I swear

Tell me about it. I played a softball doubleheader last night and I can barely walk today.
 
dude, so funny you say that, i just had to buy some shit for my joints, and im on EQ! the heavier i go, i REALLY feel it......

What did you get for your joints?

well im broke so i couldnt get the msm/gloucosamine combo, but i got a ton of triple strength fish oil. GNC makes this shit called tri-flex and sport tri-flex. They are suppose to be really fast acting (like 1 week) , but of course, more expensive
 
Other than the occasional muscle strain, I really have no joint pains. I guess I'm fortunate as I've been brutaly punishing my body since 12. I've always taken stuff for my joints due to my tendon issues. Hopefully it doesn't change, but I'm 30. When I start getting any joint pain from and exercise (skullcrushers) I just stop doing them for a while.
 
dude quit doing those things, all they do is tear up your joints

skullcrushers, hack squats, and upright rows do nothing but tear up the joints forget them

your body does not have a mechanism to absorb exogenous glucosamine and chondroitin. Trust me....this is true; it is a scam that they try to get people to buy the stuff. The only way you are really going to alleviate symptoms is to utilize an AAS that increases collagen synthesis in a positive manner, without decreasing the quality of the collagen. Moderate doses of test do this, but most doses we use are actually detrimental to collagen. Deca and EQ in moderate doses are very beneficial for collagen though. Here is a reference that summed up the medical journal:

While injecting test increases protein synthesis by roughly 50 times, depending on dose and time, most bodybuilders forget that it will reduce collagen synthesis by more than 50% -- more like 80%, giving you the collagen synthesis rate of a senior citizen. Since collagen makes up tendons, bros are very prone to injury if they continue to lift very heavy, unless they cycle off T and let their collagen synthesis get back to normal. It's like having the skeletal muscle of a gorilla with the tendons of a very old man.

Winstrol increases collagen synthesis. It will give you bigger tendons. However, your body compensates for this by making them more brittle, weaker, and more prone to injury. I can't tell you how many bros work out anaerobically and become injured while on winstrol. Guys who lift in the 1-5 rep range while on winstrol, to baseball players who sprint all out from a stationary position -- winstrol should be the LAST drug they choose. Most of them like winstrol because they don't get the weight gain from it but it is very detrimental to bros who train for any sport anaerobically. Tendons tear easily on it.

Also, the drugs I mention increase collagen synthesis while also increasing collagen cross-linking integrity, making for a much stronger tendon.

Winstrol, on the other hand, will dramatically increase collagen syn, but ironically it decreases collagen cross-linking integrity, thus making a much weaker tendon.

You can plan a cycle of AAS which will increase collagen synthesis and skeletal muscle growth at the same time. The key is the drug(s) you choose.

Deca, Equipoise, Anavar, and Primobolan will ALL increase skeletal muscle while at the same time dramatically increase collagen syn and bone mass and density, leaving you with a substantially reduced chance of becoming injured than if you choose to use AAS like sus, cyp, or enth.

While testosterone will increase bone mass and density, even at supra-physiological levels, the result is weaker tendons due to inhibition of collagen syn.

To plan a cycle where the goal is to increase skeletal muscle mass/strength while at the same time increase joint/tendon/ligament strength, enough to keep up with the dramatic increase in skeletal muscle, you must choose drugs like Eq, Deca, Anavar, or Primo as the base of your cycle. Testosterone and its esters can be added to your cycle to keep levels within a 'normal' physiological range (ie, 100-200 mg/wk) but must not go above this. Since drugs like eq, deca, anavar and primo will reduce endogenous, natural levels of test, these levels may be maintained with exogenous test in the 100-200 mg/wk range. Test at this dose will not inhibit collagen syn, but paradoxically, will help increase it. It is when exogenous testosterone is used > 200 mg/wk that collagen syn is inhibited.

Deca @ 3 mg/kg a week(about 270 mg/wk for a 200 lb male) will increase procollagen III levels by 270% by week 2. Procollagen III is a primary indicator used to determine the rate of collagen syn. As you can see, deca is a very good drug at giving you everything you want -- an increase in collagen syn, an increase in skeletal muscle, and increases in bone mass and density. The one thing it does not give you is wood.

Primobolan, @ 5 mg/kg, will increase collagen synthesis by roughly 180% -- less than deca and equipoise but still substantial.

Equipoise @ 3 mg/kg will increase procollagen III by approximately 340% -- slightly better than deca.

Oxandrolone has over a hundred studies documenting its effectiveness at treating patients needing rapid increases in collagen syn to enhance healing.

These drugs have longer half-lives than most other AAS, so this should be considered when timing your post cycle Clomid use. Here they are:

Deca: 15 days Equipoise: 14 days Primobolan: 10.5 days

Anavar has a half-life of only 8 hours so it should not pose a problem.

GH is probably the most remarkable drug at increasing collagen synthesis. It increases collagen syn in a dose dependant manner -- the more you use, the more you will increase collagen syn. It has also demonstrated this ability in short and long term studies. From what I've read, hGH at 6 iu/day increased the collagen deposition rate by around 250% in damaged collagen structures. This result indicates that the increased biomechanical strength of wounds to collagen structures treated with biosynthetic human growth hormone was produced by an increased deposition of collagen in the collagen structures.

Eq, primo, anavar, and deca are all good -- they increase several biomakers of collagen syn -- ie, type III, II, I, procollagen markers. GH just seems to do so most dramatically.

Use of any of these drugs @ supra-physiological levels with a maintenance dose of test will increase collagen syn while at the same time increase skeletal muscle mass. Skeletal muscle mass gains will not be as dramatic as with large testosterone doses but you have to weigh the risk/reward basis for yourself.

I swear the older I get the more I hurt and Im just 34. Oh well just up the dose of deca I guess.

I hear that man, im 31 and until i started deca 4 weeks ago i was hurting soooo much ... Growing old does suck.

I dont take any thing for joints though apart from tumeric powder that is an anti inflamatory

im using EQ now for 7 weeks now, 250eod. Im waiting for some GH. Maybe i'll up the EQ......
 
Just saw this. It doesn't get any better. I sure wish I was 30 again. Shaptown has some extremely valuable information there.
