LOL. EPO? Yeah, but takes a lotta eyes on yourself to make sure your hemocrit doesn't move to unsafe levels. Better stay hydrated as well or your blood sludges. If you are running EPO, you are competing and are a serious biker. Risks dont seem worth it otherwise imo.

My thoughts exactly.

EPO increses RBC and can only be used for a month or so, and it's actually quite dangerous if you get the dosages wrong.

Just have to keep your levels to the same amount as people that live in oxygen deprived areas. The only time you risk death from epo is if you exceed 60% or so. After that, the blood starts to get too thick. Natural athletes have a maximum of 54%. The 4% increase might not seem like much but it makes a huge difference. Just as with any dangerous compound (dnp/slin), if used right, it should be as simple as any other steroid.

You can only use it for a month or so. You inject EPO until you reach the levels you want your hematocrit to be at. So if you want 60% and you're at 50%, you inject until you reach 60%. Your blood will go back to normal in around 6 months. Until then you don't even need to use it again.

That being said, getting information on how to properly use EPO is hard as hell. It's a very underground and undocumented drug when used for performance enhancing. Most studies on it are done on people with anemia and it acts differently with them, and they have a different injection protocol. For performance enhancing, the only information available is mostly from professional marathon runners and cyclists and when it comes to a drug that can make a person money, you can be sure they keep as much of that info private as possible. From what I have gathered, EPO requires iron injections as well. Iron injections are just as dangerous if not more so then EPO itself. Basically the new blood cells that your body creates, have to bind with iron. If they don't, you're basically wasting the drug. Once they bind with iron, then they can store oxygen. The problem is, if you don't inject iron along with epo, your iron will drop to dangerous levels. But if you inject too much iron, you risk death. There is also other little things that cyclists use along with epo that I haven't been able to figure out yet.
