Recently I wrote about the Anabolic Doc, and when I spoke to him he explained that the vast majority of his patients were arriving later then sooner . They were in their 40′s , have been using steroids for 15 plus years, don’t go to the doctors ever. So when they arrive they have hypertension , sexual dysfunction, and have several other lingering aliments. This is not necessarily due to the steroids, but a combination of poor health choices, a lack of Doctor’s interaction and just in general, practices that can do damage to the healthiest body ( like excessive protein, which beats on your kidneys good ).

I don’t know how many times I have said, posted , or proclaimed you should have all your blood work done before and during a cycle . Even a Physical before you start would be a great idea.  This goes a long way  into a huge epidemic of Juicers who do not take the proper precautions and we wonder why the outside world has such a poor perspective of what steroids do. They see a steroid user in the ER and he had a small M.I ( heart attack ) , and all they think is ” He does steroids so obviously it was that” . How many people have heart attacks a year? But a muscular man walks in the door, and it is steroids. No, it is typically the lack of medical attention over the years.

I asked myself , what is the answer? At first I thought all we needed was the arrival of Doctors such as The Anabolic Doc.  This seemed like the answer to me, and then I realized that we have to overcome years of neglect , and change the habits of generations of steroid users.  So Dr. O’Connor is part if the answer , the rest start with those who read this , to accept this as truth and to pass it on as the same.

At the end of the day , we only have one life, and we need to make the most out of this one life. So we need to enjoy each day and try to get as many days out of it as possible. Do yourself a favor and take care of your body like it is a temple, not just the exterior.

I was thinking today, after reading my article about sobriety and all the great responses I have gotten, that it is all about where your head is . I mean what is your mind state, people can achieve based on thoughts and mind clarity . If your dedicated and vigilant you can accomplish almost anything. I have stated this in many articles, especially when it comes to things such as  lifting , because mental focus is always the difference. Now I wonder what that means when your head is not where it is suppose to be. This is in combination with “Sober Juicers” , because it hits the same area..

In general ( though it applies to weightlifting ) ” where your head is ” is not the position of your head on the pillow, or the way you rest it on the head rest on the head rest in the car. It is the way you see things and how you react to it, take the example of  Sunday night’s football game: I am a huge Chicago Bears fan, and watching the Giants ( who definitely are not better ) destroy our offensive line , made me an asshole . I bitched at my lovely girlfriend, even though she was just being supportive of me.

All of the above lead me to believe that it is also where your head is before you start a cycle. This is setting the stage for the next 8-16 weeks, will you come out ripping and roaring or do you come out as a lamb . Can you control your temper or is your world a mess and will this hinder your gains.  It goes Diet, Exercise, Rest and then what steroids you use.  So the way you diet , exercise , and rest will be profoundly effected by where your head is.

What is the point? More then anything , before you start a cycle or just in general make sure you get your head right before starting anything big like steroids, because it may effect you way more then you know.

I want to say , before I continue , that Dr. Tom O’Connor is quite a character, his energy and personality is the main reason for his success.  He has such a passion for lifting and lifters , that it comes out in an almost child like excitement. I have to admit , speaking to him  almost made me feel like when I first starting helping people many years ago. Now on with the story of this man.

He said that in the beginning , he was not convinced of his own writing just yet , but the information he had was important and needed to get out. Now he has his own site , a place among the media of Muscle Development , one of the largest forums and magazines. That is no small accomplishment by itself, but add in a full time practice , and the fact that he is a real “Meathead” . ( meaning he is as powerful as any ) . He lifts regularly and if you look at his Facebook, he can put up some good weight , at 5’8 and 200lbs, he can curls the 85 pound dumbbells for reps. His bench press is over 400 lbs on the flat bench.  This guy makes me tired just writing about his over-achievements.

After a while I started to ask about how his practice , I was informed of many things I was unaware of , and some that I already knew.  He explained to me that he took his patients through Concierge Coverage, which is the coverage through a yearly retainer. This is because the status of Health Care is the prices keep going up but the amount going to the physicians keep going down. So you pay your yearly retainer , comparable to that of a monthly  fee for Medical Coverage and he is your Primary Care Physician. He told me that he has patients all over the country , he sets up all the tests and blood work needed and he gives you care from Connecticut.

Now some may ask why would you want a Doctor who isn’t local , and I say because the average Doctor doesn’t know shit about anabolic steroids or how they effect your body , or even how to treat any real negative side effects. So he orchestrates from his office and keeps you in good working shape .

The last part of the interview was just talking about general stuff like we were old friends. We spoke of Greg Valentino , and how his reputation doesn’t reflect the great man he is. Spoke of Anthony Roberts and how much he helped me get off the ground. We spoke of Llewelyn and how he is as smart as any as far as the science side of steroids. We just spoke and next thing you know a few hours had gone by.

After just one conversation , I learned a lot , got to know him well and came to respect the man.  I want to pass on how important it is to have a physician that can monitor your health , going untracked is like climbing a mountain without a harness and rope.

Sobriety is a thing of common knowledge now a days, it is basically ( not to trivialize ) but it is the act of getting clean and getting your life back together after a period of uncontrolled drug or alcohol use. It is on TV every other reality show has at least one drunk or junky. It takes a lot of strength , courage , and sacrifice to get clean . Now I don’t mean someone who occasionally uses and stops and tries to make it out that they are a hero. I mean , someone who was lost and could not overcome it , without a power great then themselves.  I have come to the conclusion that there is a progressing  movement of people in sobriety finding there way into the steroid forums , and into gyms all across the country. I come to this conclusion by socializing on several boards.

The movement seems only reasonable , to go from a life style that revolves around only getting high or drunk , neither of which have anything to do with health , how you look , or anything resembling that. Nope , you like like shit!!! Your in horrible shape , your hygiene is questionable at best.  So when you finally get clean , it is time to make a change , you do everything to live a better life, and after all the cob webs have cleared , getting in shape seems like a great idea , but it almost seems impossible after all the years of neglect.

First you hit the gym , and either lose a few pounds or put on a few pounds of muscle ,  the effects bring your spirit and moral up , or even give you a positive way to get your anger out. Now you have a healthy hobby that makes you feel good inside. This is a good thing at a time when good habits and good things are needed in your life. As I look over this movement you see more and more members are admitting that they are “Friends of Bill”. Like anything else , for every one person you have proclaiming they are , you have 4 or 5 who do not disclose for their own personal reasons.

As a man of Anabolic Steroids and a person with extensive personal experience of drug and alcohol abuse, I do have an up close perspective of this . I feel if it is done properly , under the care of a doctor, and the cycle planned under the care of  educated veterans , it seems like a win – win situation.  You gain well needed self-esteem , confidence , and get to repair to an outter exterior that is a work in progress on its best day. The idea of a hobby that serves the above stated purpose and also keeps a sick mind ( working on getting less sick ) busy when it is most needed.

With all the positives you can find , there is ALWAYS the flip side of the coin. The possibility of transferring addictions is always there, to go from one substance to another is something that engulfs many who attempt to get clean. The sure fire way to check this out , is are they able to follow the rule time on = time off, which is hard for any juicer, let alone a person with an addictive personality. If you can maintain this rule, while all others fail, it is a good sign. Next , you have the unresolved anger, most that do drugs , do so to not feel and to avoid underlying events or issues. Now as I have said Roid Rage is normally reflective of a persons anger, steroids do not cause angry people , it just takes an angry man and make them slightly easier to set off. So underlying issues can come to the surface . This should be a thought for anyone interested in joining this group.

In the end no one really listens if they think they know something already, this is how it is. I think this movement can be a good thing if the reasons and reasoning are right. Most are pillars of the forums and always are there to lend a helping hand . Their fellow AA and NA members may think this is a drug , but if it was legal they would not even take a second thought. Most are some of the sstrongest people you will ever meet and I don’t mean on the bench, they are Sober Juicers and our forum brothers.

With all the buzz going on about my earlier post of  Sciroxx vs Axio, I received a lot of emails from Supplement Companies that wanted to supply the protein and other needs, and also offer to sponsor this whole arrangement. I have received hundreds of emails from gentlemen willing to be in the study. Then I received a call from a Geneza Rep ( source) and he wanted in , but requested I don’t release his info. Then I got a request from www.world-pharma.org that they want to throw the “New British Dragon” in the ring.

The reasoning For all the interest is right now Sciroxx and Axio are the IT brand names of the UnderGround Lab scene. Geneza has always been seen as Axio’s Red Headed Step-Child, and wants to try to prove they are just as good. Now British Dragon wants to see if the new kid on the block can take out the street kings.

Overall the buzz is big , and I plan on keeping the updates to bi-weekly, and I have a plan to make sure the subjects keep everything consistent and on point. I am excited to see the results .

Now , for all interested to be subjects , please email me the following:

Name:

Age:

Weight:

Body Fat %:

Max Out In

Bench:

Shoulder Presses:

Squats:

DB Curl:

Weighted Dips:

Cycle History:

All Supplement Companies, please provide what your looking for as far as advertising, what supplements you can supply, and a banner.

Good Luck to all and I will let you know when it all starts, please send all inquiries to drs@steroidslive.com .

I had the honor of chatting with the Anabolic Doc, which I wanted to do since I frst read his column, and found out he was some what local. I had heard chatter of this man , who was said to be a good guy and a very good Doctor. The icing on the cake is the fact that he has a broad knowledge base of steroids. The idea that a Doctor , a real Doctor ( MD ) that actually knew something about Anabolic Steroids , was unbelievable to me. This is something I have dreamed of for a long time, especially one that is open about it , and incorporates it into his own Practice. This is the start , hopefully , of a movement, actually getting our brothers and sisters the proper and practical care they sometimes need. This could mean no more statements like ,” I am sorry but steroids are bad and unless you come off of them I will not be able to help you” ( a true quote from a Doctor my friend saw ). e Hopefully others follow suit.

So who is Dr. Tom O’Connor ? Is he some meathead who was lucky enough to make it through Med-School ? Nope, he is a very enthusiastic , very competent gentleman. with extraordinary genetics and a freakish build for a guy who works the hours he does. So I had a list of questions ready for him, and I proceeded to call him , with all intentions of asking these set question, like a typical interview, and almost 2 hours later , I did not ask a single question on my pad , yet I had more info then I could imagine. He started by giving a brief overview of his Practice, what he does. He is an Internist, who has many normal patients,  and the other half is HRT and care of steroid users, through what he calls Concierge Medical Care.. This is a new movement to counter poor care because Medical Insurance is slowly destroying the basis of medical care and cutting but coverage , while increasing rates.

So if you want to call him because you believe he will prescribe you large doses of Test, won’t happen. He only does legit HRT and cares for those who use recreational steroids, and some that use for a living. This means while he may seem contraversal to most , he stays within h the laws and his own oath..

He proceeded to explain how all this came to be, at least the writing side of it , which lead to his current popularity.  He bought a website for $3 , to post about his practice , and information like that. After a little while he was approached by Steve Blackman , who said if you really are a Doctor, a Powerlifter , and capable of all the things you state on your web site , then I will make you famous. So he started writing for Powerlifting USA, which he co-wrote at first , because he stated that he believes he is not an exception writer. After a little while he started to pilot solo, which was then followed by his appearances on MD.com , and lead to his current status.

I will continue with my interview of him tomorrow, thank you for reading and enjoy your day. Please feel free to become my friend on Facebook , I am under Thomas Stevens.

So I happen to have a friend who is an Axio Rep ( and he stays such no matter how much I bash them ) , and we came up with a great idea of a small controlled study putting Axio against Sciroxx. We are going to match up the subjects by weight , bf % , experience, etc… It will be blind so the participants will not know what brand they are taking, to make sure the results are pure.

The idea behind this is , I watch a lot of crap throwing by one of the sides, so with both a Sciroxx man and an Axio man involved , it will prove which brand has the superior quality.

Anyone interested in partaking in this study , and you live in the Tri-State area, please feel free to contact me.

After going to a local BB’er Competition  and watching the women compete at such a high level and even show definition that was comparable to the men ( just not the size ).  There I sat as several very ripped , very defined women crossed the stage and showed no disparity from the men that walked a half hour earlier. So the question I had at the end of the day was ” Why was the women’s prize so much less than the men’s. It was 50 % less, really? Did they work 50 % less or spend 50 % less time in the gym?

Some of my answers were sitting next to me in the form of a beautiful yet muscular lady sitting next to me. A former woman bodybuilder was sitting next to me, and I chatted with her for a while and then , with caution I explained who I am. She said she actually reads my blog and had quite a few questions for me.  So I passed on to her my lack of understanding to her, with a look of hatred , she went on a ten minute rant that could have lasted an hour longer if I had allowed it.

She said ” The men get prep areas , while the women get a hallway with only a sheet stopping the view from continuing down to those that walk by. The money , respect ,and endorsement deals are all less than those of men performers. The idea is that men bring in bigger crowds and money.

I look at it from a stand point of risks, women seem to take more to receive less. The list of side effects are much larger for a woman , which include overall manliness. Now while the lady next to me was a few years out from being on stage , you could still see a few attributes that remained. She was very pretty just the same , and though her physique was much firmer than mine, I still , if single , would try my hardest. I must say  this seems unjust and the powers that be must do something, or risk a future of generations of resentful women bb’ers .

I know my posts have been getting farther and farther apart,  this is attributed to my  crusade against scammers and helping those who ask. I have gotten so many requests , it almost wipes out all of my free time. By no means am I complaining , I am explaining . I have not forsaken all my readers, just the opposite, I am attempting to protect as many as possible.

I looked into all the Uncle Z claims, almost done with that, until then I would stay clear. I know he has served the community for many years, but safe than sorry.

Muscle Bear ran into a few issues but they have stated to contact them with the order info and they will fix it, just be patient. I know of quite a few that have been fixed already, if they haven’t responded , please contact me.

The new British Dragon is out, still haven’t tested it but will let you know as soon as I hear anything. The word is though, they are good but not as good as the old one.

So Sciroxx came to me about testing a new product and since they know I LOVE Primo , he wanted to come to me since I have a lot of experience with this compound. I liked the idea, but thought if it was such a great idea , why isn’t it more wide spread. At the same time I also know TPP is very effective , and yet not very wide spread.

With this I made it into a project, I took measurements and the weight of the guinea pig, myself. What I noticed first was the extra water leaving my body after a few days, next was a leaner look after only 10 days, especially after cardio. On top of the fact that my cardio has improved quite a bit, I mean  my stamina , everything.  The compound is almost perfect , it kicks in fast,  gets to work on lean mass, and gets the water out .  It’s only real flaw is , the compound is not designed for long cycles. My estimation is 6-10 weeks tops and the 10 week side is pushing it. The other issue is injections , its dosed at 50 mgs per ml so it almost has to be daily injections, and effective dosing is 400 -800 mgs a week.

My suggestion is if your in the market for somwthing great for leaning or just want to add lean mass to your build without fat or water retention, this is a must stack drug.

If you have any questions or comments about this compound or anything else, please feel free to contact me at drs@steroidslive.com
