Cycling Techniques

Steroids and Related Drugs will be most effective for most users if they are cycled.  A cycle is a logical and effective pattern that is followed in order to get the best results of the different drugs that are taken. This pattern is utilized in order to reduce side effects associated with long term usage of the drugs.  The most effective cycles are the ones that are the shortest in duration and give the desired results with the fewest side effects.  The average length of a steroid  cycle is 6 - 12 weeks in duration.  The length of time for an off steroid cycle is at least 3 months.  To be the safest you can be if you do elect to do steroids, you should not do more than 2 or 3 cycles a year. Off cycle periods are utilized so that your body will return to normal as far as the production of testosterone and other normal hormone patterns.

ii. More Advanced Cycles:


Advanced Cycle 1
Notice that the Cycle is kick started with Dianabol, one the most anabolic drugs in existence. The 17- alpha alkylated Dianabol may do some damage to your liver if used for a longer time, therefore Sustanon Replaces by the 5th Week. Similarly androgenic and anabolic but not toxic to the liver. Deca- Durabolin(Nandrolone Decanoate) is used throughout to benefit from the synergistic effects. Both D-Bal and Sustanon stack well with any Nandrolone Steroid. H.C.G, Human Chironic Gonadotropin is used after the 8 week cycle to kick start the natural Testosterone Production and to prevent big losses in mucle and strength.


Advanced Cycle 2
In this Cycle Sustanon and Dynabolan is used. Sustanon dose is tripled by the 7th week which makes this cycle very anabolic and androgenic. Dynabolan, a nandrolone is similarly anabolic, but will work better as it is stacked with a testosterone steroid(Sustanon). many people will experience excessive facial and body hair growth during this cycle. Other than than minor cosmetic side-effects it is a genrally safe cycle as H.C.G(Brand name Pregnyl) is used to kick start the Natural Testoterone production at the midpoint of a cycle. Not for a pre-contest because Sustanon will draw up water and cause retention.
 

Advanced Cycle 3
This Cycle is a very potent Off-Season Mass, Bulking up Cycle. Should be used by experienced people only as novices may experience overwhelmingly horrendous acne. Dianabol and Sustanon play a key part once again, but this time for longer periods and higher doses. Notice the Pyramiding of all three steroids. Tapering off will minimize testoterone shut down at the end of the cycle. H.C.G is used extensively as you can see for it is likely that the testosterone will be flat out by mid and end cycle. A very worthwhile and economic stack. A 30+pound of muscle alone can be achieved.



Advanced Cycle 4
One of the more popular of the steroid cycles.  In this cycle each steroid is only taken for 3 weeks at a time.  The reasoning for this is that people think that steroid receptors wont be as saturated with only a 3 week dose of any given drug. The idea is that since the receptors will not be saturated the user will make almost continuous gains during the length of the cycle.  Again you will see the familiar Anadrol/Testosterone combinations early in the cycle and the Dianabol/Deca combo furthur into it.  The reasoning for this is that these different  steroids seem to work better together than other combinations.  Towards the end of the cycle  there is the usual 2-3 week dose of HCG to bring natural testosterone production back on line and then a 3 week dose of clenbuterol to help shed some of the excess bodyfat that was gained during the cycle as well as making the newly gained muscle easier to see.  You would want to consider using Nolvadex along with some Proviron if available also during this lengthy cycle.


Advanced Cycle 5
This is not a novice cycle.  Most would not be able to afford this one unless they were serious about competing.  This cycle combines many of the best precontest/cutting steroids that you can get.  Most of these steroids do not aromatize and do not make you hold water either which is important for competitions.  With the Deca, you can maintain most of the quality muscle gains that will occur with this cycle.  The parabolan and the masteron are excellent precontest steroids as well.  The parabolan will give a massive increase in the muscle hardness and the masteron will increase muscle sharpness as well and will not aromatize at any dosage which is the reason for the higher dosages twords the end of the cycle.  The clenbuterol is  taken the whole time to keep the fat burning of the cycle at a maximum.  Cytomel is taken towards the end to keep the metabolism high while on low calories and works synergistically with the clenbuterol to get excellent results.
