So just wonders what you think? I think it look un-natural and Ridiculos. But why is it legal and what is the actual purpose of it ? :S

SEO's are used by most pros. But like everything in life the only stories you ever hear are people misusing it.

The oils expand each muscle cell in the site they are injected.

Most common areas enhanced are bi's, tri's, calves and rear delts. Although they can and are used in most muscles. Been known for pros to even out symmetry with it etc.

You have to be good with needles though. If you were use them on your arms for instance, you need to injected each muscle head once a day for a month then 'top up' there after. So thats 2 shots for each bicep and 3 for each tricep. So 10 IM shots per day.

Its been known for people to gain 3" on their arms in that month, then when swelling subsides it drops to around 2".

Its taken me the last 2 years to do the same, so its easy to see why people put themselves through the discomfort

Synthol?

[JamesR]

Every picture I have seen of people using it they never have any sort of definition, always just looks bloated / fat and as if the muscle is really soft.

Is this just mis-use? Or will it subside like you say and you can get some definition back?

[OMGASAXO]

Some of them seem to inject into their biceps so they've got massive swollen biceps then down to little skinny wrists doesn't look rite lol

[frenchcarparts]

Anything you inject is cheating in my book! lol

[McGuire86]

Was Arnold a cheat then ?

Some people inject B vitamins are they cheating?

[frenchcarparts]

Yes, and yes! haha ... You know what I mean :)

[cyne]

I'd have thought it's just how it goes if you use it to look big, because it's just oil or something, so you wont get that veiny solid look, I'd imagine they would just look like they are filled with fluid, because they probably are... I'd imagine if you use it in small amounts to achieve that symmetrical look as Dusher was saying, then you probably wont notice, but if you use it to make yourself look big then essentially I guess you are just "inflating" your muscle so it's going to end up like a balloon? That's only what I'd guess though, haven't read anything about it as it doesn't interest me.

[matt_vtr_15a]

Some people go over the top and look like fucking idiots...

I imagine if used properly can be extremely effective, but some people must pump gallons into their bi's & tri's and they just look like they have water balloons in their arms...

[JamesR]

Yes, and yes! haha ... You know what I mean :)

So If I take B vitamins orally I'm not cheating, but the second I inject the exact same thing I'm "Cheating"?

Cheating at what exactly? I dont get how using AAS or anything injectable is "cheating" not as if there are rules to lifting weights?

It's like me saying "Anyone who puts throttle bodies on their car is cheating"

Cheating at what? (for the record I've never injected anything into myself lol)

[McGuire86]

Yes, and yes! haha ... You know what I mean :)

Please elaborate. If you injected would you consider yourself as a cheat ?

Get a flat look yes. Erinie taylor was well known for it. Arms were ridiculous.

Jay cutler almost dropped out of an Olympia because of a bad synthol injection to his left arm. Loads on it on the internet. Im sure most of the pros use it. Its that competitive I cant see why, anything to get ahead.

[Giraffe]

I take it Synthol is banned from natural comps? Wonder who the biggest natural bodybuilder/strongman is on the planet... Jeff Willet? If he is natural...

[frenchcarparts]

If I injected any form of "performance enhancer" be it for actual performance or appearance gains, just cheating in my opinion ? :fcuk:

I think its more that anything injected usually brings with it this assumption that it is usually bad for you unless of course it is for a medical condition.

I reckon it's 95% jealousy... On the whole, people who are on gear are generally bigger, stronger and better looking (aesthetically, body wise) than those who choose to remain natural and I reckon this prompts the nats to almost justify why they don't look as good/lift as much by branding the other a cheater... Similarly, if someone on gear was to look down their nose at a nat, then yeah, I can see why someone who take the "cheater" route.

I just reckon each to their own.

Indeed, I'm a scrawny git atm and I would not consider taking anything that you cannot buy off the shelf at my local supplement store. I for one though am not jealous of anyone that uses "gear" to look bigger as realistically anyone can do that.

That's the thing though, they can't. Even taking gear requires you to work hard and eat right... You may not be jealous, but I take it you don't go round slating people who use roids either?

I don't think I know of someone who takes them tbh but I suppose I would say I don't approve of it and wouldn't personally do it, what other people choose to do is their business I guess.

AGREED...

There are a lot of lads my age currently on a range of steroids...


My best mate, has packed on a lot of size over a few weeks as he has trained harder than ever and stuck to a proper diet...

Some of the other lads look no different, took steroids and gone in half arsed and have had no noticeable gains whatsoever...

Some people may say it's cheating, but you need to have the dedication to make performance enhancing drugs work in your favor.

[JamesR]

If you take 2 people:

Person 1 is natural, eats right, trains right, right supplements, good amount of rest, no ale or smoking etc

Person 2 is on AAS, eats pretty poorly, trains a lot but not with a specific program, takes a load of shakes, drinks most weekends and smokes


The person on AAS will still make the better gains, it does make it easier obviously.

Person 3, cycles steroids properly, 100% dedication to diet and training. Eats person 1 and 2 alive.

Yepp :)

Just pointing out though, I know people who have the worst diet imaginable, heavy drinkers, smokers, don't have any organisation to training but take a crap load of AAS and make better gains than a natty who is dedicated.

Of course they lose it when they come off but they aren't bothered, they just keep taking them destroying themselves.

Couldn't agree more.
