Boldenone Use and Cycles

The use of boldenone is gradually becoming more respected by many top athletes, and more than just for its appetite-enhancing properties. I suspect that in previous years bodybuilders have not found boldenone use as beneficial due to the preparations available to them. One popular brand of boldenone undecylenate is Ganabol; a vetinary preparation of boldenone has just 50mg per 1ml of oil carrier. Even a modest dose of 400mg per week would necessitate the administration of 8ml of oil which, bearing in mind the user will probably also be cycling other steroids, a real inconvenience. It is this author's view that a minimum of 600mg/week of boldenone undecylenate is needed for beneficial effects, ideally 800-1000mg/week. With preparations such as Ganabol, doses of 800-1000mg/week would require 16-20ml per week, which is not very practical.

Given the mild nature of boldenone, one should not expect dramatic gains. One may compare the gains from boldenone to that of methenolone (primobolan) for example, in that the gains are slow and steady, however generally quite retainable post-cycle. As there is little aromatisation, little water weight will be put on, so many may be disheartened at the beginning of a cycle when compared to an AS such as testosterone, which will put on several pounds of water in the first week. However one must remember that this water will be lost post-cycle, and if one can gain 1lb of muscle per week then little more can be asked of any AS. Given the relatively long half-life of the undecylenate ester (at least 8 days) and the mild nature of boldenone, it is best taken for a minimum of 10-12 weeks. Users do tend to suggest that the drug is best utilised in longer cycles. PCT should begin approximately 3-4 weeks after the last shot of boldenone undecylenate. Although many people claim boldenone is useful for cutting given its low aromatisation rates and increasing vascularity, the amplification of appetite is a negative aspect for cutting. Thus it is my opinion that the best use of boldenone is as part of a bulking cycle. This use gets the most out of boldenone's benefits – namely increased appetite.

Alternatively boldenone could be stacked with other non-aromatising drugs such as primobolan (methenolone) or masteron (drostanolone) where the small amount of estrogen produced by boldenone is beneficial and the resultant gains should be lean and more easily kept. Given the long undecylenate ester (11 carbons) normally attached to boldenone, injecting the hormone twice a week is more than sufficient, although favourable for stable blood levels over injecting once per week. If one purely wants to use boldenone for its appetite enhancing properties, lower doses of 400mg/week should suffice for this purpose, although the full benefit of boldenone in my opinion is not achieved at these lower doses. Some example cycles are outlined below (I recommend in all cases 500IUs HCG is administered weekly from week 1 throughout the cycle as this will significantly aid recovery by helping to stop shut-down from fully occurring):

Novice Mass Cycle
500mg Testosterone Enanthate/Cypionate pw, weeks 1-12
600mg Boldenone Undecylenate pw, weeks 1-11
Dianabol 30mg ed weeks 1-4 (alternatively the injectables can be doubled in the first week for a front-load)
PCT – 3 weeks after last testosterone injection

Low-aromatising Mass Cycle
800mg Boldenone Undecylenate pw, weeks 1-12
600mg Primobolan (Methenolone Enanthate) pw, weeks 1-13
(Optional – Anavar 60mg ed, weeks 1-16)
PCT – 3 weeks after last Primobolan injection

Advanced Mass Cycle (For very experienced users – recommend regular bloodwork before, during and after such a cycle)
500IUs HCG pw, weeks 1-18
1000-1500mg Testosterone Enanthate/Cypionate/Sust pw, weeks 1-16
500-750mg Deca (Nandrolone Decanoate) pw, weeks 1-14
800-1000mg Boldenone Undecylenate pw, weeks 1-14
150-200mg NPP (Nandrolone Phenylpropionate) eod, weeks 14-18
150-200mg Testosterone Propionate eod, weeks 16-18
100-150mg Trenbolone Acetate eod, weeks 12-18
(Optional kick-start with 40-50mg dianabol ed weeks 1-4)
PCT – 3 days after last Trenbolone Acetate injection

Fat Loss Steroids

Quite often anabolic androgenic steroids are placed in two classes; bulking steroids or fat loss steroids/cutting steroids. While either phrase largely implies the desire behind anabolic use it can often at times be a bit inaccurate. The fact of the matter is very simple, most anabolic steroids can achieve either purpose; while the primary purpose of many steroids can vary, most possess a level of both qualities including body fat reduction; varying to a degree. For example, there are certain steroids that are far better served for adding mass, steroids that are far better served for increasing strength or performance. The same can be applied to fat loss steroids; while anabolic androgenic steroids do not carry with them the primary purpose of burning fat some will do so in a secondary fashion to a higher degree. What we’ve done here is listed some of the most common questions, myths and often confused ideas and followed it with the absolute truth. By following this list you will have a much better understanding of the concept of fat burning steroids.

One of the most common reasons anyone uses anabolic androgenic steroids is for the purpose of leaning out and cutting up. With this being a common primary purpose there is a strong desire to ensure you’re using the best fat loss steroids available. Not only are the introduction to fat loss steroids important to you in achieving this purpose but so are the performance enhancing drugs (PED’s) you will add in addition.

Let’s be very clear on one important factor regarding anabolic androgenic steroids; while they may possess fat burning qualities none of them serve this primary purpose therefor none of them can be labeled fat loss steroids in a primary sense. Anabolic androgenic steroids largely serve four general primary purposes:

    Increasing Strength
    Increasing Muscle Mass
    Increasing Athletic Performance
    Increasing the “Hardness” of a Physique

While these are the primary purposes they will vary to a degree from one steroid to the next; some steroids serve one purpose more than another while others serve an entirely different primary function. Even so, a secondary characteristic of many can be fat burning and thereby it is these we may generally label fat loss steroids.

Increasing Fat Loss Steroids Abilities

While the primary purpose is not fat loss but a secondary function, additional non-steroidal drugs can greatly benefit and add to this effect. Of those belonging to the hormone class, without question the best hormone we can add as well as the best PED of all to serve this purpose is Human Growth Hormone (HGH.) Not only can HGH greatly increase fat burning but it can further make the steroids we use more effective including their secondary traits.

Other commonly used PED’s used in this purpose most largely include Clenbuterol (Clen) and Cytomel (T3.) While neither is a steroidal drug, the former being a bronchial medication and the latter a thyroid medication both can be positive additions to a cutting cycle and increase the amounts of fat lost. While neither of these will change the structure of function of the steroids used, in a sense, due to the mode of actions by each PED being used, including the steroids, by this mode of action when coupled together, our anabolics become stronger fat loss steroids.
How to Stack Fat Loss Steroids

In most cases you will need to build your cycle around testosterone; not only is testosterone an important part of most cycles it is all-around the most efficient and effective steroid known to man. Beyond testosterone there are many additional items we can add that may more or less fall into the fat loss steroids camp. Steroids such as Trenbolone and Stanozolol are always top choices, as can be Equipoise and Anavar. Beyond the steroids, effective fat burners as mentioned above are always a helpful tool in addition; cycles and stacks with these items, in conjunction with solid anabolic androgenic steroids and HGH will prove to be the ultimate fat burning machines.

Q: What are the best fat burning steroids?

A: While the primary purpose does not revolve around body fat reduction, Trenbolone is without question the king of fat loss steroids available today. Partially due to its incredible nutrient partitioning capabilities and its androgen binding abilities Trenbolone can greatly increase the rate in-which adipose tissue is reduced. While any form of Trenbolone will generally achieve this purpose, most will find Tren-A or Trenbolone-Acetate to be the most efficient and effective.

Q: Can fat loss steroids be used successfully in a bulking cycle?

A: Absolutely and for good reason; anabolic androgenic steroids are not classified as fat burners and non-fat burners. While they may possess this trait it is often a secondary characteristic. Our example of Trenbolone is a perfect example, as are the steroids Stanozolol and Equipoise. While the first possess the ability of all traits, increasing mass, strength, hardness and fat loss abilities, the latter two possess the same without as much mass increasing properties. However, all three of these steroids can be used successfully in a bulking cycle and should never be labeled as cutters only.

Q: Can Dianabol & Anadrol be used as fat loss steroids?

A: The common belief is that neither Dianabol or Anadrol can be used in a cutting cycle and are only to be used during off-season, bulking or gaining phases; however, the truth is far from this way of thinking. There is no doubt about it, both of these steroids serve the primary purpose of adding muscle mass and both can greatly increase strength but make no mistake, both can be effectively used in a cutting cycle; in most cases this will be applied to competitive bodybuilders. However, the question remains; will they burn fat? While this is not their primary purpose by any means and we will not label either as fat loss steroid both can have a positive effect on body fat reduction. If for no other reason, when we increase our lean tissue we create a field that burns more fat; the more lean mass the greater the fat burning properties available.

Q: What is the most effective and safe fat loss steroid?

A: While fat loss is far from its primary purpose the steroid Anavar can achieve this in a secondary fashion. Not only does Anavar fall into the fat loss steroids category it is by far the safest anabolic androgenic steroid available and is largely free from any of the nasty side-effects commonly associated with steroid use.

Q: Should I avoid testosterone if trying to lean out?

A: This is perhaps the most misunderstood question of all and much of the urban legend surrounding testosterone as it pertains to this topic is nothing short of the worst advice you’ll ever hear. The truth is simple; most all anabolic steroid cycles should include testosterone. Not only is testosterone generally well-tolerated by most who use it, it is further imperative for proper bodily function as well as increasing or maintaining muscle tissue. In an all-around sense, testosterone is the best anabolic androgenic steroid available to any healthy male adult and while the many forms of testosterone are not fat loss steroids in primary function, their primary functions will lead to a leaner physique; much leaner than if it were not used.
The Bottom Line

There are literally hundreds of options we have when we consider how to stack, what to stack and how best to mix and match ourfat loss steroids with other fat burning tools. Regardless of the options we choose safety will always be our paramount concern. While fat loss steroids can be very useful and effective it is easier to run into problems when cutting when responsible use is not applied. In most cases it is a case of over eagerness, a desire to speed up the results. As are most things in life and this applies heavily to steroid use, display patience and discipline; your results and overall health will thank you in the end.

The Benefits of Human Growth Hormone

To understand the benefits of Human Growth Hormone we can largely see them by simply understanding its basic function(s) as discussed above; however, unfortunately as we age such benefits began to fall short as natural HGH production declines as we age and often at a rapid rate. For this reason more and more people the world over, both men and women have begun supplementing with biosynthetic Human Growth Hormone in an effort to avoid such a crash, as well as many athletes from baseball to football, track & field to bodybuilders and power lifters, gym rats and everything in-between. While therapeutic doses aimed at slowing down the signs of aging are common, as it pertains to the athletic world and performance enhancing doses are commonly much higher as the idea here is not to simply provide adequate levels but to surpass them so that the benefits can become further enhanced.

Through the use of supplemental Human Growth Hormone the individual can expect to reap the rewards of several beneficial applications and they apply universally to all who use it regardless of purpose; however, the rate of acceleration and the total end will largely vary from one to the next based on dosing and the coupling of anabolic androgenic steroids. Anabolic steroid use is very common with HGH use in the athletic world as both act in a means to work together enhancing the effects of each.

Those who administer biosynthetic HGH can largely expect a host of beneficial attributes such as muscle tissue growth, higher metabolic rates, a leaner and tighter physique, increased recovery within the body, increased bone, joint and tendon strength, healthier looking skin, as well as increased energy. While these are largely the physical attributes in their general sense, Human Growth Hormone goes far beyond the direct physical and holds other very important traits as well. Those who supplement with Human Growth Hormone will find they possess a greater clarity of thought and focus as well as enhanced moods overall as HGH can largely stave off such problems as depression. If levels of HGH in the body fall below optimal range each one of the positive benefits just discussed begins to decline as well; this is why as you can see proper levels are very important. In that same light, as levels increase beyond natural production each and every beneficial attribute is enhanced to degrees previously deemed unimaginable.

The Side-Effects of Human Growth Hormone (HGH):

Human Growth Hormone is without question among the safest hormones we can use in supplemental form and is largely more than well-tolerated by both men and women, even in large doses beyond simple therapeutic levels. However, as is with all hormone supplementation, all medications of all forms negative and adverse side-effects do exist but in responsible users they are not only avoidable but largely non-existent. Those who are obtaining therapeutic level doses will find side-effects rarely occur but such side-effects as bone growth in the hands, feet and jaw, carpal tunnel and slight water retention or bloat can occur in some. Most who use HGH for performance purposes, as the dose will be higher than therapeutic form many will notice a tingling feeling in the hands in feet, especially when use first begins and the body adapts. Beyond these possible but rare effects, when used responsibly, as you can see this is by far the safest hormone of all hormones in-which we can supplement with.

Real Human Growth Hormone:

As is common in the world of anabolic steroids, as HGH is not an anabolic steroid in any shape or form, like many steroids it is often counterfeited, so much so it is without question the most commonly counterfeited hormone in the performance enhancing world when purchased on the black market. Moreover, in recent years due to HGH popularity increasing many legal peptide fragments have hit the shelves; these fragments are often a partial Human Growth Hormone medication but this is like buying half a sandwich and one that won’t digest properly. While these fragment peptides are generally safe they are also generally worthless. When you are looking to obtain true blue Human Growth Hormone stay away from the generic black market brands and stick with true manufactures of the hormone such as Humatrope, Saizen, Serostim and Nutropin to name a few.

Human Growth Hormone Cycles and Doses:

Because it possesses such a high safety rating Human Growth Hormone can be used indefinitely; there is no max time frame in-which we must hold to. However, as beneficial as the hormone is it will take a long time to see such benefits; a few weeks of HGH therapy is a waste of money and a complete waste of good HGH. To reap a true benefit 16 weeks is generally the minimal amount of time you’ll want to supplement with HGH with 6 months being far more optimal. While this can be expensive consider this; the effects of Human Growth Hormone are largely permanent and that is worth noting.
