"Come on, get serious!" Arnold in Pumping Iron

ultragainz · 07-09-2002, 08:03 PM

i dont think you can die from *** just like that...if taken with drugs or some drinks then you can...the people who died why didnt espn say what else was in there bodies and what caused death it wasnt just the *** alone..*** is safe just like all the other meds lets say for an example..some meds that are behind and over the counter taken wrong or with drugs and alcohol can cause death.but when that happens the meds dont get heat but when someone does something dumb with *** then *** gets all the heat...i think its fine that *** is illegal only for one reason...so no one uses it in a wrong way..but all the morons use it in a wrong way so it will stay illegal...

sorry,i didnt read everything that was on the espn link so if iam off topic a little sorry

what are you going to do when ultragainz runs wild on you?!-

The most troubling is G's use as a bodybuilding tool. Weight-room folklore has it that *** taken just before bedtime helps release human growth hormone: a way to grow muscles while you sleep.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WOW! Just what Ive always wanted. Now I can skip the weights and drink G and goto bed!

quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What evidence clearly shows is that *** and its analogs are highly addictive. Researchers are finding *** withdrawal is as difficult as coming off heroin, and even more dangerous. Without proper medical treatment, *** addicts can die of stroke and heart failure while trying to quit.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Personally, I thought it was very, very NON-addictive. I hate the taste of it yuck..that alone is enough to keep me from taking it very often.

quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yet *** is just as dangerous, if not more so, than either coke or 'roids. And vast numbers of young people are using it. For once, it would be nice if the leagues got out front and began speaking openly with athletes about a drug -- before they're forced into reacting, too late, by suffering and death

Did you hear that??? Worse than ROIDS!!! [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif[/img] [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif[/img] [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif[/img]

Back when I started AAS I told my aunt who is an ER nurse. You know what the first thing she said was? Stay away from G, she said that amoung teens and 20 year olds its the most common overdose where she works. She said they get one at least every week, not all deaths, but just overdoses. This is in Indiana BTW. Funny thing though, all my friends still dont know what G is. I never even heard of it till I moved to FL.

Talk out your ass firt check the facts later,
1,4 was a fairly small monkey, 48-72 and withdrawal was over... 'we are full of shit we are the self rightous medical community, although in our profession drug abuse is most abondent (no shit really docs are #1 drug addicts) we cant get of our ass and educate the public'. And then you got some asshole reporter spreading the bs.

BTW... mr. reporter this is all from first hand experience...

As usual, this report is full of fiction. It is so offbase that any intellegent response is seemingly unrelated. Even more deaths than x? Well, since 1990 there have been less than 3000 emergency room visits from x, and very few deaths.

G/alcohol is the suspected culprit in almost all of the deaths, in some educated doctor's opinions.

X overdose ratio at present is 1 in 7 million.

G is higher than that, because it is very easy to overdose on g.

Good thing I stopped all of those drugs, isn't it?

We must have gone on vacation at the same time, I for one see more G in the future.

This is such bullshit...the only time i ever went to the hospital soley because of *** is after i guesstimated with a bottle cap on some gbl...i told my buddy to bring me out of the club if i got tipsy which i figured i would...about 1 hr later i got to that point so he brought me out side and i sat down on the sidewalk leaning against the wall of the club and began to nod off here and there...next thing i know some emt's were messing with me and woke me up..then they proceeded to kidnap me..as i told them dont take me to the hospital i dont have medical insurance... i was able to state my name address where i was and why i was there...yes i was in and out of conciousness but it was nothing a little sleep couldnt fix... in the ambulance one emt proceeded to make me puke then by the time i got to the hospital i was fully awake(still faded)and explained everything to the emt's which didnt know what the fuck i was talking about...then i proceeded to walk out but a security guard stopped me because i hadn't given them my name and addy for billing which i didnt think about at the time because the emt's told me not to worry about because i didnt have insurance so after a year of battling over the bill i thought i had the case solved but then six months later(after 5-6 notices before) they send me another notice to pay or they will garish my wages...
