I don't and have never followed a "Method". My workout came from some early basic understanding that was handed down to me. I tweaked it for a few years and ran with it. Once I hit my 20's I cut the number of times I hit a body part.

This may surprise most people but for the most part; I do the same workout I have always done for roughly the last 15+ year. Only real difference it putting in or talking out DL if I'm going to compete.

I'm sure someone can provide some science that says what I'm doing is all wrong. But then I can provide some numbers that proves differently. Like I think Seeker said, we need both and only a fool would not respect that.

All wrong no, but being closed minded means you are potentially leaving gains on the table or could have avoided injury etc...

Talking about proving a negative which isn't possible but, I think you get my point. In case you don't- what you did worked to get you what you got. What if you could have gotted more tho?

There's a better chance that had I done it differently, I would have gotten less. There's also a good chance that had I done it any other way, I wouldn't be doing it now.

Exactly. There is no evidence to suggest either way. But if there is evidence why dismiss it?

What he's saying is that the changes you made based on experience helped.
But perhaps using scientific data on top of experience, you could have been 1, 5, even 10% better off than where you are now.

Alright, some of you guys know my numbers from back in the day. Who here can tell me that a 10 % increase in my squat while in the 198's is doable for me? Let's not forget, I was clean as the day is long.

Sorry Zilla, got off topic.

I'm kind of just letting you guys get all this out of your systems here. As long as it doesn't spread over to the other threads its all good :)

GetSome was a great asset to the board but even his first cycle thread has several mistakes in it.

As to your question of how a study would help a first cycle:

It was a study that told everyone that estradiol is raised in response to an increase in test or another aromatizimg compound. It was a study that showed how much test the average body produces and what's needed to go supraphysiological. If you're asking for a scientific study to write you out the perfect first cycle it'll never happen bc of the ethical restrictions researchers are operating under.

Its a good point docd

The problem is simply that you can find studies and theories that suggest both. Science is not absolute like math and physics. Your answer and data will depend on who conducted the study. POB said it best on the second post of the sticky here:

Good start. I would also remind people that studies don't really "prove." They suggest, demonstrate or provide evidence of. Especially when you are only citing a single resource.

Basically be open minded about being wrong.

IMO, talk to those who have first hand experience and learn from them vs 3rd and 4th hand information given in a "study"

Do:
- Feel free to request papers that you may not be able to access freely and I, as well as others, will do our best to find them for you. I do suggest you save this for PMs though so that we don't clog up the forum unnecessarily.

I've been thinking of writing a few articles on peptides in my spare time, as I've realized most people don't understand the pharmacology or pharmacokinetics of many of them (i.e. see the latest kisspeptin thread peptides forum), and I feel this is an area I can contribute back to the forum (analysis and presentation of scientific study data and literature).

My question is as follows; if there's a paper I need access to, then should I only PM you... or are there other people I should consider including on the request as well?

You are entitled to PM whoever you choose of course. I'm simply not aware of anyone else on the board who has regular access to papers behind pay walls.

If someone else does have this kind of access, and is willing to help you, then they should feel free to correct me here :)
