one of the most frequently asked questions we get at tigerfitness.com are about PR hormones what are the pros and cons now I'm old enough to remember when pro hormones kind of debuted Mark Maguire getting caught with anderin diione because all he was taken was andersin diione let's be real here so pro hormones are basically a precursor to steroids but when you take pro hormones let's say the old SCH andrine diione let's say you even get into the 1 ads the things like that you're still going to suppress your system so when you add exogenous hormones
to your body your body stops producing because it doesn't need it it senses hey I'm already getting this stuff so essentially your testicles are like what am I producing this for I don't even have to do it so it stops producing it so when you take something like an Insurgent or a barracuda that is endogenous testosterone I want to make a distinction so natural testosterone boosters that do work do they work as well as steroids absolutely not anybody who tells you they do is an absolute liar so you look at MTS nutrition Insurgent you're looking
at according to human data we have about a 20% increase in total and free testosterone put that in perspective if your testosterone which can make up a number is at 100 get you up to 120 oo right that's still great puts you in an more anabolic state but it's not going to be steroid likee now if you inject enough testosterone you can take that 100 to 40,000 I've seen it done not saying it's done frequently but I've seen it done I've seen the blood work and a lot of youve probably heard of people doing that
so that is the difference between natural testosterone boosters and pro hormones now what you see for sale for example on tigerfitness.com are third generation dheas which means that they're far down the line they convert through different Pathways not getting too scientific about it so it takes a few steps now one thing I would be cent of is we are not quite sure if they suppress you like the old school pro hormones or the straight up testosterones the straight up steroids of the world but there is the chance that that'll happen so how do you mitigate
that at the end of the day if it does suppress you it's a matter of how much and if it completely shuts you down so if it completely shuts you down that's something you do need to worry about that's why of course consult your doctor before taking any supplement or any steroid or anything of that nature but I would look into some kind of a post-cycle therapy that would hopefully increase your endogenous production and also decrease the potential concurrent increase in testosterone so one thing I would look at is can I take a natural test
booster so if I was to do a new school pro hormone cycle all the dheas that are completely legal based on desay desay is the act we all follow it's a dietary supplement and health Act so when you have when you take that and you come off let's say you do four weeks and you come off what id recommend is starting an endogenous test booster like an Insurgent like a barracuda what I would do is I'd start with four weeks of Barracuda stacked with Insurgent then just continue Insurgent from there on because you do not
need to cycle Insurgent whereas a barracuda it has daa da it doesn't get bad nothing gets weird if you take it prolonged it just loses its effect at increasing your testosterone now if you look at daa you're looking at as much of a 40% increase in total testosterone which is pretty freaking cool again not steroid like but pretty freaking cool right it'll definitely have some benefits for you so as you look at pro hormones if they're right for you the one is there are some unknown risks there's not a lot of human data on these
third generation pro hormones we just know that they are natural according to desay and they can be sold but if there is a drop in your body's natural production you do need to make up for that sometimes most times your body will just kick in and start producing after a little bit of time noticing that you're not getting that signal of the exogenous testosterone however or that exogenous hormone however to Kickstart it you can't go wrong with a good natural test booster again my recommendation would be Insurgent Barracuda for for the first four weeks keep
Insurgent going and MTS nutrition Tyrant helps control bad estrogen and also helps control cortisol so that'll help decrease that potential for negative side effects from having a concurrent increase in estrogen so that is my opinion on pro hormones so if you have any questions of course we're always here to help you at tigerfitness.com thanks so much for watching
