Hey All,
I am a lurker here, absorbing info like a sponge, but I wanted to get your take on some somewhat counter-intuitive advice I got from my chiropractor (who apparently doubles as an athletic consultant, having his own gym in his complex, etc). He does have a background in steroid usage himself, though I am not sure to what extent he used or what compounds.
Firstly, he suggested to me that injectables pose the greatest danger to one's health due to the solution the compound is suspended in and the fact that they must pass through the heart, causing untold health complications. This doesn't make sense to me at all, as injections are done intra-muscularly.
Secondly, he said one should only consider using orals, that the idea that they are hard on your liver is greatly overblown, and that you bear less health risks by going oral only, seeing as you aren't injecting . He said he had great experiences with dianobol or winstrol only cycles with no adverse effects.
Lastly, he said prime usage age to see maximal effects is between the ages of 21-25, and anything after that would produce diminishing returns.
All of these things seem to go against popular belief among the bodybuilding community. Is this doctor just crazy and ill-educated about steroids and anabolic compounds, or does any of this make sense?
