Interesting no good studies have been done on anabolic use. Certainly not at the doses used in gyms . HGH and anabolic steroids are good at helping people recover from injury. Given the current level of competition, who during the season really recovers from nagging injuries. If you're injured you are at the highest risk for further injury. In a way taking something like HGH may be more protective than wearing a helmet

Whatever Bama is giving their guys has been working for a decade. I’m guessing it’s not cheap.

Same dude at FSU before Bama

Do you really think there isnt a D1 player who isnt using some form of anabolics? If you do, I have some really great ocean front property to sell to you site unseen.

If you're a dude named Loren it naturally makes sense that you'll get incredibly involved in lifting heavy weight. He's good just by his name alone

ABSOLUTELY there are players who DON'T use. dumbest thing i have read today that someone really believes they're ALL using some form of anabolics....
Thanks PANDFAN, appreciate the response.

You helped cement my understanding of them. It's understandable that some people would want to use them since I assume they can't be tested for yet? Or they haven't made many of the banned substances list? While they are less effective, they are also a black box of potential to people who want to get an edge. Truly a double edged sword.

HPTA shutdown means it'll shutdown natural testosterone production?

Peptides get denatured when consumed orally, I can't fathom how they could be effective with that method. Nasal, no idea how peptides cross the blood-brain barrier? Injection would seem the only viable solution for something like this.

Thanks for the aromatizing info. Clomid was what I was thinking of. Guys were using this at some point of their cycles, that's all I remember. I'm sure a lot has changed since I had these discussions with some gym goers over the years.

Have there been any peer reviewed studies on safe-effective anabolic use? or is it still garage science with lots of anecdotal tracking?
Some are testable and WADA banned, some are really worthwhile in terms of recovery... but I wouldn't use ones for muscle growthAs risk benefit isnt there although I get prescribed trt so I'm not looking ... the rate of absorption is relativeto the compound only very few can be through nasal spray, most are injectable, I am unable to quote any such literature however blood work is the most important factor when using compounds...

Did they elaborate at all?
I can't remember if it was one of the staff members or another poster on the site that seemed to have a good reputation with scoop, but I'm pretty sure I read something the other day there that said construction was going to start in the spring.

Can't wait to see the new 'Performance Center', it's going to be a massive space. I've listened to 3-4 podcasts where Loren was the guest and he discussed what he likes in his training facilities. He mentioned space being the biggest necessity. Should see a lot of turf'd area amongst other things.

I've seen a few "go get X player from Bama!" posts. Now I'm just sad we hadn't waited an extra month to see if we could poach their S&C guy...

Speaking of Landow, has anyone heard how he has been handling business so far at ND? Really huge job that is needed. Many Michigan players credited their S&C coach for the season they had.

I hear ya man. I think they are cheaters. But I also saw their linemen and running back bowl over Bama dudes. Maybe it’s steroids like Harbaugh’s Stanford days but they’re S&C deserves credit too
