Anadrol
Anadrol - Anadrol 50 is the strongest and at the same time also
the most effective oral steroid. The compound has an extremely
high androgenic effect which goes hand in hand with an extremely
intense anabolic component. For this reason, dramatic gains in
strength and muscle mass can be achieved in a very short time.
An increase in body weight of 10-15 pounds or more in only 14
days is not unusual. Water retention is considerable, so that
the muscle diameter quickly increases and the user gets a
massive appearance within record time. Since the muscle cell
draws a lot of water, the entire muscle system of most athletes
looks smooth, in part even puffy.
Anadrol 50 does not cause a qualitative muscle gain but rather a
quantitative one which in the off-season is quite welcome.
Anadrol 50 "lubricates" the joints since water is stored there
as well. On the one hand this is a factor in the enormous
increase of strength and on the other hand, it allows athletes
with joint problems a painless workout. Powerlifters in the
higher weight classes are sold on Anadrol 50. A strict diet
together with the simultaneous intake of Nolvadex and Proviron,
can significantly reduce water retention so that a distinct
increase in the solid muscles is possible. By taking Anadrol 50
the athlete experiences an enormous "pump effect" during the
workout in the exercised muscles. The blood volume in the body
is significantly elevated causing a higher blood supply to the
muscles during workout.
Anadrol 50 increases the number of red blood cells, allowing the
muscle to absorb more oxygen. The muscle thus has a higher
endurance and performance level. Consequently, the athlete can
rely on great power and high strength even after several sets.
Some bodybuilders report such an enormous and in part painful
"pump" that they end their workout after only a few sets or work
on another muscle. The often-mentioned "steroid pump" manifests
itself to an extreme by the intake of Anadrol 50 and during
workout it gives the athlete a fantastic and satisfying
sensation. The highly androgenic effect of Anadrol 50 stimulates
the regeneration of the body so that the often-feared "over
training" is unlikely. The athlete often feels that only hours
after a strenuous workout he is ready for more. Even if he works
out six days a week he makes continued progress.
Although Anadrol 50 is not a steroid used in preparation for a
competition, it does help more than any other steroid during
dieting to maintain the muscle mass and to allow an intense
workout. Many bodybuilders therefore use it up to about one week
before.". competition, solving the problem of water retention by
taking anti estrogens and diuretics so that they will appear
bulky and hard when in the limelight.
As for the dosage, opinions differ. The manufacturer of the
former Spanish Oxitosona 50 tablets, Syntex Latino, recommends a
daily dosage of 0,5 - 2,5 mg per pounds of body weight. A
bodybuilder weighing 200 pounds could therefore take up to 500
mg per day which corresponds to 10 tablets. These indications,
however, are completely unrealistic, much too high, and could
cause severe side effects. A dosage sufficient for any athlete
would be 0,5 - 0,8 mg per pound of body weight/day. This
corresponds to 1-4 tablets; i.e. 50-200 mg/day. Under no
circumstances should an athlete take more than four tablets in
any given day. We are of the opinion that a daily intake of
three tablets should not be exceeded. Those of you who would
like to try Anadrol 50 for the first time should begin with an
intake of only one 50 mg tablet. After a few days or even
better, after one week, the daily dosage can be increased to two
tablets, one tablet each in the morning and evening, taken with
meals.
Athletes who are more advanced or weigh more than 220 pounds can
increase the dosage to 150 mg/day in the third week. This
dosage, however, should not be taken for periods longer than two
to three weeks. Following, the dose should be reduced by one
tablet every week. Since Anadrol 50 quickly saturates the
receptors, its intake should not exceed six weeks. The dramatic
mass build up which often occurs shortly after administration
rapidly decreases, so that either the dosage must be increased
(which the athlete should avoid due to the considerable side
effects) or, even better, another product should be used. Those
who take Anadrol 50 for more than 5-6 weeks should be able to
gain 20 - 25 pounds. These should be satisfying results and thus
encourage the athlete to discontinue using the compound. After
discontinuing Anadrol 50, it is important to continue steroid
treatment with another compound since, otherwise, a drastic
reduction takes place and the user, as is often observed, within
a short period looks the same as before the treatment. No other
anabolic/androgenic steroid causes such a fast and drastic loss
in strength and mass as does Anadrol 50.
Athletes should continue their treatment with injectable
testosterone such as Sustanon 250 or Testosterone enanthate for
several weeks. Bodybuilders often combine Anadrol 50 with
Deca-Durabolin or Testosterone to build up strength and mass. A
very effective stack which is also favored by professionals
consists of Anadrol 50 100 mg+/day, Parabolon 228 mg+/week, and
Sustanon 500 mg+/week. This stack quickly improves strength and
mass but it is not suitable for and steroid novices. Anadrol 50
is not a steroid for novices and should only be used after the
athlete has achieved a certain development or has had experience
with various "weaker" compounds. Stories that the elite
bodybuilder uses 8-10 or more Anadrol 50 tablets daily belongs
to the realm of fairy tales. It is rare that any ambitous
competing bodybuilder can do without the support of 50 mg
Oxymetholon tablets; however, taking 8, 10 or 12 tablets daily
is more than the organism can handle. Anadrol 50 is to be taken
seriously and the prevailing bodybuilder mentality "more is
better" is out of place.
Anadrol 50 is unfortunately also the most harmful oral steroid.
Its intake can cause many considerable side effects. Since it is
17-alpha alkylated it is very liver-toxic. Most users can expect
certain pathological changes in their liver values after
approximately few week.
The compound oxymetholone easily converts into estrogen. This
causes signs of feminization (e.g. gynecomastia) and water
retention which in turn requires the intake of anti estrogens
(e.g. Nolvadex and Proviron) and an increased use of diuretics
(e.g. Lasix) before a competition. Bodybuilders who experience a
severe steroid acne caused by Anadrol 50 can get this problem
under control by using the prescription drug Accutane.
Other possible side effects may include headaches, nausea,
vomiting, stomach aches, lack of appetite, insomnia, and
diarrhea. The athlete can expect a feeling of "general
indisposition" with the intake of Anadrol 50 which is completely
in contrast to Dianabol which conveys a "sense of well-being".
This often creates a paradoxical situation since the athlete
continues to become stronger and bulkier while, at the same
time, he does not feel well. The increased aggressiveness is
caused by the resulting high level of androgen and occurs mostly
when large quantities of testosterone are "shot" simultaneously
with the Anadrol 50. Anadrol is not a steroid for older athletes
since they react more sensitively to possible side effects, and
the risk of liver damage and prostate cancer increases. Since
the drug is usually taken with a diet rich in calories and fat
needed to build up mass, the cholesterol level and the LDL
values might increase while the HDL values decrease. The body's
own production of testosterone is considerably reduced since
Anadrol 50 has an inhibiting effect on the hypothalamus, which
in turn completely reduces or stops the release of GnRH
(gonadotropin releasing hormone). For this reason the intake of
testosterone-stimulating compounds such as HCG and Clomid (see
relative characteristics) is absolutely necessary to maintain
the hormone production in the testes.
Anadrol 50 is not recommended for women since it causes many
and, in part, irreversible virilizing symptoms such as acne,
clitorial hypertrophy, deep voice, increased hair growth on the
legs, beard growth, missed periods, increased -libido, and hair
loss. Anadrol 50 is simply too strong for the female organism
and accordingly, it is poorly tolerated. Some national and
international competing female athletes, however, do take
Anadrol 50 during their "mass building phase" and achieve
enormous progress. Women who do not want to give up the distinct
performance-enhancing effect of Anadrol 50 but, at the same
time, would like to reduce possible side effects caused by
androgen, could consider taking half a tablet (25 mg) every two
days, combined with a "mild" injectable anabolic steroid such as
Primobolan Depot or Deca Durabolin. Ultimately, the use of
Anadrol 50 and its dosage are an expression of the female
athlete's personal willingness to take risks. In schools of
medicine Anadrol 50 is used in the treatment of bone marrow
disorders and anemia with abnormal blood formation.
