I really dont know, that why I want some experts to weigh in, so these theories can start being developed and tested
Id like to think it was that simple at least in theory, it can give us a way to estimate anabolic, androgenic, and suppressive effects. A way to titrate effects.
No doubt these compounds have varying amounts of anabolism, androgenicity, and suppression. The thought of being able to manipulate them positively is a very alluring idea. This was the whole idea behind a Q ratio. In medicinal practices, much higher doses are used which will cause suppression regardless. Patho These hormones werent developed with the bodybuilder in mind whose purposes are more aesthetic. Anyway
This is not the way that steroids are typically used. They are used expecting a great deal of suppresion with explosive gains, taking PCT into account for harm reduction, BUT WHAT IF, JUST IF.......
the scales can be tipped in favor of growth with minimal suppression, while gaining more anabolism, unit for unit, than would be lost.
AN ANABOLIC PARABLE:
Think of your test production as a factory full of workers. This factory can only hold a limited number of workers. There are 2 kinds jobs in the factory, production and logistics. You have your original "A" workers. They know how to do both jobs in the factory, but they work slow. Also they are part of a union, and when too many of them are layed off, the A workers will go on strike. "B" workers, work extremely fast, 4X as fast, have no union and can be brought in to work for cheap. The problem is the only job they can do is production. They cannot do logistics so the factory will shutdown eventually without "A" workers there to keep it running. "A" workers can be replaced by machines but these machines will never run smoothly and always need maintnance. There is no good replacement for union workers. The big question is how many "A" workers can you replace with "B" workers and keep everything running smooth, while maximizing production, and avoiding a strike or the cost of buying machines??
INTERPRETATION:
You are the factory owner
"A" workers represent Testosterone
"B" workers represent Superdrol
The union represents your HTPA axis
Machines represent TRT or HRT
Production is muscle building
Logistics is androgenic effects: libido, mental health, energy (sans lethargy
A worker strike is Shutdown
ADDITIONAL SCENARIOS:
"A" workers vacation:
Lay A workers off temporarily, but call it a vacation, and pay for a cruise for them, keeping the union happy. B workers will produce massive production but there will be a big mess to clean up when they return. So it might take a while to clean up. Also the union gets upset when workers go on too many or too long of vacations because they dont get their union fees for when "A" dont work
SERM are the vacation cruise offered to A workers to return
Suppression is the mess to clean up
I hope you all enjoyed reading that as much as I did writing it.
It seems like on a xy scale, testosterone has a linear anabolism to suppression ratio of 1:1
While high anabolic/ low androgenic compounds have a linear anabolism to suppression ratio of 2:1 - 10:1
This is in theory. In practice linear trends are rarely seen, and can only be used as approximations
If we can break it down mathematically into units of anabolism, suppression and androgenocity, we can approximate units of test displaced, units of anabolism gained, units of endegenous test lost/maintained.
WILL THIS WORK????????? I HAVE NO IDEA
