Proviron Tablets

Proviron (mesterolone) is an interesting anabolic steroid, though it is not of much value to bodybuilding..

It seems that the most common reason for many to consider including it in a steroid stack is for anti-estrogenic activity. In the days before anti-aromatases and the use of SERMs (selective estrogen receptor modulators) such as Clomid and Nolvadex, there was some merit to this. An amount of aromatizing steroid marginally over the amount that would be tolerable without Proviron became tolerable with the inclusion of it.

However, the effect is indeed only marginal, and much better anti-estrogenic agents now exist. When these are used, there is no need for Proviron as an anti-estrogen.

The mechanism by which it has some effectiveness in this regard is from binding weakly to the estrogen receptor without activating it, and to the aromatase enzyme. In the first case, this partially reduces the number of receptor sites momentarily available to bind estrogen, thus reducing estrogenic activity. In the second case, some fraction of aromatase molecules at any given moment are unavailable to bind and convert testosterone, their binding sites being occupied with mesterolone.

The second most common reason is probably to address a fear that libido might be lost without it. It is true that when added to normal androgen levels, Proviron has an androgenic effect that in many cases improves libido. However, most anabolic steroids also have this same property. In a steroid cycle, adding Proviron accomplishes nothing further. Or in the case of anabolic steroids such as nandrolone (Deca) which for other reasons may adversely affect libido, Proviron provides no greater help against that than do various other anabolic steroids.

One of the interesting things about Proviron is that while it assays (tests) as being an effective anabolic in the rat, it is virtually useless for building muscle in man. This may be due to enhanced conversion in muscle tissue to the diol, but it may instead be due to some unknown reason.

Another interesting thing is that it enjoys some practical use as a pro-sexual agent inbetween cycles. Typically 50 mg is taken shortly before improved performance is expected to be useful.

Contrary to common belief, Proviron is somewhat inhibitory of the HPTA. Using it during the recovery phase as part of post-cycle therapy is counterproductive. It is also inadvisable for this reason to use it continuously while intending to be off-cycle, but occasional recreational use presents no problem.

Proviron has been used in female bodybuilding, but it has almost undoubtedly the worst ratio of anabolic effect to virilizing effect of any anabolic steroid in common use. The perceived value is in fat loss and “hardening,” but friendlier choices exist for this. Most of that value is from anti-estrogenic effect, which Nolvadex can also accomplish. And for an androgen component, there are better choices, including Primobolan.

Unlike almost all other orals, Proviron is not hepatotoxic, as it is not 17-alkylated.

Tablets are typically 25 mg, and taken one or two at a time. Amounts greater than this have no further effect on improving libido off-cycle, but if used for a specific occasion, whether on-cycle or off-cycle, may temporarily improve vascularity, if it is already noticeable but has room for improvement.

Tamoxifen (Nolvadex) Tablets

Nolvadex is very comparable to Clomid, behaves in the same manner in all tissues, and is a mixed estrogen agonist/antagonist of the same type as Clomid. The two molecules are also very similar in structure.

It is not correct that Nolvadex reduces levels of estrogen: rather, it blocks estrogen from estrogen receptors and, in those tissues where it is an antagonist, causes the receptor to do nothing.

The claim that Nolvadex reduces gains should not be taken too seriously. The fact is that any number of bodybuilders have made excellent gains while using Nolvadex. The belief that it reduces gains seems to stem from the fact that the scientific literature reports a slight reduction in IGF-1 (individuals using anabolic steroids were not studied though) from use of Nolvadex. Thus, Dan Duchaine reported that it reduces IGF-1 and therefore reduces gains. However, if this effect exists at all, it must be very minor, due to the excellent gains that many have made, and from the fact that no one has noticed any such thing from Clomid, which has the same activity profile.

However, I would not be surprised if one were to tell a steroid user that Clomid reduced his gains, he would immediately become afraid that Clomid reduced his gains (please note that no one I have ever heard of has noticed this.) Not having been so misled, however, he would not conclude this from his results. But if an authority publishes that such an effect occurs, whether it does or not it can become self-fulfilling by biasing the user.

The fact that Nolvadex will reduce water retention may result in the user agreeing that gains are less, since weight gain is less, thus reinforcing the bias.

Clomid Tablets

Clomid is one of the most popular drugs used in post-cycle recovery. With good reason, this drug is very efficient at helping to bring back your natural testosterone levels.

I have used it alone, and with HCG for post cycle recovery with excellent results. Many individuals I have known have also achieved excellent recovery of their natural testosterone levels and vitality with the proper use of clomid.

Clomid is not typically counterfeited. As long as it is in closed foil or in a closed bottle with a seal, the drug is probably real. The funny thing about clomid is that it is so damn expesive in the legitimate world of fertility. Clomid is one of the most popular fertility drugs of all time, specifically for women. Let's talk a little about how this works, and why it helps us as physique athletes.

Clomid is by everyone's definition, an anti-esttrogen. However, many do not realize that clomid itself is an estrogen. That's right, the medical literature lists clomid as a 'weak' estrogen. In a nutshell, clomid binds to the estrogen receptro thereby blocking the true biologically active estrogen, and exerts different effects than the normal estrogen would. Because clomid is a weak estrogen, it does not stimulate the receptor in the same manner, and therefore, does not illicit the same side effects as regular estrogen.

When I say 'regular estroge' I am referring to estradiol-the most potent and active estrogen in human blood and the form most responsible for gynocomastia in men. So, clomid blocks estradiol from doing its thing, and takes the place of it in the estrogen receptor.

Secondly, clomid has a unique ability to stimulate the pituitary to release LH or leutinizing hormone. Theoretically, anything that acts as an anti-estrogen will aid testosterone production by removal of negative feedback (from the excess estrogen on the pituitary and hypothalamus). Individuals often use clomid and nolvadex interchangeagbly within cycles for anti-estrogen purposes. For this purpose, nolvadex is probably a litte more potent (to keep water off, etc). A dosage of 20-40mg will suffice for the nolvadex for this purpose (we will discuss this in the nolvadex section coming soon).

For the purpose of post-cycle recovery of testosterone, clomid is the best. The medical literature has tons of cases of clomid used to illicit ovulation in the female. Who cares about female fertility? Well, listen for a second...the reason clomid works in the female is because of its potent effect on the pituitary gland. As mentioned prior, clomid is very good at stimulating this gland to produce LH in the female (for purposes of ovulation, an LH surge is needed-which clomid stimulates...this is how it works as a fertility drug), but in the male as well. However, in the male (us), clomid stimulates a 'refracted pituitary testicular axis' to re-establish testosterone prouction. What?! If this is getting a little complicated, don't worry. The jist of it all is that the very function of clomid working to stimulate ovualation in the female is directly correlated with its ability to stimulate LH, and thus testosterone prouduction in a male who has had his pituitary cease from producing LH.

LH from the pituitary is one of the firs hormones to be affected by negative feedback. So, taking clomid re-establishes the ability of the pituitary to produce LH and LH stimulates the testicles (via the Leydig cells of the testes) to produce testosterone.

Clomid is best used after a cycle with respect to bringing back test levels. Some individuals feel that taking clomid during the cycel will decrease the amount of negative feedback to the pituitary and their nuts, and their natural testosterone levels will be protected. If this is true at all, it is true only to a slight extent. You will always experience some degree of negative feedback and hormonal shut-down from anabolic steroid use. The type of drug used as well as the dosage and duration come into play with how intensely you are likely to be affected. Heavy androgens used for long periods of time will be most inhibitory to your natural testosterone and will shrink 'da boys' the most. The point is, clomid during a cycle may slightly lessen the degree of inhibition and ball shrinkage, but will not prevent it.

It is wise to begin taking clomid towards the last injection or pill dosage of your cycle. How you use it depends on how sensistive you are to estrogenic side effects. If you are highly sensitive, you should be on an anti-estrogen (other than clomid) during the last week of your cycle. If you are not sensitive to estrogenic side effects, you can begin taking clomid alone immediately after your cycle ends.

Dosage patterns vary greatly in the underground world. Clomid comes in 25 and more commonly 50mg tablets. The traditional advice is for five day loading patterns such as two a day for five days, then one a day for five days. This works well. Clomid has a long active life between 48-72 hours. The drug does not have maximal affect on aiding low testosterone levels until it builds up in the system. Personally I do not like to take two tabs a day , it messes with the sex drive. This is counter-intuitive but the reason why is a whole other conversation. Basically clomid has effects on specific sexual areas of the brain which decrease desire...but don't get freaked...this is usually mild if it even occurs at all and it stops within 2-3 days of stopping clomid. If you are plagued by this relatively rare side effect from clomid, concominant use of proviron at 25mg a day will solve the problem.

The best way to use clomid is to take it for a good 3-4 weeks post-cycle. You will need about 21-30 (50mg) tabs to do this at one tab a day. I would advise taking it at night on an empty stomach with a big glass of water and some ZMA. If you do not know what this is we will discuss it in upcoming pages. There will also be a routine schedule made for optimal post-cycle recovery using all kinds of methods, drugs and even...legal supplements that actually work if you use them correctly. There has been various substances (legal) appearing in various literature over the last year or so that hold much promise at naturally increasing testosterone levels. Much of this has stemmed from the desperation of sports supplment companies to fill the void since the pro-hormones have become illegal in the US (Jan '05).

After 21-30 days on clomid, your natural testosterone should be back to normal or above and 'da boyz' should be back to normal size and function.

Anastrozole (Arimidex) Tablets

Anastrozole (Arimidex) is the aromatase inhibitor of choice. The drug is appropriately used when using substantial amounts of aromatizing steroids, or when one is prone to gynecomastia and using moderate amounts of such steroids. Arimidex does not have the side effects of aminoglutethimide (Cytadren®) and can achieve a high degree of estrogen blockade, much moreso than Cytadren®. It is possible to reduce estrogen too much with Arimidex, and for this reason blood tests, or less preferably salivary tests, should be taken after the first week of use to determine if the dosing is correct.

As an aromatase inhibitor, Arimidex's mechanism of action -- blocking conversion of aromatizable steroids to estrogen -- is in contrast to the mechanism of action of anti-estrogens such as clomiphene (Clomid®) or tamoxifen (Nolvadex®), which block estrogen receptors in some tissues, and activate estrogen receptors in others. During a cycle, if using Arimidex, there is generally no need to use Clomid as well, but (as mentioned in the section on Clomid) there may still be benefits to doing so

Clenbuterol Tablets

                                                              

Clenbuterol is designed to rapidly increase your body’s metabolism. When metabolism occurs, some substances are broken down or synthesized to provide fuel or energy for other processes within the body, and among these substances are carbohydrates, proteins and fats. As your body speeds up metabolism, heat is created. This process is technically referred to as the “genesis of thermal energy” or thermogenesis.

There are a couple of ways your body can achieve thermogenesis. Strenuous exercise can heighten your body’s usage of calories – the measurement of the body’s metabolic rate. Inactive people may use up to only 800 calories a day while others such as those engaged in sports like football can lose up to 5,000 calories per day.

Your diet can also play a vital role in weight loss. If you ingest high cellulose diet (i.e., salad) it would be a big plus to your bodybuilding goal. To digest this type of diet requires it would require a lot of calories to digest, thus more calories are burned or used up to fuel the digestive process.

There is, of course, the use of supplements to promote and hasten weight loss, and Clenbuterol is a prime example of this group of drugs. This drug fulfills far more beneficial effects than mere diet and exercise since it also speeds up aerobic capacity and improves oxygen transport in the body.

To avoid potential health risks, such as the ones mentioned above, Clenbuterol users are advised not to go beyond the recommended dosing and cycling. A daily dose of 40 mcg can yield ideal fat loss. The maximum dosage for women is 120 mcg per day and it is 140 mcg for men.

You can manipulate the dosing of this drug for more effective bodybuilding effects. The general practice is to increase or decrease the dosage gradually every few days (usually 3-4 days). The recommended length of Clenbuterol cycle is 3 weeks. 

Each tablet contains 0.04mg of clenbuterol hydrochloride

Winstrol Tablets

Winstrol is a potent anabolic, but also binds to the progesterone receptor and to LAGS in the liver. In muscle tissue, it has been found to stimulate immediate-early gene expression by a means independent of the AR. Stanozolol can stimulate the production of prostaglandin E2 and the matrix metalloproteases collegenase and stromelysin in skin fibroblasts. It has been found to inhibit growth factor stimulated DNA synthesis and fibroblasts. The drug has substantial fibrinolytic properties, and has been effective in the treatment of urticaria, Raynaud's phenomenon, cryptofibrinogenemia, and lipodermatosclerosis. It has also effected cures of osteonecrosis in cases resistant to all other therapy. Stanozolol has been used successfully in treatment of AIDS wasting syndrome.

This drug is also useful in treatment of hereditary angioedema. It is somewhat hepatotoxic, but less so than many other oral anabolic steroids. It influences some immunological processes. Stanozolol has been found to increase lymphocyte count and CD8+ cell numbers, but to decrease CD4+ and CD3+ in postmenopausal women using it for osteoporosis. This effect would plausibly be useful for treatment of autoimmune disorders.

Each Tablet contains 10 mg of Stanozolol

Stanozolol also lowers lipoprotein (a).

Primobolan 100mg

Primonolan is one of the unique compounds that can be administered either orally or by injection. The only difference in the compounds is the ester attached, the oral version using acetate and the injectable version using enanthate. However regardless of the method of administration or ester used methenolone is considered by most to be a relatively mild compound. For the most part users should not expect to make major gains in muscle mass from this drug but rather lean gains in muscular body weight.

In some animal studies it has been demonstrated that methenolone has the potential to increase muscular size and strength. However the anecdotal evidence from users suggest that any mass gains using the compound will not be overly significant. However it has been noted as quite an effective "cutting" drug because of it's ability to bind to the androgen receptors in the body . Of course the ability to bind to androgen receptors has been shown to promote fat burning in individuals. This effect would obviously be highly desirable during "cutting" phases or to simply limit the amount of body fat one puts on during a bulking phase.

Promonolan does not convert to estrogen and therefore estrogenic side effects should not be a concern with this compound. As well, unlike other oral anabolic steroids it is not 17 alpha alkylated. This means that it is far less stressful to the liver than other oral steroids. However the process that oral methenolone does go through to make it orally active, 1 alkylation and 17-beta esterification, does not protect it during the first pass through the liver very well at all. This requires that the oral version of methenolone must be run at higher doses than would be expected with the injectable version. For this reason it is often said that the injectable version of the drug is far more efficient at producing gains.

In terms of therapeutic/medical use of methenolone, it has been argued by some researchers that it has shown some ability to promote immune system function in AIDS patients. This is different than the anti-muscle wasting properties that some anabolic steroids are used for. In several studies it's been demonstrated that methenolone does not exhibit this capability. However in terms of enhancing immune function this could be attributed to the increased nitrogen retention that methenolone promotes . While this effect alone won't prevent muscle wasting in those suffering from AIDS, it can help to maintain muscle mass in less severe circumstances, such as calorie restricted diets. But despite these advantages methenolone is not approved for any type of medical use in North America.


Use/Dosing

The difference in the dosing that is required for the oral and injectable versions of methenolone, as described earlier, is due to the action of the liver and the fact that the majority of the oral compound will not make it to circulation in the body. Also, due to the differing esters/structures of the compounds the frequency with which a user must administer them is also different. The oral form of methenolone should be administered at least once per day to maintain consistent blood levels of the drug, while the active life of the injectable version of the drug is such that administering it once per week is possible because of the enanthate ester, although splitting the doses to twice per week would provide much more consistent blood levels of the drug.

For the oral version of the compound to be effective most male users of methenolone will need to administer roughly 80 to 150 milligrams per day. This demonstrates truly how much of the drug does not make it past the liver intact. Compare it to the 200 to 400 milligrams per week many users anecdotally report they administer of the injectable version and have good results with. Of course many users will increase dosages beyond these with amounts ranging from 600 to 800 milligrams per week or higher of the injectable compound not being uncommon.

For women that are inexperienced with methenolone doses of the oral version of the drug have anecdotally reported ranging from about 40 to 75 milligrams per day. For the injectable, 50 to 150 milligrams per week should produce very noticeable gains in muscle mass and quality. At these dosages very little in the way of virilizing effects should be experienced by the majority of female users. However as dosages are increased, so is the likelihood that these effects will become evident.

As for the length of time that methenolone can be run, due to the lack of toxicity issues associated with the compound and the relatively mild nature of it in terms of side effects there is little to worry about even if using it for weeks at a time. Liver, kidney or other organ damage should not be a concern for healthy individuals. Suppression of natural testosterone production in males does of course occur, but only the usual protocol of post-cycle therapy is needed to regain this.

Female users have reported that methenolone is quite effective if run alone, however some will stack it with other compounds for an extra anabolic effect. Male users will rarely run methenolone by itself, instead choosing to add it with any number of other potential compounds. This is primarily due to the mild nature of the drug. Used in conjunction with other drugs it can offer several benefits, but alone it will likely leave the user unsatisfied. However anecdotally users report that if used in combination with other compounds it can be effective in "cutting" or "bulking" phases. This is despite the fact that methenolone itself will not result in major gains in muscle mass. It does however help and is quite effective at preserving muscle mass while dieting as well as enhancing the appearance of a user's muscles.


Risks/Side Effects

For the most part, side effects are almost non-existent with methenolone. However due to it being a DHT derived steroid prostate problems and the exacerbation hair loss if a user is prone to male pattern baldness can occur for users of the compound. Many will use ketoconazole and/or finasteride to help with these effects.

Due to the fact that methenolone does not aromatize, estrogenic side effects are of no concern with this compound. This is another reason why it is often utilized by bodybuilders during their pre-contest preparations. Water retention, gynecomastia, and a rise in blood pressure should not occur from use of methenolone. Due to this, there is no need for anti-estrogen or anti-aromatase compounds while cycling this drug. In fact, there is some evidence that methenolone can act as an anti-estrogen itself, much in the same way that drostanolone does. However this effect is weak and should not be relied up for these purposes.

In terms of organ toxicity, methenolone shows no signs that it is capable of causing organ damage in healthy individuals, even at relatively heavy doses. If dosages are kept within reason, there should be little in the way of concern about possible organ damage while using methenolone.

The same can be said for virilizing effects in women. While such things are deepening of the voice, menstrual irregularity, and body/facial hair growth, among others, are definitely possible, they should be minimized if female users do not use the drug to excess. These effects are of course permanent if they do manifest themselves.
