Tim Sylvia Steroid Cycle

Tim Sylvia, full name Timothy Deane Sylvia, is a professional MMA fighter who is one of the top veterans in the sport. He has fought in many MMA organizations: UFC, Affliction, Adrenaline MMA, M-1 Global, ONE FC, IFC and others. Not only is he a veteran, but he has some interesting stats, he's 6'8 265lbs., he's a big guy. He has held the UFC heavyweight title 2 times and has had a very long career in MMA, with a total of 42 fights, winning 31, losing 10 and 1 no contest.

The problem is that Tim Sylvia is big but not in shape, always somewhat soft. Therefore, he's always looking for that edge. This, of course, caught up to him, when after UFC 44 (September 2003) he tested positive for winstrol (stanozolol). The test was clear and the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) suspended Tim Sylvia due to steroid use. Interestingly, we have to give a lot of respect to Tim Sylvia, he came out in the open and admitted he used steroids to lean out and lose bodyfat before his fight. He apologized to everyone and clearly stated he was on steroids, no bullshit claims about being innocent – he's a real man. That's something we should respect in a fighter.

Since Tim Sylvia admitted to steroid use and we have a base for his cycle, we can redo it and give you a rough cycle of what steroids he might have taken. It's a bit hard to say what was true in 2003-04, but we'll recreate his cycle based on current products on the market.
