While taking steroids, athletes' strength indicators increase significantly both by enhancing anabolic processes in the body and by reducing catabolic processes. Therefore, training during the AU intake has some features, although, in principle, it does not differ much from non-doping training programs. It is necessary to distinguish two main purposes of using AS and, accordingly, the construction of training programs for these purposes - a "mass-gathering" cycle and training programs for it, as well as a cycle for drying and relief.

During the course, they most often adhere to a linear periodization plan, with a peak before the end of taking medications.

As a rule, the programs on the course are based on the principle of split training. Each muscle is worked out every 4-7 days. You can also include in the training program on the course the elements described in the article: Effective principles of gaining muscle mass. Do not think that when taking steroids, you can relax and train carelessly, and pharma will do everything for you. Do not forget that steroids are only an addition to training and proper nutrition and by themselves will not make you stronger or more massive. There is also no need to go to the other extreme - to train hard. In this case, no doses of AC taken will save you from overtraining. In addition, the increase in muscle strength significantly outstrips the development of the articular ligamentous apparatus, so you need to be extremely careful during exercise so as not to get injured, especially the use of certain steroids weakens joints and ligaments. Usually, various types of weekly splits are used in "mass-gathering" training using AS. For example, 1+1+1+1+1+2 - three training days and four days of rest. Here, the muscles of the body are divided into three groups, and each group trains once a week on its own day. Or split for more advanced 5+2 - five days of training in a row plus two days of rest. Below are several options for training splits.
