Sustanon information
Commonly used to put on mass and size while increasing strength. It leads to less water retention and estrogenic side effects.
Sustanon is a very popular steroid which is highly appreciated by its users since it offers several advantages when compared to other testosteron compounds. Sustanon is a mixture of four different testosterones which, based on the well-timed composition, have a synergetic effect.These substances are:
Testosterone propionate 30 mg, Testosterone phenylpropionate 60mg, Testosterone isocaporate 60 mg, Testosterone decanoate 100 mg
Sustanon effects
As with all Testosterone products, Sustanon is a strong anabolic with pronounced androgenic activity. It is most commonly used as a bulking drug, providing exceptional gains in strength and muscle mass. Although it does convert to estrogen, as is the nature of Testosterone, Sustanon injectable is noted as being slightly more tolerable than cypionate or enanthate. As stated throughout this book, such observations are only issues of timing however. Blood levels of Testosterone are building more slowly, so side effects do not set in as fast. For equal blood hormone levels however, Testosterone will break down equally without regard to ester. Many individuals may likewise find it necessary to use with this steroid an antiestrogen, in which case a low dosage of Nolvadex or Proviron would be appropriate. Also correlating with estrogen, water retention should be noticeable. This is not desirable when the athlete is looking to maintain a quality look to the physique, so this is certainly not an idea drug for contest preparation.
How Sustanon works
This special feature has two positive characteristics for the athlete. First, based on the special combination effect of the compounds, Sustanon, milligram for milligram, has a better effect than Testosterone Enanthate, cypionate, and propionate alone. Second, the effect of the four testosterones is time-released so that Sustanon goes rapidly into the sytem and remains effective in the body for several weeks. Due to the propionate also included in the steroid, Sustanon is effective after one day and, based on the mixed in decanoates, remains active for 3-4 weeks.
Sustanon has a distinct androgenic effect which is coupled with a strong anabolic effect. Therefore it is well suited to build up strength and mass. A rapid increase in body strength and an even increase in body weight occur. Athletes who use Sustanon report a solid muscle growth since it results in less water retention and also aromatizes less than either testosterone Enanthate or cypionate.
Sustanon Dosages
Sustanon is usually injected at least once a week., which can be stretched up to 10 days. The dosage in bodybuilding and powerlifting ranges from 250 mg every 14 days up to 1000 mg or more per day. Since such high dosages are not recommended and fortunately are also not taken in most cases the rule is 250-1000 mg/week. A dosage of 500 mg/week is completely sufficient for most, and can often be reduced to 250 mg/week by combining with an oral steroid.
In order to gain mass fast Sustanon is often combined with Deca Durabolin, Dianabol (D-bol) or Anadrol while athletes who are more into quality prefer combining it with Parabolan, Winstrol, Anavar or Primobolan Depot.
Although Sustanon does not aromatize excessively when taken in a reasonable dosage many people, in addition, also take an antiestrogen such as Nolvadex and/or Proviron to prevent possible estrogen-linked side effects.
The side effects of Sustanon are similar to those of Testosterone Enanthate (see also Testosterone Enanthate) only that they are usually less frequent and less severe. As Sustanon 250 is a strong androgen , we can expect the typical side effects. This includes oily skin, acne body/facial hair growth and premature balding. The addition of Proscar/Propecia should be able to minimize Sustanon side effects, as it will limit the Testosterone to DHT (dihydroTestosterone) conversion process. Sustanon will also suppress natural Testosterone production rather quickly. The use of HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) and/or Clomid / Nolvadex may be necessary at the conclusion of a cycle in order to avoid a hormonal crash. Remember though, Sustanon will remain active in the body for up to a month after your last injection was given. Beginning you ancillary drug therapy immediately after the steroid has been discontinued will not be very effective. Instead, HCG or Clomid (clomiphene citrate)/Nolvadex should be delayed two or three weeks, until you are near the point where blood androgen levels after Sustanon cycle are dropping significantly.
