PLacebo effect?

[SlimeyPete]

OK, I don't mean taking water pills or injecting sesame oil thinking its steriods...

but has anyone noticed a placebo effect from taking steriods? Aside from the actual real physical effects, before they really impact you....maybe in the first week your workouts feel better, you are in a better frame of mind, slightly more in tune with what you are doing,maybe push a lil harder than usual(even if its really hard normally) and have you noticed it bleed over into other things you do?

I noticed that with work, and just house chores in general I am chippy and cheery and more focused...I even smile brushing my teeth and goes as far as to diligently wash behind the ole ears.

I started my cycle yesterday and totally agree with you. My workout yesterday was super intense, I feel better all around, and it makes me even more dilligent about my diet, training, water intake, etc. I just think there is a lot of synergy at play when you cycle.

Placebo effects will take place with ALL drugs if the user thinks he is using a drug. YES you could be taking a sugar pill or sesame oil and you will get results.

The brain is a power thing - it has been proven time and time again. This is why double blind studies came into play - b/c of the placebo effect.
