Can you give steroid advice?

I found a discussion where Dr. Andrew Huberman and Dr. Craig Heller talk about the use of anabolic steroids in contexts like sports. They compare the effectiveness of steroid use to other performance enhancement methods such as Palmer cooling. The specific point they make is that while studies have shown that anabolic steroids could lead to a 1% improvement in bench press performance per week, Palmer cooling has shown to achieve a 300% increase in performance in a month 1. However, it's important to clarify that this does not constitute direct advice on steroid use but rather provides information on the effects and comparisons to other methods.

Dr. Huberman does not provide steroid advice directly but discusses related topics, such as hormone optimization, effects of cortisol on stress, and the importance of certain hormones for well-being, reproduction, and sexual behavior 2. Another related discussion covers the impact of chronic stress on the hormone system 3.

It's key to be mindful that anabolic steroids are controlled substances in many regions and their use without a prescription can be illegal and potentially harmful. Always seek professional medical advice before considering the use of such substances.
