HGH cycle

Growth Hormone Cycles

The cycle of human growth hormone (HGH) is good for athletes who want to get a muscle relief. Saizen – HGH (Somatropin) also has rejuvenating effect; it increases the elasticity of muscles and improves the properties of skin.In this article we collected the most efficient and rational doses and combinations.

Who can usegrowth hormone?

Both men and women over the age of 20 can use Growth hormone in order to improve muscle relief. In people under this age it may cause asymmetrical bone development. During the cycle your total mass may slightly increase due to intensive fat loss. HGH has very low rate of side effects, and they usually disappear after discontinuation of the drug.

Since Saizen – HGH (Somatropin) is an antagonist of insulin, people suffering from diabetes should strictly control their blood glucose levels using a glucometer. Besides, they should adjust the insulin usage during HGH cycle. As a rule, when taking HGH at the doses up to 10 I.U./day, the correction of insulin doseswill be + 1-3 units before each meal(20-30 min).

There is an opinion thatgrowth hormone is prohibited for diabetics, but it is not so. Since HGH has rejuvenating effect and greatly improves the functioning of internal organs, it can be very beneficial in fighting this disease.

Hypertensives also should be cautious while takinggrowth hormone. However, in this case you can avoid health problems by reducing the intake of salt (sodium chloride).

Before HGH cycle you should make tests for such cancer markers as CA19-9, CA72-4, Cyfra 21-1, AFP (Alfa-fetoprotein), RAE (Rakovo embryonic antigen). In case of deviation do not use this substance. Anyway, before taking this drug you should consult your doctor.

Growth Hormone Cycle # 1

The cycle starts with 5I.U. / day. Do a single subcutaneous injection. If you do not have side-effects, increase the daily dosage up to 10 I.U.starting from the 2nd or 3rd week. Divide this dosage into 2 injections. It is better totake Saizen – HGH (Somatropin) on an empty stomach (about 0.5-1 hour before the meal, when the level of glucose is minimal). The best time for injection is immediately after sleep or after training.

The optimal length of growth hormone cycle is 3-6 months. Shorter cycles will be less effective, meanwhile longer cycles may cause tolerance (antibodies against growth hormone) and side effects.

Since the Saizen – HGH (Somatropin) can suppress thyroid function, which makes it less effective, it is advisable to include thyroxin at the dosage of 25 mcg/day throughout the cycle. It will make your cycle safer and more efficient, as thyroxin is a powerful fat burner.

Remember that large doses of HGH (more than 5 I.U. / day) increase the levelof glucose in the blood. By using portable glucometer make glucose measurements 3 times a day. In case of high doses and long cycle it is recommended to take insulin in order to avoid development of diabetes. However, take it with caution since excessive insulin can cause hypoglycemic coma.

Alternatively, you can use Metformin (Glucophage) instead of insulin, which also has fat burning effect.
For optimal results you should do 2-3 strength trainings and 2-3 aerobic trainingsa week.

There is also an alternative way of taking growth hormone- 2.5-3 I.U./ day. In this case you will have slow oncoming ofeffect, however this cycle will be without side effects.

The combination of HGH + Steroids

Do growth hormone cycle # 1as a basis. Include Testosterone Enanthateor Sustanon 250 at the dosage250-500 mg / week. HGH goes well also withBoldenone 400 mg / week. The usual duration of steroid intake is 8 weeks.

This combination causes intensive muscle growth and simultaneous fat burning. Since steroids and growth hormone have different mechanisms of action, at moderate doses they can provide synergetic effect without side effects.However, after steroid cycle you should do PCT.

If your priority is muscle relief, takeAnavar (30-50 mg / day, every day) or Winstrol (30 mg / day, every day), instead of above-mentioned steroids. These drugs are more suitable for cutting purposes, meanwhile they stimulate muscle growth to a lesser extent.

For better results follow a diet according to your goals (mass gaining or cutting). Alternatively,you can do growth hormone cycle right after steroid cycle.

The combination of HGH + Fat Burners

Do growth hormone cycle # 1 as a basis. Include thyroxin at the dose of 100-200 mcg / day (divide it into 3 doses). Take it in the morning, at lunch and in the evening (before 18:00). At these dosesthyroxin will provide a powerful fat-burning effect. However, do not increase the dose, as there is a risk of side effects.

You should start taking thyroxin at small doses. Begin with 50 mcg / day, then increase the dosage by 25 mcg every other day, until you reach the recommended dose. In case of side effectsreduce the dose. Take thyroxin for no more than 1 month, then gradually reduce the dose by 25 mcg every other day until complete withdrawal.

Alternatively, you can use :clen: and Ephedrine. Although these drugs can significantly speed up fat burning, they may increase the risk of side effects.

For optimal results you should follow a fat burning diet. Reduce the amount of fast carbohydrates and fats. Take at least 250 grams of protein a day. Drink more fluids. Do 1-2 strength trainingsa week, as well as 2-4 aerobic trainings a week for at least 1 hour.

How to use Grow Growth Hormone

HGH comes in the form of freeze-dried powder. The vial should contain the scale of measurement. If it indicates milligrams (mg) instead of units, you should convert it into units according to the formula 1mg = 3 units. More precisely,1 mg is equal 2.7 units, however we use the formula 1mg = 3 units, asmost manufacturers use it.

1. Wipe the caps of vials with alcohol (both HGH and water for dilution).

2. Take a syringe with a needle of 1″or 1.5″ in diameter. Draw the necessary amount of water for dilution. Use such quantity of water that will make it easy to measure the final solution. For example: if you take 1ml of water for 10 units of growth hormone powder, then every 10 scale mark on a U100 syringe will be equal to 1 unit of growth hormone.

If you take 2ml of fluid for 10 units of growth hormone powder, every 20 scale mark on U100 syringe will be equal to 1 unit of growth hormone. If you take 3ml of water for 10 units of growth hormone powder, every 30 scale mark on a U100 syringe will be equal to 1 unit of growth hormone.

3. Slowly inject the water for dilution into the vial with HGH powder, so that the needle touches the wall of a vial.

4. Then gently twist the ampoule (DO NOT shake) until the powder completely dissolves. After dilution the solution must be clear liquid, now you can use it. Keep HGH solution in the refrigerator. If you use bactericidal water you can store the solution for 3 weeks. In case of sterile water you can store it only for 5 days (some manufacturers claim 72 hours).

Injection of Growth Hormone

  • Properly wash your hands with soap
  • Draw the solution into the insulin syringe
  • Wrinkle the skin on the abdominal area with your left hand
  • Insert the needle at the angle of 45 degrees into the fold
  • Inject the solution and remove the needle
  • Every time change the spot of injection

There are several reliable sources where you can buy anabolic steroids:

Testosterone

General

Testosterone is the major male hormone, at the same time it is a powerful anabolic steroid. In malesit is responsible for development of male reproductive organs.

This hormone also promotes secondary sexual characteristics. It increasesmuscle mass, induce growth of body hair etc.Besides, it improves well-being and strengthens bones. Therefore, the lack of this hormone may cause bone loss and frailty.

 

role of testosterone in male
role of testosterone in male

It belongs to androstane family of steroids. Naturally it originates from cholesterol. Its final destination is liver, which transform it into inactive metabolites. Testosterone produces its effects through binding to androgen receptors.

The major source of testosterone in humans, as well as other vertebrates, is testes. Female ovaries also synthesize it, but much less. As a rulemales produce about 20 times more testosterone than females.

However, owing to higher metabolism, the concentration of testosterone in males is approximately 8 times higher than in females. This is also the reason of higher sensitivity of females to this hormone.

Testosterone is widely used for treatment of male testosterone deficiency (also ageing related) andcertain types of cancer in women. Meanwhile athletes use it to improve physique and performance.

Biologic effects

In the organism testosterone induces protein synthesis in tissues with androgen receptors. As a result, it causes growth of these tissues. This hormone has both androgenic and anabolic effect.

• Anabolic effect includesincrease of muscle mass and strength, linear growth and strengthening of bones and their maturation.

• Androgenic effect includes development and maturation of reproductive organs (penis, scrotum), as well as secondary sexual characteristics – voicedeepening, growth of facial and underarm hair.

Athletics

As we mentioned above athletes use Testosterone to increase muscle growth, strength and stamina. This happens owing to high protein synthesis in muscle cells. Thus, this hormone increases the size of muscles and speed up repair processes.

Testosterone Containing Products

Testosterone Cypionate
Easilyaromatizable; like other testosterones, it makes water retention a problem for many users. It is moderately toxic to the liver

Testosterone Enanthate
A bit heavier molecule with less prolonged activity than in Cypionate

Testosterone Propionate
Much faster acting than Cypionate and Enanthate. Also with less pronouncedandrogenic effects.

TestoJect, Aquatest
The most powerful testosterone. It is a pure testosterone without ester attached.

Testosterone Undecanoate (Nebido)
A uniquemedical product with extremely long action. It is widely used for testosterone replacement therapy.

Sustanon
Sustanon 250 – oil-based injectable mixture of 4testosteroneesters.
Sustanon 100 – similar blend, though with 3esters. Small doses of this drug are for paediatric use.

Testogel
is used as a cure for Testosterone deficiency in men.
Standalone usage is just fine for testosterone-replacement therapy.

Side effects

Androgenic side effects include oily skin, acne, alopecia etc. You can prevent them by using 5α-reductase inhibitors. In women it may cause virilization: voice deepening, excessive growth of body hair, clitoris enlargement etc.

Exogenous testosterone can suppress spermatogenesis in men, which may lead to reversible infertility. Since testosterone is prone to aromatization, at high doses it may cause gynecomastia.

However, you can prevent it by using aromataze inhibitors (read more about aromatization). Other side effects include mood changes, increased aggression and sex drive, spontaneous erections etc.

Interaction

5α-Reductase inhibitors
Such drugs asPropecia (Finasteride) can increase theamount of testosterone by suppressing its metabolism. On the one hand such medications reduce androgenic side effects, for example alopecia, acne, prostate hypertrophy.

On the other hand they reduce the natural levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which is also important androgen for development of certaintissues. For example, they may delay puberty.

Besides 5α-reductase inhibitors suppress transformation of testosterone into 3α-androstanediol(important neurosteroid), which may lead to definite neuropsychiatric issues.

Aromatase inhibitors

Aromatase inhibitors (e.g. Anastrozole) suppress aromatase activity, thus preventing transformation of testosterone into estradiol. Since there is low level of testosterone transformation in the body, this does not influence the levels of this hormone.

However, it greatly reduce the risks of estrogen related side effects, such as gynecomastia. As estradiol negatively affects the hypothalamic–pituitary–testes axis (HPTA), the inhibition of its production may have positive feedback and increase the amount of endogenous testosterone.

Therefore, men suffering from secondary hypogonadism undergo Testosterone therapy along with aromatase inhibitors.

Conclusions

Due to its powerful effect on muscle growth, Testosterone is one of the most popular steroids amongathletes. Although it has some side effects, they can be prevented by definite medications (aromatase inhibitors, 5α-Reductase inhibitors).

DecaDurabolin in bodybuilding

Deca-Durabolin (Nandrolone Decanoate) is a powerful steroid for gaining muscle mass. In comparison with testosterone it has very low androgenic activity thou less androgenic side effects. It’s important to know that nandrolone is naturally produced in each person. The half-life of this steroid is 7-10 days.

Like withmany other esterified AAS, it takes time for the organism to detach ester and make this steroid active. That’s why Deca-Durabolin remains active for more than 2 weeks. Its conversion into dihydronadrolone explains low androgenic activity of this steroid, since dihydronadrolone is rather weak substance in comparison to dihydrotestosterone.

Steroid characteristics

  • Duration of activity – 2 weeks
  • Available forms – injection
  • Hepatotoxicity – no
  • Aromatization – low
  • Progestogenic activity – yes
  • Conversion into dihydrotestosterone – no
  • Anabolic properties – 150%
  • Androgenic properties – 30%
  • HPTA suppression – yes
  • Doping tests – detectable during 22 months

The effects of DecaDurabolin

  • Slowly increases muscle mass, but the gains are good.
  • Strengthens the bones
  • Reduces joint pain due to higher production of synovial fluid
  • Improves endurance and immunity

How to use

Medical doses do not provide high anabolic effects. Therefore, the doses for athletes are much higher and vary from 200 mg to 600 mg. The duration of a Deca cycles is about 2 – 2.5 months. It’s important to know that there is certain delay in effect.

Sometimes women take this steroid. Due to progestogenic properties it’s necessary to take Dostinex. Also don’t forget that proper nutrition is important to achieve optimal results. One cannot call Nandrolone Decanoate an ideal steroid, since there are more powerful AAS.
However, unlike those super drugs, Nandrolone is rather safe and suitable for everybody. Therefore it is so popular among athletes.

Combinations

Bodybuilders know that while using Deca the best results can be achieved in combinations with other steroids. Besides, a combination may decrease adverse effects. Usually athletes combine it with Testosterone and Methane.
Here is an example of a very popular mass gaining combination with Testosterone Enanthate.

In order to reduce possible side effects you should include Proviron (Masterlone) and Dostinex into your cycle plan.
A combination of Deca with Methane

PCT is required after each Deca cycle. Remember that :tamoxife: nis not suitable in this case (also after Trenbolone cycles), since it increases the levels of prolactin. Therefore you have to chose between Clomid and Toremifene.

Side effects

Nandrolone has low level of aromatization, which is about 20% in comparison with Testosterone. Thus there are low risks of estrogen related side effects. However, in case of overdose they are possible. You can easily avoid them by taking aromatase inhibitors.

Like all 19-nor steroids, Nandrolone (as well as Trenbolone) has progestogenic activity which can cause estrogen-like side effects, including gynecomastia and water retention. In order to prevent them you should take Dostinex.

As we said above androgenic activity of DecaDurabolin is rather low (about 30% of Testosterone). However, one should remember that threshold of androgenic side effects is higher than in Testosterone or Methandienone.

Thus one cannot negate the possibility of androgenic side effects, which include acne, baldness and hypertrophy of prostate. In women it can cause virilization. We do not recommend to take Finasteride, since it is not effective against dihydronandrolone and may worsen the situation.

Deca is liver friendly, since it is not alkylated. Like all anabolic steroids Nandrolone can change the lipoprotein balance. It leads to reduction of high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and increases the risk of atherosclerosis. This side effect is dosage dependent.

Remember that anabolic steroids negatively affect blood pressure, triglyceride levels, and the ability of blood vessels to relax, which increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Thus, you should pay attention to your nutrition plan and include omega 3 fatty acids into your diet.

Nandrolone can significantly suppress HPTA. Scientists suggest that it is due to progestogenic activity of this drug. Therefore in order to avoid this side effect we recommend 0.5 mg of Dostinex two times a week. In case of long cycles it is necessary to take Gonadotropin.

There are several reliable sources where you can buy anabolic steroids:

Androgens

General

Androgens (from Greek “andro” – male) – are male hormones. Testosterone is one of them.
These hormones are responsible for male sexual functions and development of “male” physique. Estrogens are female hormones, which are opposite to androgens.

One should know that both sexes produce androgens and estrogens. However, women produce much less androgens than men, whereas men produce much less estrogens than women.

Effects of androgens

  • Increase the excitability of psychosexual centers in central nervous system
  • Increase libido in both sexes
  • Strengthen erections in men and erection of clitoris in women
  • Lower blood glucose
  • Increase muscle mass and strength
  • Speed up regeneration of tissues
  • Increase the synthesis of proteins and inhibit their decay

Testosterone is a major male androgen. It forms a part of most anabolic compounds.
All organisms have different reaction to Androgens. It depends on receptor sensitivity to androgens. So the higher the sensitivity the smaller is the dose required for the same effect.

According to different reports, one can improve the sensitivity by:

  • Training with heavier weight
  • Consumption of high protein food
  • Taking L-caranitine (red meat, avocado, soy)

Side effects of Androgens

Androgens can induce the growth of already existing (undiagnosed) prostate cancer in men.They also may cause prostate enlargement, which doesn’t mean cancer, however it’s better to see a doctor in this case.

High doses of androgens may cause virilization (man-like features) in females– deepening of voice, excessive body hair growth, clitoris enlargement etc. Some of changes may disappear after discontinuation of the drug. However, some of them may stay (e.g. voice deepening and clitoris enlargement).

At high doses androgens can affect the sperm production in men. But this effect is transient and occurs only during the intake. Howbeit if you are planning to have children you should consult a doctor before taking these drugs.

Since Androgens are “male” hormones, the following side effects are quite natural:

  • deepening of voice
  • increased growth of hair on face and body
  • high sweat secretion
  • irritability, aggression

also in women:

  • decreased size of breast
  • irregular menstrual cycles
  • increase of female genitals

Less significant or temporary side effects:

  • Nausea
  • Dizziness
  • Headache
  • Weakness
  • Redness of the skin

Antiandrogens

Anti-androgen are substances that block androgen receptor, thus preventing the effect of androgens. They can slow down androgen-dependent types of cancer (e.g. prostate cancer) and shrink the tumors.

Nevertheless, they cannot stop androgen production. Anti-androgensare often used in combination with other treatments, such as surgical or chemical castration.

Side effects of anti-androgens:

  • Decreased libido
  • Depression
  • High levels of liver enzymes
  • Reduction of body hair
  • Birth defects if taken during pregnancy
  • Hepatitis
  • Liver injury
  • Erectile dysfunction
  • Diarrhea
  • Breasttenderness
  • Menstrual irregularity
  • Skin rash

Before taking these drugs ask your doctor to choose an anti-androgen with lowest side effects.

Conclusions

One should remember that anti-androgens cannot suppress all the androgenic side effects. Therefore, in case of androgenic side effects, it’s better to lower of using androgen containing drug.
Take anti-androgens only in extreme cases.

Do not forget about proper nutrition, healthy sleep and walking outdoors.

Estrogen related side effects

Steroid aromatization

Nowadays most athletes take steroids in order to get optimal results. However, the intake of AAS may lead to certain side-effects. Estrogen relatedside-effects caused by aromatization, are probably the most unpleasant ones.

Therefore, athletes are trying to find unaromatizable steroids, which is a misconception, as all steroids are aromatizable to some extent. Today we will regard the issues of aromatization and estrogen related side-effects.

Aromatization

One should understand that steroids do not cause aromatization. This is a naturally occuring process which converts testosterone into estrogens. The enzyme responsible for this conversion is called Aromatase. This is where the term “aromatization” comes from.

The major task of aromatization is the creation of cholesterol and fats. However, when the excessive amount of male hormone gets into the body, the organism tends to keep the balance, thus transforming it into estrogens.

In its turn, this transformation produces the excess of estrogens, which leads to gynecomastia, also known as gyno or “bitch tits”.Each organism has its own number of aromatase enzyme. The higher is this number, the more testosterone transforms into estrogens.

Therefore, athletes with high amount of aromatase enzyme has higher risks of estrogenic side effects. They should pay special attention to antiestrogens while going through steroid cycle.

Testosterone

Normally males produce around 7 mg of testosterone a day. However, it is not enough to cause massive muscle growth. But one can trigger this growth by taking exogenous testosterone. Since the usual dosage is around 100 mg, our body tries to get rid of the excess, by initiating aromatization.

Estrogen

It’s important to know, that both males and females produce estrogen. Though it is regarded as “female hormone”, it plays important role in males too. Estrogen is a natural steroid, which performs specific functions in male organism, including:

  • growth ofbones
  • development of reproductive system
  • regulation of body temperature
  • memory function
  • and even muscle growth in combination with testosterone.

Therefore, one shouldn’t regard it as “evil”. Estrogen is good when its amount is within norm, but when it is too high, it may lead to undesirable side effects.

Gynecomastia

It is estrogen that makes the shape of female body. As a sex hormone it helps females to mature for childbirth, breastfeeding, and pregnancy. Due to aromatization the intake of steroids without antiestrogens may elevate the level of estrogen in males.

This in turn causes growth of breast tissue and female type fat deposition. In other words, the excess of estrogens can reshape the male body into female one. Luckily one can easily avoid this unpleasant side effect by using antiestrogens.

Water retention

Excessive levels of estrogen may cause water retention, which means accumulation of water in the tissues of an organism. It makes your body look puffy. Thus, the lower is estrogenic property (aromatizability) of steroid you use, the less water your body keeps.

Thereby at the end of your steroid cycle, you will have more lean muscle mass and less rollback. Since antiestrogens can greatly reduce the rate of aromatization and prevent estrogenic side effects, they are very important for athletes taking steroids. Make sure that you have aromatase inhibitors and estrogen blockers in your cycle plan.

Other side effects

  • Vomiting
  • Muscle tightness
  • Dizziness
  • Weight changes
  • Weakness
  • Joint pain
  • reduction of immunity
  • cholesterol issues

Most Aromatizing Steroids

One should remember that all steroids are prone to aromatization. All of them aromatase but at different rate. Therefore, we are talking about most and less aromatizable steroids.

Also,such individual features as the number of aromatase enzyme in the organism may influence the rate of aromatization of certain steroids. This number can turn low aromatizable steroid into highly estrogenic.

Here is the list of steroids with high estrogenic activity.

Less Aromatizable Steroids

Antiestrogens

The following list of antiestrogensis recommended for use during the cycle or PCT in order to reduce estrogenic effect.

Arimidex (Anastrozole) – aromatase inhibitor (during cycle)

Femara (Letrozole) aromatase inhibitor (during cycle)

Clomid (Clomiphene Citrate) blocker of estrogen receptor (PCT)

• :tamoxifene: blocker of estrogen receptor (PCT)

HCG (Pregnyl (HCG – Human Chorionic Gonadotropin)) prevents the atrophy of testicle, during heavy cycles, which last more than 6 weeks

If youdecided to take steroids, you should be very attentive to the symptoms. Choose those substances, which are suitable for your body. Also it’s important to pay attention to your diet and sleep.

There are several reliable sources where you can buy anabolic steroids:

Methandienone solo cycle for beginners

Many beginners prefer to use Methandienone (Dianabol, Naposim, Dbol, Danabol) for their first cycle. This is a good choice, since this substance is quite safe and effective at the same time.

The effects of Methandienone solo cycle

  • Induces the growth of muscle mass. One can gain up to 8 kg in case of proper training and nutrition program.
  • Significantly increases strength.
  • Increases stamina.
  • Strengthens the bones.

Why is Methane good for a first cycle?

Let’s begin with the description of this substance. This is a strong anabolic steroid with moderate androgenic properties. Dianabol is one of the first steroids that came into sports. It became popular due to its ability to gain muscle mass and increase strength at the same time. If you have reached your genetic limit, it is Methanethat will help you to step further.

In general, the substance is rather safe, and the only its problem is possibility of estrogen related side effects. But you can eliminate them by using Proviron (Masterlone) or anti-estrogens. Androgenic side effects are also possible, but it’s a rare occasion, as they occur in case of genetic predisposition.

In order to get optimal results you have to eat well, train hard and sleep enough. There is no need for beginners to do combined cycles or take strong AAS, since they can harm your health. Methane will provide excellent results without additional risks. Besides, one should remember that steroids will be effective only when you reached genetic limit of muscle growthor came close to it.

Examples of Dianabol solo cycle

There are different plans for Dbol solo cycle. In this article we will discuss two of them. The first one is an old school plan, which we call “up-and-down-the-hill”:

  • 1st week 10 mg of Dianabol daily
  • 2nd week 15 mg daily
  • 3rd week 20 mg daily
  • 4th week 25 mg daily
  • 5th – 7th week 30 mg daily
  • 8th week 10 mg daily

According to the second plan you should take equal doses (30 mg) from the 1st to the 8th week of a cycle. Each of the plans has its own pros and cons. It is necessary to take Methandienone at regular intervals and you should take Tamoxifen (Nolvadex) or Clomid after the end of your PCT.

Don’t switch to heavy steroids after the Methandienone solo cycle, let your body get adapted to the effects of lighter AAS. They can give you excellent results.

How to eat and train during steroid cycles

Training.

Have workouts 3-4 times a week. Remember that frequent workouts may lead to overtraining, and it’s difficult to recognize the first symptoms when you use steroids. The duration of each training should be 45 minutes.

Increase the rest period between trainings if your body does not manage to recover with such a schedule.

Nutrition.

About 50 % of your success depends on nutrition. During mass gaining cycle you spend a lot of energy and your body needs a lot of materials to build muscles. Therefore, you need to provide your body with more nutrients than it consumes. Thus, you have to make adjustment to your diet.

Energy value of your diet

Scientists have found that people involved in heavy physical labor spend about 2300 – 3200 calories per day. In order to figure out the energy value of your nutrition program you have to multiply your weight (in kilograms) by 30. For example, if your body weight is 85 kilograms, then you need 2550 calories every day.

This is an approximate minimum. For Methandienone only cycle you need to add 600 – 700 calories to this number. Otherwise, your body will not have enough energy for heavy load. Of course, this calculation of calories is not universal and every athlete should make his diet according to his type of body and activity.

The ratio of nutrients

For steroid cyclethe ratio of nutrients should be the following:

  • Proteins: 20 – 30 %
  • Carbohydrates: 50 – 60 %
  • Fats: 10 – 20 %

Try to give preference to animal proteins. The protein content should be equal to 2-3 grams per kilogram of your body weight. Also give preference to complex carbohydrates.

How to use Proviron (Masterlone)

It’s impossible to do a safe anabolic cycle without auxiliary drugs. If an athlete has genetic predisposition to aromatization, then during Methandienone only cycle he should take 50 mg of Proviron daily. In case of heavier cycles increase the dosage up to 100 mg.

When your combination includes aromatizable steroid (e.g. testosterone ester) then you should take 50 mg of proviron a day starting from 8th day of your cycle. If you don’t have genetic predisposition then you can do with 25 mg a day.

Sometimes at the 5th week of a cycle the effectiveness of steroid may decrease due to the action of globulins. Again, in this case Proviron can help you, since it effectively suppresses their activity. During PCT take 20 mg of Tamoxifen (Nolvadex) daily.

There are several reliable sources where you can buy anabolic steroids:

Post Cycle Therapy

Post Cycle Therapy

Post Cycle Therapy is probably the most discussed issue among bodybuilders. Today there are a lot of PCT plans, but all of them share common features. In most cases they differ only in doses of the same substances.

On the one hand, this similarity has simple explanation – these substances do the job, and they proved to be effective for decades. However, science never stays on one and the same place, and it is way ahead from the level it was decades ago.

Therefore, this article will be about something special – SARMs and their role in PCT.

What is SARMs?

This abbreviation stands for Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators. Thus SARMs are a group of molecules which can selectively bind to androgen receptors and initiate specific reactions. However, they do not belong to steroids and do not produce steroid specific side effects, which is very important.

The major tasks of PCT:

  • To restart the hypothalamic pituitary testicular axis.
  • To slow down the catabolic reactions.
  • To minimize the rollback phenomenon.
  • To reduce fat deposition while following high calorie diet
  • To normalize your endocrine system

Now we will talk about each task separately.

Restarting of the hypothalamic pituitary testicular axis

In order to achieve this goal, you should take substances, which belong to the group of Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SARMs). They are Clomid, Tamoxifen (Nolvadex) and Toremifene. The first two are the most popular among athletes.

The usual dosage of Tamoxifen 20 mg per day throughout PCT. The use of Clomid is a little bit more complex:

  • 1st week of PCT 100 mg daily.
  • During 2nd and 3rd week 50 mg daily
  • 4th week – 25 mg daily

Suppression of catabolic reactions

The major problem at the end of a cycle is low levels of such hormones as testosterone and insulin-like growth factor, meanwhile the level of cortisol is significantly higher than it should be. All these factors lead to high catabolism.

And now it is a high time to talk about SARMs and PCT. In order to achieve this goal one should find a substance that has anti-catabolic activity and, atthe same time, does not suppress hypothalamic pituitary testicular axis. Ostarine is the perfect candidate for these goals.

By taking 25 mg of Ostarine daily (for a month) you are sure to protect your muscles from destruction. This SARM efficiently increases the concentration of IGF-1, normalizes the balance of nitrogen and suppresses the activity of cortisol. It may also create a powerful pump effect during workouts and improve your erection.

Reduction of fat deposition

Some athletes think that it is impossible to fight fat and to avoid catabolism at the same time. So it was until Cardarine appeared on the market. This is a great tool for fat burning without destruction of muscle tissues.

This representative of SARMs can speed up the reorganization of energetic processes in a cell. It forces musclesto actively use glycogen. As a result, they burn all carbohydrates, which prevents their conversion into fat.

At the same time Cardarine activates lipolysis, thus turning fatty acids into a source of energy. Besides, scientists regard Cardarine as a possible treatment of diabetes. To get the effect you should take 25 mg of Cardarine daily. By using this drug you will normalize the balance of lipoproteins and improve your health.

Normalization of the endocrine system

The other problem of most AAS cycles is high levels of estradiol, which lead to such unpleasant side-effectas gynecomastia. If you don’t take preventive measures it may become irreversible, and the only way to fix it is surgery.

In this case we recommend using Aromasin after your cycle. This SARM can increase the level of insulin-like growth factor and simultaneously suppress the process of aromatization.It can accelerate the production of endogenous testosterone, which is perfect for PCT.

Take 12.5 mg of Aromasin daily for one month. Additionally we also advise you to take 50 mg Andarine daily at the final stage of your cycle. This drug increases the concentration of growth hormone and IGF-1, besides it restores the nitrogen balance. Thus you can start PCT before the end of your steroid cycle.

Sustanon 250 + Nandrolone Decanoate Stack Combination

Most bodybuilders prefer to use Testosterone esters in combination with Nandrolone Decanoate (Deca). Sustanon 250, as a mixture of testosterone esters, becomes a perfect candidate for this combination. In this article we will regard the properties of the Sustanon 250 + Nandrolone Decanoate combination and how to use it correctly.

First of all, it is significant to say that both drugs are very powerful substances which are widely used in bodybuilding for gaining of muscle mass. At the same time, this combination greatly increases strength. According to different reports during eight-week cycle (Sustanon + Deca) one can gain up to 10 kg and increase one’s strength by 25% of initial level.

Nandrolone Decanoate

Deca-Durabolin has low level of aromatization and very low androgenic properties. If it were not for the progestogenic activity, this steroid would definitely become one of the safest AAS.

This drug accelerates hypertrophy of muscle tissue, increases strength, improves joint-ligament system, increases absorbtion of nutrients in the digestive system, strengthens bones and makes immunity more efficient.

Sustanon 250

The steroid consists of four Testosterone esters, which have different half-life period. As a result, it has quick and prolonged effect at the same time. Its properties completely coincide with properties of Testosterone itself.

Anastrozole

As Testosterone esters are prone to aromatization, there is a risk of estrogen related side effects (e.g. gynecomastia). Therefore, in order to prevent them you should include anti-estrogens into your cycle. And Anastrozole is one of the most powerful drugs in this group.

It can greatly reduce the concentration of estrogens, as it inhibits the enzyme converting testosterone into estrogens (aromatase).

Gonadotropin

Since both steroid of this combination suppress the production of endogenous testosterone,it is necessary to take Pregnyl (HCG – Human Chorionic Gonadotropin). This drug maintains the function of testicles, thereby preventing their athrophy.

Cabergoline

This drug is necessary for the cycles including Nandrolone or Trenbolone. These steroids have progestogenic activity, which increases the concentration of female hormone prolactin. In males high levels of prolactin may lead to unpleasant consequences. Cabergoline induces the secretion of dopamine, which in its turn reduces the level of prolactin.

Clomid

You should do Post Cycle Therapy after each steroid cycle. For this combination we recommend Clomid, since Tamoxifenis not suitable for Nandrolonecycles. Clomidwill accelerate the recovery of testosterone producing system.

Dosage and Usage

The duration of this cycle is ten weeks. This time is enough to fully reveal the potential of Nandrolone, which has slow onset of its effects.

We advise you to stick to the following scheme:

  • From 1st to 10th week take 200mg of Nandrolone every seventh day
  • From 1st to 10th week take 500mg of Sustanon weekly
  • From 2nd to 12th week on the 8th day of your cycle start taking Anastrozole 0.5 mg every other day.
  • From 2nd to 12th week start taking 250mcg of Cabergoline every fourth day
  • From 8th to 12th week inject Gonadotropin 500 I.U. twice a week
  • 14th week start PCT with 100 mg of Clomid every day
  • From 15th to 16th week reduce the dosage of Clomid to 50 mg/day

The Nandrolone Decanoate and Sustanon 250 combination can produce a synergistic effect. If you follow these recommendations you can achieve excellent results without undesirable side-effects.

Sustanon 250

It is a composite anabolic mixture, which consists of four testosterone esters. Since they have different life-time, Sustanonprovides both quick and long-term effect on the organism. Due to the dual nature of this compound, there is no need for frequent injections.
Like many other AAS,Sustanonwas created for medical purposes.But nowadays it one of the most popular steroids among athletes, which are eager to increase strength and gainmass.

Winstrol Depot (Stanozolol)

This is an anabolic steroid, which significantly increases strength and endurance. It is suitable for gaining of muscle massonly in combination with other steroids. Today we are going to talk about advantages of such combination (Winstrol + Sustanon).

  • First of all, this combination produces synergistic effect and greatly improves the quality of muscles. Besides both drugs rarely cause side effects and can be considered safe. At the same time, they mutually eliminate some negative features of each other.
  • Absence of aromatization. Winstrolis not an aromatizable steroid. Moreover, there are scientific reports that it can suppress estrogenic activity of other steroids.
  • Flexible dosing, which is suitable both for beginners and professional athletes.
  • High efficiency. Winstrol is one of the best steroids. You can use it both for cutting cycle and for gaining mascle mass (in combinations with other steroids).

Clomid

It is an auxiliary drug, which accelerates the recovery of an organism after the cycle.

Dosage and Usage

The following doses are suitable for athletes whose weight does not exceed 90 kg. The duration of a cycle is six weeks. If necessary, you can extend your cycle up to two months.

We suggest a classical scheme for Sustanon and Winstrol usage. Injectable stanozolol- 50 mg every day. Alternatively, you can do 0.1 gram every other day. However, in the first case, you are sure to avoid hormonal jumps.

Do not underestimate this fact, as any changes in hormonal levels may negatively affect the whole organism. Thus, we advise you to take Winstrol Depot (Stanozolol) every day.

The dosage of Sustanon 250 should be 250mg/week. You can do injection once a week, but we recommend you to divide the weekly dosage and do two injections. This is necessary to smoothen your hormonal background.
Start PCT in two weeks since last injection. The duration of PCT should be 2-3 weeks. During this period take 1 tablet of Clomid daily.

If your body is prone to aromatization, then include Proviron (Masterlone) or Exemestaneinto your cycle. Androgenic side-effects are very rare for this combination, however if you have high activity of 5-alpha-reductase enzyme, then take Finasteride.

Don’t forget about proper diet and intensive training if you want to achieve optimal results.

Goals of combination

Dianabol and Deca-Durabolin is a classical combination for gaining mass and strength. If you follow the cycle properly, you can get up to 10 kg of muscle mass. Of course, this is the maximally possible result and it is not always achievable. However, in any case, this cycle will be effective and safe. Additionally this cycle may increase libido, improve endurance and strengthen joint-ligament system.

Characteristics of used drugs

Dianabol. The active ingredient of this steroid ismethandienone (methane). Athletes worldwide have been using this substance for more than six decades. Dianabol is good for gaining muscle mass and increasing strength.

Opponents of this steroid often indicate on itshigh hepatotoxicity. However, it was scientifically proved that at reasonable doses (30 – 40 mg daily) it is not toxic to the liver.

Nandrolone Decanoate (Deca-Durabolin). Along with methane, it is one of the most popular AAS among bodybuilders. Though itsanabolic action unfolds slowly enough, the final results can amaze an athlete. It also strengthensjoint-ligament system, and besides, improves immune system.

Proviron (Masterlone). Theactive substance of this drug is Masterolone, which belongs to a group ofantiestrogens. Proviron can effectively inhibit the enzyme aromataze, which converts testosterone into estrogens.
Due to the action of this enzyme, the levels of estrogen increase and estrogen-related side-effects become possible (e.g. gynecomastia).

Though this drug is not as powerful as other representativesof this group, its usage in this cycle is completely justified. The thing is that Decais almost unaromatizable, meanwhile methane has low rate of conversion.

Therefore, there is no need for more powerful antiestrogens (e.g. Exemestane). Their usage is necessary only in case of athlete’s genetic predisposition to aromatization.

Clomid. You shouldn’t use tamoxifenafter Nandrolone Decanoate cycle. Thus, you can choose only between toremifene and Clomid. Though their anti-estrogenic activity almost do not differ, the latter is more available.

Rules of providing course Dianabol and Nandrolone Decanoate

In order to make your cycle effective and safe, one should choose right dosage. We suggest you to use both steroids at moderate doses, which guarantees no side-effects. The length of a cycle is 5 weeks. This is enough for beginners. Experienced athletes can extend it up to 8-10 weeks.

Take Dianabol gradually increasing the dosage from 20 to 40mg/day, then gradually decrease the dosage in the same way. This “up-and-down-the-hill” pattern will help your body to adapt to this steroid.
In order to improve effectiveness of Dianabolit’s better todissolve the tablets under the tongue, rather than swallowthem. To make smooth hormonal background divide the daily dosage into several portions and take them at regular intervals.

The weekly dosage of Nandrolone Decanoate (Deca-Durabolin) is 0.4 grams. Therefore, the usual pattern of Deca-Durabolin administration is 200mg every third day. For example, you can take it on Mondays and Thursdays. This pattern will ensure a steady flow of steroid into the blood.

Take Proviron (Masterlone) starting from the second or third week of your cycle and go on until steroid withdrawal. The daily dose is 50 mg. Start PCT in seven days since last Decainjection. The daily dosage of Clomid is 50 milligrams. In most cases, three weeksis sufficient time for your body to restore.

You can find a lot of positive reviews about stacking of Dianabol and Deca-Durabolin the internet. It is not surprising, since the cycle provides excellent results and safetyat the same time.

If you follow the recommended dosagesand take auxiliary drugs, there will not be side-effects. The rollback after the cycle is minimal, which is important. Some novice bodybuilders complain about the loss of gained mass after steroid withdrawal.

This happens due to the wrong cycle. We have to remind that by using Proviron you not only suppress estrogen-related side-effects, but also water retention. As a result, your muscles do not swell. Therefore, after steroid withdrawal there are no losses.

If your cycle is long enough, take Dostinex in order to avoid progestogenicside-effects of Deca. This cycle is suitable not only for beginners, but also for experienced bodybuilders.
