Is 499 ng/ml for Nandrolone a lot??

I was wondering if this was a lot or close to the normal amount.

Just wondering if the fighter knew he was going to test positive but took the fight anyway. ($)

It's a MASSIVE, MASSIVE amount.

Think he took steroids for the show or was training with the steroids and was called for the show??

 He was a last minute replacement.  Probally was training with the roids and just said fuck it, and rolled the dice and hoped he wouldn't get caught.

 

that is a pretty ridiculous number for nandrolone

To give you a comparison, you probably have a natural level of .4 and testing positive is considered anything over 2.0.

So 499 is the natural amount that 1247.5 men should have, all in Edwin.

Actually, it's even more extreme.

"Olympic laboratories, tasked with ensuring that their tests are fair as well as effective, have researched natural nandrolone production regularly over the past quarter-century, the most recent study being conducted at the 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano, Japan.

There, of 621 competitors tested after competition, only five produced results where their nandrolone levels exceeded 0.1 nanograms per millilitre of urine (ng/ml).All five were women. The levels in women are marginally higher, as a result of a different hormonal make-up and use of the contraceptive pill. But the levels are still minimal. Nobody in the Nagano tests exceeded 0.4ng/ml."

True, I was kind of using the top end of the possible natural scale, but obviously he had a fairly large supply flowing through him.

Jesus, imagine how badly he'd do without the roids?

From Josh Gross SI.com article

Edwin According to Garcia, Dewees had nine times as much nandrolone in his system than that of Royce Gracie, who registered an "off the charts" sample of close to 70 ng/ml last year.

Nandrolone brand name Deca Durabolin is steroid athletes often use to recover from joint injuries.

Dewees was probably taking it for some kind of injury.

he probably thought he was taking something else, as in a test of some kind.

He must have wanted to heal that joint with a vengeance!

Nandrolone scores fairly high on the strength gain and side effects chart (You can see comparative charts at steroid.com/effect.php)

I'm no expert and don't take any huge moral stand against roids, but it seems like the amount in his system would be extreme for any reason.

Sherk had 12 ng/ml. A normal adult male has about 2ng/ml and a top athlete should have approx 6ng/ml

WOW!

Maldini2706 - Sherk had 12 ng/ml. A normal adult male has about 2ng/ml and a top athlete should have approx 6ng/ml



Where did you get the "A normal adult male has about 2 ng/ml" from? That's the threshold for testing positive, how could a NORMAL male have it? If that was true, everybody would test positive. And how do you explain nobody in the nagano olympics having more than .4ng/ml?

 Someone spiked his steak and chicken imo...

Lol... Got some deadly ken shamrock leglocks and some juice to cycle before the fight

Are you guys implying that steroids are part of the training at "Lions Den"?

Deca is fairly clean, not very strong shit, unless you take a lot of it. It's extremely popular and really easy to get.It's good for your joints but it stays in your system forever, which for an athlete I would think would be highly undesirable
