that visual effect. Now, imagine this. You see yourself getting a pump while doing an exercise by looking in the mirror as you workout or you mentally see yourself literally exploding with growth in your mind as you do the exercise. If you see yourself doing it, even just mentally, the body usually follows.

Just another example of this that we've all heard is where they took a bunch of basketball players and divided them into two groups. The first group spent an hour per day shooting baskets while the other group sat for an hour an imagined themselves shooting baskets. At the end of two months, the group who imagined shooting baskets far out shot the actual practicing group! Apparently, when you imagine yourself shooting baskets, you always see it going through the hoop. You never imagine/see the ball miss the shot. When you practice shooting, many shots are missed and you see that. The body responds in like fashion and the results speak for themselves.

There's no reason we can't apply this to our bodybuilding routines. If it means extra growth, better cuts, making that lift we've always wanted to get or just getting that edge we could all use, why not start at the place where it all starts? In your mind!

"Anadrol-50 (Oxymetholone) 50 mg Tablet"

General Information: Anabolic/androgenic steroids are analogues of male hormone testosterone. Both have a core 17-carbon steroid chemical structure that gives them anabolic (protein building) and androgenic (masculinizing) properties. Studies were developed to separate the anabolic from the androgenic effects but this has been only partially accomplished. The androgenic effects of endogenous testosterone are the development of male reproductive system and secondary sexual characteristics.

The anabolic effects include growth and epiphyses closure of long bones during puberty,

enlargement of larynges and vocal cords, improvement of red cells number, reduce body fat, and improve corporal mass (muscle).

There are two ways for anabolic steroids administration (oral and injection). Oral steroids are highly potent and are excreted fairly rapidly from the body due to short metabolic half-lives(usually within weeks). So, oral steroids are the first choice for athletes who want to rapidly improve their performance and try to escape from the drug tests. Unhappily, these drugs are the most toxic and which have more side effects. Injectable steroids are less potent and generally exhibit delayed absorption into the body, especially if they are oil-based diligent. They have less liver toxicity than oral steroids, but they are being less used by athletes in having a delectability in drug tests for long periods.

Anadrol-50 (Oxymetholone) is a synthetic male hormone which enhances and repair’s the body tissue-building process. They are used medically to treat anemia (low red blood cell count); to control breast cancer in women; to improve weight loss due to severe illness (Aids), and to treat osteoporosis (bone loss).

Anadrol-50 (Oxymetholone) is taken orally. It may be taken with food or milk if stomach upset occurs. Take this medication exactly as prescribed. Increasing your dosage, will increase the risk of side effects. While taking this medication, schedule periodic lab tests to monitor the effectiveness of therapy.

Side Effects: Nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, diarrhea, trouble sleeping or excitation may occur the first several days as your body adjusts to the medication. Other side effects include acne, yellowing of the skin or mood changes. Males before puberty may experience increases in penis size, higher frequency of erections, and hair growth. After puberty, males may experience loss of scalp hair, breast tenderness or swelling, painful erections, trouble urinating, and changes in sex drive. If any of these effects continue or become bothersome, inform your doctor. Women should notify their doctor if they develop a deepening of the voice, hoarseness, an increase in body hair, changes in sex drive or menstrual changes while taking this medication. Notify your doctor if you develop vomiting, skin color changes or swelling of the feet or ankles while taking this medication. Diabetics must closely monitor urine and blood sugar while taking this medication and report any changes to your doctor. Anabolic steroids may stop or stunt growth in children under 18 years of age.

Precautions: Anadrol-50 (Oxymetholone) should not be used during pregnancy or while breast-feeding. This medication should not be used by men with breast or prostate cancer. Due to serious adverse effects, this medication must not be used to improve athletic performance or physical appearance. Contact your doctor if you have any pre-existing heart, liver or kidney disease, coronary artery disease, seizure disorders, diabetes or allergies.

Interactions: Inform your doctor of any over-the-counter or prescription medication you may be taking including blood thinners, warfarin or oral medication for diabetes.

"CANTHAXANTHIN- A TAN FROM A PILL"

CANTHAXANTHIN "THE TANNING PILL"- Written by Unique

That's canthaxanthin--pronounced can-tha-zan-thin. Canthaxanthin is a well-studied carotenoid widely distributed throughout nature. Not withstanding beta-carotene, canthaxanthin has probably been studied more than any other carotenoid. In order to understand the functions of canthaxanthin, a comprehension of the group of molecules called the carotenoids is necessary.

Carotenoids are biological pigments that are both the coloring of living organisms and the necessary molecules needed for important metabolic reactions. They are distributed in leaves, flowers, fruits and roots of plants. Carotenoids are also found in many animals, especially in marine invertebrates. They also tend to accumulate in brightly colored feathers of tropical birds. All carotenoids that are found in animals are ultimately derived from plants or algae. Carotenoids are potent antioxidant molecules that protect plants from damage caused by single and triplet oxygen produced by ultra violet rays and photosynthetic metabolism. They are free radical scavengers that prevent harmful uncontrolled oxidation chain reactions.

Carotenoids also protect plants from direct ultra violet damage by absorbing high-energy ultra violet photons and dissipating the energy along their hydrocarbon chains. Mutant plants that contain no carotenoids soon die due to ultra violet induced damage to the chlorophyll. The beautiful array of orange, yellow, and red leaves in the autumn is colored by the carotenoid pigments. The green chlorophyll’s are destroyed by the cold and free radicals, thereby, unmasking the various carotenoids the leaves also contain. Likewise, in animals, carotenoids act as ultra violet light absorbers, antioxidants, and free radical scavengers, protecting DNA from genetic damage.

The carotenoids consist of two main groups: the carotene’s and the xanthophylls. Beta carotene, which nearly everyone is familiar with, is the most common CAROTENE. On the other hand, Canthaxanthin is a xanthophyll. A difference worth noting is that beta carotene converts in the mammalian system to Vitamin A. Canthaxanthin, as well as all xanthophylls, do not convert to any extent to Vitamin A.

Canthaxanthin is a naturally occurring carotenoid found in many different plants and animals. It is the red coloring of many fruits, vegetables, and flowers, as well as some edible mushrooms. It gives the pink hue of the feathers of brightly colored tropical birds such as flamingos and roseate spoonbills. A few species of pink shellfish and some ocean crustaceans such as the red lobster contain this xanthophyll as does the pink flesh of salmon and the red spots on the skin of trout. Besides being a red pigment, canthaxanthin functions as an ultra violet photon absorber, a single and triplet oxygen quencher, and a free radical deactivator. The incredible endurance of pink salmon on their long migrations to spawning grounds may be possibly due to the antioxidant qualities of the canthaxanthin that saturates their bodies. They swim for thousands of miles in highly ionized oxygenated water (condition which would normally be fatal to a fish) without damage or death.

A major cause of skin cancer is repeated sunburns to the skin. Damage to DNA due to ultra violet radiation, excited forms of oxygen, and free radicals can cause mutations which lead to carcinogenesis. The use of canthaxanthin may decrease one's chances of getting skin cancer by decreasing the necessary exposure time in sunlight and preventing sunburn damage to the skin.

OK, I know what everyone is asking, "That's very wonderful Unique--we can see that canthaxanthin is an awesome compound, but how does this SPECIFICALLY help me, a bodybuilder?" To answer this question, we must understand what happens to carotenoids when ingested in large quantities. I am sure everyone has heard that if a person eats too many carrots their skin will turn yellow.

Indeed, this is true and the condition has been termed carotenemia. Sometimes, this can appear to be jaundice, however, with jaundice the whites of the eyes become yellow, while carotenoids only color the skin and not the eyes. Beta carotene does a fine job of coloring the skin (actually the fat under the skin); however, the color is yellow--not very cosmetically pleasing! A

carotenoid that would color the skin a tan color would be ideal--both for health and cosmetic reasons. Well, we're in luck--meet canthaxanthin. While beta carotene is a yellow orange carotenoid, canthaxanthin is a deep red/brown. Thus, when carotenemia occurs, a much darker, orange/red/brown color will appear. On most parts of the body (except perhaps the palms and soles of the feet where it can appear orange) the coloring is very reminiscent of a tan. Furthermore, I have found that canthaxanthin will enhance an actual tan by 2-3 fold. Thus, one would have to lay in the sun or in a tanning booth much less to get the required tan. Finally, the time spent in the ultra violet rays would be much less harmful because the canthaxanthin would be quenching the free radicals and absorbing the photons! Pretty cool, huh?

Are there any side effects to using canthaxanthin? Yes, it turns the stool a reddish color. The body will expel excess amounts that are not assimilated in the body, thus coloring body waste. The only other side effect is orange palms and soles of the feet. However, this can be controlled with dosage. Usually, the orange color appears with very excessive dosages--cutting the dosage in half usually controls this phenomenon. What are the most common misconceptions about canthaxanthin?

1. Canthanthin stimulates melanin in the skin. This is a blatant lie and any company making these claims is defrauding the public. Canthaxanthin has nothing to do with the skin's normal tanning process from ultra violet ray stimulation.

2. Canthanxanthin will color the hair and eyes. NOT TRUE! Canthaxanthin only colors subcutaneous fat--thus giving the appearance of colored skin.

3. Canthaxanthin causes liver damage. FALSE. Canthaxanthin is non-toxic. The confusion may come from any of the two following reasons: a. Excessive Vitamin A can cause Vitamin A Toxicity which could lead to liver damage. The carotenoid beta carotene is pro-Vitamin A and converts on demand into Vitamin A as the body needs it. Unlike beta carotene, Canthaxanthin is not pro-Vitamin A.

b. Liver failure can cause jaundice. The coloration of the skin by carotenoids is not the same as being jaundiced. If this stuff is so good, why don't we hear more about it? Basically, we have our most wonderful (yeah, right!) FDA to thank. Only one company in the U.S. manufacturers this compound and the FDA puts much pressure on this company to restrict its sale. The FDA will not allow it to be sold as a tanning agent. Thus, it must be sold as a food colorant/dye (how it is used in the food industry). It is an arduous task to market such a compound and few companies are willing to spend the time and effort in doing so. Canthaxanthin can be bought through some mail order companies in muscle magazines in the form of capsules--however it is usually very expensive. Fortunately, Massquantities (web site), carries canthaxanthin in bulk, powder form at roughly half the cost. Now, a person can enjoy the health and cosmetic benefits of canthaxanthin without going broke!

How should canthaxanthin be taken? I have found that 500 mg of the 10% powder (50 mg of canthaxanthin) three times daily should be sufficient to saturate the body with the carotenoid. Usually, it takes about a month to reach full saturation. Once saturation is reached, the dosage can be cut in half. This conserves on this precious supplement and also will reduce any orange color of the palms of the hands and the soles of the feet. Finally, it takes about 3-4 weeks AFTER saturation before the color will be golden bronze. At first it has an orange tint. This darkens in time or through a small amount of sun exposure. This is called equalizing the molecules, which turns the red canthaxanthin molecules brown. IF YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO TAKE CANTHAXANTHIN FOR AT LEAST SIX WEEKS CONSISTENTLY THEN YOU WILL NOT KNOW HOW IT WORKS FOR YOU! Six weeks is really not that long and the result is well worth the wait--the coloring is pleasing and is quite easy to maintain!

As the summer approaches with its requirement of having a tan, don't waste countless hours in the sun just to get that tan. Instead, invest in some canthaxanthin and be a tan ahead of everyone else!

***Section 6, Part 1, Questions and Answers***

A) I’m planning a trip to Mexico, where do I go, who do I see, what do I look for???

Recently, one of our members went on a trip to Tijuana, and here’s a description of his trip:

Tijuana Trip - by Smitty

I just returned from my San Diego trip and it was very productive. I thought you might like to hear about my experience. Fortunately, I asked you for advice before I went and it really helped. I crossed the border at Tijuana and got a taxi. I asked to go to a vet and after some language barriers were overcome, the taxi driver took me to one. They had Laurabolin 50, Norandren 50, Reforvit-B, and Equipoise stacked on the shelf! More importantly, it was all very affordable. For instance, 50ml of Reforvit-B was $20.00! This is what I got there:

2- 50ml of Revorvit-B

3- 50ml of Norandren 50

1- 50ml of Laurabolin 50

1- 50ml of Equi-gan

The grand total for all of this was $250.00. The only one that I possibly thought could be fake was the Equi-gan. I couldn't find the ones listed in the WAR under Equipoise but I was willing to risk it since you recommended it and the WAR spoke highly of Equipoise. This one had the expiration dates stamped on the box and label like the WAR said to look for. The other four I felt were real and he did have all of them on display. I read that stores typically hide fakes and bring them out for customers when they try to sell them. I wanted to buy more but there was the problem of crossing the border! I went to a regular pharmacy to try and find some HCG, proviron and Clomid. While in the pharmacy, this really big American came in. I started talking to him because I knew why he was in there. He said he had been there the day before and came to this pharmacy all the time. As a matter of fact, the pharmacist let him go in the back and take an injection. He and I discussed what the store had and he told me what had worked for him. He told me that everything he had bought there was legit. Well after hearing that, I ended buying a little more. He told me what good results he had gotten from the Maxigan 50%. He also told me he had tried the Methandrostenolone tabs and they were great. He did tell me that the only thing he ever thought might be fake was some Deca he bought the day before. Thanks to your vet suggestion, I didn't have to worry about that. He also eased my fear about crossing the border but did warn me they had x-ray machines for all of your packages. I had been debating on whether to put my stuff inside of my "tourist gifts" that I bought so I would look more like a tourist. I would have been in real trouble if he hadn't told me about the x-ray. So this is what I bought at that pharmacy:

1- 50ml Maxigan 50% (50mg/ml, I guess that's what the 50% means. I couldn't find it under Equipoise in the WAR.)

2- 10000 I.U. amps HCG

30 tabs 50mg/ea Omifin

42 tabs 20mg/ea Nolvadex

120 tabs .02 mg Spiropent

300 tabs 5mg/ea Methandrostenolone (small blue tabs, I wouldn't have trusted them if the American hadn't told me they were legit and he used them.)

They were out of Proviron. I left the pharmacy as happy as a kid leaving the proverbial "candy store". It then struck me that I had to get all of this across the border! The American told me just to stick it in my pants. Well, as you can see, I had a lot of things and my jeans were too tight! So I bought some baggy khaki pants and went to the bathroom. I brought some athletic tape with me and proceeded to tape the vials to my legs and stuffed some in my underwear. It was quite uncomfortable to walk. Maybe I should write an article in your newsletter about how to stuff your pants with steroids discreetly! Just kidding! Anyway, I made it across with no questions asked by the border agents.

What do you think? Did I do well or did I forget something important? I'm really interested in reading your cycle suggestion. I guess I have way too much for one cycle. If you have time, could you please explain the reasoning behind your cycle suggestion. It isn't because I doubt your advice but because I would like to further my anabolic knowledge and thought it would be valuable to know why you suggest what you do. Also, with this much stronger cycle in store for me, how should I change my workouts? I just mean in general terms like how many days and which body parts together, not specific exercises and reps. I have one stupid question, how much is one ml in terms of cc's? Is it 1 to 1?

I would just like to thank you very much for your help. The vet suggestion saved me a lot of money and helped me avoid the fakes as the WAR said most vet steroids haven't been counterfeited (Equipoise not included). I really appreciate your time and feel you saved me a lot of money and in finding legit products.

I’ve received word, that there seems to be some counterfeit Extraboline(Deca) from Greece going around. It looks identical to the real stuff (same box, labels), but many people think it is fake or under dosed. Also, there is some counterfeit Parabolan going around. Most people think it contains some type of testosterone.

Counterfeits: (copies/good products)

Here are some of the counterfeits floating around, good news is that they actually contain what they are suppose it. They all look legit, except the labels peel off too easily (on the Steris Products). I’ll record lot#/date as they become available.

Negma (France), Parabolan, Exp. 08/96
