Default Does gear deteriorate?

My mate has got some deca and sust which has just gone out of date by about 2 months. he reckons it will be fine as its oil based. Anyone know if it will deteriorate or go bad and do him some harm if he uses it??

Surely these things have a date on them for good reason? It would bother me.

LOL. Can I ask while I remember, as I've been wanting to ask for a long time and keep forgetting. Does the gear make your heart bigger? I've heard it does because it's a muscle which puts me off big time!!

The Cock is nothing more than tissue I was told. If I thought there was any truth in what you said, I'd look like Arnie' next Tuesday.

I expect they add in a buffer to protect themselves. Kinda like dates on food.

I used some out of date sus once and didn't die from it.

Basically the test gets suspended in the oil meaning after say 1yr after use by date the test is no longer test but just oil or maybe instead of 200mg/ml its 20mg/ml and thats all it is.they put use by dates on to protect themselves but gear can be used for a good few months after it but as said after 6 months out ide just buy new stuff

And the heart thing it doesnt make it bigger as such but makes the heart muscle stronger through cardio etc but because its getting stronger etc people feel they can push more and thats when trouble starts heart attack etc so thats why most guys say train the same when on or off gear just try a few more reps or up weight slightly not drasticly i.e bench 100kg normally then few weeks on cycle and try 200kg
