No doubt that anabolic steroids are very effective drugs, which are widely used in sports. However, you should avoid some of the most common mistakes when using them in order to achieve the desired results. One of the major mistake is not following the age indications and contraindications for the use of steroids. Using steroids at a young age – up to 25 years old - can lead to premature closure of the sprout zones, as well as destabilization of developiong of the endocrine system. Individual characteristics of the organism should be taken into consideration, since the body development can be already over at 25 years old for some people.

You should be careful with the dosage of anabolic steroids, because their excess is another common mistake. Larger doses of steroids can cause a number of side effects, and the anabolic effect often begins to decline. The liver is effected, in the first place, by excessive doses of substances. In addition, violation of dosages of anabolic steroids can cause hypertrophy of some of the internal secretion glands and an excessive increase in basal metabolic rate.

Ignoring the principle steroid cycles is also considered a serious mistake that results in serious consequences. Prolonged use of anabolic steroids reduces their effectiveness, along with the increase in the number of side effects. A steroid cycle should not last more then one - two month in order to not cause serious harm to your body.

Not following a proper diet while using anabolic steroids is also among the most common mistakes. Please note that use of any steroid significantly increases the need of the human body for nutrients, particularly in proteins. Insufficient amount of protein in the diet does not allow to realize the full potential, therefore an adequate protein diet should be a high priority for an athlete who uses stanozolol, danabol and other similar substances.

The use of testosterone products also increases the body's need for minerals and vitamins, which is not possible to meet with only a balanced diet. Therefore, it is recommended to use synthetic multivitamin-mineral complexes that are able to compensate for a deficiency of vitamins and minerals while using anabolic steroids.
