Does Gear...

[Dale Mabry]

impart any effects on the CNS? From what I have read, it seems as though gear works right at the muscle only. Is this true or does someone have anything refuting this notion.

 

[ZECH]

Basically gear increases nitrogen retention, thus enabling more muscle growth. A side effect of overtraining is a taxed CNS. When your on gear you work out harder and more. So in a round about way, I would say yes it does contribute some effect. But gear also helps you recoup faster!

 

[Dale Mabry]

So there is a chemical effect?

 

[Mudge]

I recoup like a mofo other than my tendons in the bicep area. Certain steroids are attributed with causing a backlash of cortisol when you come off, FWIW.

As for the tendon issue, many steroids degrade tendon quality or slow down the tendon building process, I have posted some garbage on this if you'd like me to link you. I dont know if you are hurting, if not then you are probably free to ignore the issue somewhat.

It's normal....AAS stimulate the Central Nervous System.

See if you can get a script for Ativan...it's much milder than Valium and such, and it's not addictive. It won't make you feel really woozy...but it will tone down CNS and allow you to feel 'normal' again.

So then they don't help the CNS, which is kinda what I thought. I literally collapsed after my last workout on M1T and haven't been back to the gym since then, which was last Friday. I think I am going to go in and do some low volume stuff tonight or tomorrow.

Collapsed in terms of tiredness or pain? Pain I can relate to, for being tired I can't really.

I'm not really finding anything that talks about gear and CNS.

Central nervous system depressants:
??? alcohol (in beer, wine, liquor)
??? barbiturates (Seconal [???reds,??? ???red devils???], Nembutal [???yellows,??? ???yellow jackets???], Tuinal [???rainbows???], Amytal [???blues,??? ???blue heaven???], Phenobarbital)
??? nonbarbiturate sedative-hypnotics (Doriden [???goofballs???], Quaalude [???ludes???], Miltown, Equinil)
??? benzodiazepines (Valium, Librium, Dalmane, Halcion, Xanax, Ativan)
??? over-the-counter medications (Nytol, Sominex)


Central nervous system stimulants:
??? cocaine (???coke,??? ???blow,??? ???toot,??? ???snow???)
??? smokeable forms of cocaine (???crack,??? ???rock,??? ???base???)
??? amphetamines (Benzedrine [???crosstops,??? ???black beauties???], Methedrine [???crank,??? ???meth,??? ???crystal???], Dexedrine)
??? nonamphetamine stimulants (Ritalin, Cylert, Preludin)
??? caffeine (in coffees, teas, colas, chocolate, No Doz, Alert, Vivarin)
??? phenylpropanolamine (in Dexatrim)
??? nicotine (in tobacco)

I collapsed as a result of being tired. This is what I am getting at. Lets say you do gear and it only imparts effects at the muscular level, no help to the CNS. So gear will allow your muscles to work at a higher volume, but not help your CNS. I would imagine that this would require a decent break immediately after a cycle.

I keep hearing that about M1T but not even anadrol effects me like that, I leave the gym on my own two feet without problems. Leg day is rough, but with ~4 minute rest period on the hack squats I do just fine.

I was fine until the last day, I could hardly walk home. I worked out 4 days a week on a 3 days split so 2 bodyparts got hit twice a week. I hit the couch when I got home and didn't get up for 30 minutes. Luckily I had already ingested my shake on the way home.

With all the people with problems sleeping (including me) I think I need some

What I am HATING with a f#cking passion right now is accutane, it is KILLING my f#cking joints. I believe I am going to run some deca because I NEED it badly, I'm taking a few days off.

I know the DHT in gear such as Sten, imparts a big effect on CNS.
