    The Anabolic Cartel Podcast Episode 35 | With Alex Thompson
    2022/11/30

    In this episode, Trevor and Alex talked about anabolic steroids and maintaining good health while using them with the assistance of your primary care doctor. They also bring up the worst ways to discuss this with your Dr. (Specifically, what not to do when discussing AAS with your Dr.). They also cover miracle weight loss peptides, growth hormones, and protein containers.

    We hope you guys enjoy the show! We are planning on more content soon. Please share with a friend and on social media to help us get our content to more people to help us grow the Anabolic Cartel. If you or someone you know think you would be a good guest or is interested in being a sponsor for the show, please reach out to me directly at trevor@tgbsupplements.com. Thank you for listening and supporting the show!

    Topics:

    • How to approach your physician about anabolic
    • Short discussion on a new alternative pain management option
    • What is the best way to utilize low dose Growth hormone and MK677 together?
    • GLP-1 Semiglutide benefits for weight loss and
    • GH and immune function
    • A new study shows that an average testosterone level for one man may not be customary for another.
    • Enclomiphene benefits and can, in many cases, be as effective as Transdermal Testosterone for increasing total testosterone levels. Still, it does this by causing an increase in natural products instead of suppression, which occurs when using exogenous Testosterone.
    • Last, they discuss the best prescription strength sexual enhancers currently available. We discuss how and why they work. Specifically, we talk about Tadafinil, Sidafinil, Oxytocin, and apomorphine, and we dive into PT141 a little bit deeper.

  • The Anabolic Cartel Podcast Episode 30 | with Tristan Nazelrod WADA tested USPL, IPF Powerflifting athlete

    The Anabolic Cartel Podcast Episode 30 | with Tristan Nazelrod WADA tested USPL, IPF Powerflifting athlete
    2021/12/16
    This episode introduces how Tristan got started in powerlifting and what he does for a living. We discussed what it means to be a professional powerlifter and compete in USA PowerLifting (USAPL) as well as the International Powerlifting Federation (IPF). Both organizations mandate drug testing. We also discuss how World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) testing works. We enumerated his totals and best meets to date. He is currently one week out from a meet in Morgantown, West Virginia where he plans to hit a 1900 total at 264lbs. Tristan is a 6-time USA national winner of his class and a 5-time Team USA Competitor. His best totals are 340kg (748lbs) / 215kg (473lbs) / 345kg (759lbs). Tristan sets a prime example of what hard work and dedication can do for an athlete when they are committed to succeeding. The fact that he can hit these kinds of numbers at 25 years old while being a strict drug-tested athlete is truly impressive. It is something that should be acknowledged more. People rarely reach up to these kinds of numbers drug-free. Most can’t hit these numbers using various performance-enhancing drugs. These boost the athlete’s physical advantage but unfortunately, at the cost of their health. With that in mind, it is amazing to see that this is possible without any drug.  The fact that he is drug-free and uses very little over-the-counter supplementation is commendable. He has nothing against Performance-Enhancing Drugs (PED) but at his age, he knows it does not align with his goals. It is quite profound to see this type of dedication and commitment in a world where everyone wants to see results overnight. It is refreshing to see someone who is going after their goals without any type of shortcuts. You can reach Tristan on Instagram: @tank_power917 to see his lifts. Feel free to reach out if you are interested in sponsoring him. Tristan understands that at this point, he may be lucky to add a few pounds to his personal record each year and accepts it as part of the process.    Topics: Tristan’s background and how he got into powerliftingThe time he started getting more serious about powerlifting Insights from his powerlifting competition How powerlifting meets workHow to qualify for international powerliftingExperience on his best powerlifting meetHow he managed to win the North American championship despite having injuriesOn efficient and unharmful steroidsWhat type of training that’s most suitable for himHow he sees himself in the futureHis memory of the first world championship he went toOn his current training How he warmups and his preparation even with injuriesOn his training on the Iron Forged Gym   Links: Tristan’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tank_power917/ Bill McCarthy’s Email: getlift@gmail.com Bill McCarthy’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/getthelift/   Keeps (hair loss prevention): https://joinkeeps.com/TGBSupplements   *Anabolic Cartel Podcast is sponsored by Let’sGetChecked and ReGenesis HRT Let’s get Checked – trylgc.com/CartelUse code CARTEL30 to save 30% off your entire orderIf you are interested in learning more about Regenesis HRT or Testosterone Replacement Therapy, email me at trevor.benko@regenesishrt.com   Be sure to stop by TGB Supplements and The Iron Forged Gym if you are in the Uniontown, PA area.   Visit our website to buy clothing and merchandise at https://www.anaboliccartel.com.
