Proviron Tablets

2010-08-29T23:20:00.001+08:00

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.

Mesterolone is the chemical name of active ingredient in Proviron. Proviron was a registered trademark of Schering AG in the United States and/or other countries prior to cancellation.

Tamoxifen (Nolvadex) Tablets

2010-08-29T23:16:00.002+08:00

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.

Tamoxifen citrate is the chemical name of active ingredient in Nolvadex. Nolvadex is a registered trademark of AstraZeneca UK Limited in the United States and/or other countries.

Clomid Tablets

2010-08-29T22:41:00.006+08:00

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

2010-08-29T03:35:00.005+08:00

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

2010-08-29T03:17:00.005+08:00

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.

Winstrol Tablets

2010-08-29T02:52:00.006+08:00

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

2010-05-02T01:03:00.003+08:00

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.

Boldenone 200mg

2010-05-02T00:30:00.004+08:00

Equipoise is a derivative of testosterone, which exhibits strong anabolic and moderately androgenic properties. In common with all steroids, Equipoise increases red blood cell production, which in turn leads to increases in stamina due to an improvement in oxygen uptake. It is also known to increase vascularity, which makes it a favorite when it comes to contest preparation. However, the downside of its use in pre-contest situations is that it does tend to produce an increased appetite in a high percentage of users.

The good news is that Equipoise produces very little in the way of estrogen related side effects. In fact its actual rate of estrogen conversion is half that of the various testosterones. Of course some sensitive individuals may still experience estrogenic effects (or those using extremely high doses). In this case the addition of Nolvadex should be considered – with Arimadex being a stronger option.

Although it is not known as a rapid mass builder, Equipoise will produce slow but steady gains in strength and quality muscle. Due to this slow and steady result pattern, Equipoise is most commonly used for longer cycles of at least ten weeks. This would ensure solid muscle gains with very low water retention. Gains with Equipoise are also easily maintained following use since size increases are not due to water weight

Equipoise is an extremely versatile drug and, as such, combines very well with other steroids. An example of a great mass building stack would be 300-400mg/week of Equipoise with 500mg of Sustanon or Testosterone Enthanate. For mass building purposes it can also be effectively stacked with Anadrol. This would result in significant gains in strength and mass without the additional side effects that would result from using the androgen alone.

In terms of its use as part of a steroids cutting cycle, Equipoise combines very well with non-aromatizable steroids such as Trenbolone acetate or Winstrol. However, even the extremely low aromatization rate of these substances may be enough to confine usage to bulking cycles only.

As a side note, those who usually favor Deca Durabolin may want to give Equipoise a try since for most people it proves to be stronger as well as safer and less suppressive. I say ‘most people” because there are always going to be individuals who, due to their unique chemistry, may have a different experience with its use.

Side effects from the use of Equipoise are pretty low when it is taken in normal (300-400mg/week) dosages and estrogenic side effects only occur in those who are very susceptible to estrogen. In terms of androgenic side effects, long term or high dose use can result in slight virilizing effects including acne and increased body hair growth. Also worth noting is that Equipoise is not the ideal choice for the drug tested athlete since it has the tendency to produce detectable metabolites in the urine months after use.

The use of 300-400mg/week is normally recommended when it comes to Equipoise use. There have been reports of users ‘front-loading’ it to achieve greater results. This would involve the use of high doses of 600-800mg/week for two weeks and then lowering the dose to 300-400mg/week for the remaining 8-10 weeks.

Testosterone propionate 100mg

2010-05-02T00:21:00.004+08:00

Testosterone propionate is a commonly manufactured, oil-based injectable testosterone compound. The added propionate ester will slow the rate in which the steroid is released from the injection site, but only for a few days. Testosterone propionate is therefore comparatively much faster acting than other testosterone esters such as cypionate or enanthate, and requires a much more frequent dosing schedule. While cypionate and enanthate are injected on a weekly basis, propionate is generally administered (at least) every third day. Figure one illustrates a typical release pattern after injection. As you can see, levels peak and begin declining quickly with this ester of testosterone. To make this drug even more uncomfortable to use, the propionate ester can be very irritating to the site of injection. In fact, many sensitive individuals choose to stay away from this steroid completely, their body reacting with a pronounced soreness and low-grade fever that may last for a few days. Even the mild soreness that is experienced by most users can be quite uncomfortable, especially when taking multiple pharmacokinetics of Testosterone propionate injections each week. The "standard" esters like in ection enanthate and cypionate, which are clearly easier to use, are therefore much more popular among athletes.

Those who are not bothered by frequent injections will find that propionate is quite an effective steroid. It is of course a powerful mass drug, capable of producing rapid gains in size and strength. At the same time the buildup of estrogen and DHT (dihydrotestosterone) will be pronounced, so typical testosterone side effects are to be expected. Some do consider propionate to be the mildest testosterone ester, and the preferred form of this hormone for dieting/cutting phases of training. Some will go so far as to say that propionate will harden the physique, while giving the user less water and fat retention than one typically expects to see with a testosterone. Realistically however, this is nonsense. The ester is removed before testosterone is active in the body, and likewise the ester cannot alter the activity of the parent steroid in any way, only slow its release. We can say that propionate might be the favored testosterone among female bodybuilders (for those who insist on testosterone use!), as blood levels are easier to control with it compared to other esters. Should virilization symptoms develop, one would not wish to wait the weeks needed for testosterone concentrations to fall after a shot of enanthate for example.

During a typical cycle one will see action that is consistent with a testosterone. Users sensitive to gynecomastia may therefore need to addition an antiestrogen. Those particularly troubled may find that a combination of Nolvadex® and Proviron® works especially well at preventing/halting this occurrence. Also unavoidable with a testosterone are androgenic side effects like oily skin, acne, increased aggression and body/facial hair growth. Those who may have a predisposition for male pattern baldness may also find that propionate will aggravate this condition. To help combat this we also have the option of adding Propecia®/Proscar®, which will reduce the buildup of DHT in many androgen target tissues. This will help minimize related side effects (particularly hair loss) although it offers us no guarantees. And as with all testosterone . products, propionate will also suppress endogenous testosterone production. The use of a testosterone stimulating drug like HCG and/or Clomid® is therefore almost a requirement in order to avoid enduring a post-cycle crash.

The most common dosage schedule for this compound (men) is to inject 50 to 100mg, every 2"d or 3`d day. As with the more popular esters, the total weekly dosage would be in the range of 200-400mg. As with all testosterone compounds, this drug is most appropriately suited for bulking phases of training. Here it is most often combined with other strong agents such as Dianabol, Anadrol 50® or Deca-Durabolin®, combinations that prove to be quite formidable. Propionate however is sometimes also used with nonaromatizing anabolics/androgens during cutting or dieting phases of training, a time when its' fast action and androgenic nature are also appreciated. Popular stacks include a moderate dosage of propionate with an oral anabolic like Winstrol® (15-35 mg daily), Primobolan® (50-150mg daily) or anavar (15-30mg daily). Provided the body fat percentage is sufficiently low, the look of dense muscularity can be notably improved (barring any excess estrogen buildup from the testosterone). We can further add a non-aromatizing androgen like trenbolone or Halotestin®, which should have an even more extreme effect on subcutaneous body fat and muscle hardness. Of course with the added androgen content any related side effects will become much more pronounced.

Women who absolutely must use an injectable testosterone should only use this preparation. The dosage schedule should also be more spread out for a female bodybuilder, with injections coming every 5 to 7 days. The dosage obviously would be lower as well, generally in the range of 25mg to 50mg per injection. Androgenic activity should be less pronounced with this schedule, giving blood levels time to sufficiently decrease before the drug is administered again. In order to further reduce any risks, the duration of this cycle should not exceed 8 weeks. Should a stronger anabolic effect be needed, a small amount of Durabolin® (Deca-Durabolin® if unavailable), Anavar or Winstrol® could be added. Of course the risk of noticing virilizing effects from these drugs may increase, even with the addition of a mild anabolic. Since many of the masculinizing side effects of steroid use can be irreversible, it is very important for the female athlete to monitor the dosage, duration and incidence of side effects very closely.

Deca Durabolin 300mg

2010-04-04T00:11:00.012+08:00

Deca Durabolin 300

Deca is the most widely used anabolic steroid. It is easy on the liver and promotes good size and strength gains while reducing body fat.

How To Use Deca-Durabolin
Deca-Durabolin causes the muscle cell to store more nitrogen than it releases so that a positive nitrogen balance is achieved. A positive nitrogen balance is synonymous with muscle growth since the muscle cell, in this phase, assimilates (accumulates) a larger amount of protein than usual. The same manufacturer, however, points out on the package insert that a positive nitrogen balance and the protein building effect that accompany it will occur only if enough calories and proteins are supplied. The highly anabolic effect of Deca-Durabolin is linked to a moderately androgenic component, so that a good gain in muscle mass and strength is obtained. At the same time, most athletes notice considerable water retention which, no doubt, is not as distinct as that with injectable testosterones but which in high doses can also cause a smooth and watery appearance.

Since Deca-Durabolin also stores more water in the connective tissues, it can temporarily case or even cure existing pain in joints. This is especially good for those athletes who complain about pain in the shoulder, elbow, and knee; they can often enjoy pain-free workouts during treatment with Deca-Durabolin. Athletes use Deca-Durabolin, depending on their needs, for muscle buildup and in preparation for a competition.

Deca-Durabolin is suitable, even above average, to develop muscle mass since it promotes the protein synthesis and simultaneously leads to water retention. The optimal dose for this purpose lies between 200 and 600mg/week. Scientific research has shown that best results can be obtained by the intake of 2 mg/pound body weight. Those who take a dose of less than 200 mg/week will usually feel only a very light anabolic effect which, however, increases with a higher dosage. Steroid novices usually need only 200 mg/week. Deca-Durabolin works very well for muscle buildup when combined with Dianabol and Testosterone. The famous Dianabol/Deca-Durabolin stack results in a fast and strong gain in muscle mass. Most athletes usually take 15-40 mg Dianabol/day and 200-400 mg Deca-Durabolin/week. Even faster results can be achieved with 400 mg Deca-Durabolin/week and 500 mg Sustanon/week. Deca is a good basic steroid which, for muscle buildup, can be combined with many other steroids.

Winstrol

2010-04-03T23:54:00.004+08:00

Winstrol is a steroid compound that is available as both an oral and injectable. It is most often used as cutting agent because it doesnt produce huge weight gains and it also reverses some of the bloated look of testosterone and replaces it with a dry look
The usual dosage for men is 35-75mg per day for the tablets and 25-50mg per day with the injectable version. It is often combined with other steroids depending on the desired result. For bulking purposes, a stronger androgen like testosterone, Dianabol or Anadrol is usually added. Here Winstrol will balance out the cycle a bit, giving us good anabolic effect with lower overall estrogenic activity than if taking such steroids alone. The result should be a considerable gain in new muscle mass, with a more comfortable level of water and fat retention. For cutting phases Winstrol can be combined with a non-aromatizing androgen such as trenbolone or Halotestin. Such combinations should help bring about the strongly defined, hard look of muscularity so sought after among bodybuilders. Older, more sensitive individuals can add compounds like Primobolan, Deca-Durabolin or Equipoise when wishing to stack this steroid. Here they should see good results and fewer side effects than with standard androgen therapies

Trenbolone enanthate 200mg

2010-03-29T02:22:00.009+08:00

Trenbolone enanthate (17beta-Hydroxyestra-4,9,11-trien-3-one) Tren 200 is a long-acting injectable steroid with a great effect on protein metabolism. Trenbolone is one of the best effective anabolic compounds, promoting protein synthesis, as well as creating a positive nitrogen balance. It is an appetite stimulant and improves the conversion of proteins. In laboratory tests, it has been demonstrated that trenbolone increases protein and decreases fat deposition. It has proven to be an excellent product for promoting size and strength in the presence of adequate protein and calories, promotes body tissue building processes, and can reverse catabolism. Due to its particular ester, trenbolone enanthate is slower-acting than trenbolone acetate and faster acting than trenbolone hexahydrobenzylcarbonate. Based on its molecular structure, trenabol enanthate is theoretically stronger than either trenbolone acetate or trenbolone hexahydrobenzylcarbonate.Anyway, clearly the long estered Tren is a viable compound for those who wish to make minimal injections, and still use a nice lean-mass providing, non-aromatizing anabolic.

Trenbolone is a very potent androgen with strong anabolic activity. It is well suited for the rapid buildup of strength and muscle mass, usually providing the user exceptional results in a relatively short time period. The anabolic effect of this drug is often compared to popular bulking agents such as testosterone or Dianabol, with one very important difference. Trenbolone does not convert to estrogen. This is indeed a very unique compound since mass drugs, almost as a rule, will aromatize (or cause other estrogen related troubles) heavily. When we think of taking milder (regarding estrogen) steroids we usually expect much weaker muscle growth, but not so with Trenbolone. Here we do not have to worry about estrogen related side effects, yet still have an extremely potent mass/strength drug. There is no noticeable water retention, so the mass gained during a cycle of Trenbolone will be very hard and defined (providing fat levels are low enough). Gynecomastia is also not much of a concern, so there shouldn’t be any need to addition an anti-estrogen if trenbolone is the only steroid administered.

The high androgen level resulting from this steroid, in the absence is excess estrogen, can also accelerate the burning of body fat. The result should be a much tighter physique, hopefully without the need for extreme dieting. Trenbolone can therefore help bring about an incredibly hard, ripped physique and is an ideal product for competitive bodybuilders.

Trenbolone is notably more potent than testosterone, and has an effect that is as much as three times as strong on a milligram for milligram basis. Likewise we can expect to see some level of androgenic side effects with use of this compound. Oily skin, aggressive behavior, acne and hair loss are therefore not uncommon during a cycle with this steroid. The androgenic nature of this drug of course makes it a very risky item for women to use, the chance for virilization symptoms extremely high with such a potent androgen.

Trenbolone is also much more potent than testosterone at suppressing endogenous androgen production. This makes clear the fact that estrogen is not the only culprit with negative feedback inhibition, as here there is no buildup of this hormone to report here. There is however some activity as a progestin inherent in this compound, as trenbolone is a 19-nortestosterone (nandrolone) derivative (a trait characteristic of these compounds). However it seems likely that much of its suppressive nature still stems from its powerful androgen action. With the strong impact trenbolone has on endogenous testosterone, of course the use of a stimulating drug such as HCG and/or Clomid/Nolvadex is recommended when concluding steroid therapy (a combination is preferred). Without their use it may take a prolonged period of time for the hormonal balance to resume, as the testes may at first not be able to normally respond to the resumed output of endogenous gonadotropins due to an atrophied state. Those who have used Trenbolone regularly would often claim it to be indispensable. A daily dosage of 37.5-75 mg is the most popular range when running a cycle. While Trenbolone is quite potent when used alone, it was generally combined with other steroids for an even greater effect. During a cutting phase one could add a non-aromatizing anabolic such as Winstrol or Primobolan. Such combinations will elicit a greater level density and hardness to the muscle. One could also bulk with this drug, with the addition of stronger compounds like Dianabol or Testosterone. While the mass gain would be quite formidable with such a stack, some level of water retention would probably also accompany it. Moderately effective anabolics such Deca-Durabolin or Equipoise would be somewhat of a halfway point, providing extra strength and mass but without the same level of water bloat we see with more readily aromatized steroids.

Creatine-Blend

CHAMPION NUTRITION Adrenol 8
FAVOR : GRAPE
S$63.80

Nitric Oxide Pre-Workout Formula

Accelerated Creatine Absorption
Muscle Volumizing Nitro Blend
Growth & Recovery BCAAs
Increased Strength Output

ADRENOL8 is your one stop pre-workout solution. ADRENOL8 tops every other product in the market with its state-of-the-art line up of ingredients, its quality, and its taste. Champion Nutrition’s ADRENOL8 is not "kid-stuff", so be careful with it. ADRENOL8 is for competitive bodybuilders and serious strength athletes. It contains maximal amounts of the most effective performance-enhancing ingredients.

Arginine-AKG and Arginine Pyroglutamate
The verdict is in on NO. Arginine-AKG and arginine pyroglutamate work the best. But there is more to a big muscular pump than just NO, and ADRENOL8 has that too. With enhanced potassium transporters and beta-oxidation inducers, your only decision will be which direction to spray your subcutaneous fat when your skin rips open! No joke—when testing this product we had to stop training at times because our arms were just too pumped to continue.

Dicreatine Malate and Creatine Monohydrate
After a flood of new creatine products in the last few years, research has finally shown what works and what is junk. Dicreatine malate, even though it is less soluble than some other creatine compounds, is absorbed more quickly. Bottom line—you get stronger, faster. Plus, the inclusion of pure creatine monohydrate follows up over a longer period of time, so you get the best of both worlds.

Transport Enhancers
Creatine is tough to absorb and a lot of the creatine athletes consume just goes to waste. That’s why many pre-workout products contain ingredients to improve the uptake of creatine into muscle tissue. Cinnamon extracts are the newest in this category. They are also the most expensive, so you may not find it in the heavily advertised "kid-stuff" pre-workout products.

Beta-Alanine
Shown to improve stamina at peak output by almost 10%, beta-alanine is one of the most exciting products to come along in years. Its effects multiply the effects of creatine, although it works through an entirely different mechanism. Beta-alanine is like creatine in the sense that it must accumulate in muscle over time, but within a week or two you will notice that you can do more sets before fatiguing, support more weight for longer sets, and recover faster after the hardest workouts of your life! Beta-alanine, like niacin, causes a tingling sensation on the skin the first few times you take it, so be warned.

Branched-Chain Aminos
BCAA’s are the holy grail of recovery. They reduce muscle breakdown, increase muscle synthesis, and shorten recovery time. And ADRENOL8 contains levels that are shown to produce results. You won’t find this level of BCAA’s in just any cheap pre-workout drink because BCAA’s are expensive. And if you aren’t getting BCAA’s in your workout, you are missing out on your maximum muscle growth.

Creatine Monohydrate Powder

2009-12-11T03:19:00.012+08:00

AST SPORTS SCIENCE CREATINE MONOHYDRATE

S$61.20 (1000g)

• Increases Muscle Torque
• Increases Muscle Cell Volume
• Increases Muscle Energy
• Increases Muscle Strength
• Increases Muscle Endurance
• Enhances Recovery

As you may or may not know, creatine monohydrate will not fully dissolve in liquid. That's why you always get that gritty sand at the bottom of the glass. Look at it this way, if it falls like sand to the bottom of your glass what does it do in your stomach? Maybe that explains why so many complain of stomach discomfort when using regular creatine monohydrate.

New "Micronized" Creatine
With AST's constant commitment to improve the effectiveness of sports supplementation we have developed a new creatine supplement that incorporates state-of-the-art particle micronizing technology (PMTTM).

This technology sets a new standard for creatine monohydrate supplementation by actually producing creatine 'micro-particles' that are 20 times smaller than regular creatine powder.

Micronized creatine has numerous advantages over regular creatine monohydrate.

Faster Absorption
AST Micronized Creatine's smaller particle size means quicker digestion and faster utilization.

More Efficient
20 times more total surface area for greater uptake into the bloodstream.

Greater Purity
Micronizing creatine produces a more pure creatine. By increasing the total processing steps and purification procedures, AST's Micronized Creatine yields a finished product substantially more pure. Test it. We challenge you.

Mixes Easier and Better
AST's Micronized Creatine has 20 times more surface area. Greater service area means easier, faster and more complete mixing.

No Stomach Upset
Regular creatine monohydrate sits in the gut longer. This causes discomfort to many users. AST's Micronized Creatine goes into solution better and leaves the gut quicker causing no stomach upset.

Better Results
New Micronized Creatine offers 2000% more particle surface area for better utilization, better uptake, and faster results.

Drink Plenty of Liquids!
Creatine works by enhancing muscle cell hydration. It is very important to consume adequate fluids while taking creatine to see best results. A good rule of thumb is to drink an EXTRA 16 to 20 ounces of liquid for every 5 grams of creatine you take. During your Loading Phase you should be drinking an EXTRA 64 to 80 ounces of liquid than you normally drink. During the maintenance phase you should drink an EXTRA 32 to 40 ounces. This is very important and ensures you get the maximum out of creatine supplementation.

Q: What exactly is AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine?
A: AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine is a unique new creatine monohydrate that is manufactured using state-of-the-art particle micronizing technology - PMTTM. With this new technology we are able to actually make each tiny creatine particle 20 times smaller than typical creatine powder. Smaller particle size means more total surface area for quicker and more efficient creatine absorption.

AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine mixes easier and stays in solution. Regular creatine powder drops to the bottom of the glass even before you are finished stirring.

Once you try AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine and see how well it works you'll never want to use regular creatine powder again.

Q: How is AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine better than regular creatine?
A: AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine is designed so that it is utilized better and more efficiently. The micro-particle size allows for quicker absorption and better utilization.

A simple analogy would be like chewing food. If you only chew your food a few times it will be much harder for your digestive system to handle and fully utilize the nutrients. However, if you chew your food thoroughly before swallowing then your digestive system has no problem digesting and utilizing all the nutrients the food has to offer.

The same applies with AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine. It's 20 times smaller than regular creatine and therefore much easier and faster absorbed and utilized.

Our new micronized technology also yields a more pure raw material due to the extra purification steps involved in the process.

Q: Creatine gives me a stomach ache, will AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine upset my stomach too?
A: That's the problem some people experience with regular creatine. Because of the large particle size of regular creatine some people can't digest it very well. It tends to sit in the gut longer than it should. This causes mild stomach discomfort and also yields poor results due to sub-optimal absorption.

AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine solves this problem. It gets into the bloodstream quickly and efficiently with no stomach upset. This means better results - faster and with no discomfort - GUARANTEED!

Q: Are there any side effects with AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine?
A: Taken as directed, AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine exhibits no negative side effects. You will, however, see a marked increase in strength and lean muscle gains when combined with an intense weight training program.

Q: Will AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine make me stronger?
A: Yes! When combined with resistance training, AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine will help you increase strength and lean muscle mass.

AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine is non-caloric and will not increase fat accumulation.

Q: How much muscle will I gain with AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine?
A: There is no accurate answer to this. There are too many other factors involved that effect muscle growth. Creatine increases cell volume by increasing the fluid holding capacity of the muscle cell. This increases muscle weight, size and strength as well as long term muscle accrual. You will see an increase in strength and size in a relatively short period of time. Some have reported as much as 10 pounds in 2 weeks. This is exceptional but certainly possible.

Q: I'm a bicycle racer, will AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine help me with speed and endurance?
A: Contrary to what most think, AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine will help increase speed and endurance. A recent study showed creatine supplementation delayed fatigue in repeated bouts of sprint running.¹

Another recent study improved the time of intense running to exhaustion by 13%.² This study concluded,
"...that creatine supplementation helps to prolong the time during which the maximal rate of power output could be maintained".
Though first thought to be only beneficial to strength athletes, studies are beginning to uncover very significant improvements in endurance athletes as well. It's no secret that 95% of the Tour de France competitors use creatine to enhance performance. The AST Sports Science Bicycle Racing Team has benefited tremendously from Micronized Creatine.

Q: Do I need to cycle AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine?
A: Some people like to cycle creatine. However, there is no research that concludes whether or not it's beneficial to cycle creatine. If you feel the need to cycle creatine I recommend taking it for 12 weeks and then cycle off for 4 weeks.

When you resume taking creatine you will have to follow the loading procedure again.

Q: Your Micronized Creatine is awesome! How do you get it so white? It makes the other brands look crude by comparison.
A: The new AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine is really a major advancement in creatine development. This advancement is not just because of the increased efficiency the micronization brings but there is also an increase in purity as well. The extra processing involves several more purifying steps that yields the purest creatine you can put in your body. And we guarantee it. This is why AST Sports Science Micronized Creatine is a brilliant white in appearance.

Purity is very important. Some may think there is not much difference in 99.9% purity and 98% but there is a big difference. What is that other 1.9%? Impurities! Impurities that could be doing some hidden damage to your system compromising the results you get and most importantly your health.

Your body is an elaborate machine. It can handle a certain amount of toxins but over time these toxins can be very harmful and impede intricate processes hampering your body's potential to perform optimally.

• Pharmaceutical Grade

Available sizes: 454g or 1000g containers

Professional and amateur athletes know this. That is why many of them use and recommend taking a creatine supplement. For this reason, creatine has become one of the most popular supplements of all time and has become an essential part in a growing number of strength and conditioning programs.

Get the most from your muscles.Are you strong enough? Are you fast enough? Do you look in the mirror and see a body that could be bigger? Have you hit a plateau with your training? You can quickly gain more size and strength naturally with 100% pure pharmaceutical grade creatine monohydrate. Power Creatine can maximize your athletic performance by raising the level of ergogenic creatine in your muscles.

Creatine is an essential compound in the body’s anaerobic energy cycle. It serves as a "shuttle" that directly provides the energy for intense muscular contraction. If creatine is not present in sufficient amounts, energy for intense exertion is both low and slower to recover. Supplementing with POWER CREATINE™ helps increase available muscular energy for that set of squats, or that sprint, or that jump, and so on. Likewise, creatine will enable quicker recovery for that next effort, just seconds away.

It recycles the compound (ATP - from ADP) that directly provides the energy for intense muscular contraction. If creatine is not present in sufficient amounts, energy for intense exertion is both low and slower to recover. Supplementation of creatine increases available muscular energy for that set of squats, or that sprint, or that jump, or that play, or that swing, and so on. Likewise, creatine will enable quicker recovery for that next effort, just seconds away. The result is that you get stronger, bigger, and quicker.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How does creatine work?
A. Once creatine is absorbed into muscle it undergoes a reaction that converts it to creatine phosphate, the high-energy compound that promotes increase strength. It is in this form that the body uses creatine to regenerate ATP once it has been used in muscle contraction.

Q. Will the use of creatine for extended periods of time be harmful?
A. Anything in excess has the potential to be harmful. Creatine is no exception. That is why we recommend that you cycle the use of creatine from loading phase to maintenance phase, then take 2 weeks off and restart in the maintenance phase.

Fiber Matrix: Fiber has been added to True Mass in order to support better gastrointestinal health.

MCT's (Medium Chain Triglycerides), and EFA's (Essential Fatty Acids): The EFA’s found within the True Mass complex address essential fatty acid needs. MCT’s greatly enhance and promote the oxidation (”burning”) of fat over carbohydrate and suppress appetite.

FAQ's

Q: I noticed that there are 5 grams of fiber in each serving of TRUE-MASS®. Why?
A: The fiber matrix included in TRUE-MASS® supports gastrointestinal health. When consumed and ultimately digested by the body, fiber acts to increase the surface area that the body can absorb nutrients across, which increases nutrient uptake and utilization. The fiber in TRUE-MASS® also contributes to the sustained release aspect of the formula.

Q: Why is there so much cholesterol in TRUE-MASS®?
A: The 110 mg of cholesterol found in TRUE-MASS® is the product of (1) the specific proteins contained within the blend and (2) the sunflower oil and medium chain triglycerides (MCT’s). It’s important to understand that there are two types of cholesterol, High Density Lipoproteins (HDL), typically referred to as the “Good” cholesterol, and Low Density Lipoproteins (LDL), typically referred to as the “Bad” cholesterol. Sources of HDL cholesterol like fish and vegetable oils (unsaturated fats) have been found to raise HDL levels, while sources of bad cholesterol like the high saturated fat content found in red meat, certain cheese and palm oil tend to raise LDL levels. The fats contained in TRUE-MASS® are predominantly of the unsaturated variety, originating from sunflower oil and medium chain triglycerides. In fact, you’ll notice that each serving of TRUE-MASS® contains only 5 grams of actual saturated fat. Regardless of that, if you do suffer from high cholesterol levels, you must check with your primary care physician first before starting supplementation with TRUE-MASS® and engaging in an exercise program. Your physician will be able to offer the best advice as to whether or not TRUE-MASS® has a place in your diet.

Q: What percent of the recommended daily values of the antioxidant Vitamins A, C and E does TRUE-MASS® contain per serving?
A: TRUE-MASS® contains 100% of the recommended daily value for no less than 21 vitamins and minerals, which includes Vitamins A, C and E.

Q: I am lactose-intolerant. Can I take TRUE-MASS®?
A: 5 of the 6 proteins contained in TRUE-MASS® are milk based; therefore, there is a degree of lactose in the product. Given your lactose intolerance condition, whether or not you can consume TRUE-MASS® is a question best answered by your primary care physician. He or she will be able to assess the level of your lactose intolerance and make a recommendation. We have gotten feedback from lactose intolerant individuals who consume TRUE-MASS®, some of whom feel no discomfort, and others who just simply need to take a lactase enzyme 30 minutes prior to consumption. Again though, regardless of that, please check with your primary care physician prior to consuming TRUE-MASS® if you are lactose intolerant.

Q: I cannot seem to find the amino acid profile for TRUE-MASS® anywhere on the label. Can you supply this information?
A: Unfortunately, we cannot release the exact amino acid profile found within TRUE-MASS®, owing to the fact that the blend is proprietary and protected. By releasing this amino acid breakdown, we would be potentially opening the door to competitors copying the ratios and attempting to mimic the TRUE-MASS formula. If you have a specific question regarding a particular amino acid’s concentration, please call our Customer Service Department at 1-877-673-3727 and make a technical inquiry. From there, someone in our Research and Development Department can help to answer your question.

• Low-Glycemic Waxy Maize Carbs
• No Aspartame
• Low-Lactose
• Nutrient-timing efficient
• Up to 20g of Whey Protein per Serving

Protein + Carbs unlock your growth potential
Most athletes know by now that the way to recover is to take protein before and after training. Research into nutrient timing has shown that you recover up to six times faster as a result. But new research shows that if you aren’t getting carbohydrate with your protein during training you may be working your tail off for nothing! If you have stopped growing and don’t know why, this may be your problem. If you have stopped getting stronger this may be the answer. If your stamina has been so-so, this may kick your workouts back into high gear.

Benefit from Insulin's release
When you take carbs during “High Insulin Sensitivity” (a.k.a. HIS), a condition that occurs after twenty minutes of intense training and lasts up to a half-hour after training, you can obtain the maximum growth potential from the nutrients you take in. During this time, carbs are driven straight into muscle to supercharge your workouts and create stored glycogen for tomorrow’s torture session. Stronger workouts mean more muscle stimulation and that’s how muscles start growing again.

Try Pure Whey Fusion today and see for yourself why better workouts make everything happen faster.

From hardcore bodybuilders to fitness enthusiastss, Pure Whey Fusion is the answer for optimal recovery!

FAQ's:

Q. When should I use Pure Whey Fusion?
A. If you're an athlete or physically active individual you should use Pure Whey Fusion around your training or workout session in order to capitalize on the body's nutrient absorption potential and recovery mechanisms.

Q. Do I still need to take a regular protein?
A. Yes. You may take a pure protein supplement, like Pure Whey Protein Stack, at all other times of the day if you are trying to minimize carbohydrate intake.

Q. Does Pure Whey Fusion contain any lactose? If so, how much?
A. Yes. Pure Whey Fusion contains whey protein concentrate, and whey protein concentrates do contain a level of lactose. Therefore, there is some lactose present. This averages about 1 g per serving depending on the flavor. For comparison purposes one 8 oz. glass of skim milk contains 14g of lactose and 8g of protein.

Q. Where does whey protein come from?
A. "Whey" is the name given to the watery part of milk that remains after making cheese. Whey is, in fact, a byproduct of cheese manufacturing that is rich in lactose, vitamins, minerals, and whey protein.

Dairy "whey protein" is composed of several different protein fractions that include: alpha-lactalbumin, beta-lactoglobulin, bovine serum albumin, glycomacropeptides, immunoglobulins, lactoferrin, lactoperoxidase, and the proteose peptones. Each one is nutrient-rich and essential in its own way, yet it is the combination of all these fractions that gives whey protein the nutritious and health-promoting value.

OPTIMUM NUTRITION CASEIN

FAVOR :

CHOCOLATE ; VANILLA

S$49.00 ( 2 lb )

Low Carb Slow Digesting, Anti Catabolic Miceller Protein With Glutamine!

Sometimes slower is better - especially when it comes to the rate of protein digestion. While rapid protein absorption is desirable immediately before or after exercise, delayed release is probably more beneficial throughout the remainder of the day. Casein proteins are pH sensitive and gel in the acidic environment of the stomach. As a result, it can take more than twice as long for caseins to be broken-down into their amino acid subcomponents than whey and other proteins. Casein is the most abundant protein present in milk. It is considered a high quality protein because it is easily assimilated and it supplies sufficient quantities of amino acids that cannot be synthesized by the body.

Another benefit is increased satiety (feeling of fullness or satisfaction). Casein exerts a slight pressure on the stomach walls. In effect, this pressure signals to the brain to stop eating because the stomach is full. Casein is the most slowly digested and absorbed type of protein. This helps create a "timed-release" effect, providing a steady stream of amino acids to your muscles over a long period of time. The net result is a greatly enhanced anti-catabolic environment which is much more friendly to growth and recovery.

Bodybuilders and athletes looking to build lean muscle, prevent muscle breakdown, and reduce recovery times, and individuals interested in improving the quality of their sleep can greatly benefit from casein.

Casein Research
Perhaps the most interesting kernel on casein to come from the scientific community is the Boirie study, which found that casein managed about a 31% increase in protein synthesis (to whey's 68%)... but also reduced whole-body protein degradation (catabolism) by 34%. More importantly, researchers found that casein contributed to a positive nitrogen balance an average of 7 hours after ingestion.

The Biorie study has since spurred further research of casein. Another study looked at the effect casein might have on body composition when used as part of a 12-week weight-training program. Participants were separated into two groups, each of which maintained a balanced diet including 75 grams of protein per day. The difference was in the sources of protein used: while the first group relied on whey-based drinks to reach their daily protein requirements, the second group made use of milk protein isolates (80% casein, 20% whey). At the end of the study, the milk protein isolate group had lost more fat (15.4 lbs. vs. 9.2 lbs.), gained more lean mass (9 lbs. vs. 4.4 lbs.), and gained more upper and lower body strength than the whey group.

CYTOSPORT MUSCLEMILK

FAVOR:

CHOCOLATE ; VANILLA ; STRAWBERRY

S$78.00 (2.48 lb)

World’s first evolutionary muscle builder

Muscle Milk helps to grow muscle faster than gainers, whey, or even creatine. This increased muscle growth is possible because Muscle Milk is the first product patterned after Nature’s ultimate anabolic food – human mother’s milk.
Locked within the composition of human mother’s milk are long-held secrets to muscle growth potential. After years of study, we have actually duplicated these important muscle growth factors into Muscle Milk.

Muscle milk helps you grow muscle like never before, even for the hardest gainers!
While human milk is the quintessential growth promoter, we found ways to improve on it for even greater muscle synthesis. For example, we reduced lactose and fat, while discovering a way to recreate the lean-promoting lipids in human milk.

LeanLipidsTM burns fat…instead of storing it!
Leading scientists assessing the true role of fats in increasing lean muscle growth have shown all fats are not created equal. The type of fat determines whether you use it for muscle energy or store it as body fat! The LEANLIPIDS used in Muscle Milk promote fat loss 3 ways:

Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) the predigested “fast burning fats” are more likely burned for muscle energy and heat than stored as fat. Of total lipids, human mother’s milk contains approximately 20% MCTs. Muscle Milk replicates this important lipid structure.

Long-chain polysaturated fatty acids are also less likely to be stored as fat. Special enzyme engineering makes these lipids more functional, enhancing mineral retention and anti-inflammatory response.

Recent research reveals calories with engineered lipids, taken before and during workouts, promote leanness. It is thought that these calories are used for workout energy, with less deposited as fat.

So while Muscle Milk may contain slightly more fat than low-fat-high-carb products, our LEANLIPIDS are designed to help you get leaner.

EVOPRO- nature’s ultimate anabolic protein amino blend

Human milk is composed of unique and highly complex proteins, peptides and amino acids, which promote rapid muscle tissue growth. Nature created this precise mix to stimulate muscle growth to higher levels, and EVOPRO is the ultimate nitrogen delivery source.

Studies show that growth factors found in mother’s milk can wake up inborn growth receptors even in adults. These growth receptors, which help boost immunity and growth in infants, are ‘turned on’ to exert anabolic metabolism. Whether you are 4 or 44, these growth receptors are ready to be awakened, and lactose free Muscle Milk is the best way.

Steroid Effectiveness Chart

2009-05-23T00:22:00.003+08:00

Which Steroids Are Most Effective

This chart ranks steroids in different categories from 1 - 10. 1 being the lowest/weakest, and 10 being the highest/strongest. The rankings below were decided upon by one person’s opinions, it was not created by professional research. This is for informational purposes only.

Steroids Ranked

TYPES OF STEROIDS

2009-05-22T23:35:00.001+08:00

Anabolic/Androgenic Steroids can be roughly classified into two types, oral and injectable. When you eat food or consume anything orally, the great majority of the ingested substances pass through the liver prior to entering the bloodstream. For this reason, "injectable" AAS cannot be taken orally because the liver will deactivate the steroids in this "first pass". Deactivation in the liver usually involves the addition of one or more hydroxyl (OH) groups to increase the solubility of the molecule in water, making excretion in the urine more easily accomplished.

Oral Steroids
Oral steroids involve modification of the parent steroid to make it harder for the liver to degrade the steroid molecules. This modification is almost always the addition of an alkyl (methyl) group at the 17 position of the steroid ring. The liver can still degrade the steroid, but not as effectively as the un-modified steroid. Therefore, oral steroids make several cycles through the bloodstream before being excreted. Most oral steroids are, to various degrees, excreted from the body unchanged.

Injectable Steroids
The injectable AAS are very effectively degraded in just a single pass through the liver. If this is so, then how can the injectables be effective? The answer is called a "depot" (or reservoir), which allows a regular release of steroid into the bloodstream. As steroid is removed from the bloodstream by the liver, more steroid is being released into the bloodstream from the depot. There are several ways to provide such a reservoir of the steroid.

Suspension
The first way is to use pure testosterone (a crystalline solid) suspended in water. Testosterone has a low solubility in water, and the crystals slowly dissolve in the watery environment of the tissue in which it is injected. The dissolved testosterone is carried throughout the body by the bloodstream. For Testosterone suspension, the "depot" is the actual physical site where the injection is made. The crystals do not migrate to other parts of the body, and the presence of the crystalline testosterone can cause some pain at the injection site. The testosterone dissolves at a (relatively) constant rate, and lasts for a few days in the body. Winstrol suspension is similar.

Esters
The other way to provide a depot of steroid is to use a water-insoluble form of the steroid that can be converted in the body to the parent steroid, which has some solubility in water (bloodstream). Most commonly, the parent molecule is esterified with an organic acid, and the resulting ester is soluble in oil, but only very slightly soluble in water. Commonly used organic acid groups are acetate (C2), propionate (C3), enanthate (C7), decanoate (C10), and undecylenate (C11). The longer the carbon chain of the acid, the more oil-soluble the ester, and the longer it takes for the ester to turn into the parent steroid (de-esterification). A type of enzyme that is found throughout the body facilitates the de-esterification reaction to form the parent steroid from the ester. The enzyme actually catalyzes the reaction in both directions, so it can also attach an organic acid back onto the parent steroid. So, for example, testosterone enanthate can actually be turned into testosterone palmitate. There is some good evidence that steroid esters are, to some extent, stored in fat cells.
It is commonly believed that esters form a depot of oil/ester that stays at the injection site. This is not true. While the depot concept holds true for esters (because they slowly release the parent steroid over time), the esters actually disperse throughout the body after injection, prior to (and during) the de-esterification reaction to form the parent steroid. They do not stay at the injection site. For example, the ester testosterone enanthate has been found in tissues throughout the body, including hair samples of subjects who have injected T200. If a bio-contaminant is introduced at the time of injection (non-sterile conditions), the body will attempt to encapsulate the contaminated material, and an abscess will form. In this case it appears as if the ester has remained at the injection site. But under normal sterile conditions, the oily solution will disperse. Injecting too much at one site or injecting too frequently at one site will not cause an abscess.

Transport of Steroids in the Bloodstream
Once the steroid has been released from the depot (or the oral steroid has been absorbed from the intestine), it is transported throughout the body in the bloodstream. Carrier proteins (Albumin and Sex Hormone binding Globulin) bind about 98% of testosterone under natural conditions. Thus, only 2% of the hormone is free to carry out its actions. When exogenous steroid is present, the level of free steroid is much higher than 2%. Bear in mind that the hormone is not permanently bound to the some of the proteins, but is constantly binding and un-binding from the protein. At any given time, about 2% of the hormone is un-bound in the natural state. So, if the 2% unbound hormone were to magically disappear, then the proteins would release more hormone such that 2% (of the remaining total) would come unbound. The bloodstream is the mechanism by which the hormones reach their target tissues (muscle).

Action of Steroids

Androgen Receptor Activation
Once a free molecule of steroid reaches the muscle cell, it diffuses into the cell. The diffusion can be with or without transport-protein assistance. Once in the cell, the AAS is makes its way to the cell nucleus where it can bind with an androgen receptor (AR), and activate the receptor. Two of these activated receptor complexes join together to form the androgen response element (ARE). The ARE interacts with DNA in the nucleus, and increases the transcription of certain genes (such as muscle protein genes). As long as the ARE is intact, it accelerates gene transcription. Remember, though, that the AAS and the receptor are in a state of flux (binding and un-binding), just like with the Carrier proteins. So the ARE can be deactivated just by losing one of the two AAS that are bound to the AR's. This equilibrium situation explains why 1 gram per week testosterone is more effective than 1/2 gram per week, even though 1/2 gram appears to be more than enough to saturate all the AR's in the body. The higher concentration makes it more likely that the receptors will be occupied by an AAS, and the ARE will be intact for a longer period of time, on average.

Other Actions
Activation of the androgen receptor is a key mechanism in the action of AAS. However, this mechanism by itself does not explain the differences between steroids (i.e., nandrolone activates the AR better than testosterone, but is not as good of a mass-building product). Other actions involve primarily the central nervous system, and involve actions such as motor activation (muscle coordination) and mood (i.e., aggressiveness). The mechanism by which AAS effect these actions is not well understood at this time. Another effect occurs in the liver, where some steroids cause the release of certain Growth Factors. The different actions of the different AAS explains why a stack of two different types of AAS is often better than one by itself.

Elimination of Steroids
The liver is a primary route to deactivation of steroids, the chemical structure is changed here to make the steroid more soluble in water for excretion through the kidneys. A good portion of many steroids also are excreted as-is, without any alteration by the liver, or by formation of the sulphate, which is more water soluble. Many in the medical community have believed that AAS cause liver damage because levels of certain enzymes (AST and ALT) are elevated when steroids are used. Elevated levels of these enzymes are seen in patients with liver damage from other causes, so the conclusion is that AAS must cause liver damage because these enzymes are elevated. Recent work, however, has shown that a true marker of liver damage, GGT, remains unchanged when some AAS are used, and now it is questioned whether AAS are really damaging to the liver (the 17 alpha-alkylated AAS do cause damage in some rare cases, and this damage is reversible upon cessation of steroid use). The same thought processes were used to claim kidney damage, but that is unlikely as well.

The Causes of Inhibition
Elevated hormone levels, in general, will cause inhibition of natural testosterone production. What then besides estrogen can cause inhibition? DHT, which does not aromatize, has been extensively shown to cause inhibition of testosterone production. Androgen alone, then, is sufficient to cause inhibition. In Jim’s case, androgen use was moderately heavy, and androgen alone would seem the cause of the inhibition.

Progesterone is another hormone that can cause inhibition, when used long-term. Paradoxically, in the short term it can be stimulatory. Other relevant factors include beta agonists, opiates, melatonin, prolactin, and probably other compounds. With the exception of beta agonists (e.g. ephedrine and Clenbuterol) and opiates (natural endorphins on the one hand being inhibitory, and Nubain blocking such inhibition) manipulation of these would not seem useful in bodybuilding.

The Hypothalamic/Pituitary/Testicular Axis (HPTA)
To understand inhibition of testosterone production, we need to know first how it is produced and how production is controlled. The broad general picture is that the hypothalamus receives a variety of inputs, for example, levels of various hormones, and decides whether or not more sex hormones should be produced. If the inputs are high, for example, high estrogen or high androgen or both, then it decides that little or no sex hormones should now be produced, but if all inputs are low, then it may decide that more sex hormones should be produced. It seems that the hypothalamus doesn’t respond only to current hormone levels, but also to the past history of hormone levels.
The hypothalamus itself cannot produce any sex hormones – instead it produces LHRH, or luteinizing hormone (LH) releasing hormone, also called GnRH (gonadotropin releasing hormone.) This then stimulates the pituitary gland.

The pituitary uses the amount of LHRH as one of its signals in deciding how much LH it should produce. Proper response depends on having sufficient receptors for LHRH. These receptors must be activated for LH to be produced. The pituitary also uses sex hormone levels, both current and the past history, in deciding how much LH to produce. Some aspects of the pituitary’s behavior are peculiar. For example, too much LHRH results in the pituitary downregulating LHRH receptors, with the result that very high LHRH production, which one would think should result in high testosterone production, actually lowers testosterone production. Another oddity is that while high estrogen levels inhibit the pituitary, still some estrogen is required to maintain a high number of LHRH receptors. So both very low and high levels of estrogen can inhibit LH production.

LH produced by the pituitary then stimulates the testicles to produce testosterone. Here, the amount of LH is the main factor, and high levels of sex hormones do not seem to cause inhibition at this level.
Inhibition From AAS Cycles
Because high androgen levels sustained around the clock will cause inhibition, traditional cycles simply cannot avoid inhibition of LH production while on cycle. There are three ways to avoid it:

· Avoid having high androgen levels around the clock. This can be done, for example, by using oral AAS only in the morning, with the last dose being approximately at noontime. Even 100 mg/day Dianabol can be used in this fashion with little inhibition. The problem with this approach is that gains are not very good compared to what is seen when high androgen levels are sustained around the clock.

· Use an amount and kind of AAS that is low enough to avoid much inhibition. Primobolan at 200-400 mg/week may achieve this effect. Again, gains will be compromised compared to a more substantial cycle. Testosterone esters and Deca are substantially inhibitory even at 100 mg/week so using a low dose of these drugs will simply result in both inhibition and poor gains.

· In principle, one could use an antiandrogen, but this would totally defeat the purpose of the cycle.

Where AAS doses are sufficient for good gains, an interesting pattern is seen. For the first two weeks of the cycle, only the hypothalamus is inhibited, and it produces much less LHRH as a result of the high levels of sex hormones it senses. The pituitary is not inhibited at all: in fact, it is actually sensitized, and will respond to LHRH (if any is provided) even moreso than normally. After two weeks however, the pituitary also becomes inhibited, and even if LHRH is provided, the pituitary will produce little or no LH. This then is a deeper type of inhibition. After this point, there seems to be no definite further "switching point" where inhibition again becomes deeper and harder to reverse. As a general rule, I would say that there seems to be little difference between using AAS for 3 weeks vs. 8 weeks: recovery is about the same either way. Between 8 and 12 weeks, it becomes more and more likely that recovery will be difficult and slow, though even at 12 weeks it is common for recovery to not be too problematic, taking only a few weeks. Cycles past 12 weeks seem much more likely to cause substantial problems with recovery. In the hundreds of consultations I have done for people with recovery problems, very few (I can recall two) were for very short cycles such as 6 weeks, while most were for usages of 12 weeks straight or more.

Cytadren: This drug can be used to reduce conversion of testosterone, Dianabol, and Equipoise (not an exclusive list of aromatizable AAS, but the main ones) to estrogen. Some feel that when estrogen levels are kept under control during the cycle, recovery is faster after the cycle is over, though that is not proven. It is a good idea though. And if testosterone esters were used prior to ending the cycle, some levels of these will remain for weeks, and continued use of Cytadren will help prevent conversion to estrogen, and thereby reduce inhibition. The best dosing pattern, in my opinion, is to take ˝ tab (125 mg) on arising, and then Ľ tab at six and 12 hours later. Use of more Cytadren than this, or a different pattern, may lead to an adverse effect on cortisol production, with subsequent cortisol rebound after discontinuing the drug. Some individuals suffer some lethargy (feeling of tiredness and laziness, or sleepiness) from Cytadren, but that is uncommon at this dose.

Arimidex: This accomplishes the same purposes as Cytadren but without the possible side effects mentioned above. It is however far more expensive. A typical dose is 1 mg./day. The timing of the dosage does not matter, since the drug has a long half-life.
Clomid: After a cycle is over, Clomid at 50 mg/day is usually very effective in restoring natural testosterone production. It acts by blocking estrogen receptors at the hypothalamus and pituitary. If androgen levels are not elevated, this is enough to cause production of at least normal amounts of LH, or often more LH than normal. During the cycle Clomid cannot prevent inhibition, though some think using it during the cycle will allow a faster recovery afterwards. That is not proven though. If nothing else, though, it is useful as an antigyno/antibloating agent during the cycle.

Nolvadex: This works in the same manner as Clomid, but not nearly so well with regard to reversing inhibition. It is better to use this only as an anti-gyno/antibloating agent, if at all. If Clomid is used, there is no need for Nolvadex.

HCG: This does nothing with regard to inhibition of the hypothalamus and pituitary. Rather it acts like LH, and causes the testicles to produce testosterone just as if LH were present. It is useful then for avoiding testicular atrophy during the cycle. The best dosing method is to use small amounts frequently: 500 IU per day is sufficient, and 1000 IU may optionally be used. The amount may be given as a single daily dose or divided into two doses. Administration may be intramuscular or subcutaneous. More is not better: too much HCG can result in downregulation of the LH receptors in the testes, and is therefore counterproductive. Overdosing of HCG can also result in gynecomastia.

Ephedrine/clenbuterol: It is possible that the beta agonist activities of these drugs may assist in recovery. Personally, I do recommend the use of ephedrine post-cycle to those who can use it. Clenbuterol has the same effect but acts around the clock, having a longer half life, and allowing a higher effective dose (amount times potency) due to having less relative effect on beta receptors in the heart. I am not sure that clenbuterol has any better effect with regard to recovery though.

Oral AAS: These do not assist recovery of natural testosterone production, but if used only in the morning, can help sustain muscle mass while in the recovery phase, with little or no adverse effect on recovery.

Anyone who reads this website hereby releases this service and any and all of its affiliates from any and all liability whatsoever associated with use of the information offered. Consult a doctor before taking any prescription drugs.All potential steroid users should first understand the positive and navigate effects associated with steroid use.

If it’s your first time, you should probably use only one steroid. The most popular is nandrolone deconate, commonly known as Deca-Durabolin. It is considered to have the best result to side effect ratio. Because it is an anabolic steroid and has no significant androgenic properties, it does not convert to estrogen or DHT. When using a steroid that has high androgenic effects, it is imperative to use an anti-estrogen toward the end of the cycle to prevent side effects associated with extremely high estrogen levels such as gynecomastia. The biggest factors leading to negative side effects is the use of a fake steroid, improper use of a steroid, or not being able to recognize the side effect when it is in its early stages. Please read over the side effects area before using any type of steroid.A common one steroid cycle for a novice would be to inject 200-400mg of Deca once per week for 8 weeks. When combined with a healthy high protein diet, a person can expect to put on a good amount of size and strength. The results a person gets are dependent on a few things like diet, exercise routine, and rest. A beginner should start with about 200mg/week, and no more than 400mg/week.Beginners Deca and Dbol Cycle.

Another good beginners cycle is the deca and dbol cycle. Which would be 200-400mg of Deca-Durabolin once per week and about 15-25mg of Dianabol each day for about 6-8 weeks. It is a good idea to spread the dianabol out over the course of the day to allow more stable levels of the drug to enter the system (i.e. one 5mg tab every few hours during the day).This is a good basic mass building cycle for an intermediate steroid user. An effective dosage for an intermediate would be about 500mg of testosterone each week (i.e. Sustanon, Testosterone Cypionate, Testosterone Enanthate, etc…) and 200-300mg of Deca-Durabolin each week. It is a good idea to have 2 injections per week because of the volume of oil. For example, inject 1cc of Sustanon 250 and 1cc of Deca-Durabolin every Monday and Friday for 8 weeks.Similar to the Test and Deca Cycle listed above except use Equipoise in place of Deca-Durabolin.This is another good cycle for an intermediate steroid user. An effective dosage for an intermediate would be about 500mg of testosterone each week (i.e. Sustanon, Testosterone Cypionate, Testosterone Enanthate, etc…) and 25-50mg of Winstrol each day. This is a good cycle for people who are interested in losing bodyfat while maintaining muscle size and strength. An effective dosage for an intermediate would be about 400mg of Equipoise, along with 50mg of Winstrol each day.

After all steroid cycles men should use Clomid/Novaldex to help restore natural testosterone production in the body. Testosterone boosting supplements such as Tribulus Terrestris are also helpful in raising natural testosterone production. About 1-2 weeks after your last injection you should take 50mg of Clomid each day and 500mg of Tribulus Terrestris twice per day for 3 weeks.

Basic Steroid Biochemestry

2009-05-22T23:03:00.005+08:00

Here is a basic rundown of how testosterone works in the body. Its a very brief description of a complex and not perfectly understood process.
Testosterone facts:
• Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone
• Testosterone is androgenic and is responsible for secondary male characteristics such as body hair, beard growth, deep voice, increased production of sebaceous glands, development of the penis, aggressiveness, sexual behavior, libido, and the maturation of sperm
• Testosterone is anabolic (promotes muscle growth)
• Testosterone is made in the Leydig Cells in the testes
• Men produce approx 5-10mg of Testosterone per day
• Normal testosterone concentration in men is between 300-100 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dl)
• Typical prescription testosterone therapy will consist of only 25-75mg of testosterone administered per week
• Testosterone strengthens bones
How testosterone works in the body:
For testosterone to actually work in your body you have to get it in you first. There are other new developments in the ways of sublingual lozenges, patches, and transdermal creams, but typically it is done in one of two ways. It is either taken orally (pill) or injected directly into the muscle (using a needle).
How Andro Works: Recently classified as illegal anabolic steroids, Androstenedione or “Andro” products are oral precursors to testosterone in one form or another. These steroids are essentially “one step away” from becoming actual testosterone through natural body process that will alter their chemical makeup once injested.

ORAL

Like all drugs (taken orally), testosterone will have to go through the digestion process to get absorbed into your blood stream. This means that the drug must go through your stomach. Then from your stomach, the drug goes into the small intestine where it is absorbed and transported to the liver. Among its many important jobs, the liver is responsible for processing nutrients and vitamins from food, storage of nutrients for later use by the body, cleaning dead cells out of the blood, getting rid of toxic substances (like alcohol), producing bile (to help digest fat), and you guessed it, metabolism of drugs!
Almost all prescription drugs, including steroids, are absorbed in the small intestine and have to go through the liver. In the process, most are almost completely destroyed after the first time through. This is called first-pass metabolism. Some steroids are 17-alkylated, which is a chemical alteration specifically designed to protect the drug against first pass metabolism. The ones that are 1 7-alkylated are much more effective as oral steroids, however they can damage the liver very quickly.

INJECTABLE
When injected, steroids are much more effective milligram for milligram since they are not subjected to the digestion process and the first pass of the liver. Believe it or not, but digestion can render up to 95% of the steroid totally useless! Not that injecting doesn’t come with its own set of disadvantages, but you will read about that later.
Now that you have the testosterone in your system it needs to be activated through the androgen receptor. Think of the androgen receptor as a lock and testosterone is the key. When testosterone isn’t bound to a receptor (key in the lock) it is called “Free Testosterone’. Only about 2% of all the testosterone in your system is actually ‘Free” at any given time. The remaining is bound to proteins and albumin, rendering it temporarily useless.
Once the free testosterone (key) binds to the androgen receptor (lock) in skeletal muscle, SAM! Major muscle growth is activated! Then, when the testosterone is done interacting with the receptor, it releases and gets sent back into circulation.
But you have to keep one thing in mind. Androgen receptors are found in many areas of the body! This is one reason why side effects occur. You see, when testosterone binds with the androgen receptor in skeletal muscle, it promotes muscle growth, but when it binds with the androgen receptor within the central nervous system, for example, it promotes aggressiveness.
Unfortunately, there’s no way to pick and chose which cells will be activated by the testosterone. A lot of side effects are really pre-determined by genetics. If you Just happen to naturally have a high concentration of androgen receptors in your hair follicles, for instance, you are much more apt to hair loss as a side effect of taking steroids.

Anabolic Steroid Cycles

Anabolic Steroid Cycles

With the wide variety of anabolic/androgenic steroids available, planning the most appropriate cycle may seem like a difficult task to the steroid novice. Even if we have settled on a particular drug or drug combination, it is still easy to question whether or not we are using them in the most effective manner. This is one of those topics which can get more confusing with research, as you will find the popular literature filled with various stacking, cycling, tapering and receptor response (upregulation/downregulation) theories. If you have looked through this site in the hopes it will provide you some new and unusual ways to take anabolic/androgenic steroids, you will probably be disappointed. I have actually developed the opinion that athletes usually place too much importance on cycle construction. Experimenting with fancy dosing patterns, rotation schedules and (especially) tapering routines, hoping they will bring about enhanced results, is in my opinion a very unreliable practice. In this section I will therefore be ignoring the more lavish intake regimens, and focus on the more fundamental aspects to using these drugs. This is obvious when you look at the sample cycles included, which you will notice display little fluctuation in drug dosages from start to finish. They are not fashioned as such due to laziness, but simply because my personal experience has led me to a place where picking a dosage and sticking with it (unless there is an obvious need to adjust) seems to make the most sense. Of course it is ultimately up to the individual to find out what works best for him or her, as nobody can rightly claim that there is one "correct" way for everyone to use steroids. Here are a few things to think about when deciding on the right cycle for your needs.

Stacking

It is an extremely common practice for an athlete to take more than one individual steroid during a cycle. By taking a combination of steroids, the user is of course seeking to enhance the amount/quality of muscle mass gained from drug therapy. While I'm sure it is no surprise that stacking is generally an effective practice, you should probably give some thought to expected goals and side effects before simply combining steroids. If you are looking to gain considerable mass for example, the use of two strong androgens like testosterone and Anadrol 50® would be one of the more potent cycles to attempt. But this combination would also lead to very harsh side effects, and may be too uncomfortable far some individuals. In this case it may be a good suggestion to combine a milder anabolic with a base androgen instead. A stack such as Deca-Durabolin® and Dianabol would still produce very formidable muscle mass gains, but would provide to user much less water/fat retention, gynecomastia, hair loss/growth and acne than the former.
On the other hand, "anabolics" are typically the favored class of steroids for cutting/dieting phases of training. This is because most have little or no tendency for estrogen conversion, which as you know makes them less apt to induce fat and water accumulation. It is important to remember however that these steroids can still suppress endogenous testosterone production during a cycle. Since the administered drugs) may not provide the body enough androgen content to compensate for this loss, this type of cycle may sometimes interfere with aggression and libido (Deca is a common offender). In such a state the user might become depressed and unmotivated (see: side effects, depression), seriously reducing the quality (results and comfort) of the cycle. It is therefore usually a good idea to include some type of androgen during this type of cycle, especially if you have experienced such problems before. The preference would be a nonaromatizing androgenic compound like Proviron®, Halotestin® or trenbolone, which will not increase the likelihood for fat/water retention. In the absence of excess estrogen, the heightened androgen level brought about by these drugs can actually enhance the removal of body fat, and noticeably increase the look of hardness/density to the physique (provided the user's body fat percentage is low enough to make this visible). (f such compounds were unavailable, perhaps a weekly (low dosage) shot of testosterone would prove sufficient to ward off any problems.
Finally, is also good to remember that it is not absolutely necessary to take more than one steroid at a time. The term you hear most often is synergy, which implies that two (or more) steroids used together will often compliment (and amplify) each other, providing a greater muscle gain than if they had been used consecutively. Though not well understood, a number of studies do suggest that different modes of action might exist for steroids outside of the androgen receptor (which would seem to support the notion that cooperative or synergistic effects can be seen with different drug arrangements). Athletes also seem to know that certain drug combinations work extremely well together (Deca & Dianabol, testosterone and Anadrol 50®, trenbolone and Winstrol® etc.), which is a testament to the notion of drug synergy. But this should not be confused with the idea that you cannot make gains on one drug alone. An athlete new to the world of steroids could make exceptional gains on a cycle of testosterone, Anadrol 50® or Dianabol for example, without ever needing to add a second drug. Heavily increased dosages and multidrug stacks are likewise most prominent among those who are already very familiar with steroid use, and find they are necessary in order to continue to gain or maintain muscle mass.

Dosing and Megadosing

There are many different opinions as to exactly what dosage an individual should use of any particular drug in order to elicit optimal results. Some seem to find they make exceptional gains on relatively low dosages of most steroids, while others insist they need to administer very large amounts of androgens for the proper level of bulk. While I would be no means claim to have the solution for everybody, I would say those most steroids seem to work their best in a particular range of dosage, and usually fall short of expectations as we go higher or lower. On the one hand we may find that going below what is considered to be a normal dosage for a specific drug will cause a very poor gain to be achieved, the hormone level perhaps not rising enough above normal to stimulate a considerable response. For example, 200-800mg of testosterone enanthate per week is typically sufficient for a man to receive very formidable gains, while 50-100mg may not provide very noticeable results at all (of course this is all common sense). On the other extreme, athletes generally find that unusually large doses (let's say 1000-2000mg per week) will provide a relatively low quality increase over that of the normal dosage range. Yes, the amount of muscle mass may be considerably more than expected with a typical dose, but this will probably not be proportionate with the gain of new body fat and water weight. The user will typically be stuck with a much more noticeable level of side effects, while receiving a poor return (as in solid muscle mass) on his money. When steroids were abundant and cheap in the 1980', megadosing among recreational steroid users was not all that uncommon. No doubt paying $20 per week as opposed to $5 was not a very difficult decision to make. But today high prices will usually prevent the widespread practice of such excessive dosing, as such a cycle could cost hundreds of dollars each week. The side note to this is that one can reach an extreme level of development where year round high dosage steroid use is a necessity to maintain an anabolic state.

Cycle Duration

There are also many arguments as to how long one should stay on a steroid cycle before taking a break. Opinions range from those of cautious individuals, who are often vehement about short cycles and long off-periods, to the seriously hard-core user who suggests year round use for optimal results. Since it is really up to the individual to choose the cycle that is best for him or her, I can only provide some very basic advice. For starters, it is very important to watch your intake duration when on stronger or more toxic substances. This includes all c17 alpha alkylated orals, or high-dose cycles of easily aromatized steroids. These compounds place the most stress on your organs, and likewise should be utilized for only limited intervals (preferably less than 8 weeks). Afterwards a break of at least as much time (preferably more) should be taken to give the body ample time to rest/recover. For those who refuse to follow such advice, blood work and regular health checkups should be an absolute necessity.
When taking milder anabolics like Deca-Durabolin®, Primobolan or Equipoise, one might opt to take the drugs for a longer duration. This is due to the fact that these compounds do not act in an extremely dramatic manner, and instead promote a slow but consistent buildup of muscle tissue. With this understanding it is not unusual for an athlete to find a cycle of three, even four or more months to be the most appropriate. If used for only a short duration, the individual might find the overall gains to be uninspiring. Year round, on-all-the-time steroid use should be avoided if at all possible, as one should respect the natural hormonal balance your body strives for. The body really should be given time to regain a natural hormonal balance every so often, to ensure that there is little possibility of future problems. Although many believe the effects of these drugs to be 100% fully reversible, it is not impossible to see problems with virility, libido etc. after the body had been overloaded with hormones for many years. The health risks associated with elevated cholesterol levels, high blood pressure or liver toxicity are of course also important reasons the athlete should limit the duration of steroid intake.

Tapering

One of the most fundamental beliefs among steroid users is that tapering, or the practice of slowly reducing their drug dosage when discontinuing a cycle, is an absolute necessity when wishing to preserve your newly gained muscle mass. It is rare to find an athlete who does not religiously dedicate (at least) three or four weeks to a tapering schedule after every serious cycle. The obvious belief is that the body will notice the lowering androgen level, and compensate by resuming the manufacture of testosterone. Unfortunately you will see that this theory is in fact, extremely flawed. This is because in order for the production of testosterone to be fully restored, the body will really need to recognize an androgen deficit, not just a drop in steroid dosage. Since for example even one Dianabol tablets could provide the equivalent of a days androgen supply for the average male, tapering from five, to four, to three etc. will accomplish relatively nothing. In the three or four weeks the athlete will spend doing this, his body is still reading "androgen overload", and is not attempting to restore the output of testosterone. This will of course hold true for all anabolic steroids, not just the strong androgens. Anecdotal evidence suggests that even tapering with mild anabolics such as Primobolan or Anavar (normally thought of as mild in terms of testosterone suppression) is enough to prevent or delay a hormonal rebound.
So if tapering is useless what should the athlete do in order to properly discontinue a steroid cycle? Of course the obvious answer is to pay much closer attention to ancillary drug use than tapering. The proper application of testosterone stimulating compounds like HCG, Clomid®, Nolvadex® and/or cyclofenil are the most critical, as these can greatly aid in the balancing of body hormones. [The popular methods for using all the above medications are laid out under their individual profiles.] In the few cycles I have illustrated in this section you will notice that I have not even bothered to lower the drug dosages before the ancillary drugs are added. Simply put, there is no need to. In my opinion going "cold turkey' is just the most logical option.

Sample Steroid Stacks

Sample steroid stacks are provided to demonstrate common and/or effective drug combinations in use by bodybuilders. For most of these cycles, the dosages used are in the moderate range. They are intended to represent a balance of peak effectiveness with tolerable side effects, and are also designed so that they can be assembled with very basic and common black market items. For most novice steroid users, stacks like these provide more than a sufficient level of steroid for very dramatic results. Some even find that they can make substantial progress on much less. These represent only common guidelines toward typical use, and by no means are indented to be the perfect cycles for everybody. You will also notice that I have not provided cycles geared towards women. This is quite simply because I think women should be extremely cautious with these drugs. Those absolutely determined to use them should certainly avoiding multiple drug combinations, especially as a novice to these agents.

Amino acids
=========
Without this , we just cannot grow.PERIOD!! For those on steriods, we need even more amount. Protein contains the building blocks of human tissue which are amino acids.The body breaks down these aminos into new forms that be used to promote growth,repair and mainteniace functions. There are 8 essentail amino acids which when we consume will sythesize the other amino acids.There are a free form and peptide-bonded amino. I personally like the peptide-form because that the nitrogen retention qualities are better than free form. Every one is different and you have to experiment which form your body can adsorb better.

Food Compositions
=============
*Carbohydrates
*fats
*proteins
*vitamins
*minerals
*water
(Each of the above plays an important part in our diet, so it is essential we go through these categories)

Protein - The Builder
_______________
Protein is made up of amino acids.(essential and non-essential). Protein provides the building bricks known as animo acids ,which is necesary for the muscle growth.
Sources:
Animal foods : meats,fish,eggs,cheese,milk
Cereals : barley,oats,wheat,flour
vegetables : potatoes,beans,peas,nuts
So how much is enough? A general guideline is 2g per kg body weight ( for hardcore training). For example , If you weigh in around 70kg--> then it will be 70 X 2 = 154 grams of protein/day. You can order cheap and good protein from some online stores in Singapore. Below i have listed some these online stores. Please note that i am not promoting their website, it is just simply that i find their stuff cheap and good.(dont get rip-ff and pay skyhigh prices for some supplement stores in Singapore)

Carbs , as more widely known.They provide us with heat and energy.Those of us on hard training will reqiured a greater amonut in oder to give us energy and power. Anyone who are not into hardcore training,by increasing the carbs will only get FAT. People on weight-loss program will have to lower down the levels because of lighter work load.A pint to be wary is that carbohydrates can be stored as fat..so be careful

Fats
___

Fats provides us with heat and energy and also the essential layers of protection for the vital organs i.e. heart,kidney and liver etc. If EXCESS fat is eaten , it is easily converted to bidy fat , resulting in obvious weight gain. the main sources are form: butter, lard, cream, fish oils, margarine, oil,soya bean , seeds.

Vitamins
________

vitamin A :
needed for healthy tissue ,especially that of the eyes. You can get form these sources: margarine, butter, cheese

vitamin B complex:
it can help to fight against confusion, depression, irritability, hair loss, bad skin, poor appretite, insomnia, constipation, poor memory.Vitamin B6 can fight against water-rentention, bloatedness, hair loss, muscle cramps. It is adviceable to load up on this vitamin when on steroids.

vitamin C :
This vitamin cleans the liver, blood and kidneys. Besides that it can also assist in body detoxifying.Vitamin C MUST be taken daily .It is a water soluble vitamin and would need to at least 2 to 3 grams per day to benefit .

I personally would recommend buying multi vitamins/minerals (base)and add in additional vitamin C and B when on steroids.

Dianabol- Mass & Strength

2009-04-28T05:37:00.005+08:00

Common names: Dianabol, anabol, dbol, methanabol

Dianabol was originally developed by John Ziegler and released by Ciba in 1956. It has had a long stint of popularity since then, especially in the US. Until the late 70's methandrostenolone was all the rave. Perhaps the most popular steroid ever. Known users include every Mr.Olympia from Scott to Zane. Of course the doses used have severely increased since then. Its popularity was also the cause of its demise. Almost a decade ago now the original D-bol was discontinued when the FDA drew the conclusion that its therapeutic uses were minimal compared to the amount of bodybuilders who were using it. But methandrostenolone has never been out of circulation really. Especially the Russians appeared quite fond of it and Russian D-bol is one of the best and most marketed forms of the substance methandrostenolone today.

Methandrostenolone is without a doubt one of the best, if not the best product for people who compete in non-aerobic oriented sports. It promotes drastic protein synthesis, enhances glycogenolysis (repletion of glycogen after exercise) and stimulates strength in a very direct and fast-acting way. It may be less useful to those competing in aerobic events as it also diminishes cell respiration1. But methandrostenolone manifests itself in a distinct manner : rapid and fast-acting build-up of strength and mass is noticed. That's why its often used at the beginning of cycle consisting of mostly injectables like long-acting testosterone esters and nandrolone. Since the effects of such drugs don't fully come out for the first 10-15 days,methandrostenolone is dosed in to provide immediate and visible results. It has a rather weak androgenic component and an obviously quite strong and visible anabolic component. Its effects are largely non-AR mediated, which is documented by its rather low influence on the natural endocrine system2 and the fact that it decreases rather than increases red blood cell content in the blood. Which means that one worry users of Dianabol, especially short term, needn't fear is the dramatic shutdown of natural testosterone production as is often the case with very androgenic compounds. Of course this effect is dose-dependent.

Because of its fast effects, immense popularity and the increasing "more-is-better" sentiment among bodybuilders, increasingly high doses are indeed being used and recommended. One has to wonder about the logic of such recommendations however, since high dose urine-analysis showed portions of unmetabolized compounds were being excreted3. In simpler terms that means that with higher doses, higher amounts of unchanged methandrostenolone were being excreted in the urine. This would indicate that the current stance needs to be reviewed and that smaller doses, taken multiple times per day would deliver better results and maximal use of the steroid. Dianabol simply is highly effective in low doses(25-40 mg ed). Som say Anadrol, a comparable steroid to methandrostenolone, is better, but its taken in doses of 50-150 mg. If one was to take methandrostenolone in those doses better gains could be expected. Methandrostenolone is also a lot safer in as opposed to the highly toxic and progestagenic anadrol. If one takes into account that the half-life of methandrostenolone in the body is only 3-6 hours, this theory makes even more sense. So taking your daily dose spread over 3 or 4 doses may elicit a better effect than only 1 or 2 doses. Methandrostenolone is quite effective in these lower doses by the way. Milligram for Milligram its more powerful than a testosterone ester, generally considered the best mass-builder.

A few notes there need to be made however. Not everyone should try and spread their doses out over multiple servings. First of all there is a slightly lower efficacy to take into account here as well due to two characteristics. The first being that you feed the total amount to the liver in smaller portions, yet the liver still manages to metabolize the same amount. Percentage wise that means less methandienone would make it through totally. The second would be that the peak levels aren't quite as high since no large doses are taken all at once. These two facts make it hard to recommend that just anyone take multiple doses. People who take moderate to low doses of ONLY methandrostenolone should probably opt for a single morning dose. This delivers a higher peak level and more survival of your only steroid. It also, due to the short half-life, makes the drug clear the body before the body produces its largest dose of natural testosterone, the early hours of sleep. Combined with the already mild effect at the AR, you could keep a good amount of your gains when using clomid or Nolvadex post-cycle. For those using it in conjunction with other, mostly injectable steroids, two doses seems to be the better choice, if you are taking in excess of 40 mg a day perhaps even three doses.

This is usually the case for fast-acting substances, they have short half-lives. Which brings us to the point of prolonged use. The general concensus is that methandrostenolone should never be used more than 6 weeks on end due its strong hepatoxic effects. Being largely an oral compound, its also 17-alpha-alkylated to help it survive the liver upon first pass. Liver values are elevated over a short period of time4, making long-term use a very dangerous affair. Liver values should return to normal quite fast after discontinuation however since the effects are so short-lived. Other risks associated with the use of methandrostenolone include the apparition of estrogenic side-effects because it interacts rather well with the aromatase enzyme on account of its methylated properties. It is therefore best used in conjunction with an anti-estrogen(Nolvadex). Gynocomastia, high blood pressure, salt and water retention and mild cases of acne are therefore not uncommon.

We hinted at the short time of activity methandrostenolone possesses. This means that despite its immediate, fast and explosive gains in both strength and mass, they are quite hard to maintain. Often the bulk of mass is lost shortly after discontinuation, making it most unsuitable for those looking to gain and keep quality muscle. An injectable may suppress some of these obviously flawed characteristics, but the 5 mg tabs remain the trend. With its high capacity to survive breakdown in the liver this understandably. Orally its perhaps the most powerful, although in the strength of effects it still can't hold a candle to androl. But its cheaper and safer than the aforementioned of course.

In light of the evidence presented, we conclude that the best use for methandrostenolone is short-term, for 5-6 weeks, at the beginning of a longerbulking stack (10+ weeks), preferably injectable, to kickstart gains and strength. Its effects are largely non-AR mediated and it aromatizes quite well, which leaves it with limited stacking partners, The best candidates are of course nandrolone and testosterone. It should be taken in doses no higher than 50 mg (20-40 mg being the norm) ,spread over multiple doses for maximum effects in stacks and a single morning dose when taken by itself. D-bol remains a favorite today however, that's a fact that cannot be argued.

Stacking and Use:

Dianabol is a methylated compound with a certain toxicity, so in the interest of safety you wouldn't use it longer than 6 weeks on end, 8 weeks at the absolute maximum and only under supervision of a medical professional who can monitor your liver values. Because it heavily aromatizes its not particularly useful during cutting and with 6-8 weeks of use maximum, that leaves but two options. Either stacking it with another, injectable, compound that can be used for longer terms (beginning of stack when other compound is least active) or you would do multiple short cycles. In that case one would take off at least as long as he was on during a cycle, preferably longer. Like 6 weeks on, followed by 6-10 weeks off. These multiple cycles were all the fashion among pro bodybuilders in the 70's with very decent results.When stacking with a longer-acting product, such as testosterone enanthate or cypionate, Deca or Equipoise, the best use is early on in the stack. Dianabol is a very fast-acting steroid and most injectables don't start showing their real value for 2-3 weeks. That makes it particularly useful to kick off a cycle with.

The pink ones are Anabol (Dianabol) and the yellow ones are Stanabol (Winstrol). These are very popular right now. They are 5 mg tabs and they sell for less than 30 cents a tab.It's most readily stacked with Deca-Durabolin or Primobolan, perhaps even Equipoise. Usually an injection of 200-400 mg/week combined with 30-40 mg of Dianabol everyday. In some cases testosterone was used in conjunction with anyone of these stacks. For short term use oral Primobolan made a good match, and in lesser ways an oral Winstrol. Both provide a mild, lean foundation for the Dianabol and both are also 17-alpha alkylated, warranting short-term use. Since Dianabol has little Androgen receptor activity, it functions particularly synergistic with compounds that have a strong Androgen receptor activity as is the case for all the aforementioned.When stacked with Deca, the choice for a receptor antagonist like Clomid or Nolvadex is perhaps a wiser choice. Perhaps even a combination of both. Dianabol aromatizes rather heavily, which means in a stack with another aromatizing compound the risk for gyno remains high and water retention is virtually a fact. Post-cycle the use of Clomid or Nolvadex can be employed to boost natural testosterone production. There is quite some circulating estrogen post-cycle that causes prolonged negative feedback, clomid or Nolvadex would solve that problem and help you retain more of your gains.

Nolvadex

2009-04-28T05:09:00.004+08:00

Nolvadex is the name of the drug whose scientific name is tamoxifen citrate. Nolvadex is not a steroid - it is a potent anti-estrogen used as an ancillary drug during cycle when symptoms of gyno occur. It can also be used post cycle to restore natural testosterone production. Symptoms of gyno can occur when using a cycle which contains drugs which aromatize, including (but not limited to) testosterones such as enanthate, cypionate, and suspension. The drug is an estrogen agonist / antagonist, which binds to estrogen receptors in different tissues. Whether nolvadex acts as an estrogen agonist or antagonist depends on which type of tissue it is working in. When the tamoxifen molecule binds to the receptors, estrogen is blocked and cannot result in any type of action - therefore an anti-estrogen effect is exhibited. Nolvadex is used clinically in the treatment of breast cancer since many forms of breast cancer are responsive to the action of estrogen. Nolvadex blocks its actions and works as an effective treatment. Aside from direct treatment of breast cancer, it is used as a preventative measure for those with a genetic predisposition for breast cancer. While nolvadex is likely the most popular on-cycle anti-estrogen due to its affordable price, more potent remedies are avaialable such as arimidex, femara, and aromasin. These ancillary drugs prevent estrogen from being manufactured in the first place and make gyno related side effects virtually nonexistent.

There is an enzyme in the male body known as aromoatase which is capable of altering testosterone so that it forms estradiol - an estrogen derivative. Estrogen is structurally similar to testosterone and it is present in the male body, but to a much smaller extent than testosterone. Since aromatase can aromatize many anabolic-androgenic steroids, increased levels of estrogen can be a concern for the on-cycle bodybuilder. These levels can cause side effects, the main one being gyno (the development of female breast tissue in men). Symptoms that gyno is developing are itchy nipples, swelling or a small lump under the nipple which is normally painful to the touch. If nolvadex is not on hand during cycle and this lump is left to develop, it can increase in size and may become impossible to get rid of in any method short of surgery. The surgery required for gyno is a simple procedure, but if this can be prevented in some way, most athletes would be willing to make the choices required to do so. High levels of estrogen also lead to an increased level of water retained in the body. The obvious result here is a loss in overall muscular definition - or that "bloated" look. This look is caused by the retention of subcutaneous fluid which will make the athlete look more smooth. Normally this is not a problem for the athlete bulking up, and preventative measures are not an important concern. As estrogen levels rise in the body, fat storage may also be increased. Estrogen is the main reason why women have a higher percentage of body fat compared to men. It is always a smart idea to have all ancillary drugs on hand, including anti-estrogenic drugs such as nolvadex, before commencing a cycle. For it symptoms occur during cycle, you may find that you are unable to obtain such drugs and from there, complications can arise.

Nolvadex shows potential to increase production of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and lutenizing hormone (LH) in the male body which are both important to the enhanced athlete. This is the result of blocking the negative feedback inhibition caused by estrogen at the hypothalamus and pituitary. As a result, the hormones mentioned are released. Both clomid and cyclofenil also have this function. Nolvadex is also able to have an impact on an individual's level of serum testosterone. This is important for post cycle therapy when this testosterone stimulating effect is most beneficial. Nolvadex can help restore hormonal balance post cycle, which is also very important to the athlete.

Either nolvadex or clomid can be used on-cycle as anti-estrogens and post-cycle to help normalize testosterone production quickly. HCG can provide an excessive level of stimulation to the testes, which has the ability to shock them out of a long state of inactivity. Generally HCG is not necessary in small cycles where dosages are kept low. However, it will help normalize things faster than if it is not used, so many choose to run it on-cycle for this added benefit.

A standard dosage of nolvadex on cycle as an anti-estrogen would be 10-30mg a day. The amount used would depend on what effect the user would like to elicit. More would clearly elicit a stronger effect, but users should determine how much they will require by starting at lower dosages and working their way up, so as not to use more than they require for the desired effect. For those steroid users who are using highly aromatizing substances (such as testosterone suspension), or those who have a sensitivity to estrogen, using nolvadex during cycle will probably be a smart idea to start early in the cycle.

STACKING AND USE:

If problems of gyno show up during a cycle, the use of 20-30 mg of nolvadex should take care of the problem, and this quantity of nolvadex should be used until several days after symptoms subside just to be safe. 100mg of clomid, the weaker counterpart of nolvadex, can also be used to contain these problems. Using anti-estrogens or aromatase inhibitors during cycle will reduce your gains, so they are not recommended to use concurrently unless gyno or estrogen related symptoms show up. Exceptions to this are for users who are highly sensitive to estrogen (for example those with a genetic predisposition to gyno), or those using highly aromatizing substances.

Once a cycle of steroids is finished, post cycle therapy should always be included in order to bring back normal levels of testosterone production which have been suppressed for the length of the cycle. If only oral steroids were used, post cycle therapy should start immediately. If short acting esters or water based injectables were used, PCT should start within 4-7 days after the last injection was made, and if longer acting esters were used, PCT should start 1.5-3 weeks after the last injection (depending on the specific steroid). The length of PCT normally runs between 3-5 weeks. The general rule of thumb is that the longer acting the product cycled was, the longer the therapy should be. When used properly, nolvadex can help the athlete regain natural production and normalize all other factors fairly quickly. Doses of both clomid and nolvadex are tapered down.
Standard Nolvadex Post Cycle Therapy

Week 1 (or 2): 40-50 mg of nolvadex daily.
Week 2 (or 3) - Week 4 (or 5): 20-25mg of nolvadex daily.

Proviron

2009-04-28T04:39:00.004+08:00

Proviron (mesterolone) is basically an orally active DHT (Dihydrotestosterone) preparation. For comparision, we can think of some other orally prepared DHT compounds like Winstrol, Anavar, etc& Those both act very similarly in mechanism to Proviron, but a more accurate way to think of this compound is as something like "Oral Masteron." As I´m sure you noticed, their anabolic/androgenic ratio is very similar.Remember, DHT is 3 to 4 times as androgenic as testosterone and is, of course, incapable of forming estrogen. Also, Proviron is quite unique in that a simple look at it´s 4-ring structure will show us that it is not going to be too liver toxic, since it is not c17-Alpha-Alkylated, as many orals are& this modification (lacking in Proviron) makes drugs more liver toxic. Proviron has a 1-metyhl group added, instead. Looks pretty great on paper, right? Well, as usual, things tend to look better on paper than they do in the body. Your body has a negative feedback loop which prevents your body from having too much DHT floating around(if you´ve been paying attention up to now from reading my other stuff, you already know this). An excess of DHT will eventually be changed into another (largely not anabolic) compound.

And of course, being a DHT-based compound, this stuff isn´t going to be great for female athletes to use. Virilization (development of male sexual characteristics) is going to be a concern for women daring enough to try this stuff. My advice is that there is much better, safer compounds for female athletes and bodybuilders to use.

So lets go back to the comparison with being some sort of "Oral Masteron"& basically since Proviron is 5-alpha reduced and not capable of forming estrogen, and also has a very high affinity for binding to the aromatase enzyme (the enzyme responsible for converting all that good testosterone in your body into all that nasty estrogen). That means if you choose to take proviron with testosterone (and I know you wouldn´t even be doing a cycle without including some form of testosterone) and/or any aromatizable steroid, it should actually serve to prevent estrogen build up by the aforementioned binding to the aromatase enzyme, which prevents aromatase from doing it´s dirty work and making a bunch of estrogen out of the other steroids you are taking. It should also be noted that Proviron also binds very well to SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin& a hormone responsible for reducing the amount of circulating free testosterone in your body)(1). As a matter of fact, in the last study I read, it bound to SHBG better than any other drug studied. Also, I´d like to note that Proviron bound to the Anabolic Receptor better than any oral anabolic (except for the insanely toxic MethylTrienolone), having an ability to bind to the AR better then testosterone, but not as well as Nandrolone (1). Unfortunately, as we know, DHT also has a high affinity for binding to receptors in the scalp and prostate, causing some possible nasty side effects, like male pattern baldness and prostate enlargement. It´s important to remember that DHT and DHT derived compounds are used quite successfully to treat gynocomastia, and in this area, Proviron is no different.

Let´s delve into some of the positive points of this drug before we go any farther. Androgen Receptors are found in fat cells as well as muscle cells(5), and whilethey act on the AR in muscle cells to promote growth, they also act directly on the AR in fat cells to affect fat burning.(9)(3) The stronger the androgen binds to the A.R, the higher the lipolytic (fat burning) effect on adipose (fat)tissue(6)(2). As if that´s not enough good news, some steroids (notably, testosterone) even increase the numbers of A.R. in muscle and fat (9)(7). Thus, if you are taking a simple stack of proviron and testosterone, you´ll have more of the test you shoot as free testosterone floating around building muscle (compliments of the Proviron), more androgen receptors to be bound to (compliments of your testosterone) by your Proviron, thus causing more fat loss. Testosterone and Proviron are a very nice synergistic stack, pretty nearly an "ideal" stack of an oral and injectable, because both drugs will actually act to enhance the effect of the other.

So what we have here is a steroid which can basically make other steroids more effective by preventing their conversion into estrogen, as well as increasing the amount of circulating free testosterone in your body. This of course all provides a more hardened and quality look to muscles. Proviron is very much a "synergistic" drug in this respect, and it´s inclusion in any cycle would definitely make all of the other steroids perform better, and provide better gains. This is all compounded by the fact that proviron is a very lipolytic (fat-burning) drug.

Now, as if all of this weren´t enough, let´s talk about how Proviron affects your HPTA (Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Testicular-Axis)& the thing that regulates the male hormonal system. When a reasonable dose of this stuff is given (100-150mgs/day), it had no depressing effect on low or normal serum FSH and LH levels (6). Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Leutenizing Hormone (LH) are two hormones which send a signal to your testes to produce testosterone. Good news for people considering it for PCT is that it can even raise your LH (10)! Thus, by not suppressing those hormones and maybe even raising some, your normal testosterone levels will remain intact. This points to a novel use for this compound during Post-Cycyle-Therapy for a non-suppressive "bridge" between cycles. In fact, in yet another study, administration of Proviron (basically the same dose as in the last study) produced no changes in steroids, thyroid hormones, gonadotropins nor PRL (Prolactin Levels& you want those to remain low). (8).

Unfortunately, this stuff is not too hot on it´s own. It´s a good drug for inclusion in a cycle containing testosterone and other armoatizable steroids, and it´s a good drug for a possible "bridge" between cycles. Alone, however, as an androgenic or anabolic agent, it´s effects have been very weak in both studies (9), as well as in the experience of everyone I spoke to about it. This may be due to the addition of the 1-methyl-group to DHT, which makes this stuff orally active. Whatever the case, as a stand alone anabolic or androgenic compound, it´s not too impressive.

Sustanon 250 - Mass , Strength & Condition 250mg/amp

2009-04-26T00:13:00.008+08:00

This product was the first multi-estered blend of testosterone available on the market, and was developed by Organon as an ideal HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) solution. To this day, most multi-estered blends are often referred to as the “(drug name) version of Sustanon” and many underground labs produce their own testosterone blends with a different number at the end (ex: “Sustanon 250” or whatever). It was meant to give the user consistently elevated blood levels of testosterone over the course of a month, and thus eliminate the need for frequent trips to the doctors office for injections.Since this Steriod is made up of 4 different tests and each one is designed to give maximum strength and size results.With this one would expect alot of water retentionbut this is not the case.Due to the testosterone are given in small amount, water retention is kept to a minimum (varies with individual). For some reason, sometimes it might be painful to inject for some individuals..in that case, I would suggest warming up the vial in a cup of WARM water and that should resolve the problem in most cases.
This drug was very popular in the 80’s and 90’s, and was often thought of as being a “stack” in one drug. This isn’t really accurate, because, in the end all you have is testosterone once your body has metabolized it.

It means that it will cause muscle growth as well as fat loss, by sending a message to your muscles to store more protein (that’s its primary anabolic effect), while also protecting your muscles from catabolic (muscle wasting) (1). It will also change both the appearance and the actual number of muscle fibers in your body(2). We also find that aggression levels rise with the use of any form of testosterone (3), and it also increases erythropoiesis (red blood cell production) in your kidneys(4). This higher Red Blood Cell (RBC) count may actually improve endurance. Thus, it’s appropriate to say that Sustanon will increase strength, size, aggression, and maybe even endurance but certainly work capacity and recovery. More RBCs can also improve recovery from strenuous physical activity. In addition, Testosterone improves muscle contractile ability by two mechanisms: increasing the number of motor neutrons in muscle(5) and improving neuromuscular transmission(6). Also, testosterone is a well known promoter of glycogen synthesis.(7)

Stacking and Use:

Because of its long-acting components, sustanon is mostly used as a form of long-acting testosterone. In such use doses of 250 to 500mg per week are used in a single injection, with decent results nonetheless.(every 5 to 7 days )

Again, because of the two medium-length and the long ester, the compound is not very controllable. So when problems occur, simply discontinuing the product is not an option. One needs to be familiar with anti-estrogenic compounds for one. When signs of gyno appear using 20-40 mg/day of the estrogen antagonist Nolvadex or 100-150 mg/day of its weaker counterpart clomid until a few days after symptoms disappear is advised. The best way to avoid such problems is running proviron or arimidex, aromatase blockers, alongside the product. Proviron at 50-100 mg per day may be wiser since it frees up more testosterone.

Of course the simultaneous use of an aromatase blocker will compromise your gains since it literally stops estrogen from being made. Androgenic problems can be reduced to some extent by the use of finasteride, which will stop the conversion of testosterone to its more androgenic component DHT. This may alleviate aggravated hair loss and prostate problems somewhat. Again, the blocking of such a conversion may decrease the gains made and will in any case heighten the risk for estrogenic side-effects, since DHT acts as an anti-estrogen. Proviron is also a form of DHT, so people worried about androgenic side-effects should then naturally opt for arimidex over proviron when they choose an aromatase blocker as well.

Sustanon stacks well with any compound. Usually testosterone is always the stronger compound in the stack, so whenever you stack something alongside its usually because the drug has certain characteristics. Usually this means it will be a milder drug that will allow the user a milder cycle with lower occurrence of side-effects than simply using more testosterone, without having to give up all of the potential gains. Deca-Durabolin, Equipoise and Primobolan are some of the more fitting compounds for this purpose. But naturally the king of all mass-builders stacks well with almost anything.

Testosterone Enanthate - Mass & Strength 250mg/amp

2009-04-25T23:59:00.013+08:00

Still one of the most popular mass building steroids around and one of the oldest. It is highly androgenic and aromatizes quite easily in some people ,others not.That is why it is one of those steriods that has to be tried first to see if it suits you.This steroid is very popular among strength athletes.
Testosterone is the prime male androgen in the body, and as such still the best possible mass builder in the world. It has a high risk of side-effects because it readily converts to a more androgenic form (DHT) in androgen responsive tissues and forms estrogen quite easily. But these characteristics also provide it with its extreme anabolic tendencies. On the one hand estrogen increases growth hormone output, glucose utilization, improves immunity and upgrades the androgen receptor, while on the other hand a testosterone/DHT combination is extremely potent at activating the androgen receptor and eliciting major strength and size gains. While not always the most visually appealing result, there is no steroid on earth that packs on mass like testosterone does.

Like testosterone cypionate, enanthate is a single-ester and long-acting form of the base steroid testosterone. To me, its slightly better value for money than the aforementioned because its ester is only 7 instead of 8 carbons in length. Where that doesn't really change much in terms of release and blood concentration for users who inject on a weekly basis, that does mean that less of the weight is ester and more of it is testosterone. When taking an amount of an esterified steroid, that amount in terms of weight is a combination of the ester and the steroid. Naturally the longer the ester is, the more of the weight it takes up. So its safe to state that 500 mg of enanthate contains more testosterone than does 500 mg of cypionate. Not that this slight difference will be noted on a weekly pattern really, but its enough for me to give it a slight edge if given the choice. Although, as stated with cypionate, your choice between enanthate and cypionate is best based on availability. These are a much better choice than sustanon 250 or omnadren, which are blends of different testosterone esters, due to their irregular release. Nonetheless these versions still appear to be more popular with most users for some reason. Before you compare these to shorter esters under the pretense that even more of the weight would be testosterone, for bulking purposes the release pattern and injection pattern of an enanthate or cypionate is more fitting than that of say, a propionate ester. Enanthate and cypionate are very close in those terms, hence the comparison is possible.

A long-acting testosterone ester may be the best for all your mass-building needs, but its not an easy product to use. Because of the extreme length of action (3-4 weeks) one cannot easily solve occurring problems by simply discontinuing the product, as it will continue to act and aggravate side-effects over extended periods of time. In regards to damage control and post-cycle therapy, some familiarity with the use of ancillary drugs is required prior to using a long-acting testosterone product. Nolvadex and Proviron will come in very handy in such cases and post-cycle HCG and clomid or Nolvadex will be required as well to help restore natural testosterone. Frequency of side-effects is probably highest with this type of product.

While most will tell you it's a waste to not use testosterone, as it will take ages longer to build proper mass, these are all points to take into consideration. Testosterone is a product that is heavily used by beginners and veterans alike and justly so. Those who fear they may never understand the proper use of ancillary drugs, may want to suck it up and invest in some propionate or suspension testosterones instead. These are much shorter acting and easier to control, but they do need to be injected once every two days, whereas this type of ester will impart great gains with a single weekly injection. Something to keep in mind.

Stacking and Use:

Testosterone is the most powerful compound there is, so obviously its perfectly fine to use it by itself. With a long-acting ester like Enanthate doses of 500 to 1000 mg per week are used with very clear results over a 10 week period. If you've ever seen a man swell up with sheer size, then testosterone was the cause of it. But testosterone is nonetheless often stacked. Due to the high occurrence of side-effects, people will usually split up a stack in testosterone and a milder component in order to obtain a less risky cycle, but without having to give up as much of the gains. Primobolan, Equipoise and Deca-Durabolin are the weapons of choice in this matter.

Deca seems to be the most popular, probably because of its extremely mild androgenic nature. But Deca being one of the highest risks for just about every other side-effects, I probably wouldn't advise it. If Deca is used, generally a dose of 200-400 mg is added to 500-750 mg of testosterone per week. Primobolan is sometimes opted for, and can be handy since it doesn't aromatize, which will make the total level of water retention and fat gain a lot less than with more test or with Deca for example. Unfortunately, its mild nature combined with a lack of estrogen make Primobolan a very poor mass builder. Again, doses of 300-400 mg are used. I would actually suggest a higher dose, but with the current prices for Primo I don't think it would be very popular. My personal preference goes out to Equipoise. Androgenically its not that much stronger than Deca because it has next to no affinity for the 5-alpha-reductase enzyme and is only half as androgenic as testosterone. Its twice as strong as Deca, mg for mg, and has a lower occurrence of side-effects. It has some estrogen, but not a whole lot so it actually tends to lean a person out rather than bloat him up as Deca will. It also increases appetite, which promotes gains, and improves aerobic performance, which may be wishful as testosterone normally has an opposite effect.

Of course testosterone Enanthate can be stacked with any number of compounds apart from these, but these make the best match. When stacking with testosterone, one needs to look at what the other compound can bring. Either it has a characteristic that testosterone doesn't have, or its nominally safer. The testosterone will bring all the mass, so adding another steroid to enhance mass alone, is futile. More testosterone is the best remedy for that.

One needs to be familiar with a host of other compounds when using long-acting testosterone esters however. First of all, anti-estrogens. The rate of aromatization of testosterone is quite great, so water retention and fat gain are a fact and gyno is never far off. If problems occur one is best to start on 20 mg of Nolvadex per day and stay on that until problems subside. I wouldn't stay on it for a whole cycle, as it may reduce the gains. In terms of an aromatase blocker, testosterone is one of the few compounds where Proviron may actually be preferred over arimidex. The proviron will not only reduce estrogen and can be used for extended time on a testosterone cycle, it will also bind with great affinity to sex-hormone binding proteins in the blood and will allow for a higher level of free testosterone in the body, thus improving gains. Usually 50-100 mg will suffice, the lower end is preferred for maximal results since estrogen plays a key role in gains, but those more worried about estrogen should opt for a higher dose.

For those worried about androgenic side-effects (hair loss, prostate hypertrophy, deepening of voice), one can utilize the hair loss treatment finasteride. This blocks the 5-alpha-reductase enzyme and stops the conversion of testosterone to the more androgenic compound DHT. I'm not a big fan of this, because DHT reduces estrogenic bloat, increases free levels of testosterone and is a very potent androgen that is 3-4 times stronger than testosterone. Those worried about hair loss however, may want to opt for arimidex as their anti-aromatase, since Proviron is a form of DHT after all.

Since it's a non-toxic, potent mass-builder its mostly used in long 10-12 week cycles. So some testicular shrinkage will have occurred too.Nolvadex/clomid are essential as a post-cycle therapy, and that both are equally important in achieving our goal.Nolvadex/Clomid cycle should be started. 40 mg of Nolva or 150 mg of Clomid per day for two weeks, followed by two more weeks with either 20 mg of Nolva or 100 mg of Clomid per day should be adequate.
