Bridge between courses - drugs, options for bridge between courses, their effectiveness and side effects

Features of training on anabolic steroids, tips and recommendations on what training to use when you train on anabolic steroids.

High-intensity, strength training, pump training spend enormous energy resources of the athlete’s body, as a result of which overtraining can occur, which affects the athlete’s general fatigue, decreased performance, and physical activity, but the use of steroids allows this process to be dulled , and to train even harder, more intense and tougher.

No matter how much dirt is poured on anabolic steroids, they have always been and will be used in sports to achieve top results, because they really work. In this regard, beginners and professional athletes use them in the gym mainly to build muscle mass and strength, if the latter know how to train on steroids, then the former (beginners) have no idea, and are not at all aware of their actions, just because everyone is “on steroids, and I will be”, I want everything at once, if you also think, then it’s too early for you to use anabolic steroids in your training.

First of all, you must understand that in order to use steroids in your training, you must have at least five years of continuous training experience in the gym with iron, with proper training and nutrition, thereby you will create all the conditions for developing your physical potential, which you endowed by nature, the limit to which you should strive, the first sign will be a stop in the growth of muscle mass and strength indicators. Only under such conditions is the use of steroids justified and advisable, otherwise, you will throw your money and health down the drain.

Steroids will give you a huge leap forward, move you from a dead point, from a training plateau, if you have thoroughly mastered the information written above, and do not use anabolic steroids at a time when it has not yet come.

So, in order to understand how to train with steroids, how training with and without them differs, we need to remember the benefits that anabolic steroids provide when used in sports.

Bridge and PKT

At the end of the cycle, having reduced the daily dose of steroids to a minimum, you should add a light hormonal drug in small doses and take it in the morning so that the effect of synthetic testosterone completely disappears by night.
Taking it in the first half of the day minimizes the suppression of endogenous testosterone. The human body begins to produce it in the morning, and by 6 o'clock in the morning the level of the male sex hormone reaches its maximum.

On the “bridge”, drugs with an anabolic profile and mild side effects (oxandralone, masteron) are most often used.

Despite the higher androgenic activity, it is advisable to use methandienone as a maintenance drug.

The anabolic agent has a short effect, unlike others, which makes it possible to increase the daily dose; the last dose of the steroid should be taken before lunch.

At the end of the steroid course, it is necessary to take blood tests, and at the end of the course of therapy, the bodybuilder must repeat the tests. Usually, hormones and organs return to normal, but if test results deviate from the norm, PCT needs to be extended.

To restore the liver, it is best to undergo a two-week course of treatment with injectable heptral at a dosage of 400 mg per day.

To restore spermatogenesis and endogenous testosterone after completing a steroid course, you need to take Prignil at a dosage of 5000 IU per day for a month, and Proveron 50 mg per day for two weeks.

Break between steroid courses

Rest of the body between courses of medication is very important. This allows you to partially restore the body’s functions and adjust your next course depending on the results obtained.

There are two recovery options. In the first case, after undergoing active drug administration, the need arises after a course of therapy (or, as it is also called, a course between courses of steroids),

and only then rest from the drugs. In the second case, the rest period from pharmacology is skipped and a new course of steroids is immediately started.

Of course, for the health of a person taking steroids, it is better to take a full break,

but in this case, muscle mass will be lost due to prolonged inactivity. Therefore everyone

a professional athlete draws up his own individual program with mandatory consultations from a doctor.

On average, the time interval ranges from three months to a year. It all depends on the drugs that were used during the active period. It must be remembered that the course between courses of steroids also involves the use of various drugs, only weaker in their effects on humans.

body compared to previous ones.

During the recovery period, you should never use drugs that can slow down this process: for example, gonadotropin. Also, you should not suddenly give up physical activity. Exercise during rest is just as necessary as when taking medications.

Training at pkt

Hello to all lovers of chemistry lessons. This article is just for you, because... in it I’ll tell you how to maintain muscle mass after a course of steroids. Since most approach this issue illiterately, they are overtaken by a rebound after a course of steroids, and with the rebound, their long-awaited muscles fly away. It turns out that you have spent money and health, but the results are minimal. How can we avoid this?

Why is there a pullback?

While taking pharmacology, your hormonal levels greatly increase, which in turn allows you to recover faster after training, glycogen is synthesized faster and more, protein synthesis increases, and in general the process of homeostasis (equilibrium) shifts in favor of anabolism (growth). But after you stop taking doping, all the bonuses you received disappear, and your body not only returns to its previous state, but goes into the red. While taking doping, some organs rested, and the body stopped producing its hormones, because. there was no need for them, because we received excess hormones artificially from drugs. And what is the end result? After stopping the use of steroids, artificial testosterone no longer enters the body, and our natural one has not yet begun to be produced, so we get a rebound after a course of steroids.

2 main reasons for rollback:

1. Reduced amount of anabolic hormones (testosterone).

2. Increased amount of catabolic hormones (cortisol).

All the reasons for muscle loss lie in these two factors. If you continue to train the same way as you did during the course, then you can not only lose what you gained, but also go into a greater disadvantage, burn the muscles that were with you before the course. During rest after pharmacology, there is no talk of increasing strength or mass, because... this is impossible, the main task is to save as much as possible what you have collected, and for this you need 2 things:

1. Try to start recovery as quickly as possible after a course of steroids (restore your hormones).

You can read about this in the article “PCT after the course”.

2.Reduce catabolism caused by external stress (training).

Training after a course of steroids

As you can see, after the course we have a reduced level of recovery and an increased level of destruction. It’s already difficult for the body to be in a negative balance, but we also overload it during training, increasing cortisol, so training needs to be changed

It is very important to reduce the number of workouts per week and the volume of training itself (reduce the number of approaches). Many are accustomed to doping with a quick recovery to work 5 times a week, or even more, and try to digest this volume of load after the course, because

the body physically cannot cope with this, then you lose muscle mass, and even worse, you experience overtraining and injuries.

How should you change your workouts during post-cycle therapy?

After you finish taking doping, take a week's break from the gym and only then start this regimen.

1.Reduce the number of workouts per week to 2 maximum 3.

It is necessary to train hard in a strength style (6-8 repetitions), this way we will preserve more muscle, but the training should not be long.

5. We reduce the number of exercises for each MG and the number of working approaches to 2.

The thing that has helped me the most in maintaining muscle mass and strength is periodization of training. The first week I trained as written above, and the second week I reduced the working weight by 50% and did a very light workout purely for tone. Try it, it really works, there are fewer stress hormones, there is no risk of injury, and you won’t fall into overtraining.

Steroid bridge

Today there are about five hundred recommendations regarding how to properly start and finish your course. And if earlier recommendations for the use of gonadotropin were limited to the fact that it was recommended to use it after the course, now many researchers advise taking it both in the middle and at the beginning of the course itself. However, we will not go that far and will consider the issue regarding the “bridge” during and after the course.

General concept of the steroid bridge

By “bridge” in this case we mean a gradual increase in steroid dosages during the start of a course and an equally smooth decrease towards the end of this same course. Why did it happen? The reader will ask. And all because the researchers did not come to such conclusions easily. The fact is that our body adapts very quickly to any medications. That is why the peak of progress from using steroids occurs in the first month of their use. Next, our receptors become clogged. At the same time, liver parameters also increase, which again has a bad effect on the body’s perception of steroids. All this together leads to the fact that our body stops accepting steroids.

A condition occurs in which there seems to be no rollback, but no progress is observed at all... What does an athlete do to avoid stagnation?

Right! Increases dosage. Nowadays, for many beginners, the course resembles the Mr. Olympia course. No kidding. But why then is the progress of both different? It's all about the approach. Any professional bodybuilder begins his course with small dosages. And he increases them not at all when he wants, but when stagnation occurs. Next, various combinations of steroids are used, including the use of insulin and growth hormone. It is precisely the gradual increase in steroid dosages that prevents our receptors from adapting to them so quickly. The same applies to a gradual reduction in dosage towards the end of the steroid course.

What happens when we abruptly stop heading?

Testosterone begins to rapidly fall down. Long testosterone esters only partly solve the problem here. But if we lowered our dosages gradually, the body would have to adapt to the fact that it would be time to tune in to the fact that our body needs to start producing its testosterone again. Thus, the restoration of your own testosterone would be accelerated, and the side effects from them, on the contrary, would be reduced.

Remember the movie "Dark Areas"? In it, the main character was dependent on a magic pill, refusal of which instantly led to his death. In order not to die, he had to gradually reduce the dosage of the pill until his body adapted to living without it. Thus, the “bridge” on the course and towards the end of the course has a scientific background.

Conclusion

Now we should consider the issue of “bridge” between steroid courses. Personally, I do not believe in the advisability of such bridges. This is a kind of eternal course and slow but sure clogging of your own receptors.

For whom might the “perpetual course” be relevant?

For athletes who go on stage twice a year. But even they take a month or even two breaks from steroids. You need to understand that due to such a phenomenon as “muscle memory”, you can restore what you have lost very quickly. However, when it comes to the fact that the athlete’s contract requires him to be in excellent shape year-round, then “ an eternal course of steroids

"becomes a very relevant topic. Varying dosages on an “eternal course” is the very “bridge” between anabolic steroids.

Which steroid course is best for a beginner?

Minimizing waste with a bridge

If you decide not to limit yourself to one course, but want to repeat them again and again, gradually turning into an orc, then you should know what a “bridge” is between courses of taking anabolic steroids. With this approach, you really can practically not lose what you have gained, but it implies prolonged use of anabolic steroids in the future, with virtually no chance of jumping.

Its essence is that testosterone, in the form of steroids, still enters your body in small quantities after the cycle. To do this, you need to take other androgenic drugs by injection, in amounts up to 250 mg per week. This will partially compensate for the testosterone deficiency in the inter-cycle period of time, which should be at least 4 weeks. Androgens such as Omnadren 250, Testosterone Enanthate, Testosterone Cypionate, Sustanon are perfect for this.

There is also a similar “ritual” called HRT - hormone replacement therapy. It is also called the “perpetual course”. But this is a completely wild method, so we will not recommend it to you.

How to create a program to increase strength and mass - Andrey Zhuravlev

As a rule, the programs on the course are built on the principle of split training. Each muscle is worked out once every 4-7 days. You can also include in your training program the elements described in the article: Effective principles of gaining muscle mass. You shouldn’t think that when taking steroids you can relax and train carelessly, and “pharma” will do everything for you. We should not forget that steroids are only an addition to training and proper nutrition and will not make you stronger or bulkier on their own. There is also no need to go to the other extreme - train for wear and tear. In this case, no dose of AS taken will save you from overtraining. In addition, the increase in muscle strength significantly outpaces the development of the joint and ligament apparatus, so you need to be extremely careful during exercises so as not to get injured, especially since the use of certain steroids weakens the joints and ligaments. Typically, “mass-gaining” training using AC uses various types of weekly splits. For example, 1+1+1+1+1+2 - three training days and four rest days. Here the muscles of the body are divided into three groups, and each group trains once a week on its own day. Or a split for more advanced 5+2 - five days of training in a row plus two days of rest. Below are several options for training splits.

Note that here are examples of training splits performed within one week.

What your steroid training program might look like:

1 day

Chest (heavy), Triceps (light), Front deltoids, Abs

4 sets of 8-10 reps 4 sets of 8-10 reps 4 sets of 10-15 reps (triceps on block 4 sets of 12-15 reps) 4 sets of 10-12 reps 4 sets of max reps

Day 2

Back (heavy), Biceps (light), Rear deltoids

4 sets of 8-12 reps 4 sets of 6-10 reps 4 sets of 8-10 reps 4 sets of 6-8 reps 4 sets of 12-15 reps 4 sets of 12-15 reps 4 sets of 10-12 reps gives pronounced increases in strength indicators. You have the opportunity to train with much more weight than usual. Don't be afraid of the scales, constantly increase them. Remember that after completing the course, your strength indicators will drop. Therefore, you need to use it here and now.

Use caution when handling heavy weights. Ligaments do not have time to strengthen as quickly as strength indicators increase, so there is a possibility of injury. Use elastic bandages to secure your knees, elbows and hands. Wear a weightlifting belt when training your back and legs. Don't jerk the weights, but work with them smoothly. Be sure to ask for help with insurance.

When training on steroids, do not forget about the need. You can drink extra (although it is better to eat a lot of meat, eggs, fish and other foods containing a lot of protein).

After completing the course, be sure to reduce the intensity of your training. Reduce their number to 3 per week. Reduce the number of exercise sets and repetitions. Increase rest between sets. You can leave only the basic basic exercises in your training.

At the same time, try to keep the working weights large in order to give the muscles the necessary stress. Switch to low-intensity, low-repetition training.

After 4 weeks, begin to gradually increase the intensity of the load, gradually returning to your usual workouts. A full return to normal training will take about 6 weeks.

As soon as you started a course of steroids, the clock started counting down to the end of the course. It will end and time will be lost. You need to constantly train, squeezing the maximum possible out of your anabolic state. When the course is over, you can relax and reduce the intensity.

One of the central factors determining the success of the use of anabolic steroids, without exaggeration, is the reorganization of training. Mostly training program on steroid cycle

Not much different from regular training, but there are some features that will be discussed below in the text.

Rest and recovery

Obviously, when using drugs, the intensity and frequency of training should increase. However, this fact does not mean that you are obliged to exhaust yourself with endless loads every day. If you take steroids, your muscles and your body still need regular and systematic recovery. Therefore, not only the training program with steroids

, but also rest. So, the best option would be to load a single muscle group once every 4-7 days. To simplify the recovery process, you can create a split training program, triple split training (you need to schematically divide the muscles into 3 parts and distribute the training of these muscles on different days).

Important: do not forget that recovery is not only pauses between training certain muscles, but also healthy sleep. Training with steroids should be combined with sleep lasting from 8 to 10 hours a day. This way, you will give both your body and your brain enough time to prepare for future stress.

Features of training with steroids

The first thing to talk about is sets and repetitions. Their number is no different from that during regular training:

• Exercises – 2-3 per muscle group;
• Sets – 3 for each exercise;
• Repetitions – on average from 6 to 8.

They must last a certain and always constant amount of time: the optimal duration of training is 1-2 hours of classes. 60-120 minutes is enough to actively exercise and thereby activate muscle growth and development on a course of steroids.

Warm up before training

Many steroid drugs significantly and quickly increase your strength and endurance, but at the same time the strength of your tendons and cartilage does not change. As a result, there is a risk of injury, and quite serious one. For this reason, training on steroids should only follow a thorough warm-up. After all, if you get injured, the effectiveness of your future activities and course of steroids will decrease significantly. Moreover, if the injury is serious, you will not be able to return to your usual training regimen for a very, very long time.

High intensity training

The purpose of your training with steroids

is to create a maximum growth-stimulating effect on muscles. This can only be achieved through a progressive increase in weights and loads.

It is best to start your training cycle with moderate-intensity activities (your standard training program). And then, taking into account that no serious deviations have arisen, throughout the entire cycle it is necessary to gradually increase the intensity of training. All your subsequent workouts are on steroids

must use heavier and heavier weights. Thus, step by step you will be able to achieve the effect of muscle superstimulation, which in turn will ensure constant muscle growth and muscle development.

You should not resort to sudden changes in loads from the start of the cycle. In this case, you will deprive yourself of the possibility of further progression. It will also significantly increase your risk of serious injury. Your training on a steroid cycle should be smooth, one session should gradually flow into another with slightly larger weights and loads. If you give some specific numbers, then the best option is a 30% increase in weights from the beginning of the cycle to its completion.

Alternative 3-Day Split Options

Option one - during this version of the training split, the athlete combines training of the chest and triceps, back and biceps, leaving only the training of legs and shoulders from the basic option. The point of such a training program is to focus on working only large muscle groups, while small muscles are only “finished off” at the end of the workout with an isolating exercise. The advantage is that the athlete uses all resources only on large muscles, which allows for good progress in overall muscle mass, but the disadvantage is that the arms may begin to lag behind.

The second option is a three-day split that focuses on the arms. In this case, the athlete combines training of the legs and chest, back and shoulders and sets aside a separate training day for working out the arms.

The advantage of this program is that all resources are directed to the development of the upper body, since during training of the legs and chest the athlete trains the legs only to support and stimulate the endocrine system. Thus, this program helps to progress in the bench press, and due to the fact that the athlete devotes separate training to the arms, the arms also gain good volume. It makes sense to use this scheme only if the athlete has already gained good overall muscle mass, but the downside is that little time is devoted to the legs.

The third option involves grouping chest training with shoulders, legs with biceps and back with triceps. Again, the best progress in this scheme is the bench press, which requires sacrificing the shoulders, and, if the athlete intensively trains the legs, then the biceps. On the other hand, this allows you to actively train your legs, supporting your biceps, and helps your deltoids recover better for each subsequent chest workout, because when you train your shoulders with legs, then by the next pectoral workout, the anterior deltoids may interfere with your progress in the bench press. However, this scheme does not have many visible advantages, but it is suitable for those who have poor chest feeling and want to push their legs.

A three-day split can be used to build muscle mass and during cutting.

It is most effective to use this training scheme for the growth of muscle mass, since during drying it is worth paying special attention to preserving muscles, for which you should train in a strength style so that the body simply cannot afford to burn the muscle fibers it needs so much. As for gaining muscle mass, in this case you should definitely use a bodybuilder’s diet, which will help create a calorie surplus, which is the main condition for anabolism

Remember, protein, vitamins, frequent meals are all important, but these are details that only work when there is an excess of nutrients in the body, using which the body synthesizes new muscle tissue!

The key to a properly organized workout is the use of basic exercises, training time and rest between sets. Thus, the athlete should use as many basic exercises as possible in his training split and use isolation exercises only as the third or fourth exercise when the basic exercises are no longer enough. It is necessary to rest between sets for 40-60 seconds, since this type of training best stimulates hypertrophy of muscle fibers. In addition, a bodybuilder’s training must be voluminous and last no longer than 40-50 minutes, so a bodybuilder cannot afford a long rest!

Recommendations for training

• time spent in the gym should not exceed 45-55 minutes, try to fit within this time • perform 3-4 different variations of the exercise for one working muscle group • perform 3-4 working approaches and 1-2 warm-up approaches for one exercise • the number of repetitions should be 6-12 in the working approach and 8-15 in the warm-up

The main principle in the training process on a cycle of anabolic steroids: constant progress in working weight (gradual increase in working weight, as well as the number of approaches and exercises).

At the beginning of the second week of the course, add an additional exercise to your training plan.

Gradually increase: the number of exercises, the number of approaches and repetitions, as well as the working weight and the intensity of the exercise itself. It is very important to monitor your progress, keep a diary, write down your workouts, observations, and also keep a food diary. Such an integrated approach is necessary in the AAC course.

Break your workout into splits, i.e. train a muscle group on a separate day, for example:

Monday: legs Tuesday: chest + front delt Wednesday: back + rear delt Friday: shoulders + arms Saturday: kick

Rest between sets should be at least 60 seconds.

Drugs that help with PCT

Letrozole

Letrozole versus estradiol.

Letrozole – blocks estrogen and stimulates the production of your own testosterone. Experiments show that 0.5 mg of letrozole increases the level of own testosterone by 50% after 2 days, and 2.5 mg (1 tablet) after 2 days increases the level of own testosterone by 75%.

Taking letrozole

When and how to start taking letrozole. There are two options for using aromatase inhibitors.

During the cycle - it should be used in a situation where you have excessive aromatization, when your body converts too much testosterone into estrodiol. The likelihood of gynecomastia, female obesity, etc. increases.

Dostinex

Dostinex - fights prolactin. Dosages are the same as letrozole.

Which contributes to faster testosterone recovery.

Faster testosterone recovery protects you from such consequences as gynecomastia, female obesity, and poor potency.

Weaker anti-estrogen, but better stimulates testosterone production

Tamoxifen citrate

A stronger anti-estrogen and worse promotes testosterone production.

There are drugs after which it is better not to use tamoxifen during PCT; these are drugs with prohistogenic activity:

It is better not to take Tamoxifen with these drugs, because it increases the number of prohistogen receptors, and therefore you can get a lot of unpleasant side effects because of this.

Dosage Tamoxifen citrate

• 1 day – 80 mg
• During the week, 40 mg
• Then a couple of weeks at 20 mg

Clomid

Dosage of Clomid (clomiphene)

• Day 1 – 200 mg divided into 4 doses of 50 mg
• Afterwards, use an increased dosage of 100 mg (2 tablets of 50 mg each) for a week.
• After this week, switch to a reduced dose of Clomid 50 mg per day.
• The total duration of taking Clomid is + - 1 month.

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)

HCG is luteinizing hormone, which is the drug that causes your testicles to produce testosterone. But this is an artificial thing, so after the steroids stop working in your system, hCG does not work well.

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin is best used during and after a cycle of steroids to ensure your testicles continue to produce testosterone.

HCG dosage

• 2000 hCG every other day for a week. Monday 2000, Wednesday 2000, Friday 2000.
• There is an option to use 500 units of hCG every day for 10 days.

Proviron

• Blocks aromatization
• Blocks the action of globulin
• Increases libido after a course of steroids

Proviron dosage

50 mg per day, divided into two doses in the morning and evening.

Karsil

Copes with all major liver-related tasks. Restore liver cells and protect them.

Carsil dosage

270 mg per day - 3 times a day, 90 mg for about 3 months.

Increased pressure on the PCT

The pressure should be 140 over 90 beats per minute.

To stabilize blood pressure, there are drugs such as:

• Enalalril – 5 mg per day
• Metoprolol – 50 mg per day

Lower cortisol

The main catabolics are:

Steroid course for beginners

Any novice athlete wonders which course to choose to achieve maximum effect. First of all, you need to consult your doctor to determine the list of steroids that can be used. The most common mistake among novice athletes is choosing and taking steroids on their own. The consequences of rash decisions can cause considerable harm to the body.

One of the most widely used courses for “beginners” is Methandrostenolone 10 mg per day for 11 weeks. When taking steroids, bridges must be observed (this will be a one-week break every fourth and eighth week).

The following course has become widespread - the steroids Dianabol (20-30 mg per day) and Deca-Durabulin (200-400 mg per week). They are considered the most effective for gaining muscle mass. The total duration of the course is 6 weeks, but after 3 weeks you must additionally take Clomid - one tablet per day. After the six-week period, you must take Proviron tablets for three weeks, one tablet per day.

Another common course is a combination of Turinabol and Primobolan. Turinabol is taken according to the following schedule: two tablets in the first and sixth weeks, and three tablets per day in the remaining weeks; Primobolan twice a week. The course is designed for six weeks and after its completion you should take Clomid tablets. Clomid also has its own schedule: in the first week - two tablets a day, in the second - one. This is a universal instruction for taking these drugs; for the best effect, you need to draw up a personal dosage plan with your doctor and trainer.

How to avoid rebound after a course of steroids

Are you sitting and wondering how to avoid a rollback? To avoid rolling out your lip too much, we’ll answer right away: no way! It will come in any case, but for everyone differently. However, it can be minimized with a well-designed course and reasonable behavior after completion. So, here are a number of recommendations that will help you preserve your muscles as much as possible, and partly your precious health (although it is unlikely that it is so precious for you, since you decided to “take a bite”).

• If you are still an inexperienced villain (and most likely you are, since you are reading this), and just decided to have fun once, then you are not recommended to carry out a prolonged intake, for example, of methane, since the “recovery” from it will be longer. The optimal period is 6 weeks.
• Be sure to eat plenty of protein foods and drink protein shakes. This will saturate the body with protein and slow down the process of its breakdown.
• The intensity of training after anabolic steroids should be significantly reduced. Heavy loads during exercise can only aggravate drainage, since at this time there is not enough “building material” for muscle growth. Do 2-3 workouts a week, no more. Lift dumbbells and barbells while lying down - that's enough for now.
• Carry out post-cycle therapy, because you need to restore your hormonal levels, the functionality of the genital organs and protect yourself from the effects of estrogen. Take the following medications to choose from: Gonadotropin, Proviron, Clomiphene or Tamoxifen. Thanks to PCT, you will quickly put your hormonal levels in order, which will allow you to maintain maximum weight after the course.
• It is also recommended to take Gonadotropin or the herbal food supplement Tribulus together with AAS. This will balance testosterone levels with gonadotropin hormone, which will further reduce the degree of muscle drainage during recovery.

Following all the above instructions requires approximately the same amount of time spent on the course itself.

Bridge between steroid cycles

The restorative rest between courses of steroids is called a “bridge.” The name comes from a direct analogy: the two banks of the “active courses” are connected by a “bridge of supporting medications.”

A bridge between steroid courses is necessary to maintain the existing amount of muscle

masses

and cleansing the body of the negative effects of steroids after an active course of use. Helps restore the functions of the human body to normal levels.

The main purpose of “bridges” is to support the existing state of the body with minimal losses. For active growth, it is necessary to undergo a full course of taking steroids along with constant training and stress.

In order for the recovery process to proceed more smoothly and effectively, it is recommended to adhere to certain conditions:

1. Reduce the load during training. This is due to the fact that testosterone levels are reduced during the bridge;
2. The diet developed during the period of taking steroids must be followed;
3. It is advisable to diversify your diet with vitamins, proteins and proteins;
4. Be sure to follow a sleep and physical activity schedule.

How and how much to train on the course

When purchasing any steroid, a new athlete often asks the question: How many workouts should there be per week? Many are inclined to think that they probably need to train almost every day, because they bought expensive drugs and need to get the maximum effect from the course. In fact, training on a course of steroids costs no more than three times a week for the average athlete. The main task is to gradually increase the working weights, increase the intensity of the workout, and even increase the duration of the workout itself. If for a person who does not take anabolic steroids, training is considered effective within one hour, then with the help of steroids we can get the maximum result in training from one and a half to two hours. It’s definitely worth increasing the number of approaches in each exercise, but the number of repetitions increases depending on the course for cutting or mass. But still, the initial task of any beginner is to gain muscle mass, which means that basic exercises that give the maximum gain are more suitable for you. Do not focus on isolated pumping of individual heads, because in this way the weight gain will not be large. This training option is used by many average athletes and it ensures that you do not experience overtraining and your body can recover well before the next workout.

Separately, we can say for the restoration of muscles and the body between workouts. It really is easier to train on steroids, especially when you can see how your muscles swell with every lift of the barbell. In this case, the athlete gets great pleasure from watching his muscles grow. But do not forget that without good rest, you will not be able to get such results. It can definitely be said that anabolic steroids give our body a fantastic ability to quickly recover, both between heavy approaches and between workouts. Therefore, remember that in just a day you can recover well and continue to get results in training, but do not forget about overtraining, because this can reduce your course to complete zero.

Technically, a training program on a steroid cycle

will be little different from your regular workouts.

The only thing is that you can and will need to use high-intensity training methods on steroids

such as cheating, pyramid, “Method 21”, etc. But the quantity and quality of training should increase significantly to get the maximum benefit from taking steroids.

Exercise as often as possible

Taking anabolic steroids significantly speeds up muscle recovery time after training. This means you need to use this and train as often as possible. The minimum volume of training days is 4 per week. By training less frequently on a steroid cycle, you will simply waste precious time when the steroids are working to their full potential in your body.

If you think that by taking steroids you can train twice a week and get great results, forget it and don't take them at all. There is no need to transfer the product to the toilet.

In order to have something to restore, you must first destroy something, that is, train. Training on steroids means more destruction, more recovery and growth.

Train as long as possible

Training on steroids can and should continue for quite a long time. On average twice as long as your normal workout without steroids. Steroids increase muscle endurance and this should be used. But this does not mean that you need to rest for 5-10 minutes between approaches and pull the cat by the balls.

Add more exercises to your training program. If you do 2 triceps exercises, add two more. Use the entire rich arsenal of both basic and isolated exercises to work each muscle group to the maximum. The greater the stress on the muscle, the greater the muscle growth.

Recovery

Since anabolic steroids restore an athlete tens of times faster and better after training, you should train more intensely, “don’t feel sorry for yourself.” Thanks to anabolic steroids, retabolil, methandrostenolone, and many others, Arnold Schwarzenegger could train every day, it happened so hard that he fainted, and this did not stop him from growing, progressing and winning in competitions, but as you understand, without anabolic steroids, with With such training he would get absolutely nothing but overtraining, so it’s worth remembering this fact. If you want to train hard, persistently for many hours, without steroids, then increase your rest and your recovery.

What anabolic hormonal agents to use and dosages

1. Testosterone propionate and cypionate (enanthate) (the dosage of propionate at the peak of the course is 100 mg per day). The dosage of cypionate (enanthate) is 500 mg per week.
2. Nandrolone decanoate (400-500 mg per week).
3. Trenbolone hexahydrobenzylcarbonate (200 mg per week).
4. Primobolan (dosage at the peak of the course is 600 mg per week).
5. Methandienone (60 mg per day).
6. Turinabol (40 mg per day).
7. Oxandrolone (40 mg per day).

Testosterone propionate is used at the very beginning, as a drug with a pronounced anabolic profile and serves for an aggressive start. The drug gives energy and sports aggression.

Methandienone, turinabol, primobolan are used as basic, background drugs.

Testosterone cypionate or enanthate, nandrolone and trenbolone hexahydrobenzylcarbonate work as powerful mass-gainers.

Oxandrolone is a bridge agent and is used during PCT and as a “bridge.”

First course of Turinabol: rules of admission

Turinabol is usually taken three times a day after meals, but it is believed that the best effect is achieved if you take it between meals. Since the drug is a “short” steroid, it must be taken daily every 6-8 hours. This will allow you to constantly maintain testosterone at the required level.

Turinabol combines well with other steroids, which allows you to create combined courses to achieve better results.

Important! To support joints during a period of rapid muscle growth, it is recommended to take Glucosamine Chondroitin throughout the course and on PCT! You should start your Turinabol course smoothly:

First day: 20 mg.

Second day: 30 mg.

Third day: 40 mg.

Dosage 40 mg. remains until the end of the course. From the very beginning of taking it, you need to carefully monitor the body’s reaction and, if negative symptoms appear, reduce the dose or stop taking the drug.

Reviews from people who completed the first course of Turinabol speak of a gradual but high-quality gain in mass and an increase in strength and endurance. Despite the high price and slow action, this drug is popular both among beginners who have just begun to seriously engage in sports, and among professionals.

Turinabol for beginners: features of the course of treatment

For beginners, it is especially important to increase and decrease the dosage gradually. For those just starting to take steroids, it is not recommended to use accelerated regimens, despite the fact that they allow you to achieve results with minimal cost.

Five-week course of Turinabol solo for beginners:

1 week: 2 tablets. in a day.

Week 2: 3 tablets. in a day.

Week 3: 4 tablets. in a day.

Week 4: 3 tablets. in a day.

Week 5: 2 tablets. in a day.

How to train effectively on the Turinabol course

Training with steroids is not fundamentally different from regular training. The difference is that steroids significantly improve the body's recovery abilities, due to which you can train more often without overworking your muscles. However, a sharp increase in load will do more harm than good, so before you start exercising, you need to create the right training program. To grow muscle mass, it is optimal to use five-day split programs that meet the following principles:

· training time - 40-45 minutes;

· 3-4 exercises for each muscle group;

· for each exercise - 3-4 approaches;

· in each approach - 6-12 repetitions.

In the first week of the course, you need to increase the number of approaches for each exercise. This will significantly increase performance. At 4-5 weeks, when you feel normal, add one exercise to each muscle group. At the end of the course, you should try to do the maximum number of repetitions in each approach.

While taking Turinabol, working weights will also likely increase - steroids significantly increase endurance and strength.

Important! During training, you need to drink 100 ml of water every 10-20 minutes to maintain hydration.

People who play sports and spend a lot of time in the gym eventually begin to think about taking special medications - steroids.

Effective diet during the course

• Breakfast No. 1 – rolled oats with 1 glass of water, half an hour after sleep.
• Breakfast No. 2 – 100 grams of buckwheat +100 grams of meat and vegetables.
• Lunch – 50 g buckwheat + 100 grams of meat with vegetables.
• Afternoon snack – 50 grams of buckwheat + 3 eggs.
• Before starting training – carbohydrates + amino acids (or taking a gainer).
• Dinner – 100 grams of buckwheat + 175 grams of meat + vegetables + 2 eggs (+ creatine, if necessary).
• Dinner No. 2 – 100 grams of meat + vegetables + 2.5 eggs.
• An hour before bedtime - cottage cheese or a protein shake.

As can be seen from the diet, the amount of protein is increased here. Buckwheat can be replaced with rice or eaten in turn. Eggs should be eaten boiled; it is advisable not to eat raw or fried eggs. During this period, you can additionally consume protein, creatine and amino acids to improve your performance. To maximize the effect, the diet is divided into several meals, taking into account such rules as more carbohydrates in the daytime, and less protein in the morning, but more in the evening. In this regard, the second dinner does not include long-term carbohydrates, but meat is consumed. It is better to eat protein an hour before bed so that it nourishes the muscles at night, preventing catabolism processes.

During periods of training, the body needs plenty of fluids, so you should drink water regularly and in full. Immediately after sleep, it is advisable to drink a glass of water, which will start the stomach. This rule will also be useful for everyday life.

Training after a course of anabolic steroids[edit | edit code]

Training after a course of anabolic steroids. Author: Denis Borisov

It is important to know not only how to train during the cycle, but also after it. At the end of taking anabolic steroids, testosterone levels drop below the original level, and if appropriate preventive measures are not taken during this period, then within a month all results will be lost.

PCT required after cycle

As soon as you stop taking anabolic steroids, begin to reduce the intensity of your training. The concept of intensity includes, first of all, the weight and number of exercises, as well as the duration of the workout (many advise reducing it to 30-40 minutes). The greater the intensity, the more the muscles are stressed.

So, if you started the cycle with 100% intensity, by the end of the cycle you reached 130%, a week after the cycle the intensity should decrease to 70%, and after 2 weeks to 50%!

Thus, 2 weeks after the cycle you should leave the gym without feeling tired. If you continue with your previous program, your muscles will quickly begin to break down under the influence of powerful catabolic processes. In this case, you should try to keep the weights heavy (to give the muscles enough stimulation), but reduce the number of repetitions and increase the rest between sets. High-repetition training is not recommended because it more strongly activates catabolic processes.

4 weeks after the cycle, you can increase the load to 80%, after another 2 weeks to 100%, after which continue to exercise according to the usual program.

Course for weight

In the course of weight gain, it is not advisable to use drugs from non-aromatizing groups, because estradiol is needed for a certain proportion with testosterone; if there is very little of it, then muscle mass growth will go very poorly.

Combinations of non-aromatizing drugs such as boldenone + turinabol, or oxandrolone and nandrolone are bad combinations, they will grow very poorly, because they do not have testosterone or methane.

Conclusion: a non-aromatizing steroid combines very well with an aromatizing one.

Oral steroids

An important rule is not to use several oral steroids at once during a weight gain course; if you eat tablets, then only some, then only one, and methandrostenolone is best suited in tablets. Your weight gain course should contain either testosterone or methane

Your weight gain course should contain either testosterone or methane.

The main side effects of courses on weight

• Blood pressure
• Strong aromatization (estrogens)
• Increased prolactin levels
• Strong progestogenic activity
• Strong rise in DHT levels
• Liver overload
• Kidney overload
• Raising bad cholesterol
• Reduction in testicular size

How to deal with side effects in weight courses

• If there is a lot of estradiol in your system (high aromatization), you can block the action of estrogen if it is formed - tamaxifen. Or you can use aromatization blockers - Letrazole, divide 1 tablet for the whole week (break into several parts).
• If prolactin levels are high, you need to take Dostinex - 1 tablet divided throughout the week (break into several parts)
• If progesterone is high, you need to add oral Winstrol (stanozolol) to your weight course.
• If dihydrotestosterone is high, you need to take finosterite, it is enough to take 2 mg per day in order to reduce the level of conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.
• Liver is the best hepatoprotector, the remedy is Karsil, take 9 - 10 tablets a day for 3 months. To restore and renew the liver.
• Cholesterol – to reduce bad cholesterol, you need to add omega-3 fats to your diet; sea fish contains a lot of these fats.

But what is most important? Without what will muscles not grow at all?

Muscle growth is impossible without a properly designed diet to gain muscle mass. A diet for muscle growth should take into account your individual parameters: gender, weight, age, body type. The diet should create a calorie surplus. You should be getting an excess of the right calories from food than you burn in a day based on your daily activity.

If you do not want to delve into the jungle of “dietology”, but want guaranteed results from training and the use of steroids, we suggest using the services of our nutritionist and trainer to create an individual training and nutrition program.

Nutrition is the main anabolic

Neither the use of steroids nor “hardcore” (or not so hardcore) training will bring you the desired muscle mass if you do not follow a DIET TO GAIN MUSCLE MASS!

Naturally, muscles will not grow on their own, no matter what the proper nutrition.

Weight training and the resulting release (or use of synthetic hormone analogs (testosterone and growth hormone) are the catalyst for muscle growth, but nutrition is the main factor in muscle growth.

Let's take a closer look at each component of a competent approach to gaining muscle mass:
