I don’t condone taking anabolic steroids and no longer am on anything, but have you guys enjoyed these videos and want me to keep them coming?

[@yzz__]

loving the vids pete, keep them coming bro

[@PeteRubish]

@@yzz__ absolutely buddy, will do!

[@blazedones]

As someone who wonders a lot about anabolics. Thanks for the info, coming from those who used it, and is quite honest about how it affected you personally; if I ever do want to try or coach those on this, or even just send people to watch these vids for their personal knowledge these vids are golden. Helps knowing what could happen, side effects, etc. Also, the rankings you are doing is great.

[@rugdoc97]

Natties care to much about how others look around them and what they take yet if they took something they wouldnt get anywhere without proper training food and genetics lol gear doesnt do everything so idk why people ask what others do with their body. And when they are honest you appreciate it? Who the fuck cares 😂

​@@PeteRubishhi, What are you thing about that 10 mg Dbol in the morning and 10 mg Dbol afternoon+250 mg Sustanon weekly?

[@grandinquizitor7412]

When I was younger I took Test Prop, DBol, and Clomid for 12 weeks back in 2012. I had no negative effects (probably because it was my very first time and first cycle so I responded well to it). My gains in strength and size were similar. I went from 200lb to 245lb. I had a clean diet and did a lot of cardio so I didn't experience the moon face puffiness. Once I finished my cycle in 2012 I never did gear ever again.

[@DanglyLingham]

Did you keep any of the gains?

[@gotchu99]

of course he didn't@@DanglyLingham

[@MrJudo2go]

Thanks Pete, really enjoyed your videos. I'm from a time when you could get a doctor to write a script for dianabol and primo. I use to workout at the old Duncan YMCA in the early 70's and I took dianabol several times in the past. Many of the guys working out took it because Sergio Oliva was taking it. I think it's affect differs from person to person, but some things are the same. I definitely increased in body mass and overall strength. It would raise blood pressure for sure. On a hot humid day and a hard workout you could easily get a nose bleed and get a headache. Some guys got what we called, The Dropsie, which was holding water in lower extremities. I never did the Prime, but the pharmaceutical dianabol was everything people said it was. Good and possibly bad also. Thanks again and keep doing what you do. 👍

[@xxxthetruthxxx4765]

great and honest video. I used Dbol once during summer 2020. Didn´t have any side effects at first, but great strength and size gains while getting leaner. was very happy with the results. however, when I went hiking during a hot summer day, got sweaty and all that I noticed that acne was flairing up on my chest, shoulders and back. it came pretty much out of nowhere and was like triggered from the shirt and backpack rubbing on my sweaty body. i got that under control quickly, thankfully, but ever since then, i am very reluctant when it comes to Dbol.

[@glenanderson6164]

Finding this series really interesting, as someone who is an up and comping strongman, steroids is always something on the periphery of my mind. So super helpful to have videos like this weighing out honest viewpoints on pros and cons etc. to help me figure out what I may or may not do one day

[@yasa4091]

[@seanjiverage9443]

Interesting to see old videos and photos of you, also great info

[@ARMWRESTLINGCYCLINGFRANCE]

The only thing I'd argue against this is run a longer zone 2 cardio. If you're worried about catabolism, just eat enough and make sure your diet is proper. Zone 2 is better for long term health and endurance in the gym. As far as acne is concerned....I always fought cystic acne since I was 12. I have to run low dose Accutane with my TRT at 37 years old. Imagine how bad it was 25 when I ran 500 test, 400 deca and 100mg/anadrol when I was a competitive arm wrestler. Brutal. Keep this series going Pete. We all appreciate the honesty.

[@patrickwendling6759]

Nice video Pete, keep em coming!

[@deanrichard5875]

Nice one Pete. I've alternated dbol so many ways it's unreal .. Incredible strength gains with a dose you probably wouldn't realise. Definitely creep up using it. My common experience taking 50/60 pre workout out or few hours before I got two weeks mad before I freeze on anything other than water gains . Now splitting them up 12hrs or there abouts same does completely different duration range and strength changes. My forearms are ridiculous and even lower back pumps to the point of being iMobile lol

ive just started with D bol yesterday and ive already put on 1,2 kg of water. I already do 2,5kg to 5kg more on every lift. Wish me the best. Also, i didnt even look for this, it got recommended. Subbed. Very good informative video!

[@z.l.b.s2288]

I was thinking about running a dbol cycle, are you using a test base with it like enclo , clomid etc ?

[@leichtsinnigaberklug]

@@z.l.b.s2288 dont use clomid except for in a PCT scheme. I use a basically old school cycle i shouldnt recommend, but it fulfills my needs and works good for me. Most people turn into Waterballs doing this cycle. Im running 375mg of Test E, 125mg of Nandrolone and 30 mg of Dbol everyday. ive already put on about 7 to 8 kilograms, i feel great. Ive lost muscle definition but im feeling hard as fuck. Im also very strong by now. I lift way more than two weeks ago. its crazy

[@Flabango]

Dude I love these videos diving into these compounds and their effects. Not interested in taking them I just love learning about it

[@squatbenchdeadl]

I personally never had issue with acne on dbol or test e. I only had acne on my back and shoulders while on mast e and switching to primo fixed this. Also mast didnt lower my e2 at all while primo did so it was better choice overall

My liver enzymes where 462 way back about 3 years ago from running LGD 4033. At least that and a high sugar diet I believe. I stopped the LGD cleaned the deit up and did 3, 18 hour fasts a week Monday, Wednesday and Friday. For 3 weeks and got retested. I lost almost 18 pounds in those 3 weeks. Now that was my experience and just wanted to mention that liver enzymes can get that high.

Strength and size was amazing , I benched 660lb . iPhone a friend who is a pro :I told him I wasn’t carrying any water : 128.5 with abs & great condition - he said don’t believe the internet and rumours : if you have good genetics it work’s fantastic he said . Also they ; the Pros take 4 x50mg the day of competition!!! Blood pressure went through the roof - I felt like my head was going to explode. Best oral in my opinion.

[@PowerShack_MisFitness]

Yo since elevated blood pressure technically increases strength & power as you say, wouldn't using roughly 5-10mg of Cialis preworkout actually hinder your strength potential? I know cialis is great for the "pump" & blood flow during bodybuilding style high rep workouts, but wouldn't this mean that using it pre workout on your heavy days, would make it counter-productive to hitting big lifts and to some degree just make you feel a bit weaker ? I was thinking increased blood flow would actually be beneficial to staying warm as you ramp up in weight, potentially helping with strength to some slight degree as long as you don't lower your BP very much? Opinions or experiences anyone?

[@Jolo94]

have you had experience with the combination of melanotan and accutane? being on accutane and going out in the hot sun seems to cause phototoxicity/sensitivity. Have you noticed Melanotan helping with that?

[@pupper5580]

These videos are fascinating (I never want to use PEDs). Coconut oil is said to heal scars (I've heard anecdotal stories of people healing their scars using coconut oil), and it's a great cosmetic product. If you want a really good looking skin for your face, put coconut oil on your face before going to bed, put a towel under your head (so you don't mess everything with coconut oil) and in the morning you're going to look great (at least that's how it is for me) - girls are going to be checking you out a lot. Important note: make sure you use real coconut oil - there's a lot of fake products in the stores. So buy something like natural organic coconut oil or whatever. If you're getting super bad results using the coconut oil, it might be fake coconut oil (Once I bought cheap coconut oil and put it on my skin and my skin looked like the skin of a zombie the next day, it was horrible and I got rid of the product after using it only once). If you think your coconut oil is good but you're getting bad results, then I'm full of crap with what I'm saying. Also there's something called "coconut fat" or whatever, don't use that, make sure you're using coconut oil.

I know I liked the dbol in the thumbnail great stuff. A good rule of thumb is to have at least 10 years natural training before you start 💩. Maximize your natural ability then when you go as far as can start the hi fuel stuff. That was how everyone used to do things, way too many teens on stuff now.

Can we discuss possible side effects ? I was diagnosed with Diverticulitis and it just so happened that this happened after about 3 light cycles of DBall within a year, I went 8 weeks, 9 weeks and 4 weeks but never over 30 mg a day. After my diverticulitis was healed I ended up with diverticulosis but I want to go back on DBall again if I can but want to do just 15mg a day this time for just 6 weeks. I would really want to hear true possible side effects from taking steroids. I do want to make clear that I took liv52 the whole time on all cycles to protect my liver and this absolutely worked because my blood work even showed when I was in hospital while still on DBall that liver enzymes were normal and blood pressure normal and kidneys were fine so.
