Trestolone Acetate (MENT): 7 alpha-Methyl-19-nortestosterone profile »
Recently there has been a resurgence of interest in Trestolone Acetate (a/k/a 7 alpha-Methyl-19-nortestosterone, or MENT), due to it’s sudden availability thanks to the efforts of several black market hormone suppliers.

Ergogenics: Music »
The ergogenics series continues today, not with a herbal compound or drug, but with music. I regular use my iPod for workouts, and I can attest to improved workouts with it. There really is nothing quite like listening to your favorite song before a heavy set to get you into the right frame of [...]
The world is upside down: male contraceptive pill and female sex drug »
Contraception for woman has been available for decades, and comes in quite a few forms – the pill, the patch, and the coil to name a few.

Caffeine may reduce the risk of developing diabetes »
Like I said last update, this marks the end of Caffeine Week. And this one is just a quickie, mostly because I’m going to briefly discuss a mouse study and I really don’t see the need to go into a ton of detail unless there are humans involved.
Researchers from [...]
Caffeine works better if you expect it to »
This article was actually going to feature as part two to the illusion of caffeine but then I decided to make it its own little update. I know what you’re wondering based on the title, but bear with me as it turns out that your coffee will give you a better kick [...]
The illusion of caffeine »
I never check for updates from the journal of Neuropsychopharmacology, so you (well, I) can thank a recent BBC article for letting me know about this study. It is somewhat relevant not only because it’s officially Coffee Week here at ST, but because it references caffeine tolerance which is apt for [...]
