Horse and Vet Supplements Are Helping Bodybuilders Just As Much As Vet Drugs
Most of us have had experiences with veterinary drugs… simply incredible drugs that generally are targeted towards horses or dogs… and the ensuing results have probably always been spectacular. However, when you first start, the concept of ingesting something intended for our four legged friends can be a bit jarring. You wonder if you’re going to take Winstrol and end up jumping 5 foot fences, or if you’re going to get on all fours, pee on your neighbor’s mailbox and chase a rabbit if you sample some of Fido’s hormonal medication – and haven’t we all had a moment on all fours where it’s been embarrassing? Scratch that. Look, there’s definitely a reason that veterinarian drugs are desired by many and why taking the lead of race and show horse performance may be the best plan. Sport horses are insanely amazing athletes. Not just your typical race horses, but dressage…
Using Furosemide As a Pre-Contest Diuretic
One of the final stages of preparation before a bodybuilding physique contest is to remove subcutaneous water from just below the skin in the body. This in done through the use of saunas, water deprivation, and most commonly, diuretics. A diuretic is a supplement that forces the body to very quickly urinate several pounds of fluid from the body, usually within 2 to 5 hours. Diuretics are used to allow the bodybuilder to display muscle striations and veins usually hidden. Long-term or extreme use of diuretics can lead to organ failure or death. Caution should always be taken, and never without the supervision of a physician. Furosemide is a common potassium-sparing diuretic used by bodybuilders. One 40 mg pill usually results in a 5-pound fluid loss within 2 to 4 hours. Furosemide is marketed under a wealth of brand names, including Aisemide, Beronald, Desdemin, Discoid, Diural, Diurapid, Dryptal, Durafurid, Errolon,…
Why Men and Women Avoid Personal Training With the Opposite Sex
All fitness centers are a place for many types of gym goers, this does not include bodybuilding gyms and women’s only fitness centers. All fitness centers provide personal training. There has always been some separation with male and female personal trainers. The big question here is why males and females avoid personal training with the opposite sex? From a female personal trainer perspective, I see this male and female personal trainer avoidance quite often. First, most personal trainers are willing to work with anyone and everyone. Some may prefer older adults, men, women, children, or just athletes. In my own personal experience some older women tend to avoid male personal trainers because they feel as though they are only into body building which reduces the chances of training with a male trainer. Some women think male trainers are the “Arrogant” type. A good majority of women only want to train…

They can also tell you the latest news about various internet muscle building Guru’s, bodybuilding champions and fit movie stars. Unfortunately, despite all of their knowledge about bodybuilding diets and training…

Anabolic Steroids and Virilization in Women – (Q & A)
The general public often attaches women’s bodybuilding to a certain stigma.
