yes, i play golf often and know guys that juice and play golf. Also having so many years in football and weightlifting I have seen athletes on every kind of performance enhancing drug know to man. He could have been on Anavar, Winstrol, Primobolan, etc and wouldn't gain alot of mass but could no doubt gain strength and power. You don't have to be huge to be on them, genetics still plays a huge role in sheer size. Very, very possible here.Originally posted by FishFace5Comment -
Agreed. The chances of him having done something along those lines or even HGH on and off seems entirely possible. I just disagreed about the bonds and mac comparisons. Especially bonds who just transformed bodies at like 35 years old. At least tigers growth was a little more inline with natural human development.Comment -
First off let me say I'm down with Tiger but I'm afraid when it all said and done this guy is gonna be 2nd only to O.J. Simpson as far as fall from grace goes with the public.Comment -
Where did I say cortisone was anabolic steroids?Originally posted by mmike032
cortisone, really...
cortisone is not anabolic.
Corticosteroids or glucocorticoids, often just called "steroids", are drugs closely related to cortisol, a hormone which is naturally produced in the adrenal cortex (the outer layer of the adrenal gland). Corticosteroids act on the immune system by blocking the production of substances that trigger allergic and inflammatory actions, such as prostaglandins.
anabolic steroids are synthetic substances related to the male sex hormones (androgens). They promote growth of skeletal muscle (anabolic effect) and the development of male sexual characteristics (androgenic effects).
Cortisone is also synthetically manufacturered and gives athletes an edge by unnaturally diminishing pain and inflammations.
Do you think Kirk Gibson could have limped to the plate in Game 1 of the '88 World Series if he hadnt received cortisone shots? I dont think so.Comment -

There are studies linking cortisone shots to rupturing of achillies tendons.
I guess if the eggs are injected directly into the achillies.....Comment
