I think it will be a good resource here too..do your research before using AAS.

Ok...basically, I get alot of questions when I post up information backed by studies....and often people ask me where I found particular studies or obtained some obscure piece of information online. If you are interested in researching anabolics, pharmacology/pharmacokinetics, training, nutrition, and all that's related, I have some suggestions. My first suggestion is not to discount regular search engines:
Google:
www.google.com
You can find almost everything you need on it, if you learn how to use it properly. Your next stop should always be to Medline/Pubmed:
Pubmed:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?DB=pubmed
Pubmed has basically all scientific and medical journal articles published since some time in the 50's. Almost everything I research online starts with a Pubmed search (remember, I have hundreds of dollars in medical/chemical books sitting on my book shelf, as well as every decent book on Anabolics ever written). But if I'm lacking a particular book, I try to find the PDF version of it here...they have around 600+ PDF medical textbooks on this site:
Free Books for Doctors:
http://freebooks4doctors.com/fb/index.htm
My next stop, if I don't need a book, is usually a search on the :
Journal of Applied Physiology:
http://jap.physiology.org/search.dtl
-or the-
Journal of Clinical Investigation:
http://www.jci.org/
-and-
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism:
http://jcem.endojournals.org/
If you are looking for sports-related research specifically (training, nutrition, re & prehab, etc...) then you'll want to try this site:
SportsSci:
http://sportsci.org/
For hard to find articles, I use this really obscure site/engine:
FindArticles:
http://www.findarticles.com/
For chemical structures, there's two decent sites:
Chemfinder:
http://chemfinder.cambridgesoft.com/
-and-
Chemindustry:
http://www.chemindustry.com/apps/chemicals
(or sometimes)
INCHEM:
http://www.inchem.org/
For alot of other stuff, when the other search engines and databases fail, I use direct journals:
AIDS Journals:
http://www.freemedicaljournals.com/htm/spec1.htm#hiv

The FDA:
http://www.fda.gov/
The NIH:
http://www.nih.gov/
New Scientist:
http://www.smi.stanford.edu/pubs/index.html
For information on recreational drugs and such, I usually go to:
Erowid:
www.erowid.com
-followed by either-
The Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies:
http://www.maps.org/
Dansesafe:
www.dansesafe.org
As for Online or print Authors and Magazines, I generally read stuff by Duchaine Karl Hoffman, Bill Roberts, and alot of whats written in Mind and Muscle:
Mind and Muscle Magazine:
http://magazine.mindandmuscle.net/
for which I have contributed to recently....Of course, I've also written most of the profiles on Bodybuilding4life.com www.bodybuilding4life.com )as well as the profiles for steroid.com http://forums.steroid.com/forumdisplay.php?f=102 ) and have had some work of mine appear on T-Nation (www.t-nation.com ).
Anyway, basically all of the information I've ever posted comes from one of the above sites or search engines. So now that you have all of them, you can check up on my references, or do some researching and writing of your own.
