Ok Ok, I know they have different types of PEDS, but logically, wouldn't the "increased Mass" due to steroids make it harder to cut weight?

Maybe a combination of PEDS offsets the others, but just think about it.

I know some diuretics are considered PEDs, they help you make weight obviously

its not as simple as steroids = mass


for instance, corticosteroids eat fat off the body like crazy
 
nope.....Testosterone burns fat and builds muscle, if you do not lift it will burn fat while retaining your muscles
 
there is different types of roids bro some of them help you lose fat while building muscle so you can remain at the same weight while being more ripped
 
There's a plethora of different steroids with a plethora of different effects

It will also make you retain water so it does still require careful dietary planning to enjoy the effects of the Test without all of the bloat.
 
They would for me! nowadays I'm back to skinny. Waiting for people to start saying I look like Dave Chappelle again.

Steroids tend to increase your glycogen stores, and intramuscular water retention.
 
I would think that most of the PEDs that fighters use are for recovery purposes

It's not like you take an injection before bed and you wake up with 10 pounds of extra lean muscle mass

Nah, you would still have just as much water weight that you could cut. That's what guys do when they cut weight, eliminate all of the food from their body and a lot of the water. So whether the mass that remains is lean muscle or fat doesn't really make a difference besides one making it so you are a better athlete than the other.
 
More muscle = more water retained = easier weight cut

There's tons of stuff that will help you cut weight while gaining lean muscle...Winstrol, Anavar, masteron, tren, etc
 
if steroids are so wonderful shouldnt we all do them
 
Its nice that people who dont know anything think logically.
 
If you manage the excess water weight that accompanies some stuff, it's not any different. "Mass" isn't guaranteed by steroids alone and MMA training requires too many calories for one to gain significant mass on accident.
 
More like CombatIgnorance. Or maybe his user name makes sense if he is against science.

Interdasting.
