What is the reason For the Incredible Pump I get when using Anabolic Steroids?
• Answer: The so called “steroid pump” does have an actual physiological explanation. It is mostly due to the fact that there is more blood supply available in the body during a steroid cycle. One of the affects of anabolic steroids is an increased production of red blood cells. That increases blood volume and greatly improves the oxygen carrying ability of blood. Causing an Increase in the efficiency and endurance of skeletal muscle cells. A 200 pound lifter could carry an extra liter of blood during this period. This increased blood volume partially explains why some athletes feel “pumped” all the time while they are on a steroid cycle.
