AAS effects on reflexes/reaction time?

[iLiftForMe]

Title says it all. I've spent some time looking it up and haven't found anything concrete. If anyone can link any studies or just personal experience as to wether their reaction time increased while they were on cycle would be appreciated!

Currently into amateur MMA and was wondering if it will have an impact on my speed/reaction times. (Main reason for using isn't MMA, I'm into powerlifting)

I doubt you will find any serious studies on an illegal substance doing things like this...but....its a safe bet that if guys using aas and playing baseball can hit a 95 mph fastball easier and farther...that the reaction time etc is better wouldnt you say?

Haha interesting thoughts, I think AAS are used quite secretly by a lot of athletes so would definitely make it harder to monitor the effects, especially since speed athletes rather than body builders would be even more secretive about their use since it gives a strong advantage in competitive sports, whereas in body building you pretty much have to be using to compete at a top level. When you say this though it brings Bruce Lee into mind, apparently he used and well, look at his speed/explosive power.

depends on what you are using and your goal. if you are bulking and taking dbol, for instance, you will be much heavier, and your speed/agility MAY go down...depending on how you train.

I actually have noticed increased reflexes on cycle whether it be test and deca, or really any compound. An example is the other day, some guy pushed me as a joke from behind and within a second, I turned around and slammed him against the wall. It was a reaction because I didn't even have time to think.
