Original title: Steroids are awesome.
Question: Does it make sense, to do lengthened partials on chin ups, where there is nearly no challenge in the bottom part. Greetings from Germany (Johannes)
So I should have taken steroids to get ripped and not become so large.
Wellp, to late now…
All you guys are sad
make sure you have good amount of vitamin D to boost testestrone
Natty bulk till 40 then think about gear……
Excellent video , appreciate the content Jeff !
Clickbait garbage. Get a life
thats not a carboxyl group
[02:55] Your heart is also a muscle so of course the same happens there, the testosterone enters your heart cells and tells your DNA to make your heart bigger. The extra bulk makes it harder for your heart to squeeze and relax this means your heart won't be able to pump blood as effectively which increases your risk of heart failure. | [06:16] Some testosterone is converted into oestrogen which can increase soft tissue formation in men, leading to soft puffy nipples also known as gyno. | [8:58] Your connective tissue cannot maintain the pace of your muscular strength and often this will lead to unnecessary injury. You'll see often bodybuilders end up with brutal injuries. | [13:32] Have you been training hard and smart for 10 years? |
Yes Jeff, maybe you are not injecting/taking steroids, but what about the ones you eat (meats and animal products), those ones count too as taking hormones/steroids if not ask Canelo Alvarez (the mexican boxer) jaja
Hey Jeff – Please change the video's title or add an asterisk Before clicking the video. I genuinely believed the title of the video and took it literally. As you know the title of the video will be viewed by way more people than the ones who actually took the time to watch this excellent and informative video and thus can believe the statement used as a title = Steroids are awesome. Thank You.
TRT, with physician tracking you and labs twice a year keep your levels 700-900 is the key won’t hurt your heart and organs at all, infact medical studies show low T is more deadly making men 40 plus suffer from metabolic syndrome gut gets huge, insulin and diabetes sets in Hugh blood pressure all sorts of shit. I would never use testosterone at a steroid cycle dose no way! Too risky and most certainly will harm body over time. I had to do something when I hit 40 my labs showed my tit testosterone was 167 weeks waited 3 months tested again during that time I worked out and cleaned up my diet, it was 191 So I decided that I can’t stay that low and now I have it 800
And I feel great 👍
My former gym owner took stuff and died at around 43 from a heart attack…
An other gym owner took nothing, but the heavy weights made him have back surgery, hip replacement surgery, elbow and shoulder surgeries…
Tell the title to Rich Piana 😂🤣
i didnt have time to watch video, but thanks to the title im gonna try steroids. thank you.

A hell of a lot of body builder's died during covid at a disproportionate rate. Not sure of the mechanism but something was going on.
All drugs take from the future to give to you now. Steroids will reduce your lifespan.
OMG I love your channel and its great science based approach! Then what did you do? You raised the bar and interviewed Dr Mike–Science Muscle God???!!! Too fantastic!!!
Great video Jeff thanks for that. If I was ever considering steroids I'm definitely not now.
With steroids: anxiety
Without steroids: anxiety
confusion
lol I do not want to join you on that journey.
