    testosterone and collagen

    hey guys,

    i know a lot of you read that little article that says that <200 mg per week of test will increase protein synthesis , and anything above that will actually decrease it .

    but i reallly dont believe that , and there are no studies whatsoever that prove that supraphysiological doses of test decrease collagen , or is there ??

    help on the subject please.

    thanks

    i've read the article, i am not saying its wrong, its might be right, but i dont beleive that this number (<200mg) applies to everyone, surely a person who is 150lbs needs a different range than a person who is 250lbs.

    I know a guy at 150lbs shouldnt be cycling in the first place. but in this case we are talking about collagen synthesis, not use for anabolic gains.

    bump would like to know this also? Will test at 500mg reduce collagen hence causing joint pain?

    ive read that test inhibits collagen synthesis,

    thats why many run deca ,EQ or HGH for joint and ligament/tendon support as they increase it.
