  • On this week’s episode of the Escape Your Limits Podcast, our guest was the science editor of Muscle and Fitness magazine, an editor-at-large for Flex magazine, and a regular contributor to Ironman magazine for 28 years. His articles were the only articles read in bodybuilding magazines by 3-time Mr. Olympia champion, Frank Zane. He is the creator of Applied Metabolics, an in-depth newsletter about food supplements; exercise science; steroids, and much more.
    Besides his writing, he has been a nutrition consultant for numerous elite, world-class athletes such as Floyd Mayweather Jr, Oscar de La Hoya, and Vassiliy Jirov. He was also a competitive bodybuilder himself and trained alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger at the original Gold’s gym in Venice, California in the 70s.
    Today, he spills nothing but the truth about:
    • The biggest mistakes most bodybuilders make
    • The myths, truths, pros, and cons of steroids
    • And how a lot of safe supplements can have deathly effects

    I always hear this same story: "When you are 30 your testosterone starts to get lower and it really starts to make a difference when you're 40". I've gotten my heaviest lifts in my forties and am still getting better. I've never been using any drugs but I let my body recover from lifting sessions as long as I feel my body requires. Sometimes I have only 2 or 3 heavy sessions per month but I keep getting stronger

      I also 38 natty but I coulnt build more muscles for some reason, I had a huge set back after covid lockdowns, lost most my gains, and when I came back to train, I had like 8-9 days recovery time for each muscle group. Got my T tested, was around 400, so I started supplementing with creatine, ashwagandha, macca, protein and collagen, and finally I started building muscle again and even breaking records from pre lockdowns.

    I am 39 and was on TRT for 14 months. But I decided to stop after the clinic I was using raised their rates by four times. Also, I am diagnosed with major depression. Instead of treating a symptom, I decided to treat the sickness.
    I had given up booze months before, which was a contributing factor. I reduced chronic stress, focused on sleep, and started breath work, supplemented with herbs like Tongkat Ali, Gotu Kola, and Natabolic by Chemix.
    I am more than a month out from my last injection and feel better than when I was on the test. My workouts are better, and my mood, focus, and sex drive are all great.
    I am not a doctor, and it may still be early, but my guess is by focusing on every aspect and factor of my condition, I am improving. Instead of focusing on a symptom.

    I keep seeing these comments online about guys testing their testosterone levels. What's the point if nothing or very little has changed from your 20s and 30s? The only real differences I've noticed is that it takes a bit longer to build muscle and burn fat. I also get tired more during the day but that's about it and that's not enough to stop me. Still have rapid facial hair growth, deep voice, intense sex drive, great sexual function and near equal or slightly better strength than I had when I was younger. Eat clean, drink mostly water and stay active. 💪💪

    I have used Testosterone over the past 10 years. In the last 2 years I have not used any. Feeling flat and low did bloods and was diagnosed with secondary hypogonadism. The problem is when I started with test enanthate 250mg once a month I experienced severe bloating and a very uncomfortable gut. As soon as I'm done eating I would get very uncomfortable and need ed to use the loo. Moved over to test cypionate, 50mg once a week. Same result. It's almost as though I can't tolerate it internally. I have chatted to my endocrinologist and few other well versed people however nobody seems to understand why or how this happens. Any feedback would be highly appreciated.....🙏

      This ain't right, you've used test on and off for the past 10 years and are taking 250mg enthanate once a month and was on 50mg of cyp a week. Problem is you need to get proper trt done and you'll probably be on something like 120mg a week. The 1st month of using test there is usually water retention and sometimes inflammation, you could also have a haitial/hiatus hernia

      Does taking testosterone reduce natural production?

      When a man takes synthetic testosterone, the brain detects the excess and slows or stops production of LH and FSH. That means the body quits producing intratesticular (natural) testosterone, and consequently, production of sperm due to the suppression of LH and FSH. This results in reduced fertility.Jan 6, 2021

I don't think the test had anything to do with it. Try eliminating all vegetable and seed oils. Use only avocado oils to cook with and olive oil only without being heated. Try carnivore for 90 days. Reduce or eliminate dairy.

    ErgoPharm 1-Ad WAS THE BEST... I had every intention of buying a case of it before the ban went into effect but had family tragedy right before totally slipped my mind to stock up I wish so much I could get that stuff again
    Also IMO and experience young guys taking this stuff Im not surprised if "noticed no real gains/effects" youre young body is doing its thing and youre more than likely shutting it down prematurely!! I think my taking all these different boosters and gainers when I was young a VERY long time ago is the cause of my problems now. I think they shut my system off that by the time I was in my 30's I felt like I was 50 suffering from all kinds of injuries and then when I hit 40 man they werent kidding it just drops!!
    I remember when I was abt 17 taking some test booster or something and had great gains. Told a fitness guy I knew with a radio show abt it he smiled, "worked good? They were putting Test in it!"

    I had amazing results using fadogia and tongkat ali. It's very natural. To be honest, my results scare the shit out of me. I'll be 47 years old this year. The first thing I noticed was my ballz started getting bigger, and so did my loads. I was horny as hell. Then I noticed my gym gains were noticeably improved. I cycle 4 weeks on, 1-2 weeks off. I've been using it for 3 months now, but I noticed a difference after just 3 days of usage. I just hope it doesn't get shat on by the FDA.

    I'm glad I watched all the way through, as they talked about TRT. I will be 60 this year and have been looking into TRT, and I have been told if you follow a doctor's advice and do blood work, it is a great idea for men over 50. One thing I have not heard from any of the people / companies promoting TRT is the fact you will shut your body's production of testosterone down, and you will need TRT for the rest of your life.

You won’t notice if you are eating at maintenance but I have a lot to say about these. Along with BPC 157. A game changer for tendon issues and helps with sleep. A supplement is just that. A supplement. No replacement for bad diet and lack of sleep. But I do agree with you for the most part but I would sub out the whey protein for steaks. Shakes can’t match the real food unless you travel a lot with no choice.

    *I just finished a 3 month cycle of Fadogia, Tongkat Ali with Aronia berries and other forms of the highest antioxidants and micronutrients for protection.* The natural test boosters have given me phenomenal gains and endurance with ZERO SIDE EFFECTS! Granted that I never did steroids or any of that other toxic stuff that ruins my liver, kidneys, and gonades. So, in other words, my testosterone didn't bottom out, I'm still running strong doing another herbal cycle! With the basic understanding of biochemistry and biology, from college courses, I know how to anecdotally dosage, diet, and add additional micronutrients to counteract any potential side effects.
    In addition, I also know that herbs take the natural pathways of the body's hormonal system while drugs (synthetic t-boosters, sarms, or steroids, etc), especially steroids bypass certain pathways. Quick note, when you take things that bypass the body's natural pathways, it results in side effects. Not to say that herbal supplements don't, but it truly depends on one's understanding of how to eat and take the right antioxidant to block and protect oneself against any potential harm. Moreover, when it comes to building muscle and health, it's best to think long term and not short-term. Those who are in the rush to gain massive muscles often risk their health in the process. Like a major side effect of steroids is impotence and organ damage or death. I recommend training for health and longevity - *life is a marathon and not a sprint!*
