WATCH: Is Viagra Better Than Steroids For Muscle Growth?

Jacob Ladon Staff Writer Generation Ironby Jacob Ladon Updated by GI Team on Nov 15, 2023

Only in bodybuilding could such a question arise.

Every bodybuilder is always looking for the edge in terms of making increased muscle gains. Some people turn to anabolic steroids in order to get the added benefits of recovery and ultimately increased muscle growth. But now there appears that steroids could have some competition in the most unlikely form of viagra.


We all know Viagra has benefiting men in a very specific area. Muscle growth has never been a likely fall out of taking the little blue pill, but it appears that new research may support the idea that taking Viagra could in fact improve muscle growth.

Is there truth to this research or is it simply a case of false reports? Jeff Nippard investigates the findings in his popular Science Explained breakdown.
