Article: Torn Biceps Heal Faster With Steroids

Lol, seriously? Duh? I think this has been known for 60 years now...
 
This states nothing about which steroids were used. It would make a huge difference. Testosterone for example will not help at all in healing of this type of injury, and high levels will actually make it worse via hindered collagen synthesis. Without details, the article isn't very helpful at all and can be misleading.

So what anaboliics are we talki bout for healing properties besides GH
 
Could be that those who used steroids were also more concerned about their overall physique and athletic potential compared to the others and may have taken other measures to help repair their joints. Lots of possibility for confounding variables.
