What steroids would work good for a basketball player?

I’ll defer to some of the experts here, but I would certainly have winny in the mix.

You might do well to read up on some of the sticky notes on the profiles.

Also on diet. Is your diet good? A shite diet can **** you up pretty easily imo, whether you’re looking at performance only, or lifting, etc.

I think anavar is the best option since you dont get any water retention, you get only strength and lean mass.. you should do some research about anavar and do lots of reading before you start anything .. also post your diet up in Diet forums

You’d use steroids to gain mass and strength. I’m not sure what kind of speed you mean, if it’s track/running or the power in lifts like the snatch and clean which I’m sure you guys practice. Steroids won’t increase track speed per se but they will give you greater strength which can be "converted" into faster track speed with proper track training. You’ll probably get faster in the snatch and clean faster, but with those it’s the principle, that you have to "convert" strength into power, and there’s also proper technique with having contact with the barbell and not pulling too soon. Drop/dive speed can be developed by working the hamstrings in a flexing exercise like leg curls (RDLs/SLDLs will not develop that).

Jumping and agility are "skill only" so they can’t be improved with steroids really. As far as what steroids to take, I’d advice you to use some steroids that DOES increase water retention. As someone pointed out in a different post, some steroids will make joints dry which is not very good for a baseball player, esp. pitchers. However just because I recommend such a steroid doesn’t mean you should ACTIVELY try to become bloated with water. How bloated a person becomes depends on carbs and salt. I don’t think you actively have to control carb and salt intake any more than just simply avoiding junk food like pizza etc. What I mean is, don’t actively try to cut carbs and salt, just pick good clean food because that doesn’t contain so much salt, and you need carbs to maintain intensity in the gym.

You might want try a simple beginner cycle (500mg test for 12 weeks). It might add some bulk and/or water gain though. You’d probably want to make sure your diet was really clean so you didn’t gain unwanted weight.

Or…I’m just throwing this out there – you could possibly try Halo with only an HRT dose of test. Halo is supposed to be good for adding strength without weight. An HRT dose of test would be neccessary for keeping normal male functioning. I’d definately get a few more opinions before trying this though, because Halo is not a beginner steroid .
