    frozen shoulders therapies?

    There are three stages to frozen shoulder - freezing, frozen, and thawing. Nothing will help in the first two stages. Frozen shoulder will take as long as frozen shoulder decides it will take to get back to normal. There is literally nothing you can do to "unfreeze" it, it's not a true injury...

    How many days prior to blood draw do you not lift weights?

    2 to 3 days It's not necessarily the T levels but strenuous workouts can cause elevated liver and kidney values. This elevation can last for up to 48 hours. If you are just getting T levels tested then you should be good with a 24 hour no workout period.

    Stop Crushing Anavar Under Your Tongue- It Won't Work

    Alcohol can help break up those binders and fillers. High grade vodka works well. I know some pill delivery systems are designed to get past the stomach acids but want aware anavar was in that category and still not sure it is. I'll look that up but if you have a pointer to where that is...

    many old school/banned ph/ds!!! what to stack for first cycle and training in 10 years???

    Just my opinion here and I'm guessing you are just starting back. Put all that stuff back in the closet. Get back to where the gym is just part of your life again. Work out all the kinks, small aches, and strength imbalances you might have from not working out over the years. Get your diet in a...

    Brachioradialis Strain

    About 1.5 months ago I tore both my brachialis muscles Grade2 interstitial tear and ruptured tendons. Not full tears so I escaped surgery. I wouldn't recommend taking time off but definitely a deload week. Keep blood flow going to the tendons but no real stress. BPC157 and TB500 can help but...

    Glute Nerve/muscle issues post injection

    If ibuprofen is helping it's probably inflammation, if it isn't red and hot then not much to be concerned about. Bad sticks happen sometimes, it's best to continue to keep moving the body part as normal and working out with it. that will keep blood flow going to the damaged tissue.

    Recommend me a stack - Mass Gaining

    I'll defer to others about the supplement stack but, as you seem to have found out, low carb diets are not good for bodybuilding. Carbs will put glycogen and water into your muscles fueling them and making them look better (fuller). Also they do not make you fat, excess calories are what makes...

    50 and consistent

    Metabolol and Metabolol 2 - those were my favorites. I remember saving enough money to get Cybergenics, went to GNC and the guy behind the counter said "it's 140 but I'll give it to you for 110 if you don't need a receipt" I was like heck yea. I wonder now if the dude actually worked there...

    epiandrosterone and HDL levels

    I got you beat on the join date :) I did a 9week run of epiA at the turn of the year with a ramp up starting at 300 all the way up to 900 per day. My LDL was raised slightly but it was still in the "good" range, HDLs didnt seem to be affected. I was on a statin at the time so that might have...

    50 and consistent

    Great to see you here! Lots of guys your (our) age on the board with tons of knowledge. Glad to see you got cleaned up and back in the gym it really is the best therapy. You talking about Flex magazine takes me back, I was a big fan of M&F until MM2k came out in the 90's. Wasn't no youtube or...

    What’s Next for Michael Krizo?

    Very well written. I think there is one element that people overlook sometimes and that is momentum. In such a subjective sport like bodybuilding winners sometimes win because they won before. Even a one point seperation can be tough to overcome just simply because at face value it was a loss...

    An easy place to get bloodwork

    Comes with a device you attach to your arm and it pulls capillary blood. They provide a heating pouch to really warm up the area first. Totally pain free and the vial on mine filled in less than a minute. Prepaid envelope to fed ex it back.

    An easy place to get bloodwork

    Yea but have you seen the prices? Just a simple men's hormone panel runs over $100. I was going to LabCorp and paying over 300 to get all the markers I wanted. That's a bit rich for my blood (pun intended). With this a person can get the markers they need and it's cheap enough to run regularly.
