Hey,
this old school hormone forum is pretty cool, nice work mods.
anyways, our own AM bro Seth Roberts just came out with his book called "Anabolic Pharmacology" and I would like give me 2cents after reading it. Mods if this doesnt belong here please move it to an appropriate forum please (I don't know where else it could go?)
OKay, the book is 409 pages excluding references section. The book distinguishes itself from other AAS books such as the ones written by Dan Duchain and Llewelyn by providing general chemistry, biology, pharmacology background early on so the reader is fairly well educated with enzyme pathways, receptor interactions, easier understanding of chemical names (-ene, -ol, -enone and etc) by the time the reader reaches the breakdowns of all the usual AAS (my favorite part), the reader exactly knows what he is talking about and can follow through. For example, in the AAS profile section, each AAS has its common names, chemical names, structure, 3D structure which is very cool and the best of all pharmacology of AAS, NOT from personal experiences of others but with scientific studies backed statements. There is a table which has ratings of affinity to AR, GR, PR, Q ratio (anabolic/androgenic) SHBG affinty and so on very useful and quick glance for fast reference.
It is NOT complicated like I said because the intro and the 1/3 of the book is dedicated to educating the reader but those sections are the most important.
why does anadrol cause bloat when it is DHT based?
why does deca cause severe shutdowns, libido loss etc? is it due to progesterone? is it due to prolactin?
How does binding to SHBG can cause sides?
and so on are all answered scientifically
bro'lores are busted open and the truth is told. LOL
there are also sections for the new prosteroids, old prohormones, and unknown rare AAS molecules that nobody has heard of and also ancillaries such as SERM, HCG, peptides, and AI are also written in details with its correct functions based on research. I thought I knew most of them but got new info out of every one of them.
There are cycle examples some of which are so different than the normal cycles you have to read to find out why.
Injections sites are discussed how different locations can elongate or shorten the 1/2 life of chemicals.
so it's a book for all newbies to all experienced....after reading it you should be able to talk the talk with those folks that love to throw out enzymes, chemical names, chemical functional groups and be able to reduce or flame the parrots repeating false and ancient info over and over getting nowhere (prolactin/progesterone confusion is one of them). Best yet you understand why certain things can cause unexpected sides and why some of the must be stacked together (inhibition of SHBG is it always good? why does deca **** occur? how can finasteride help other than minimizing hairloss,,,interesting stuff)
I like knowing everything about what i put in my body so this kind of stuff is a good tool/info to have for future reference when you decide to plan a cycle and etc. or to combat certain sides from certain chemicals.
all in all its pretty well written and its worth the money.
how much? i bought it from LGscience website (i think they are the only ones that carry it) for around 50 bucks shipped...got a free t shirt and two smaller books for free as well.
I usually dont buy AAS books due to the fear of paraphnalia but this is damn worth it,
nice work SR.
oh he is a nice guy too he has helped me many times with questions before through PM.
would like to hear others feedback if some of you read it
thanks for listening,
