Stacking Dianabol with Injectable Steroids


Dianabol is a “17 alpha alkylated” steroid. It works by affecting the protein synthesis and supports the buildup of protein. This is a powerful steroid with both anabolic and androgenic effect on the user. This results in a quick and powerful buildup of strength and muscle mass making its primary use in conjunction with mass building injection stacks.

With this in mind Dianabol in commonly paired with injectable testosterone, (enanthate, cypionate and sustanon). The primary reason for this is to kick-start the mass building process. The aforementioned testosterones can take up to 3 – 4 weeks before becoming effective. The kick-start process will improve the gains in muscle mass, strength and the improvement of muscle pumps. There could be a weight gain of 2-4 pounds every week with the proper nutrition and training.

 Weight gain:

The reason for the weight gain is due to the fact that there is growth in the muscle fibers along with water retention. Dianabol aromatize quickly and easily, as a result of its high estrogenic properties. Due to these properties it is not advised to take prior to competition.

Side effects:

Because Dianabol goes into the category of 17-AA it is liver toxic. Over extended periods of time this can create high stress on the liver.
With the increase in weight due to its being a hypertrophy and water retention this could increase ones blood pressure to the point of requiring medications for blood pressure control.
Dianabol can create a serious case of acne on the face and neck, shoulders, back and chest. This is due to the Dianabols conversion to dihydrotestosterone.
Because this product readily converts to estrogens, gynecomastia is another possibility.
Should there be a genetic predisposition to hair loss Dianabol will increase the rapidity of hair loss.
Known to improve your mood however, discontinuing of Dianabol will create a loss in strength since there will no longer be fluid retention.
In order for your body to metabolize Dianabol, large quantities of water should be consumed.  1-2 gallons of water per day is highly recommended. Should this advisory not be followed the performing of strenuous exercises and back pumps can be met with headaches.

 Stacking:

Because of the short life of Dianabol, which is only 3-5 hours, multiple doses may have to be taken. Dianabol can cause painful gastrointestinal symptoms if not taken with food. It requires 1 -3 hours to reach the blood stream.

Dianabols purpose is to jump start  mass and weight gain. It should only be used for a 4-6 week cycle under medical supervision. Dianabol only cycles are severely deterred. This is because it would require a large amount of Dianabol to replace the effects of testosterone.

Examples of Dinabol stacking cycles

The beginner cycle is as follows:

    1 Testosterone Enanthate – 500 mg. week, Dianabol (D-bol) 25 mg. daily, Arimidex – 0.5 every other day.
    2 – 6, same dosages
    7 – 12 discontinue Dianabol during week 7, every thing else remains the same.

The intermediate cycle is as follows:

    1 Sustanon 250, 750 mg. per week, Deca-Durobolin, 400 mg. wk. Dianabol, 50 mg. daily, Arimidex, 0.5 every other day.
    Remains the same until the 6th week, eliminate Dianabol at this time.
    Weeks 7 – 14 eliminate Deca-Durobolin rest of dosages remain the same.
    Weeks 15-16 continue Sustanon and Arimidex at same levels.


If you do decide to engage in a Dianabol cycle there are key factors to remember. While Dianabol is a very powerful steroid, you will automatically increase in size. In order to retain the weight you must fortify your growth with food. This and high quantities of water will help keep you healthy.

Stacking Deca Durabolin with peptides like TB-500 or GHRP-6 for healing effect

Aside of bulking, cutting or strength increasing effect, anabolic steroids are also used for healing injuries. Some of them have good anti-inflammatory effects, while all of them increase the number of red cells, pumping more blood not only to muscle tissues, but most important to ligaments and tendons. These parts are poorly fluidized; hence healing process takes longer and is more painful.

Please make the difference between corticosteroids and androgenic anabolic steroids. First group of steroids is based on cortisol, a substance that carries high healing properties, but also induce a greater catabolic effect during which a big percentage of muscle mass is eaten. Taking corticosteroids for healing injuries can be a good idea only if you don’t care about your muscle mass. Contrary, you have to properly manipulate your training or diet to keep catabolic process under control.

Taking peptides with steroids enhance muscle building process several times. Following such a stack can help to gain impressive amounts of muscle mass with even less steroids. And all this happens due to peptides. They greatly increase appetite and Human Growth Hormone level, which in result produce more ICF-1. This is that’s one hormone responsible for muscle growth.
Due to all these properties, peptides speed up recovery and carry good healing effects. Most of bodybuilders use to combine TB-500 with GHRP-6 or hGH to help body recover faster and heal injured tendons, ligaments or joints. There is no contraindication for mixing them, while dosage pretty low. 4-5 mg/week of TB-500 and 150-200 mcg three times per day of GHRP -6 is more than enough to promote healing in just few weeks of use.

Not that you are limited to these dosage, you can easily go with higher than this. The proper dosage can be set individually, based on your body reaction.

Why to mix a steroid with peptides for healing when they seem to work great alone

This is a very good question and if you take a look on steroids boards you will see that the number of those who want to know it is pretty high.

Peptides have the ability to enhance steroids properties and cause more gains. In the regard of healing effect, peptides accelerate recovery and help body to return to normal condition in short time. The alone use of peptides can cause some loss in muscle mass, due to increased cortisol level. By taking a steroid along with peptides catabolic process is reduced at minimum, these way individuals managing to keep on muscle mass they already have.

Not all steroids fit such a goal. Along with Deca Durabolin, just Equipoisecan also be used for reducing pain and inflammation. Deca Durabolin has good anti inflammatory properties and when stacked with peptides these effect  is even more prominent.

Equipoise has not the same anti inflammatory action as Deca Durabolin do, but it is highly appreciated for its ability to increase red blood cells and transport more nutrients and oxygen to damaged parts. Due to this rehab process is shorter and you have not to support big pain for such long time.

When not to mix Deca Durabolin with peptides

If you are worried with side effects like hair loss, acne, prostate growth or other than taking Deca Durabolin could be a problem. It just can worsen symptoms you already have leading to irreversible effects. Know your weak points and make sure a steroid intake is not going to cause you more damage than benefits.

If you are not sure with Deca Durabolin you can simply go with TB-500 and GHRP-6. Rehabilitation would be much faster than not using them at all, while no side effects are attached.

Long-Term and Low-Dose Oral Steroid Use as an Alternative to Traditional Steroid Cycles

However, there’s a real lack of evidence for the idea. I’ve never seen it done with success worth mentioning. On the other hand, it’s rarely tried, so I’ve only seen a handful of examples. And perhaps less-focused, less-dedicated training might have gone along with the less-focused, less-dedicated steroid use.

Pharmacologically, there are reasons why using anabolic steroids some days but not others might not give as much results as sustained use. The biological processes activated by the androgen receptor are not immediate, but take days to complete. Failing to sustain high androgen levels throughout the process might limit results. But that’s not a conclusive argument. For example, GH levels don’t have to be sustained to provide sustained biological activity.

What is conclusive is that sustaining high androgen levels does work, beyond doubt. Peaks that come and go? Not proven, and what evidence there is has it not working very well.

So if you want to experiment with this idea, you can, but inferior results are likely.

To meet your concerns while making at least as much gains per year as with traditional cycles, I’d suggest 2-week cycles. Total yearly progress is typically as good or better as with longer cycles, but body transformation is in smaller jumps.

Another reason not to rely only on orals is liver toxicity. With properly-planned steroid cycles, at most some of the steroids used will be liver toxic, because half or more of the total amount used will be non-alkylated injectables. Relying on orals only, the entire amount used is liver toxic, typically. It’s better to get most or all of the effect from injectables than to rely solely on orals.

The Truth about Low Dose Cycles

Many people write that 200mg of testosterone per week does nothing more than shut down a man's natural test production and bring him near "normal levels"--this is not quite correct (part of the statement is correct part of it is not). This incorrect statement has endured probably because someone wrote down thier idea/theory of what happens in the body, it sounded good, and other people repeated it. But, it is not correct. Yes, 200mg of a long lasting ester of testosterone will shut down natural test production, BUT the amount of 200mg of a long lasting ester of testosterone is more than twice the "normal levels" of test in the body of a healthy non-steroid using male. Therefore, 200mg of a long lasting ester of testosterone per week is far more than enough to grow on.

Using a long acting ester testosterone (test cyp and test enanth) does not mimic the normally functioning male body's circadian rhythm (daily rise and fall of testosterone). Testosterone, in a normally functioning body, does not explode up to high levels then gradually fall over a 1-2 week period as it does when injecting a testosterone such as CYP or ENAN. On the contrary, the body produces a small amount each day which is far below 200mg (It's around 10mg). That small amount is concentrated at the beginning of the day and then falls low by the end of the day. This process repeats itself every day and by the end of two weeks, a normally functioning body produces approximately 140mg of testosterone (appx. 70mg per week).

The use of long acting esters are in theory supposed to slowly release the testosterone over a two week period, but this is not quite what happens. To keep it simple, the delay of the esters actually allows large amounts of testosterone to build up--especially if you are taking 200mg every week as opposed to once every two weeks (biweekly) which is what the dose is supposed to be. (I'm simplifying here). Remember the "normally functioning" male produces only (appx.) 70mg per week (=140mg per two weeks). The dose doctors are recommended to perscribe is 200mg every 2 weeks (biweekly), but they tend to give 200mg every week.

So, it is fallacious reasoning to compare the TOTAL amount of testosterone produced in daily spurts in a normally functioning body over a 2 week period to the same amount of testosterone injected in one shot at the beginning of a week and reshot every week (before the previous week's dose is used up). The latter case (injections once per week) results in an overlap and build up of dose which causes the levels of testosterone to be HIGHER than normal. (Remember the shots should actually be 200mg every TWO weeks--not every week). These excess levels of testosterone are sufficient to build lean body mass faster than the "normally functioning" male.

In other words: addding up what the average male body produces per week then comparing that to the amount that is shot every week is like comparing apples to oranges. There is a whole diferent set of advantageous reactions happening in the body when it is given a full
2-week load (200mg) at the beginning of a week as opposed to getting naturally occuring, small, daily spurts of appx 10mg over the same period of time (2 weeks).

This is why a low dose cycle can yeild REASONABLE gains. Understand, I'm not talking mega-huge-fast gains. I'm talking noticably-faster-than-normal gains, which when coupled with a strict diet, sufficient rest and an excellent bodybuilding work ethic, can yeild large, solid gains (especially early in a person's cycle experience).

Primobolan Effects Cycles and Doses

Primobolan is one of the few steroids that can regularly be found in both oral and injectable forms; Methenolone-Enanthate being the injectable and Methenolone-Acetate the oral. A once fairly popular anabolic steroid, Primobolan is not nearly as popular as it once was; however, due to rumors surrounding Arnold Schwarzenegger implying it was his favorite, to this day there remains a strong almost cult like following. While there is no question, Primobolan is one of the safer steroids we can use in-terms of side-effects because Masteron is more readily available and far less counterfeited many in recent years have opted for that rout. However, as these two steroids are often compared in truth and function they carry very specific differing traits; more importantly, the counterfeiting factor cannot be ignored. Yes, unfortunately Primobolan is one of the more commonly counterfeited steroids on the black market, especially the tablets but in high amounts in both forms. Nevertheless, legitimate Primo as it is commonly called, while a very mild steroid can be well suited for cutting cycles but generally for most there is little benefit otherwise. However, for the female anabolic steroid user, as Primobolan is very mild in nature it can often be a fine choice as side-effects are very easy to control and often non-existent when used responsibly.

The Benefits of Primobolan:
As a very mild DHT steroid, most will not see any bulking benefits from its use as it does not possess traits apt for this purpose. You could use this steroid as part of a bulking cycle but it would necessarily require massive amounts and due to this steroid being outrageously expensive this is simply not feasible. Most will find Primobolan to be best served in a cutting cycle; while it will not promote muscle tissue growth to any great degree it is a fantastic steroid for the use of preserving existing muscle tissue. Further, as it can preserve it has also been shown to be one of the few anabolic steroids that can directly lead to fat-loss. While almost all anabolic steroids carry this fat loss trait to a degree, Primobolan appears to do so in a more direct manner.

Without question the greatest benefit to Primobolan use lies within its safe nature when taken by female anabolic steroid users. Make no mistake, this is not a girl only steroid but because so many steroids are so harsh on females, as steroids such as Primo and Anavar are generally well-tolerated by women they hold somewhat of a special place. The largest concern for most women and anabolic steroid use is virilization; however, with responsible use this is non-existent in almost all females. While it can occur, if symptoms start to show, simply discontinuing will see them fade away. This makes Primobolan very beneficial to females as they are able to enjoy a moderate anabolic affect without the nasty side-effects. It is however very important to note, if virilization effects set in there is often no turning back; don’t push the envelope.

The Side-Effects of Primobolan:
As Primobolan does not aromatize many of the common anabolic steroid associated side-effects are non-existent. Side-effects such as water retention and bloat are very rare and Gynecomastia is of little concern. Further, as the oral version is not a 17-aa steroid liver damage largely goes out the window. Without question this is one of the safest steroids on the market but make no mistake, possible side-effects do exist. Like all DHT based steroids Primobolan can cause hair-loss. There is something you need to understand about hair-loss, steroids that promote this do not make you go bald, you were going to go bald anyway but if you are predisposed to this condition DHT steroids like Primobolan will simply speed it up. Beyond hair-loss and virilization in women who abuse the steroid there is little concern when this steroid is used; however, testosterone suppression must be mentioned and discussed as there is a prevailing myth in this regard.

Primobolan & Testosterone:
For reasons that make as much sense as saying what goes up must turn purple, a common belief by many is that Primobolan does not suppress natural testosterone production. It is true, many steroids carry with them varying levels of harshness in-terms of testosterone suppression but most all suppress and Primo makes no exception. A low dose of the steroid, as low as a mere 25mg can suppress testosterone production by as much as 50% and this is assuming no more is administered beyond the one dose. This makes bridging with this steroid, which is very common not only a bad idea but simply stupid.

This makes bridging with this steroid, which is very common not only a bad idea but simply stupid.

Primobolan Cycles & Doses:
Because Primobolan is a very weak steroid most men will necessarily need to take in quite a bit to really see any effect. Many men who use Primobolan are often very disappointed simply because they didn’t use enough. Further, men who take oral Primobolan are often left even more disappointed as it takes an even larger amount of the oral version to reap the same benefits as the injectable version. Most men will find 500mg per week to be the necessary dose to truly see any positive result(s) and because of its mild nature 8 weeks of use will be the minimum with 12 weeks being for more optimal.

For our female athlete either version will create a great boost but of course injectable will prove to be far more efficient. To ensure virilization does not occur most women will need to use Primobolan in 4-6 week bursts. For example, 4 weeks of use, followed by a two week break, followed by 4 weeks of use if desired; however, if virilization begins to show, no matter which week you’re in, stop use immediately and let your body heal. Most women will find 100mg per week to be a very powerful dose that brings them all they’d ever want or need with many finding 50mg to be efficient and effective. :

Effects of Winstrol

The effects of Winstrol are more than welcomed by most performance enhancing athletes. From gains in strength to enhanced and superb conditioning the effects of Winstrol have something for just about everyone. A solid DHT derived anabolic steroid, Winstrol is one of the few anabolic steroids that can be used by both men and women, making it one of the most popular anabolic steroids of all time. Of course, this steroid is not without downsides, for if you put something in your body, no matter what it is there's always a potential risk for adverse side-effects. Available in an oral tablet as well as an injectable solution, in either case the hormone is the same, and with responsible use can benefit almost any athlete tremendously.

The Positive Effects of Winstrol

Stanozolol is a powerful Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) derived anabolic steroid most commonly known by the name given to it by its developer Sterling-Winthrop Laboratories as Winstrol. By its nature, Winny, as it is often called is mildly androgenic with a strong anabolic nature that greatly increases nitrogen retention and protein synthesis. While these are two welcomed traits, it is the hormones ability to lower SHBG that makes it special. When SHBG decreases we now have more free testosterone to pull from, and what's more is this hormone has this effect to a higher degree than just about any anabolic steroid.

What does this all mean? Stanozolol is one of the easier anabolic steroids to understand, but how do the positive effects of Winstrol translate to the athlete? Often, when many people think of Stanozolol they think of the 1988 Summer Olympics, when Canadian sprinter Ben Johnson destroyed the competition. Johnson, who won handedly over the favored Carl Lewis tested positive for Stanozolol, and was stripped of his medals, but it was through the use of this hormone by Johnson that we really saw it shine. Put simply, the effects of Winstrol largely surround enhanced strength and performance, and this can be translated into both direct physical strength and speed.

Strength and speed are not the only positive effects of Winstrol, as conditioning is paramount. The vast majority of those who supplement with anabolic steroids do so for visual effects. We're not only referring to physique athletes, but the everyday gym rat, as they make up the majority of performance enhancing athletes. The effects of Winstrol can lend to a harder and more defined physique, as well as one that is more vascular in appearance. By its nature, Stanozolol can greatly preserve lean tissue when calories are restricted, preserve strength that is often lost when dieting, and simply lead to a more pleasing physique looking back from the other side of the mirror.

The Negative Effects of Winstrol

Like all anabolic steroids, Stanozolol is not without downsides. If it's an anabolic steroid there is a potential for adverse reactions, but this does not only apply to anabolic steroids, it applies to anything we put into our body. All medications, from prescriptions to over the counter medications carry significant possible side-effects. Even the foods we eat can cause adverse reactions. Think about it, there are tons of people who cannot take Aspirin or Tylenol, and there are millions who can't drink milk or eat peanuts. Individual response is a huge factor when discussing the effects of absolutely anything.

Beyond individual response, we must also take into account responsibility, and again, we turn to Aspirin. You may indeed be one who responds in a positive fashion to Aspirin, but if you take an entire bottle should you expect to be OK? Of course not, you'll undoubtedly run into some serious problems. Further, as it pertains to negative effects, a key point often neglected is education. Knowing what the adverse effects are can be quite useful, as it allows us to not only combat them, but often to even avoid them. So what are the possible adverse effects of Winstrol, that's the obvious question and they include:

High Cholesterol. If you already suffer from high cholesterol you should avoid the Stanozolol hormone; in-fact, you should avoid most anabolic steroids. If you have a healthy cholesterol level you will want to supplement responsibly to ensure it stays this way. This means avoiding high doses and use far beyond recommended total durations. Further, following a diet that is cholesterol friendly is very important. This is something you should already be doing, but it becomes even more important when supplementing with anabolic steroids. If you're a healthy adult and you can do these things you can avoid the cholesterol related effects of Winstrol.

Liver Toxicity. Winstrol, both the oral and injectable form belong to the C17-aa class of anabolic steroids, and by this nature are toxic to the liver. This nature is necessary to the hormones survival, for without the C17-aa nature the liver would destroy the hormone before the body could use it. When we supplement with Stanozolol our liver values will increase, and they can increase quite substantially. Again, individual response and total dosing will play a large role, but our levels will go up nonetheless. To keep the liver healthy you are encouraged to avoid regular alcohol consumption and any other activity that may cause undue stress to the liver. Even avoiding over the counter medications where you can is advisable, as many over the counter medications are far more toxic to the liver than Winstrol. Further, and this is very important; if you are responsible with your doses, duration of use and live a liver healthy lifestyle, once use is discontinued your liver values will return to normal very quickly, and no permanent damage will be done.

Hair-Loss. As is common with many DHT based anabolic steroids, one of the effects of Winstrol can be hair-loss. If you are predisposed to male-pattern baldness there is a fairly good chance you may lose a little hair. It's important to keep in mind you were going to lose this hair to begin with, the use of Winstrol simply sped the process up. Conversely, if you are not predisposed to male-pattern baldness you will not lose the first hair on your head.

Acne. As is with hair-loss, acne is largely genetically driven. If you are sensitive to acne you will be the one who has the first problem. Those who are not sensitive and who are not using contaminated products should be fine. Further, if you are sensitive there are things you can do to protect yourself. Staying very clean is very important, and if this means taking an extra shower each day then so be it. Moreover, you are encouraged to change your shirt when it becomes sweaty. For example, if you work out and are not showering at the gym, even if you're going to shower as soon as you get home you're going to want to change your shirt before you go home. Staying clean and using clean products will go a long, long way.

Testosterone Suppression. When we supplement with anabolic steroids our natural testosterone production is suppressed. This applies to Winstrol just as it does any steroid. For this reason, most men will need to supplement with testosterone when they supplement with Stanozolol. The form does not matter as long as you're providing the body what it needs. As testosterone production is suppressed testicular atrophy will occur. However, once use is discontinued and all anabolic steroids have cleared your system testosterone production will begin again, and your testicles will return to their normal size.

Virilization (Females). When females supplement with anabolic steroids they run a risk of virilization. Such effects can be very damaging to a woman's femininity and include:

- Deepening of the Vocal Chords

- Body-Hair Growth

- Clitoral Enlargement

- Disrupted Menstrual Cycle

The majority of anabolic steroids will cause such problems in women, but there are a few like Winstrol that can be used without such effects. Make no mistake, Stanozolol can cause these problems, the odds of controlling them are simply low if you are responsible. If a female supplements with Stanozolol and the adverse effects of Winstrol of a virilizing nature occur she should discontinue use immediately. If you discontinue as soon as the symptoms show they will fade away and you'll be fine. If you ignore them they can set up shop permanently.

Deca Steroids

Deca steroids are one of the most popularly used anabolic steroids of all time and have been so for generations. In most cases deca steroids refer to the drug Deca-Durabolin, formally known as Nandrolone Decanoate. While this high class of anabolic steroid is often simply called “Deca” this label isn’t entirely accurate due to “Deca” or Decanoate being an attached ester, not the actual drug. There is actually a few deca steroids available; there are even drugs of a non-anabolic steroidal nature that use this ester; several of them but it is without question Nandrolone Decanoate that carries with it the most popularity among all the deca steroids.

Understanding the Decanoate Ester in Deca Steroids:
The decanoate ester belongs to a class known as a decanoic acid, a type of fatty acid which provides a very long half-life regardless of the drug it is attached to. You guessed it, when we attach this ester to an anabolic steroid its detection time is also of a very high nature; deca steroids carry with them some of the longest lasting detection times of any anabolic steroid on the market.

Deca Steroids of the Nandrolone Form:
Like testosterone, Nandrolone is found in every human being; that is correct, our bodies naturally produce this hormone. Further and as it pertains to the interest at hand, this powerful hormone has the ability to add lean muscle tissue quite unlike many other hormones; even more exciting is this hormones ability to block the muscle wasting hormone cortisol. As it pertains to supplementation of the hormone, this drug is also available with a faster/shorter attached ester known as phenylpropionate but most will find the deca steroids to be more efficient than their counterparts.

Deca Steroids & Testosterone:
Beyond Deca-Durabolin type anabolics the decanoate ester is sometimes combined to the testosterone molecule, usually as a part of Sustanon-250 most commonly. This form of testosterone can be found alone and used as a single ester but it is not highly advised nor sought after. There are many other single estered testosterones that have been proven to be far more effective and efficient. If you desire to use deca steroids of a testosterone nature you will be best served doing so as part of a testosterone mix.

Deca Steroids & Use:
Deca steroids have proven to be some of the best anabolic steroids available but as there is as with all performance enhancing drugs there is a method you need to understand to reap the highest reward. Decanoate is a very long lasting drug as discussed meaning it remains in our system for a very long time even after use is stopped. Further, we understand the importance of proper therapy after we end any anabolic steroid cycle, commonly called PCT. To reap the most successful reward we must promote recovery after our cycle and when our cycle contained any various deca steroids we must take note. The most effective means is to end use of all deca steroids approximately 4 weeks before the cycles end and to end the final four weeks with only fast acting anabolics. By doing so we have allowed time for the deca steroids to start clearing our system, brought forth the time we can start PCT to an earlier date and highly promoted recovery. This is the name of the game, not only when it comes to anabolic steroid use but the muscle and performance game as a whole; recovery. Without recovery you’re only beating your head against the wall.
