Selective androgen receptor modulators, or SARMs for short, sound mythical. The ideal SARM has all the positive effects of anabolic steroids, while not having any of the downsides or side effects. In my second article for MESO-Rx I provide a primer on SARMs. …
Today the first article I've written for MESO-Rx got published. It covers the anabolic to androgenic ratio and why I think it's worthless. One part of that is because of the experiments that are conducted to arrive at these ratios for various anabolic steroids. These are riddled with flaws. The other part is the concept of an anabolic to androgenic ratio itself. It's impossible for a single ratio to capture the differential responses of various tissues to anabolic steroids or the complexity of the androgenic response within a specific tissue, to be of value. …
Recently, Victor Black made a post on Instagram touting that “DHT as shown here is a most capable Anabolic Agent” and purportedly refuting my claim that DHT's effect in muscle is dramatically diminished by its breakdown there. However, if anything, the study perfectly supports my position. …
Post-cycle therapy (PCT) is commonly employed by anabolic steroid users to speed up recovery of testosterone production after a cycle. A new study, called the HAARLEM study, suggests this practice might not work. …

Anabolic steroids (AAS) can (negatively) affect blood lipids. In turn, this might affect cardiovascular disease risk. This article will discuss the effect of AAS on LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, apolipoprotein B, apolipoprotein A1 and lipoprotein(a). …
