AAS and muscle glycogen storage

So, ofcourse, as we all know. When you are carb depleted, you usually look kinda flat, smaller, weaker, more pathetic, like a fucking worm, you look like you belong to the camp of…

No but seriously, when ur depleted, u look smaller, we all know that.

This is, natural.

But this is also the case on gear. Even if it is not neccesarily as bad.

I do have to say tho, from my experience:

The difference between being carb depleted on gear VS not on gear is pretty astonishing.

On gear, when you reduce ur carbs to like zero … yes, u look flat, and yes, ofcourse, u still build muscle if that is what you want.

HOWEVER, when you start adding in the carbs again - on gear - you fucking blow up. The difference is many times BIG BIG BIG!!

So obviously the gear par se increases ur muscles ability to store glycogen (way more than when natty).

So, do you guys know where one can read about this?

Also, do you guys know what is the difference in percentage when it comes to mainly glycogen storage when you compare different steroids? For example, Im sure nobody would argue nands store more glycogen than mast.

Test also seem to be pretty good at this, in comparison to for example winstrol.

Anyone got some studies or cool articles about it?

I would tend to agree, but never tested the theory in the two drug tested shows I did. I was 39 and didn’t want to jeopardize any muscle, as I was targeting Master’s Nationals when I turned 40. I entered the drug tested shows around 10% body fat.

What I really felt completely dissatisfied with was carb depletion/carb loading for a show. I did it a few times and never could depend on the results. I preferred getting as hard as I could with full muscle bellies (no carb depletion). “Dialed in” was simple that way.

Just my 2 cents.
