    Blood Sweat & Gear 366 Every Steroid Ranked by Side Effects: Three Coaches Debate ⭐️

    Which steroids have the worst side effects? On Blood Sweat & Gear, coaches Skip Hill, Andrew Berry, and Scott McNally each share their own steroid side-effect tier list, comparing rankings and debating their biggest disagreements. Visit https://thinkbigbodybuilding.com to check out our peptide and research affiliate links and available discount codes. We rank testosterone, nandrolone, Equipoise, Masteron, Primobolan, trenbolone, DHB, Anavar, Winstrol, Anadrol, Superdrol, and Halotestin by side effects rather than muscle-building potential. The discussion draws on our coaching experience and personal perspectives, with individual response, dose, and duration all affecting the picture. Then we tackle listener questions about insulin and early morning workouts, training intensity, breathing during squats, testosterone esters, controlling appetite on a bulk, and switching compounds during a cycle. We also discuss returning to training after surgery and managing bodybuilding alongside a physical job after 40.

    Drugs n Stuff 331 : Anavar in 2026: Have Our Opinions Changed? + Steroid Q&A

    Anavar in 2026: muscle growth, side effects, and what’s changed in our experience. Dave Crosland and Scott McNally revisit oxandrolone with an updated profile on DNS, discussing dosing perspectives, common bodybuilding uses, considerations for women, diminishing returns, and availability. RESEARCH & PEPTIDE AFFILIATES Find my current research and pep affiliates, along with their discount codes, at Think BIG Bodybuilding: https://thinkbigbodybuilding.com Scott shares how his opinion shifted after revisiting Anavar with coaching clients over the past year, and why the cholesterol changes he observed have him reconsidering the trade-off. In our listener Q&A, we discuss testosterone, Primobolan and Anadrol, back spasms during a cycle, Dave’s experiences with oral steroids, and whether sublingual administration changes the risks of oral AAS and YK-11. We also address a listener’s report of anaphylactic shock involving cagrilintide, nitrogen retention as a measure of steroid strength, and getting started as an online coach.

    Blood Sweat & Gear 365: Our Biggest PED Mistakes + Growth Hormone Q&A

    What are the biggest PED mistakes experienced bodybuilding coaches have made? Skip Hill, Andrew Berry, and Scott McNally share personal stories and lessons learned on Blood Sweat & Gear, then tackle growth hormone questions in bodybuilding. Starting with a rough clenbuterol experience, we discuss mistakes we’ve made and why “bioidentical” doesn’t automatically mean safe. Then we cover GH and insulin resistance, berberine and metformin for insulin sensitivity, every-other-day growth hormone dosing, and questions about the supply of pharmaceutical GH. Plus, unusually high IGF-1 levels, Skip’s experience with Increlex, a listener physique critique, and some behind-the-scenes TV talk.
