    Why Winny?! I thought it dried up joints for some people. Are they looking for getting it’s “hardening” effects on muscle? You’d think they be getting caught with Dbol.

      Because it doesn’t affect bodyweight much. The same reason a lot of sprinters are using it.

        Price and easy oral administration are probably bigger factors. I imagine they don’t have the money to put a bunch of non medalist juniors on doctor supervised expensive drug regimens. They saved some cash there which they’ll need to pay the 50k+ usd fine lol.

      Huge strength increase little weigh gain. Anavar does this better but its a lot more expensive for high quality.

    Winny was originally meant for veterinary purposes and there’s some type of injectable pairing that it supposed to counteract the deleterious joint effects. I can’t remember the name of it, but its fairly cheap and I think it’s even legal.
