: : About 6 months ago I was doing a bicep curl and,: on the down stroke, heard and felt one of my biceps: tear. It turned out to be a ligament that tore away: from my forearm. A week later, I had surgery: to re-attach the muscle and it seems to have healed: very well.: I'd like to get back into lifting again and: I was wondering if there is an AS that is especially: good for making ligaments stronger?Unfortunatly, AS hit muscle much better than connective tissue. In fact, there are studies that show AS abuse could lead to aberant collage fiber orientation causing the tendon to become weaker. Although deca is thought to relieve tendon pain thats because it accumulates water around the tendon, not because its making the tendon any stronger. Powerlifters sometime cycle growth to improve tendon strength. If you don't want to go that way, I would go easy on the AS until the tendon is 100%. Good luck.: Thanks for any info!
I've heard that laurabolin is pretty good for your joints but im not sure, you might investigate
