Ultimate Guide to roids gives you the keys to the Lamborghini gives you the information and lets you decide what to do with it. It's a crime this information has been suppressed this long. Now, let's get on with the podcast. This question is from Lou on Instagram how to properly combat estrogen rebound from prolong AI or Nova decks use during extended cycles of 20 plus weeks. Okay. So the first thing is The length of the cycle has no effect on the rebound potential of the estrogen. So when you hear people talking about estrogen rebound what generally they're talking about is they stop taking their aromatase inhibitor and when they stopped taking the aromatase inhibitor, which is a tablet that you take to prevent estrogen effects. They have a A surge in estrogen. So what's happening here is the way that aromatase Inhibitors work is they work by attaching to the estrogen molecules and rendering them unable to attach to receptors in the body and exert their effects. So the aromatase Inhibitors neutralize the ability of the estrogen molecule to exert its effects on the body. So there are several different. Four types of estrogen blockers and there's one called a suicidal blocker and this one actually permanently deactivates and destroys the estrogen molecule and an example of a suicidal aromatase inhibitor and the most popular one to use would be eczema stain brand-name aromasin. So this one if you use this, there's no potential. For estrogen rebound because it destroys the estrogen molecule. So if you're using other ones though other estrogen blockers like Arimidex or letrozole or Nova decks these blockers do not destroy estrogen. What Nova decks does is it blocks estrogen in the nipples specifically and most potent Lee it? Doesn't really block estrogen from being able to exert its effects very well. In other tissues. It's very selective for the nipples. So it's very good for preventing Dino. That's the way that Nova decks works, but then is when you get to Arimidex or you get two letters all those two chemicals bind to the estrogen molecules in the blood and rendered the estrogen molecules unable to exert their effects in the body. So those drugs have a half-life of or an active life in the body of around Three days around three days four days Arimidex and letrozole and then they are excreted from your system. So what happens is that the letters all molecule or the Arimidex molecule will unbind from the estrogen molecule and the estrogen molecule will then be able to exert its effects on the tissues. So people can what they'll do is they'll stop taking their aromatase inhibitor their Jin tablets very suddenly and when they do this suddenly in this way, then the estrogen that was bound up to the Arimidex or the lectures all or being blocked from the Nova decks. You know, I don't think that we should include analytics in here because it's an extra Jin blocker. It's not an aromatase inhibitor or a it has a completely different mode of action. So we're not going to be talking about Nova decks here because it's talking about about estrogen rebound and talking about Nova decks wouldn't make sense. It just it doesn't make sense with its mechanism of action. So what we're going to be talking about is non-suicidal aromatase Inhibitors, like the popular ones are letrozole and Arimidex. Okay. So what happens is that if you stop taking these suddenly the estrogen that was bound up by those chemicals in your body it Unbinds from the aromatase inhibitor and becomes able to exert its effects again in your body. So the way that you can prevent estrogen rebound from happening is not to suddenly stop taking your aromatase Inhibitors. Okay, if you're going to stop taking them you don't just stop taking them on the last day of your cycle and then never take them again. Okay, what you do is you've got to slowly taper them off. So estrogen. Rebound isn't something that is, you know a big deal with experienced users, you know, no experienced user really experiences estrogen rebound because they just wouldn't do something like suddenly stopping taking their aromatase inhibitor. Okay, if you are looking to slowly, you know that estrogen that is in your body. It also has an active life and it has something called a half life, which is the amount of Time that it takes the molecule to be metabolized to half of its peak concentration in the bloodstream. Okay. That's what Half-Life means which means half of its peak blood levels be destroyed and then it goes on and on from there until it's out of your system completely and the way that you would prevent any estrogen rebound from happening would be That you would take those aromatase Inhibitors like Aroma decks and letrozole and then you would slowly taper them off. You don't just stop it immediately. Okay. So if you're on a cycle and you're done with your cycle, it's the last day of your cycle. Don't just stop taking the you know, like say for example, you were taking D ball and you were taking Arimidex to block estrogen. Okay. So now if you just stop taking the Arimidex and the D ball on the same day, you may have some estrogen rebound. when the estrogen created from the D ball that was being bound up and unable to exert its effects in your blood and in your body by the Arimidex or letrozole once that lectures all over midex is then metabolized and gone from bloodstream, you know, it can detach from those estrogen molecules that were created from the D ball and then the estrogen can be free in your blood again to exert its effects. So basically what you do is instead of just stopping the like for example D ball and Arimidex on the same day what you'd do is you'd stop the the D ball and then you would taper down the Arimidex. So say you were taking the ball. You know, you're taking the D ball and then you're taking the Arimidex at 1 milligram per day every day or something. Okay. Now, you know for the next week take half that amount and then you can stop taking the Arimidex. Okay, and that will prevent any estrogen rebound from happening but really estrogen rebound isn't really a thing that's kind of more of something that's talked about on the internet rather than something that's really experienced in real life. As far as estrogen, you know, estrogen side effects. They don't just come up overnight and they're not like something that just kind of like bite you in the ass overnight where you have no time to react. Okay, you always have time to react to estrogen side effects. So the way that they start presenting themselves with generally be in a enlarged prostate where you were having trouble peeing or when you did P the P stream was Weak or itchy burning nipples. Okay, and when you notice effects like that, you need to take your anti estrogen tablets. Okay, and if you don't if you notice those effects and you don't take any anti-estrogen tablet and something like 48 Hours goes by well, then you're going to be running into permanent side effects. Okay, like breast formation breast tissue formation of enlargement of glands underneath your nipples, okay? So it takes about 40 48 hours though for those initial symptoms, you know, you may wake up one day with itchy burning nipples, right? So that's the initial onset of estrogen symptoms. But you have until those become permanent you have about 48 hours to react. Okay, so it's not like you're going to wake up one morning and you're going to have tissue guy. No that wasn't there. For that's not the way it works. You have some time to react. Okay. So estrogen rebound, you're not really going to experience that that's kind of an internet thing that people talk about on the Internet. It's not something that happens in real life much and basically the rule with the aromatase Inhibitors and to a sturgeon tablets is when you experience the symptoms of having elevated estrogen levels, Take the tablet and within one to two hours those symptoms will go away. Okay, somchai asks a question. Obviously from Thailand. Hey, bro, would these Subs be enough for health during tests only cycle Knack, which is a liver supplement B3 niacin course. I have omegas and vitamins Etc also, but would I need some liver Support also? Okay. Well the thing here's some chili is that you are doing a testosterone only cycle and that means that you're using injections. So injectable testosterone does not stress the liver. The reason why oral steroids do stress the liver is because they have to contain a model in Alteration in modification to the steroid hormone molecule called 17 Alpha. Okay, because everything that you put in your mouth any kind of chemical has to be processed by the liver, which is a metabolizer a the liver contains enzymes that metabolize or break down and Destroy things. Okay. So because if you take something through your mouth that's going to have to go through your liver if you just took something like testosterone it would Be destroyed by your liver. Okay, and so the way around this is adding this chemical modification to the hormone called molecule called a 17 Alpha alkylation. And what that does is it strengthens the hormone and makes it be able to go through the liver without being broken down and destroyed and it does it very very effectively so that you know if you took a hormone through your mouth And it didn't have a you know, if you took like raw testosterone through your mouth by the time if you took a hundred milligrams, you may only get one milligram of that, you know in your bloodstream the other 99 milligrams would be destroyed by your liver. But if you use something with you know, if you used methyl testosterone, which is testosterone with a 17 Alpha alkylation modification added to it, it would not be broken down and you'd get about ninety percent of that or more of those of the milligrams that you took in your blood on destroyed by your liver. So since you are using injectable testosterone, you are bypassing this whole mechanism and your liver will not be stressed from taking injectable testosterone. Now, you didn't tell me how many milligrams you're going to be taking for the test cycle. Okay, but Generally testosterone injectable testosterone with nothing else with no other steroid hormones included is one of the best cycles for your health that you can do because testosterone is a bioidentical hormone and it's made for human bodies. The rest of the steroids are hormones that are based off of testosterone or progesterone or estrogen and then they have education's that were done by scientists in a lab. And so they are not natural to our human bodies. And that's the main reason why they have a pretty potent Health side effects. So the main thing actually with testosterone that could hurt your health is having elevated estrogen levels because estrogen is carcinogen causes cancer. It also can it has a lot of you know acne effects it can blow up your prostate has a lot of bad effects in the mail and even in the female, you know gives them cancer. Main thing on the testosterone only cycle is that you want to make sure that you keep your estrogen levels in range and you don't want to do this by taking an estrogen blocker? Okay, estrogen blockers prevent you from experiencing estrogen symptoms, but they don't actually destroy the estrogen molecule or render it ineffective or unable to exert its effects in your body. So what you want to going to want to do is take a room at X letrozole or eggs and mess tin. What you can do is you can take your blood work and see if a certain dosage of those chemicals such as two or three tablets per week keeps your estrogen in range or another way that you could do it is you could take those tablets whenever you feel estrogenic symptoms and those symptoms will then resolved within one to two hours. But as far as support supplements, you don't really need any support supplements for a testosterone. Only cycle absolutely taking omegas and vitamins is good, you know, you can take the other supplements that you mentioned as well. But you know, the thing that is going to be the most hard on your health, you know, that could elevate your blood pressure or something like that is going to be high estrogen levels. Again, that is the most you know, that's the danger. That's the unhealthy part of using testosterone. And because the high estrogen levels are also going to cause you water retention and the water retention is going to cause your blood pressure to rise. Okay. So as far as you worrying about your health with your testosterone only cycle. Yeah, I think it's a good idea to take those vitamins to live a healthy lifestyle where you do cardio where you do weightlifting where you eat a Clean Diet that's free from you know, garbage unhealthy foods and then You know keep your estrogen and range and you should be good. Okay, Harvey asks, I bought and rocks on oral yesterday, but not use that yet. What do you think? And so one and rocks on is it's a tablet or a gel capsule of testosterone on Deck annoyed. So this goes back to what I was talking about about having a 17 Alpha alkylation to make oral steroids not be destroyed by the liver. And that's the reason why oral steroids. It's one of the reasons why they're different than injectable is because they have to pass the liver so and Roxton what it is is It's a non 17 Alpha alkylated steroid that is supposed to be used orally. So the problem with this stuff is is that it gets destroyed when you put it in your mouth your liver destroys it because it doesn't contain in 17 of alkylation. It's only going to give you very very modest increases in testosterone and it's mainly used and prescribed for Old Men because the fact that by the time that that testosterone on Deck Gonna wait which it does not have that 17 Alpha alkylation on it gets through your liver. It's pretty much completely destroyed. So, you know, you may get you know, a maximum of 10% of the ingested dose actually active in available in your bloodstream. The rest will be destroyed on its way there. So, you know as far as testosterone tablets, you know, anything like and Oxen or there's another type of testosterone tablets whenever you see that a lot of times it's going to be testosterone on Deck annoyed and you don't really doesn't work good injecting testosterone on deck in a way works really well because then it doesn't have to go through your liver but for tablets it works terribly. It's very very poor not effective. So What? Yeah, it's it's not effective. The only as far as tablets go the only testosterone that is effective is methyl testosterone. Okay, because it does contain the 17 alkylation that allows it to survive the liver another option because you know, a lot of times people say that you know, their oral only cycle socked or gave them like sexual side. So that's mainly because of estrogen and if you don't have estrogen at all zero your sex drive will be destroyed. So if you take an oral only that is good at building muscle and also produces estrogen like d-ball that would be another option for someone that does not want to do an injection, but they want to get the effects and the gains of testosterone from taking tablets. They could take 10 to 15 milligrams of the attendee on meth and roastin alone Dianabol. Those are all different names for the same thing. They could take that daily and they would get muscle gaining effects from that and they would also have you know, they wouldn't have their sex drive be destroyed. Okay Pat asks, which do you prefer with tea or tea metformin or yohimbine? Well, this really has to do with If your goal and he also let me know that he wants to lose fat especially around his belly and chest. That's the main reason why he's wanting to use metformin or yohimbine along with his trt. So metformin is a insulin sensitizing drug, it helps people with diabetes not have diabetes and the way it sensitizes you to insulin. It is it makes your muscle cells not your fat cells more sensitive to insulin which means that the carbohydrates you eat are heavily pushed towards going into your muscle cells and it's easier for them to get into your muscle cells. And at the same time. It's not easier for them to get into your fat cells. Okay, and it also does things like reducing the absorption of the carbohydrates that you eat and the fats that you eat by thirty percent. So You eat the same amount of food, but less actual energy gets into your bloodstream. It also gives you diarrhea for the first two weeks that you take it and then that goes away so metformin is pretty effective for weight loss and that initial first two weeks that you take it and you have diarrhea. Well, you're not really going to be absorbing much of your food. So you're going to be losing weight because your body isn't going to be in taking much energy from the food that you eat. So it is very effective for weight loss, but it Be taken without testosterone because it reduces natural testosterone by sixty percent. So it's a good thing that you're taking testosterone with the foreman Pat because you won't have any problems with metformin reducing your testosterone levels, since you are replacing your testosterone with injections. Okay, so then he went on to ask. Can I still use yohimbine for weekend early cardio or Just stick with metformin and the answer to that is yeah. Absolutely. You can still use your him Bond so, you know him by and is more of a stimulant and Metformin works. Like I said on a totally different mode of action, it works on a mode of action with your digestive system. Whereas yohimbine works by stimulating your body and causing your fat cells to reduce or two. Put triglycerides into the bloodstream for your muscles to use for energy. So you'll him bind kind of puts you into a fight or flight response when you begin taking it and the way that that works is that about 10 to 15 minutes after taking the yohimbine tablets and you know, if if you're using though you him bond for fat loss. You should take a minimum of 10 milligrams per dosage and it must be taken on an empty stomach for fat loss because there can be no insulin present in the blood or It cannot function the way it's supposed to. Okay, so that your him by must be taken on an empty stomach in order to burn fat and when you do that, it's very effective. And it also will blunt your appetite about 10 to 15 minutes after you start taking the yohimbine you will start to shake you'll get the shakes and you also have some chills your blood pressure drops a bit because it's a vasodilator which means that it makes your blood flow more easily. Ali by relaxing your veins and arteries and yeah, it's very effective for cardio. So you'll him Bine since you know, I think that the reason why you were asking, you know is okay to stack the yellow hen bind with the metformin is because if you're doing something like taking caffeine and taking yohimbine at the same time, which are two stimulants that might be a bit much and you might get some anxiety from doing that but stacking the Your him bind in the metformin they're not going to it's not going to bother you because the metformin isn't a stimulant. So the yohimbine works on a totally different mode of action. So that's fine. That's totally fine to do that stacking with the metformin. And yeah, the yohimbine is very effective for fat loss the way that you should use it is you should take the tablets take at least 10 milligrams, but you know 20 milligrams is the dose that really is potent for fat loss, but Ten milligrams is the minimum dose. Okay for fat loss and you take this on an empty stomach. It's best to take it when you first wake up. First thing that you do is you take the yohimbine 10 to 15 minutes later. You start to shake and get the chills, which is your body going into a fight or flight response in response to the yohimbine, which means that your fat cells start really releasing their stored triglyceride energies into the bloodstream and then you want to go for a walk to burn up those triglycerides that are then Glycerides are fat molecules that are floating around in your blood stream so that they don't get reabsorbed into your body. So go for a walk for 30 to 45 minutes and after you start to notice the the shaking and chills from the yohimbine go for that walk burn up those fat molecules that the yohimbine is released into your bloodstream and yeah burn fat like that. It's great. It's great. You take it on an empty stomach and you do cardio with the yohimbine and it is incredible fat burner. It is roughly 50% as effective as clenbuterol for burning fat roughly guys. That is a that is an estimate. Okay, roughly Matt asks, is there any real way to fully mitigate against testicular atrophy or is it inevitable? Okay. He also asks can they re grow once they've shrunk your testicles your balls and the answer is yes, so I had shrunk testicles for quite a long time of my steroid use and then eventually I got sick of that. Okay. I got sick of it because it's not why I signed up to do this. Okay. I don't like I can't and I don't want it. So I did what was necessary to stop that from happening which was taking HCG year round. So HCG human chorionic gonadotropin is it's very similar to the chemical luteinizing hormone that your pituitary gland releases. To cause your testicles to function and produce testosterone and sperm. So what you can do is you can take HCG and it causes your body to believe that the signal from your pituitary gland that causes your testicles to function is happening when it's not because when you take steroids the the signal from the signal to cause your testicles to function stops, okay, and so what? Happens is that when your testicles don't have any signal signal to function anymore? They stop producing testosterone and they stop producing sperm and what they do is they shrink because they're not being used. Okay, and the shrinking is not actually that they're being destroyed. It's not like, you know, they're shrinking because parts of them are being destroyed. That's not the way it is. It's actually they're just going into hibernation because they're not working anymore. So as soon as they have that signal again, To to work then they go back to full size. They start producing testosterone and they start producing sperm again. So once you start taking HCG, you can still have a functioning testicles producing sperm and producing testosterone while using steroids at the same time. And this is why I started taking 500. I you of HCG year-round because I didn't want to have Small shrunken testicles that were dysfunctioning not functioning anymore. So I started doing that and ever since I started taking 500 IU of HCG year round. My testicles have been natural normal size again, even though I still use steroids. So that was a good decision and I like doing it Matt had another question. How long should a kick in period be if I use six weeks of d-ball oral cycle. So he's talking about di Bao only. I am eighty three kilograms 14-inch percent body fat right now. How much weight should I expect again? Okay. Well, you gotta let me know how many milligrams of d-ball you're expecting to use. If you're using a default only cycle. I'm guessing that you're probably planning like 25 or 30 milligrams per day. And yeah, you're going to make gains on that. So the thing with with roids dude is that They work really good when they're in your blood, but when they're not in their blood and your body has no reason to really like maintain the gains of the steroids. So you start slowly reverting back over time. You can't take steroids and then expect to keep the gains from taking the steroids in definitely the same way that you can't go to the gym and work out and then stop working out and then expect to keep the gains that you made from working out. Okay. So with the with the steroids one of the reasons why a lot of people do what's called blasting and cruising where you do a high dosage steroids to gain muscle and then you just take a low dosage of testosterone to maintain the muscle is to make it so the muscle that you built while you were on cycle doesn't go away when you're off cycle. So people will take a small dosage of testosterone year-round or most of the time during the year. In order to do that, you're a beginner though, and I know that that's not what you want to do. But so let's go. Let's go into your your question. How long should a kick in period be if you were to use six weeks of d-ball oral, you know, it's only going to take a few days D ball. You see the effects on your body and notice the effects in the gym after two to three to a maximum of Ford five days the onset. He's very quick and you get a cosmetic effect from having the hormone that chemical in your bloodstream and the Cosmetic effect fills your muscles up with a lot of water and fuel storage. And so you look much bigger and more muscular only days after taking after you begin taking the tablets. It's not actually muscle tissue that you gained. It's just fuel storage inside of your muscles that you gained but you will within something like five for five days. you begin taking those tablets, you will appear as if you put on five pounds of solid muscle because of those storage factors those energy storage factors that are going to be inside your muscles and the main thing the main thing with making the gains that are going to be the muscle tissue because people say things like, you know, I pissed out my gains after the Debo cycle what they're talking about is those after they stopped Taking the d-ball, you know, the body has no if they have no chemical in their bloody more than their body has no reason to hang on to those storage factors the extra water and the extra carbohydrate glycogen fuel storage that's in your muscles making them look so much bigger. So they didn't actually gain muscle tissue. They just gained the Cosmetic effects of taking the drug and that's what they mean by I pissed out my gains after I stopped taking the D ball. The way to make tissue gains where it's actual fiber muscle tissue is to increase the weights that you're lifting in the gym and the number of reps that you're lifting those weights for. Okay, increasing your strength and the amount of reps that you can do weightlifting for is what creates muscle fiber tissue. That doesn't go away. Okay, so if you started out lifting Let's say you were lifting 80 pound dumbbells for the the bench press you're doing a you're doing 80 pounds in each hand for the bench, press at the beginning of your cycle. You would want to make sure that you know, six weeks later you were early using you know, 95 pound dumbbells in each hand for the same amount of reps. And then you will have guaranteed that you built up actual muscle fiber and not just muscle fuel storage. Okay, and then when you came Of the cycle you would notice increase in the size of your muscle fibers and that would stick around for several months until you know, if you decided to be natural for a long time, you know, you would eventually revert you would lose the gains and revert back to more of a natural body. You may you may retain a couple pounds of muscle from the cycle, but not too much so The main thing with the the steroids again is if you want to look like you're on steroids and have steroid muscle gains. Then you pretty much got to have the steroids in your blood or else your body will be going back towards, you know, slowly over time going back towards what you looked like naturally and that's what happens to everyone when they go off cycle is they maintain the gains but slowly over time the gains go away and they go back to looking like a natural person. Not on steroids because that is the case. They are not on steroids. It's the same as if you worked out in the gym and then stopped working out your body doesn't keep the gains from working out slowly over time. You lose those gains. If you don't keep doing what you did to get the gains in the first place and that's the case with the with the steroids and with the D ball. Okay muscle trust asks, yo is 10 milligrams d-ball everyday safe from toxicity. I have a friend who claims it is. What do you think? Well, my answer to this is that in the 60s and in the 50s when meth and roastin alone matignon Dianabol, those are all names for it was invented there were doctors that were prescribing it for hormone replacement. RP and so that means testosterone replacement therapy they were using that instead of injectable testosterone to give men that needed hormones their hormones. Okay, and what they were doing was their prescribing 10 to 15 milligrams of DNA ball per day and you asked is 10 milligrams safe from toxicity and you know, it could give you some toxicity over time, but it would take a long time it would take months on end before. For you would notice any negative toxic type of side effects from doing that. However, if you were taking something like 50 milligrams, you could notice signs of toxicity such as tiredness and on no appetite and a bad mood just generally feeling like totally dog shit. If you were taking, you know, 50 milligrams those could begin as far as Like four or five weeks after taking it, okay, but at a dose of 10 to 15 milligrams per day, you will not be feeling those kinds of effects for unless you have some kind of pre-existing health issue. You won't be feeling toxicity effects for you know months, you know, I wouldn't think that there would be a problem and doing that. You know, you may never feel any toxicity effects, but you might The only way to really deal with that or to know for sure would be taking your blood work while you were doing it. But in general, you know, like I said this has this protocol that you're talking about has been prescribed by doctors in the past, you know to be on that long-term and definitely taking 10 to 15 milligrams. Deanna ball per day for hormone replacement therapy and not cycling it. This is something that has been prescribed by doctors in the past. So there you have your answer Synthol deadlift asks, have you noticed any physical non muscle growth on HGH like larger hands increase in high Etc. And yeah, I have used pharmaceutical grade growth hormone for you know a year straight. I'm not on it now that was back from in 2017 and 2018 used Nordy tropen from 4 to 6 I use per day for For one year and you know, I didn't notice any head growth or any hand growth or any foot growth. Yeah. I didn't I didn't notice anything like that. I did notice massive muscle growth and quality and increase in separation. And to some extent those effects have stayed with me since using that but you know, I really think that you need to be taking around 10. I use per day to start getting these effects that are like acromegaly like effects, you know, four to five I use per day of growth hormone is actually what teenagers are producing during there. During their high growth years when they're when they're growing the fastest when their bones are growing the fastest. So it's not really an acronym eglee type dosage. It's when you are going 10, I use an above that's when those negative side effects start to happen and the Tapout point for muscle gains really where the effects you know, their whether the best like the you know, the As to fact with the least risk on growth hormone is really around like 6, I use per day a pharmaceutical grade growth hormone. That's when you take more. Yeah, it gives you better gains it gives you better fat loss but not in the same way. It doesn't do it that much better. You know, it does it better but it doesn't do it like boatloads better. And that's also when you start getting side effects from having, you know, really high growth hormone igf-1 levels. Like your feet growing your hands growing your head growing things like that. And a lot of people do take, you know, ten I use or more, you know one vial of growth hormone is usually 10 I use and so taking one Viola day is not too uncommon for bodybuilders who are really big or bodybuilders who are really serious about what they're doing bodybuilders take To 100 I use of growth hormone per day. It's very very foolish and that's guaranteed to give you acromegaly. If you do something like that, but bodybuilders experimenting from anywhere from 10 to 30 or 40. I use per day of growth hormone is not unheard of by any means. It's actually pretty common if you talk to enough people who are bodybuilders, you will find ones who have Experimented with and done stuff like that. And you know, it's those kind of dosages where you have more igf-1 than is necessary, you know way more than combined to the, you know muscle tissue cell that you've broken down in the gym to help repair it if you've got way more igf-1 in your blood then whatever, you know, you need to help prepare your muscles from your workout and produce more muscle cells. Well, then that's The spill over to other body tissues. So bone organs, you know gut growth feed growth had growth and growth stuff like that. So that's from taking excessive dosages. But if you stay in the area of to I use for I use five I use generally unless you are for some reason very genetically susceptible. You're not going to be having a lot of acromegaly. a type of growth hormone effects Okay vintage black ass. All right, I'm 21 and I want to hop on steroids. I'm wondering if a hundred fifty milligrams test an end date weekly year-round combined with two blasts one of around 250 to 350 milligrams test an ant they alone and another with 40 40 to 50 milligrams and of our and 250 to 500 milligrams test in the winter would be fun. All right. Well, the first thing is that whenever you're taking gear you are going to be risking some of your health a little bit. Are you going to be risking it very much, especially with the cycle that you said that you're going to do know you're not going to be risking your health very much. That's very, you know compared to what you could be doing. That's very safe. And as far as like your blood blood markers and everything to the cycle that you cycles that You list it off and your plan is a very conservative plan. And if you got blood work done while you're doing that it isn't going to look terrible it, you know, it's going to look. Okay. So a lot of guys they want confirmation they want someone else to tell them what what you're doing is okay, but really the only one who can really tell you like whether what you're doing is okay or not is you if you look for other people to tell you that confirmation. Ian of whether your cycle is okay or not. You got to maintain that that that the responsibility for what you're doing is you you're deciding to do this you're making this decision to use steroids and you know, there could there probably will not be Health consequences to the plan that you have at least very significant Health consequences, you know, if any but you know, it is still you making that decision to expose yourself to Risk. So when you ask a would it be fine? I just want to let you know that everybody who does this needs to make sure that they are fully aware and responsible for what they're doing making that decision and being confident confident and comfortable with the decision that they made to use steroids. No one else can make that decision for you as far as your gains on those Cycles. I I like the idea of doing testosterone and eight weekly at 150 milligrams year-round with those two conservative blasts. If you do 250 to 350 milligrams test an ante that's not a blast. I know that you called that your blast but the gains that you're going to make on that are going to be very very conservative. So, I mean, you won't notice a huge difference from the 150 milligrams testosterone going up to 250 milligrams testosterone. You're going to need more like yeah 500 milligrams to really like notice a difference. Like you will grow very very slowly on the 250 350 milligrams test alone and 150 milligrams per week. You won't really gain anything more than what you would naturally so then 250 to 350 milligrams would be that threshold where now you can start to gain more than you could naturally and then the 150 milligrams. Yeah, I would just be maintaining what you built when you're doing the more but you're not going to get any. And of explosive gains or really radical size gains off of 250 to 350 milligrams test. He only per week. It's going to be that this would be something that you'd you know need to be doing long-term this kind of Lifestyle with the hormones, you know, basically over years and you would slowly build up a you know, really incredible physique maintaining this kind of a protocol over months and years. And the 40 to 50 milligrams and of our with the 250 to 500 milligrams test would be a lot better. So as far as making some kind of explosive muscle gains and having you know Explosive Performance in the gym where your performance your weight lifting your strength the amount of reps that you could do would be going up a lot. This would help a lot. So the magic combination for explosive gains. Bodybuilding is the combination of testosterone with anabolics. So they these anabolics is generally what we refer to when we talk about hormones that aren't natural to your body like an of our for example oxandrolone. It's not natural to your body and it is anabolic. It's very tissue building when combined with testosterone. It's not very good tissue building when it's alone and really neither is testosterone. It kind of gets activated when you When you have the put the anabolic with it, so, you know testosterone is very synergistic with every other steroid other steroids. That aren't testosterone don't work. Very good if testosterone isn't with them and then testosterone doesn't really, you know, explosively really build a lot of muscle and get you that look that you see that looks really unnatural and really shapely and separated and stuff without adding the anabolic so, you know steroids are very Stick with each other and combining testosterone with a non-natural steroid such as in of our like you're suggesting it's going to be something that's going to get you a lot more Explosive Performance enhancement and of our is very performance-enhancing, it increases your strength and increases your stamina and the gym and increases the weights that you can lift and it doesn't quickly. Okay. So as far as you taking, you know for pharmaceutical grade and of our and of our that is dose correctly. 40 to 50 milligrams is the minimum effective dosage and it is a it's an effective dosage though. It's a dosage that I would personally use and it's going to it's going to cause strength build up and that's what you're going to want to do is basically use that anavar and the strength build up that you're going to get to then push the weights up in the gym, you know, if you started, you know at the beginning of 10 weeks lifting to for 10 reps on bench press you would want to be you know, Ten Weeks Later lifting 275 four or eight weeks later lifting 275 for 10 reps on bench press and then that's you know, having that testosterone in their is going to help you keep on to the muscle and strength that you built combining the testosterone with an of are there going to be synergistic and of ours going to help you push up your strength quicker the testosterones going to help you hold onto the muscle tissue more so So I like the idea that you have I like the conservative approach that you're doing. It. Looks like you're looking to do this as a lifestyle type thing using hormones as a lifestyle and generally guys who feel like that are generally the guys who are the most dedicated and they're the most willing to do what is necessary to get the body. They want it's really important when you are using steroids to remember that living the bodybuilding lifestyle at the same time is very important a lot of times. People get sidetracked because you know of thinking how powerful steroids are and they are very powerful but you're not going to get the dream body that you want. Unless you lived the bodybuilding lifestyle and take steroids. Okay. So the dream body that you're looking for is going to take diet training and steroids all mix together all at the same time. Okay. So with your approach with the low dosage of anavar and testosterone and then combining those supplements. It's those performance enhancing drugs with living the bodybuilding lifestyle doing your training and your diet and taking those at the same time. That's going to help you reach your dream body. He asks also high red blood cell count. Is that a problem and what I have to donate blood so yeah. Hi blood cell. Hi red blood cells is one of the main effects of taking any male hormones is they make more red blood cells. So some people say, oh you don't want to donate blood because you don't want to get rid of those red blood cells. Because the more red blood cells you have in your blood the more oxygen transport you have so you are going to be able to get more oxygen and nutrition via those red blood cells to your muscles and work out harder and shit like that. So there's health effects to that though and the the amount of red blood cells that you have in your blood if it's a higher number, it's called your hematocrit. That means that Our volume there's more red blood cells in your blood. So if you had one liter of water and you stuck a thousand red blood cells in the 1 liter of water, you have a certain concentration of red blood cells. And now that you've put into this one liter of water. Well now when you increase that number of red blood cells mm red blood cells in the 1 liter of water. Well now you have just made that water thicker. Okay, and that's what you know raising your he A crit on steroids is doing is you have a set amount of blood but then when you raise the red blood cell count work your hematocrit level then you're putting more red blood cells into that same volume of blood that you have. So your blood becomes thicker, which makes your heart have to work harder in order to push it around. This is a strain on your system. It's not healthy and is it, you know, it's something you should take care of and you know, all bodybuilders should be, you know donating blood around. And you know for four to eight times a year you should you should do that is is it a it's a smart thing to do, you know, is it going to acutely kill you? If you don't do that and you know for one cycle and then you know, you don't give blood and is that going to end up in you having a heart attack and dying, you know the chances of that happening are so ridiculously slim. It's not even worth mentioning. No, it's a ridiculous thing. So I'm not a doctor but you know, that's not something that regularly happens. But this is one of those things where you know, the thing with steroids and health effects is cumulative damage and that's what you have to watch out for is cumulative damage. So if you're always running steroids and you've always got you know high red blood cell count high hematocrit and your heart and your cardiovascular system is always having to work extra hard to push that thicker blood around. Well, you know now you do that and you do that for years Jean end you know months on end or you know half the time throughout the year, you know, you're having that kind of thing happens. Well that kind of stress and that kind of workload is going to lead to damage and fatigue on your organs and tissues. So it's not something that's good to have going on, you know all the time. So a body builder who uses steroids often and never gives blood is compromising some of his cardiovascular health because he's putting an unnatural strain. His cardiovascular system in his heart. So that would be something that you know, people say and a lot of athletes they actually want more blood red blood cells. They'll even go train at high altitudes to get more red blood cells and that's because it is performance-enhancing. So yeah, it is more performance-enhancing to have a red blood a high red blood cell count. I hiking out of court level but is that healthy to have all the time? No, absolutely not so it's going to be Up to you to decide how you want to balance that. And since you are a pretty moderate guy in general, I would say that for you and your situation. It seems like donating blood every two or three months would be something that would be good for you and it would be something that you would want to do. I'll tell you one thing is that if you have overly Redskin if you're Seeing pink skin one of the causes of that is high blood pressure. And then the other cause is high hematocrit level. It's because you have a lot of oxygen in your blood. So if you look at round at the gym at really big guys, a lot of them will have kind of a pinkish tint or a reddish tint to their skin and that's a highly oxygenated blood. And so if you want your normal skin color to come back giving blood will help with that, too. Bake your skin color go back to the way it was when you weren't using steroids to reduce that pinkish or red tint to your skin that you see a lot of steroid users have they need to give blood that means they have really high hematocrit levels. All right, mr. To shiny asks, what would you recommend for powerlifter take for a cycle in order to gain as much strength as possible over 12 week period of weight gain was an issue plus if weight gain was an issue for their weight class. Okay, so the steroids that Do not increase your body weight much meaning that they don't increase a lot of fuel storage and water retention. One of them would be definitely anavar. Another would be Winstrol and Winstrol is stronger than anavar in everything that it does. So Winstrol combined with testosterone high dosage testosterone is a very effective strength drug stack. Length combination and and it doesn't increase your weight at all. Unless you're eating to make it increase your weight something like Dianabol. Also, you know is very good for increasing strength. Everyone knows that same thing with super draw same thing with Anna draw, but all those drugs increase your body weight, but out of Anna draw Super Draw and Dianabol and a draw would probably increase your weight the least but then you know you have Drugs, like like Winstrol and and of our that aren't going to increase your weight at all. And you know, the fact is is that when it comes to strength orals really oral steroids really seemed to shine in that category the only injectable that's really going to give you an acute increase in strength the way that some of these orals do is trembling in and yeah, it is going to increase your strength a lot. So if somebody wants to Be strong. Somebody wants to be lean, you know have a good power to body weight ratio, you know Trend alone is you know, the strongest chemical for that it you know, it's the strongest chemical for bodybuilding powerlifting really, you know, physique and performance enhancement, you know, it's very very strong and powerful and it does the things you want like not increasing body weight much unless you eat for that while increasing strength power and performance in the gym and being an injectable. It's very uncomfortable to take tremble on those. So we're always looking for ways to not take Trend blown and still get some of the good effects that it you know, that somebody would want to take trembling for so as far as that goes. Yeah Winstrol and anavar for strength without weight gain. Those are going to be the top ones and then and then Anna draw after that it is going to increase your weight, but not as much as something like Dianabol or super draw and And those orals are pretty much the best strength drugs also on a side note clenbuterol increases your strength. So you will notice a substantial increase in your strength. If you take clenbuterol, the the weights you can lift and the amount of reps that you can do and this isn't a steroid is actually a stimulant and so what it does is it gives a fight or flight response to your body that then you are having this fight or flight response all the time. Your central nervous system is extremely active. It and you are better able to recruit muscle fibers and motor units. So then when you do go to the gym and you lift weights the clenbuterol makes you stronger because it stimulates you so much and activates. It gives you a greater ability to use your muscles. So this is actually something that people, you know, clenbuterol is used for weight loss and fat loss. But you know as far as increasing your power to weight ratios, it would help here and you know would help you lose weight. Wait as well while becoming stronger and lifting heavier weights for more reps and then if weight gain is not an issue, you don't care about gaining weight then yeah. Absolutely. You'd want to use high dosage testosterone with you know, Dianabol super jaw or Anna drawn and eating a lot of carbohydrates and a draw is the standard powerlifting hormone a stack of testosterone nandrolone and Draw those are the three standard powerlifting drugs that are time-tested and that's what a lot of the strength athletes are using. Okay, and our last question of the day is a really juicy one from Joel. Is it growth hormone that gives the 3D bubble muscle look like Jeremy buendia and others. Like super folic can that look be achieved without growth or is that the only way okay that ridiculously full look that looks like a bubble like you said that is insulin. Okay, and those kinds of gains are so transient because they are mostly storage factors that increase fuel storage and water in the muscle and that's what makes it look like that Bubble look because the Russell it's you know, when you say water inside the muscle that appears as muscle. Okay, it doesn't it doesn't make the muscle soft at all does the quality look as good as muscle that is primarily fiber without a lot of without a lot of fuel storage and water inside know the quality doesn't look as good but it still does look, you know the same as you know, it just looks like muscle and the muscle appears to be bigger Fuller and it's still a Hard muscle being full of water. So basically what guys can do is when they take growth hormone and Insulin together the growth hormone makes it so that their fat cells are insensitive to the effects of insulin and can't take in nutrition. And then they after they have the growth hormone in their blood. They then inject the insulin and then they eat massive amounts of carbohydrates. Okay, and so then the fat cells are blocked because of the growth hormone that's in their blood at the same time from up taking any of those carbohydrates and then Every gram of carbohydrates that goes into your body to grams of water come along with it. Okay. That's the rule. That's how your body functions. So when they take this insulin then and there it's all going to go into their muscles because they put the growth hormone in there first. Okay, and then they eat this massive amount of carbs in every gram of carbs carries the two grams of water. So they're getting a massive amount of volume like jack-hammered into their muscle cells. Okay, and that's how you get this really just ridiculous overly full. Bubble looking super round muscles like that and you'll notice a lot of times the muscles when they look like that it looks a little bit cartoonish. It looks a little bit cartoonish and it doesn't look quite as hard and grainy and fibrous and it just doesn't look as permanent. It doesn't really have quite as permanent of a look to it. Just when you look at it. It looks the quality just doesn't look quite as high but it does look very freaky and it's very Catching and it's a look that a lot of people want to look want to have because a lot of people don't want to look natural. They want to look like aliens. They want to look like freaky and they're wondering you know, how can I get that really big full look like that? And so the ones have it the most and you see these guys they look like bubbles. Okay, that that's primarily insulin. Those guys are using tons and tons of insulin, okay, but a less extreme version of that, which is more of a You know Jeremy buendia. Yeah, obviously he does use insulin but He is I wouldn't say that he's like, you know, he's got really good muscle quality to so he's not using high high dosages of insulin and I wouldn't say that his look is caused by insulin. I would say that insulin is a contributing factor, but equally as contributing is usage of pharmaceutical grade growth hormone because it does promote a really 3D separated alien look and it does also Produce that some of that round Bubble look and also better insulin sensitivity in the muscles and more fuel storage in the muscles. And the real thing that though that that growth hormone does is it promotes this look where there's division between each muscles. So where one muscle stops the next muscle starts and if you look at Jeremy buendia, he's really really got this look where one muscle starts the next muscles. Stops the where one muscle stops the next muscle starts. It's a it's a very very impressive look and he looks great. And so pharmaceutical grade growth. Hormone is a big factor there and what you're really looking at is a Synergy of chemicals. Okay, you're looking when you look at Jeremy when Dia when he's fully blown looking, you know crazy, you know, the there's three there's three main things happening there. Okay you're looking at Tremble own you looking at pharmaceutical grade human growth hormone and you're looking at insulin all at the same time. Okay, and then you're also looking at genetics that are good for that and you're also looking at diet and training that is you know spot on but the main thing if you're doing those things to you know, if you have you know, a decent muscle jip shape genetics you have, you know, your diet and training is on and then you know, if there's another thing that's missing especially if you're already like using some Are words using testosterone or something the the main thing that's going to be separating you from him is his use of tremble own insulin and human growth hormone all at the same time producing that look.
