So, let's say that I compete in something where there is a very small risk of WADA drug testing, and I use Arimastane (Androsta) to push to for a slightly harder. Do they even test for Arimastane, or what's the deal here? The risk of getting tested is less than 1% btw. Do you guys think it's safe to go for it?

If you are a drug tested athlete, even with a low risk of being tested, I'm just curious why you would pick that particular compound with so much to choose from.
It's impossible for anyone to say it's safe to use, when nobody knows if you will be tested or not. That's all going to come down to whether you are comfortable with that risk for the reward.

^ Usually if you compete in any faction that would test using WADA guidelines you would have a well paid doctor and specialist that would advise you as to when and which compound to utilize for your specific situation.
The reason for asking is that Arimastane is the only completly legal (for the time being) efficient aromatase inhibitor where I live, where pretty much everthing else is classed as pharmaceuticals or illegal.
I guess I should rephrase my question: do WADA even test for Arimastane? Then certainly do not test for everything on their list every time, do they?
The healthcare where I live is almost all ran by the government, and it's impossible to ask doctors these kinds of question without having the police knocking within a week.
Thanks for all the answers btw!
