description

As exhaustive reviews concerning hormonal alteration (Bunt 1986) and lipid metabolism (Goldberg & Elliot 1987; Hurley & Kokkinos 1987) during normal physical exercise and training have recently been published in the Journal, this article is designed to focus only on the biological actions of synthetic anabolic-androgenic steroids on endocrinology and lipid metabolism and the interactions between both of these during training in adult male athletes.
