I'd like to know , if a guy do like 2 cycles in a year , then stop steroids , will he still be advantaged ?
I mean , will he have more fibers muscles / easier gainer even 1 year after the cycles?
I've heard that steroids users , even after they stopped for long time , they were stronger then a guy who didn't take steroids at all , and who did exactly the same thing ( diet : training : and same genetic , like a clone ) .

Thanks for sharing your knowledges.
 
I was under the impression that it becomes more difficult for someone who took steroids to build muscle naturally as they have a lot more muscle mass to maintain and have to work twice as hard to actually gain any more muscle off cycle...
As far as strength goes I maybe am able to keep about 60% of strength gained on cycle.
But are you talking about actual long cycles or short lived 4-6 week PH cycles?
Most guys keep far more gains on the longer cycles

i was meaning an athlete for exemple who took steroids during 1 year ( 2 cycle for exemple ) , then stops bodybuilding for 5 years , then come back , he'll gain muscle faster then a guy who did the same , but without steroids.

I read some articles on that , steroids product some cells ( don't remember the name ) , that will last in your body even years after you stop taking steroids , so people who juiced once in their life , will always have this advantage even years after they stoped , and that may be the reason why juiced guy won't be able to take part of olympian games , cause they may have advantage compared to a natty guy
 
I think any long-term benefit would be outweighed by whatever % of hpta function lost from cycling, if any.

While that may be true, through research it has been shown that athletes may be permanently advantaged. I remember reading something on that but can only find references to it, not the original article form NY Times.

Yea , read that kind of things too
 
A person has a genetic predisposition, elite athletes are no different, just genetically gifted.

Once they are at their genetic limit, them, like anyone else will only be able to get past this with performance enhancement compounds.

And like everyone else, if they stop using them, they will return to where their genetically predisposed to be.

If they use ped's before they have reached this limit, that's a different story, and most likely the reason for keeping gains post cycle.

Hypertrophy and hyperplasia are two different things.

And info from the ny times... Well, nuff said.
