Bigger Lats with Site Injections??

Q: How about shooting your lats for back width? I see guys who compete at the pro level and I could swear they’d just start flying away they are so wide and have such amazing lats. Surely they must shoot their lats on a regular basis, right?
A: Good hard training never hurt anyone either! Truth is, the lats are a problem. There are enough places that are easier to hit than the lats and will be more beneficial. Plus, nobody really has proven that you are making better gains by site injecting. It may or may not be valid. It appears to be, but then growth is something that happens with AS use and it’s hard to quantify why it happened and where it happened first or more profoundly. It’s like the “chicken vs. the egg” theory… which came first? We have absolutely no damn idea! But can the latissimus dorsi be shot? Yes sir – as can any muscle or place on your body – but it’s an awkward place and because there is so much sinew and tendon attachment, it’s not the most ideal place. It’s also one of the most awkward to shoot yourself. What you may be seeing up on the stage is a lot of Synthol use in the lat area, too. This, of course, has nothing to do with training. Back to the logistics… The risk you run of injecting the lats is that you will invariably come in around the under arm area and at a weird angle. Because there is a lot of bacteria on the skin’s surface in that area, and a lot of sweat glands, you run the risk of infecting the area or injuring yourself. Our conclusion: Why?
Anabolic Steroids Making Hands Fall Asleep?
Q: I don’t know what’s going on, but my hands are falling asleep, both in bed and also in the gym, of all things. It’s been really happening for the past 2-3 weeks only, but it’s worrying me. I am on a big cycle right now, and I’m wondering if I am going into stroke mode?
A: Well, being on a big cycle could be a cause. After all, total body edema is not uncommon on what you describe as a big cycle. And if you are not eating ideally while using drugs like D-bol, Test, and Sustanon, or any big combo such as this, you run the risk of extremity swelling. Excess water can press on capillaries and veins that lead into the hand through the wrist, and constrict the blood’s ability to flow and feed those areas. Typically, when something falls asleep, it’s because something is pressing on its blood flow and restricting it. Tight areas can also be caused by the beginning of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) – particularly in the wrists and hands.
Compressed neuropathy at the volar (under part) of the wrist joint affects the median nerve and causes the thumb, index finger and middle fingers, as well as the palm of the hand, to fall asleep. So if your problem is carpal tunnel, or you suspect that you have some repetitive injury issues (the causes of carpal tunnel) if, for instance, you work on computers or rest your wrists on a desk all day long, then you should go get them diagnosed properly and go through the necessary surgery. If it’s just generalized edema and it affects the smaller joints of the body, causing tingling and a lack of circulation, then try some estrogen blockers, diuretics or aromatase inhibitors.
