Now let’s talk about forbidden things, about which there is so much information on the Internet, where 90% is complete trash and no truth.

1. what is doping in boxing

2. why do they use it?

3. Do all boxers use?

4. Is it really effective?

I answer.

The big picture

Every boxer wants to have impressive performance and superiority over his opponents. Often, huge loads during training seriously exhaust the body. And the athlete wants to perform large programs, but his physical capabilities are limited. And he can use steroids to expand them.

However, these drugs should be used extremely carefully, and have a clear idea of ​​which drug is useful for developing strength, which one is useful for endurance, etc. You should consult your doctor before using them. The athlete must realize whether the need for such doping is so great and what the consequences of its use may be.

CREATINE

It is a cheap, but most studied supplement. It is widely used by various athletes to increase strength, endurance and muscle mass. Creatine is a natural substance found in the body of vertebrates. A person has about 110-150g of creatine. It participates in energy exchange and acts as one of the sources of energy for muscles. Under normal conditions, creatine consumption is about 2g per day. Physical activity increases this indicator, so its reserves should be replenished through diets or supplements.

For fighters, creatine is a controversial supplement because creatine tends to retain fluid in the muscles, which can affect an athlete's weight before a tournament, as well as their mobility. Therefore, it is important to use it outside the competitive period. But in our top it takes first place, since its positive properties in terms of increasing strength and endurance have been repeatedly proven by scientists. In addition, studies have been conducted that have shown that additional creatine intake helps to increase the body's production of anabolic hormones such as growth hormone and testosterone.

Anabolic types

Their short name is AAC. And today they are all included in the list of prohibited substances.

These are powerful hormonal agents that mimic the functioning of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone. They increase the rate of protein replication in muscle tissue, which leads to rapid muscle growth.

Forms of their use: tablets and injections.

The course of such steroids for boxers should be formed on the basis of medical recommendations and with the use of auxiliary drugs. Some of these are: antiestrogens and gonadotropins. The minimum age allowed for this is 21 years.

To begin with, it is recommended to use light types, such as methandienone. Frequency of use – 1 month and once a year.

With longer and more regular use, the immune mechanism may be disrupted. Trenbolone and nandrolone are especially dangerous in this regard.

It is advisable to use anabolic steroids for boxers in combination with such drugs as:

1. Glutamine. Dosage: 8-10 g twice a day.
2. Omega-3. 3-4 g per day.
3. Apilak. 1-2 tablets per day.

The safest anabolic drugs for boxers are Anavar and Winstrol. It does not lead to rapid weight gain, but it seriously develops power and endurance, and also eliminates fat deposits.

Painkiller group

Also, many painkillers are considered doping. Whether they are used in boxing or not, I don’t know. But I can assume that they are used to improve the “hold”. No confirmation. The Internet is silent and everyone I talked to knows nothing about it. But I think that everything is not as simple as it seems, and something is used there at the highest professional level. You can only find out about this by rising to that professional level.

A few words in conclusion about prohibited substances.

I, the author of this article, can absolutely truthfully say that of the prohibited substances I only used furosemide (during cutting), ephedrine (during cutting) and did not try anything else. However, I tried everything I could of the permitted substances. I experimented on myself for 3 years. The coaches in our old Soviet schools don’t know anything, so we have to experiment.

I fulfilled the master of sports standard in the weight category up to 69 kg, without using any prohibited substances (I will not consider furosemide and ephedrine prohibited, since it happened only a couple of times and only for experimentation).

I can say that it is possible to become a RF MS without using doping. But you will have to plow a lot. Would I have been able to achieve such a result without legal pharma? I don’t know. The legal pharma that I wrote about gave a lot. I think that without her I would hardly have been able to train like this and would hardly have been able to reach such peak shape.

Therefore, if your goal is 1st category, CMS, MS, don’t bother with doping. You still need specialists for this or you will kill yourself. But you can try legal pharma.

The most effective means

It is important for boxers not to lose their speed and mobility, while at the same time being powerful and durable. Anabolic drugs are radical means for them.

In terms of overall effectiveness, the best steroids for boxers are:

1. Turinabol. Its analogue is oxandrolone. Used only in combination with a proper diet. Otherwise the course will be useless. They help you gain weight.
2. Drostanolone. An identical remedy is stanozolol. Explosive power and dynamics are perfectly developed.
3. Testosterone propionate. Characterized by a solid spectrum of positive effects. It leaves the body very quickly.
4. Fluoxymesterone. Has great efficiency. It is considered one of the best products in its class. But it poses a serious threat to the liver.
5. Methenolone enanthate. A similar remedy is boldenone. These are the most effective steroids for boxers in gaining mass, and of the highest quality.

It is also recommended to develop the functionality of joints and ligaments. Somatotropin is suitable for these purposes. You can use an identical drug - IGF.

The best AAS for fighters

Oxandrolone and Turinabol

These drugs can help an athlete improve all basic characteristics in a short time. In addition, if the appropriate nutrition program is followed, they will not be able to negatively affect the fighter’s technique. An additional advantage of these AAS is the rapid disposal of metabolites, which makes them difficult to detect during drug testing.

Masteron and Stanozolol

Both drugs are very popular among track and field athletes as they can quickly increase explosive speed and strength. In addition, Masteron perfectly stimulates overall endurance. An additional advantage of these anabolic steroids is the acceleration of regenerative processes, as well as a minimal increase in muscle mass.

Testosterone Propionate

Propik is perfect for athletes who want to get the first results in the shortest possible time. If this is not important for you, then you can use prolonged esters of the male hormone - Enanthate and Cypionate . But the use of composite AAS – Sustanon and Omnadren – should be abandoned.

Halotest

It is in combat sports that Fluoxymesterone is most popular. An excellent bonus when using it is a sharp increase in aggressiveness. However, Halotest its shortcomings. First of all, we are talking about a high rate of hepatotoxicity. In addition, the cost of anabolic steroids is quite high.

Primobolan and Boldenone

These steroids should be used by athletes who need to increase muscle mass. Bold and Primobolan allow you to gain exceptionally high-quality and working mass. It is worth remembering that the best choice for ensuring the highest possible anabolic background is esters of the male hormone. It is to Testosterone that it is worth adding one of these AAS.

Improved stamina

Winstrol and boldenone are usually used for this purpose. Admission format: injections. Oxandrolone tablets are also recommended.

A course of steroid use for endurance boxers must be carefully prepared. There are two synchronous stages here, these are training of the cardiovascular system and ligaments

Since any of these steroids increases the proportion of red blood cells in the blood, the heart muscle will work much harder. Therefore, to avoid a heart attack, mandatory heart training is necessary. Such remedies as panangin and mildronate will not interfere. In any case, you need to consult a cardiologist.

Winstrol is useful for the development of ligaments. But before the course, you need to take tests for progesterone levels.

To develop endurance, you should not focus only on steroids. A combination with the following products is recommended here:

1. Growth hormones.
2. Insulin.
3. Chondroprotectors (popular supplements).
4. Collagen.
5. Vitamin C

All this will improve the speed and quality of recovery after training. During the course itself, the intensity and load of classes should be increased.

If there is a need for increased strength training, then you should rely on a program for weightlifters.

As for dosages, for the indicated drugs it is as follows:

CHONDROITIN AND GLUCOSAMINE

The condition of his ligaments and joints plays a vital role in maintaining the physical well-being of a fighter, since they receive high stress during training and fights. The structure of cartilage tissue and ligaments includes chondroitin and glucosamine, so supplements containing these components will help increase the strength and elasticity of the ligamentous apparatus. Studies have shown that these substances are best absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and penetrate the skin very poorly, so ointments are ineffective. The recommended daily dose of chondroitin is 1000 mg, glucosamine sulfate – 15,000, preferably taken in 2 doses.

Strictly prohibited

Whatever goals boxers pursue in their training, they must know the list of steroids that can seriously harm their health and professional qualities.

The most dangerous are Trenbolone, Methyltestosterone, and Methandrostenolone.

They have a huge range of side effects. For example: drying out the tendons, and impaired immunity and heart function, and even impotence.

The drug Nandrolone poses less of a threat, but it should only be taken together with growth hormones and in very small doses.

Which steroids are best for martial arts?

Today's article will definitely be useful for mixed martial arts fighters. First of all, explosive speed, strength, general endurance, as well as the body’s ability to quickly recover are valued in combat sports. At the same time, it is extremely important to remember about technique, which should not suffer during the fighter’s training period. If you do martial arts (judo, sambo, boxing, freestyle wrestling, taekwondo, kickboxing, karate, and even the UFC) and are wondering: should you take steroids or not? Then this article is definitely for you. Brief, simple and concise. Go.

First, it’s worth listing steroids that are definitely not useful to representatives of combat sports:

1. Trenbolone;
2. Methandienone;
3. Nandrolone;
4. Methyltestosterone;
5. Oxymetholone;

The main disadvantage of Nandrolone is the long time it takes to utilize metabolites. If a doping test is not carried out at competitions, then this anabolic steroid can be used.
