    Cool Reality check . . .

    We're comparing apples and oranges here . . .

    Anything sold at GNC or through any other supplement supplier is not testosterone . It may be like testosterone, if only in terms of its hype, but it's not test (which is available only by prescription).

    Androgel , on the other hand, is testosterone, and it does require a prescription. It has medical value (as evidenced in the recent thread started by Androplex, who has used it quite successfully for medical purposes), but will not deliver sufficient test to be useful as part of an AS cycle.

    So, is Androgel legit? Absolutely, within its parameters. But it does require a prescription, is very expensive (the most expensive prescription delivery method available at this time), and it's of no use from a bodybuilding/weightlifting/AS cycle perspective, only as a testosterone replacement vehicle for men with andropause or hypogonadism. Even then, I normally do not recommend Androgel, since there are variables that range from general efficacy to variable dermal absorption issues.

    And are the pseudo-test products from GNC legit? IMO/FWIW, no - they're bullshit. If you need to repace test or you want more test, you take test, not pseudo-test. Ain't nothin' like the real thing.

    I agree completly with almost everything you guys said except.......
    I know a guy who uses it and he rubs it on his arms. He says that his arms have really toned well and hes gained about .5 of an inch on his arms in 6 months. Which could also be from lifting. But I don't see why it wouldn't work much like spot injections? I was wondering if anyone could shed any light on that.
    Thanks

    Nope - it's very weak - dont bother. It doesnt absorb fully so the minimal amounts of testosterone you get in that packet are decreased even more when you try to run it on - transdermal methods for testosterone have not been perfected and are still a waste of time thus far.
