It never ceases to amaze me how little your average doctor, or even specialists, know about steroids. And the general public know even less. There is also a great deal of confusion about where the line is drawn between prohormones and steroids. The truth is so simple its shocking and I’m more than happy to elucidate the issue.
Lets first define the term “Steroid”. Steroids are hormones made in your adrenal glands or your gonads from cholesterol. Steroids do not necessarily build muscle and are not necessarily performance enhancing. Birth control pills and some heart medications are steroids. Testosterone is the male sex hormone and is one of many steroids. for 60 years scientists have tried to separate the Anabolic or muscle growth effect from the Androgenic or masculizing effect. So a synthetic version of testosterone is an Anabolic Steroid (AS). Anabolic Steroids are what people think of when they hear the term “Performance enhancing drug” but there are many different classes of performance enhancing drugs that are non-steroidal, creatine is one example, caffeine another.
Prohormones are compounds either natural or synthetic that convert in your body into an active hormone. not all prohormones convert to steroids so not all prohormones are prosteroids. Of the ones that do convert to steroids and even better convert to anabolic steroids the ones which work best are the ones that convert to the same compounds that bodybuilders use for competitions. Testosterone is probably the best and thats because it is what your body is used to using. 4 - Andro converts to testosterone and the only thing better is 1 - Andro.
Using prohormones to get the same effects as injecting steroids has a few benefits: Its legal for one. You get immediate results and if you need to stop because of side effects, then the side effects cease immediately. Most important thing is prohormones are made in a lab and are FDA regulated for safety. Illigal injectables are made in someones basement or kitchen. is that something you want to inject in your body?

1-ANDRO AS GOOD AS TESTOSTERONE!
By Todd Lee M.D.
For half a century scientists have tried to find a way to divorce the muscle building or Anabolic effects of testosterone from the androgenic effects. This was the dawn of the Anbolic steroids.
Some believe Primo and EQ to be the closest things to a purely anabolic compund but no, Alas the 1 - Testosterone molecule is the best. But before now the only way to this end product was the 5-alpha reduction of the EQ steroid and there was a higher conversion to estrogen than 1-test.
In December, 2013 a new study was released indicating the true anabolic power of 1-Andro, a prohormone to 1-testosterone. In this study there were identical results to previous studies on testosterone enathate injections. I didn't believe it either but here is why: 20% of Testosterone is converted to DHT which doesn't build muscle another 20% is converted to estrogen which INHIBITS more testosterone production. so you have only 60% active and more isnt made. with 1 -testosterone, the final product of 1-andro, there is no conversions! Additionally its 2 times as potent as testosterone. so on a milligram for milligram basis it would be 3 times as strong after 40% of testosterone was lost to metabolites.
Here is the weirdest part: You ever heard that steroids cause psychiatric and behavioural problems? Well there was an extensive battery of tests done and test subjects had mood IMPROVEMENTS over the control group!

Sublingual Delivery
By Todd Lee M.D.
Sublingual delivery is the new way to get a prohormone or anything else into your bloodstream. It by passes your digestive systemand your liver to have the highest amount of active ingredient in your blood and then your muscles for growth.
When you swallow food it can sit in your stomach for hours, and hours, and hours. If take your medication the same way it can mix with your food. This may chemically alter it and can cause you to defecate the medication out. It doesnt matter how great a medicine is, if it doesn't get where it needs to go it doesn't work. With Sublingual delivery you solve this problem.
Sublingual means “under the tongue” so with sublingual delivery products special compounds are added to drive the medicine into your bloodstream through the big veins under your tongue.

Cardio : How To Do It Right!
By Todd Lee M.D.
The traditional method of doing cardio isn't effective. Want to improve cardiovascular health? Want to lose fat? Want to look and feel your best? Then standard cardio isn’t for you!
Traditional cardio like walking or spin class or group aerobics or zumba or jogging all suck in my humble opinion.
By doing continuous long duration cardio you train your body to be more efficient at spending energy on action, in other words you decrease your metabolism and sacrifice muscle to achieve a lighter body weight. Your body feels its part of its existence to plod away at aimless cardio so it wants to be able to do this safely and effectively. To achieve this goal it sacrifices expensive muscle.
Why is muscle expensive? It burns calories, even at rest. The more muscle you have the more fat you burn. The more fat you burn the leaner you get and the higher your metabolism gets, which results in burning more fat and getting leaner...ad infinitum. Muscle is the single most effective way to burn fat, not cardio. Since cardio directly destroys muscle if done for longer than 30 minutes then indirectly cardio makes you fatter, not leaner. Ever notice how unimpressive the people who only do cardio for exercise are? And that the older they are the less successful they are at achieving weight loss goals? Its because they are destroying their bodies with to much long duration cardio.
The Right Way Is HIIT
HIIT or High Intensity Interval Training alternates extremely hard work, with a rest period. The timing and effort are similar to lifting weights and mimics the hormone response from weight training. That means when done for less than 30 minutes you actuild BUILD muscle not BURN muscle with this form of cardio. That means you're burning fat while you perform HIIT cardio and after as your fat is oxidized to generate energy to repair and grow the muscle. The best time to do it is right before weights.
15 minutes or less is all you need. The best are running on the stairs for 30 seconds and walking on the stairs for 60 seconds as one interval, and repeating that 6-10 times. Or sprinting on a treadmill on an incline for 30 and walking for 60.

Trenbolone
By Todd Lee M.D.
Tren is the T-rex of steroids. Nothing is as worshiped and feared like the almighty Tren. Its true name is Trenbolone and it is a modified nandrolone. Unlike Deca It is extremely androgenic, and some consider it a Selective Androgen Receptor Modulator (SARM).
Using Tren is turning to the dark side. There is no other steroid as toxic as Tren. There is no human grade Tren, It is made in peoples kitchens all across the world by dissolving cattle implant pellets. Trenbolone is used to bulk up cows and bulls before the slaughter so there is more meat yielded. Obviously the health of the steer is irrelevant. This do it yourself chemists dissolve the pellets in chemicals then bottle it for human injections. The chemicals are toxic to your kidney. As it is extremely androgenic it causes women who take it to masculinize. Deepening voice, clitoral enlargement, facial hair growth to name a few. Insomnia, Anxiety and Aggression, is common with androgens, but Tren is an animal all its own. Psychotic symptoms are common, like paranoid schizophrenia and homicidal ideation. The urban legend of “Roid Rage” started with Tren. Its likely to cause men to either lose hair, gain acne, or both. This depends on your particular genes, but most men get some of one or both.
Why on earth would anyone use this? It is immensely powerful. Tren is steroids on steroids. nothing and I mean nothing gets results like Tren. It Binds very strongly to the androgen receptor bumping off lesser anabolic steroids and hormones. Its 5 times as potent as testosterone. It has special functions to increase IGF-1 utilization and satellite cell migration, accelerating muscle growth in an alarming fashion. It speeds metabolism, and burns fat directly. It inhibits aromatase which stops estrogen production and thus decreases fat accumulation. it blocks the cortisol receptor to stop muscle from being broken down. Tren increases red blood cell production and speeds healing time. It has the special ability to make more of what you eat turn to muscle, and less turn to fat.
