Dianabol

Dianabol Dianabol (17-alpha-methyl-17beta-hydroxil-androsta-l.4dien-3-on) is a new, orally applicable steroid with a great effect on the protein metabolism. The effect of Dianabol promotes the protein synthesis, thus it supports the buildup of protein. This effect mianifests itself in a positive nitrogen balance and an improved well-being. The calcium balance is positively influenced as well: Dianabol promotes the calcium deposits in the bones. Dianabol is indicated in the treatment of all diseases and conditions in which an anabolic(protein-buildup promoting) effect and a generally roborizing (entire organism strengthening) effect can be obtained.

Dianabol is similar to the chemical structure of 17-alpha methytestosterone. Dianabol, therefore, has a very strong anabolic and androgenic effect which manifests itself in an enormous buildup of strength and muscle mass in its users. Dianabol is simply a "mass steroid" which works quickly and reliably. A weight gain of 2 – 4 pounds per week in the first six weeks is normal with Dianabol. The additional body weight consists of a true increase in tissue (hyper-trophy of muscle fibers) and, in particular, in a noticeable retention of fluids. Dianabol aromatizes easily so that it is not a very good drug when one works out for a competition. Excessive water retention and aromatizing can be avoided in most cases by simultaneously taking Nolvadex and Proviron so that some athletes are able to use Dianabol until three to four days before a competition. The dosage spectrum, in particular for bodybuilders, weightlifters and powerlifters is very wide. It ranges from two tablets per day up to twenty or more tablets per day. Accordingly, an effective daily dose for athletes is around 15-40 mg/day. The dosage of Dianabol taken by the athlete should always be coordinated with his individual goals. Steroid novices do not need more than 15-20 mg of Dianabol per day since this dose is sufficient to achieve exceptional results over a period of 8-10 weeks. When the effect begins to slow down in this group after about eight weeks and the athlete wants to continue his treatment, the dosage of Dianabol should not be increased but an injectable steroid such as Deca Durabolin in a dosage of 200 mg/week or Primobolan in a dosage of 200 mg/week should be used in addition to the Dianabol dose; or he may switch to one of the two above mentianed compounds. The use of testosterone is not recommended at this stage as the athlete should leave some free play for later. For those either impatient or more advanced, a stack of Dianabol 20-30mg/day and Deca Durabolin 200-400 mg/day achieves miracles.

In fact, athletes who are not ambitious to compete will make highly satisfying progress with Dianabol. Competing athletes, more advanced athletes, and athletes weighing more than 220 pounds do not need more than 40 mg/day and in very rare cases 50 mg/day. It does not make sense to inerease the number of Dianabol tablets immeasurably since fifteen tablets do not double the effect of seven or eight. Daily dosages of 60 mg+ usually are the result of the athlete's ignorance or his plain despair, since in some athletes, due to the continued improper intake of steroids, nothing seems to be effective any longer. The simultaneous intake of Dianabol and Anadrol is not a good idea since these two compounds have similar effects. The situation can be compared to the intake of ten or more tablets of one of these drugs per day. Those who are more interested in Strength and less in body mass can combine Dianabol with either Anavar or Winstrol tablets. The additional intake of an injectable steroid does, however, clearly show the best results. To build up mass and strength, Sustanon or Testoviron Depot at 250 mg+/week and/or Deca Durabolin 200 at mg+/week are suitable. To prepare for a competition, Dianabol has only limited use since it causes distinct water retention in many athletes and due to its high conversion rate into estrogen it complicates the athlete's fat breakdown. Those of you without this problem or who are able to control it by taking Nolvadex or Proviron, in this phase should use Dianabol together with the proven Parabolan, Winstrol Depot, Masteron, Anavar, etc.

Since Dianabol's half life time is only 3.2-4.5 hours 1 application at least twice a day is necessary to achieve a somewhat even concentration of the substance in the blood. Scientific tests continue to show that on days of intense workout compared to rest days, the half-life time of Dianabol is reduced even further so that an application three times daily appears sensible. Since Dianabol is also 17-alpha alkylated and thus largely protected against a loss in effect, it is recommended that the tablets be taken during meals so that possible gastrointestinal pains can be avoided. On the third day after discontinuing the intake of Dianabol, proof of the substance methandrostenolone (methandienone) in the blood is negative. This means that the tablets are no longer effective. The athlete, however, should not proceed under the assumption that a urine test will be negative since the elimination of the metabolites of the substance methandrostenolone through the urine continues much longer. The maximum substance concentration of Dianabol reaches the blood after 1-3 hours. A simple application of only 10 mg results in a 5-fold inerease in the average testosterone concentration in the male (2). An important reason why Dianabol works well in all athletes is that the endogenous cortisone production is reduced by 50-70%. Thus, Dianabol considerably slows down the rate at which protein is broken down in the muscle cell.

Women should not use Dianabol because, due to its distinet androgenic component, considerable virilization symptoms can occur. There'are, however, several female bodybuilders and, in particular female powerlifters who use Dianabol and obtain enormous progress with 10-20 mg/day. Women who do not show a sensitive reaction to the additional intake of androgens or who are not afraid of possible masculinization symptoms get on well with 2-4 tablets over a period not to exceed 4-6 weeks. Higher dosages and a longer time of intake bring better results; however the androgens begin to be noticeable in the female organism. No woman who continues to care about her femininity should take more than l0 mg/day and 50-100 mg of Deca Durabolin/week over 4-6 weeks.

Although Dianabol has many potential side effects, they are rare with a dosage of up to 20 mg/day. Since Dianabol is 17-alpha alkylated it causes a considerable strain on the liver. In high dosages and over a longer period of time, Dianabol is liver-toxic. Even a dosage of only 10 mg/day can inerease the liver values; after discontinuance of the drug, however, the values return to normal. Since Dianabol quickly inereases the body weight due to high water retention, a high blood pressure and a faster heartbeat can occur, sometimes requiring the intake of an antihypertensive drug such as Catapresan. Additive intake of Nolvadex and Proviron might be necessary as well, since Dianabol strongly converts into estrogens and in some athletes causes gynecomastia ("bitch tits") or worsens an already existing condition. Because of the strongly androgenic component and the conversion into dihydrotestosterone. Dianabol has significant influence on the endogenous testosterone level. Studies have shown that the intake of 20 mg Dianabol/day over 10 days reduces the testosterone level by 30-40% (3). This can be explained by Dianabol's distinct antigonadotropic effect, meaning that it inhibits the release of the gonadotropic FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) and LH (luteinizing hormone) by the hypophysis. Another disadvantage is that,after discontinuance of the compound, a considerable loss of strength and mass often occurs since the water stored during the intake is again exereted by the body. In high dosages of 5O mg+/ day aggressive behavior in the user can occasionally be ebserved which, if it only refers to his workout, can be an advantage. In order to avoid uncontrolled actions, those who have a tendency to easily lose their temper should be aware of this characteristic when taking a high D-bol dosage. Despite all of these possible symptoms Dianabol instills in most athletes a "sense of well-being anabolic" which improves the mood and appetite and in many users, together wilh the obtained results, leads to an improved level of consciousness and a higher self confidence.

For years, the steroid black market has been the only supply source for athletes to get Dianabol where, proverbially, D-bol is available in all colors, forms, sizes, and under any imaginable name. Those, however, who are only interested in original compounds,should make sure that the selected compound is part of the list with common trade marks for methan-drostenolone (methandienone) or that the compound looks like the one in the photos following this description. According to our experience the Thailandian Anabol tablets and the Indian Pronabol-5 are the best compounds. The "Thai-landians," as they are often called by their users, can be easily identified. They are pentagonally shaped, of pink color and indented. One thousand tablets are packaged in a plastic bag which is contained in a labelled plastic box the size of a drinking glass. Note that the manufacturing date and not the expiration date is printed on the label. The plastic box is usually also shrink-wrapped. The price for a 1000-package lies around $500-$ 1000 on the black market. The Indian Pronabol-5, simply called "Pronas," is enclosed in an oblong box with ten strips of 10 tablets each. These tablets are round, white, and indented on one side. The original Pronas can be easily recognized since they come in a silver aluminum strip with a double bottom, and have a purple irnprint so that the tablets are invisible. Since the fake Pronabols are indented as well one must make certain not to purchase tablets in bulk or tablets contained in a normal push-through strip. Original Pronas, cost approximately $ 100 per package on the black market. Other easily available original compounds are the Polish Metanabol and the Czech Stenoion.

For a long time the Polish Metanabol was packaged in a small brown glass vial of 20 tablets each. Unfortunately, the tablets are not indented or marked so the contents of the vials can be easily substituted. Since 1994, Metanabol has only been available in blister strips of 10 tablets each, of orange color, and with their own packaging. The Czech Stenolon tablets have two indents on one side and Come in push-through strips of 20 tablets. Each push-through strip is included in a yellow-grey package. Note that there is no package insert since the entire user information is printed on the back of the small carton. On the black market usually only individual strips without packaging can be found since the packaging takes up too much room when smuggled. Because of the interesting price of these two compounds it is not unusual to find athletes who take tmentyor more tablets daily. The Rumanian Naposim contains 20 tablets in 2 blisters.

The Russian Dianabol is packaged in push-through strips of ten tablets each. Ten push-through strips are contained in a green box or are held together by a black rubber band and a rag similar to toilet paper. The imprint on the push-through strips is either blue or black. The tablets are not indented and it is of note that the substance amount is given in grams (0.005g/tabl.) Since the price is low the Russian Dianabol is often taken in two-digit quantities. Although the tablets cost only 2-4 cents in Russia, a price ef $0.50 is quite acceptable on the black market. The situation with the Russian compound is a little different since, in the meantime, numerous athlets have experienced unusual side erfects with these tablets. They range from nausea, vomiting, and elevated liver values to real cases of illness which have forced one or more athletes to stay in bed for several days. These tablets, however, have one thing in common: there is no doubt that they work powerfully. Due to the unusual number of side effects and simultaneously the positive effect, there is speculation that the Russian Dianabol is a simple 17-alpha methyltestosterone. Since Dianabol as already mentioned, a derivative of it, the two substances have similar effects. The fine difference, however is that oral 17-alpha methyltestosterone is clearly more androgenic and therefore causes more strain on the liver. Our opinion is that processing of the 17-alpha methyltestosterone in methandrostenolone was probably not carried out completely in the Russian Dianabol; consequently, several tablets contain a mix. It is also possible that during manufacturing of the Russian Dianabol old, expired, tablets were mixed with the produced substance and made into new tablets. We want to explicitly emphasize, however, that these are only speculations. Unfortunately, there are Already fakes of the Russian tablets available. They are only recognized as such after l-2 weeks of their intake when "nothing happens." As said before, in our experience the best results can be obtained with the Thailandian Anabol tablets and the Indian Pronabol
