Welcome back to The Beyond Condition Podcast for a solo episode based on a conversation I had about federation selection and PED use. I have similar conversations to this, pretty much every single week. Creating this episode, I can imagine, could be very useful for our community. Today's episode explores...

'I was thinking of just starting Clen and Anavar'

I hope to bring you more insight into the considerations around PED/ Anabolic use.

Discussions Include:

*The effects that can occur from using Anabolics, outside of the desired physique outcome you are looking for.

*Educating yourself and taking ownership, before making the decision to go down the assisted route.

*How exploring a prep naturally first can help you understand if competitive bodybuilding is the right path for you.

As part of The Beyond Condition Podcast mission it's important to offer a safe space for these discussions, I hope you enjoy listening.

Sarah welcomes Abel Stoel to The Beyond Condition Podcast to share his inspiring and honest story about recovering from anorexia. Abel was diagnosed at age 16, but from age 12 recognised signs of a food disorder. Abel gives insight into how he felt alone from a young age going through school, to then being diagnosed and being admitted several times to a food disorder ward for treatment.

4 years ago Abel attempted suicide and hit rock bottom, from there he knew that if he didn't change his path he would never truly live. In this episode you will hear about the thoughts and feelings that he has been through and how now he has committed to bodybuilding, and even competed at a powerlifting meet!

I am truly honoured to be part of Abel's journey and inspired beyond words.
