What's everyones opinions on this...?

I know that it's an unpopular opinion, but I don't see why anyone cares. Juiced/natural, so what. Steroids won't make you hit home runs, develop your instincts for a particular sport or game, or make your jiu-jitsu technique any better. For the most part, it's a supplement like any other. Sometimes I think people have a misconception about how pervasive the effects really are.

Plus, testosterone replacement therapy is a legitimate medical option for older guys to combat the effects of aging. It isn't about sports performance.

I loved that he gave Silva a run for his money, juiced or not.

He was being treated for hypogonadism, which can be secondary to anabolic steroid use. If he truly had primary hypogonadism, which I am assuming he is claiming, they why does he need to have testosterone levels eight times the normal range.... why not just supplement yourself back to within the normal range. I may be missing some pharmacokinetics here, but it seems odd.

This is my understanding of the test he failed, its not that he is 8x normal level, but his ratio of the two hormones tested is off by 8x. This is common in men with Low T, as the other hormone (could be an estrogen, I really dont know and dont remember) and the Low T are in "balance". When a person is being treated for the low T, it takes a long time for the lower level balance hormone to come into profile with normalized level of testosterone. So its not like his level of actual testosterone was high, its just it was high for his body's natural production, which is why the ratio was off. So he could have a "legal" testosterone level, but still have a very skewed ratio, because of the former condition of having low test.

Sonnen is full of shit, he was taking shit that he wasnt supposed to be. He knows the rules and has to follow them. Im sorry he has little baby balls and needs to take Test. Just because you get your test. prescribed doesnt make it any better then some one gettin it from the street.
