So, guys, Derek, moreplacemorenities.com.

Today we're going to be talking about do anabolic steroids still build muscle past week six?

So this is kind of like a magic number in the, you know, like bodybuilding, I don't know, pharmacology research space, I guess.

I don't know, whatever. We want to call that where we try to

speculate about what the best way to go about building muscle is and how to, you know,

not only do it smart from a risk context, but as well as maximize the time you are exposing

yourself to dangerous amounts of hormones. So, you know,

there's a theory that, uh, you know, like a longer, slower approach is better where you basically,

like it takes a long time to accrue a significant amount of muscle. So having a long, you know,

drawn out off season where you pack on like one pound of like quality weight every week or every two weeks

even.

You know, obviously that number is going to vary, but just like, you know, a ballpark is like

pack on just like a tiny bit of weight, a very slow progressive period of time versus

the guys who think you should like hit it hard, take advantage of the increased nitrogen

retention, protein accretion, all of the anabolic

processes that are brought on by exogenous antibiotics that seem to potentially plateau entirely

by like week six, seven-ish. So like I said, some people think that you need, you know, like 12, 16,

20 week off seasons to build

the max amount of muscle and it's all you know a dose dependent increase and androgen receptors

upregulate they don't down regulate when you use anabolic because all the studies show that

they upregulate and like this is there's so many like there's not so many theories there's only

really like a couple it's either
