Solo Steroid Cycle to Build Muscles

The courses listed below are generally assumed to be the most preferred for amateur athletes because of their high level of efficiency, safety and ease-of-use.

These steroid cycles are well-suited for:

Slim-built men aged 25 years or over who want to gain lean muscle and have no contraindications to anabolic steroids.

To achieve maximum result each cycle should also include:

Lean-muscle building diet plan - keep in mind that during one cycle you need to gain around 10 kg (2-3 kg would be lost later), so be sure to step on weight scales every three days, and control mass gain with the help of a diet plan.

If the mass gains are not fast enough, you need to increase calories intake and vice versa, otherwise you are just wasting time. The total amount of protein in the diet plan should be at least 2 g / kg body mass.

Course №1: Turinabol

• High efficiency, the pill form is easy to use.
• High level of safety for the liver and kidneys due to moderate dosages.
• No risk of gynecomasty, fluid retention and androgenic side effects.
• Slightly suppressive to natural testosterone production.
• Note that there is always a risk of buying fake steroids.

• Turinabol (3 intakes: 20-10-10 mg, preferably on an empty stomach) – is generally recognized as the best choice for amateur athletes who want to build lean muscle. It is distinguished by its high safety and low toxicity, does not aromatize into estrogen and slightly suppresses the hypothalamus-pituitary-testis axis. It should be noted that there is always a risk of buying fake Turinabol.
• Tamoxifen – is a post-cycle therapy aimed to restore the secretion of endogenous testosterone. The therapy starts in 2-3 days after taking the last Turinabol pill.
• Hepatoprotectors – are optional, for liver reduction.

Course №2:  Methandrostenolone

• Methandrostenolone - classical highly effective steroid for muscle mass gain.
• Aromatase inhibitors (Anastrozole) - should be used in low doses in order to save the level of estrogen within the normal range. The vast majority of specialists would not recommend to use Aromatase inhibitors in this cycle, because the risk of gynecomasty is low (about 5-10%), whereas the over-suppression of estrogen may cause some unwanted side effects. The estradiol test on Day 10of the cycle is the best option in this case. If the level of estradiol is elevated, start taking 0.5 mg of Anastrozole every other day, and do the control test after another 10 days
• Tamoxifen – is a typical post-cycle therapy. The therapy starts in 2-3 days after taking the last Methandrostenolone
• Hepatoprotectors

Course №3:  Testosterone Enanthate

• Testosterone enanthate can be replaced by Cypionate or Sustanon (Omnadren). It is possible to prolong the cycle up to 10 weeks, in this case the post-cycle therapy is provided in the same way in 2-3 weeks (3-4 weeks after Sustanon or Omnadren because their half-life period is longer).
• Aromatase inhibitors. While testosterone is used, the risk of gynecomasty is high, so the use of aromatase inhibitors is highly desirable. In addition, these drugs will increase the concentration of testosterone and remove fluid retention. Ideally, the dosage is adjusted with the estradiol test (do the first test in 3 weeks).
• Chorionic gonadotropin - is injected in the second half of the cycle to restore the testicular function. Gonadotropin has many controversial protocols of injection. However, recent studies have shown that there is a clear need to use Gonadotropin during the long cycles (more than 6 weeks). Gonadotropin allows to do the post-cycle recovery much faster. The recommendations are based on the experience of Western andrology experts.
• Tamoxifen – is a post-cycle therapy. The therapy starts in 2-3 days after taking the last pill.

SHORT CYCLE №4:  TESTOSTERONE ENANTHATE

The use of long testosterone esters in short cycles is highly criticized because they are considered to work only in the long-term cycles (more than 8 weeks). The clinical observations show the opposite.

Firstly, the maximum concentration of the drug has been observed on Day 3 after the injection. Then it gradually increased up to Week 3-4. Secondly, the research made by S. Rogerson and RP. Weatherby in 2007 showed that the significant muscle mass gaining is observed at Week 3 of testosterone enanthate injections.

This course allows you to recover quickly without Gonadotropin. Short cycles are often recommended to men aged 40 years or over. However, many athletes believe that prolonging the course up to 8-10 weeks would lead to more decent results.

Short cycles of Testosterone Propionate are offered frequently, but in fact it doesn’t make any difference. Enanthate starts its work later and stops only in 2 weeks after the last injection. Sometimes it is reasonable to use Propionate in the beginning and in the end of the cycle to level the concentration curve, but many athletes believe that it makes the cycle longer and gives no improvements. The injections of Propionate are extremely painful and have inconvenient dosing scheme.

Course №5: Primobolan

• Does not aromatize into estrogens.
• Non-toxic to the liver and kidneys.
• Androgenic side effects (baldness, prostatic hypertrophy, acne, etc.) are less common. Despite the fact that Primobolan is a derivative of Dihydrotestosterone, they have few qualities in common.
• Slightly suppresses the hypothalamus-pituitary-testis axis.
• The muscle mass gain is medium.

Overall, Primobolan is widely known as one of the softest anabolic steroids for gaining lean muscle and getting a lean physique. The 8-week cycle of Primobolan-Depot (Metenolonaenantat) with one 400mg/week injection considered to be the safest one. Some professional athletes believe that it is reasonable to use Primobolan only in mixed cycles.

The post-cycle therapy aimed to restore the testosterone secretion with Tamoxifen should be provided in 3 weeks. Moreover, you can take cortisol blockers, D-aspartic acid and other testosterone boosters for post-cycle recovery. Many athletes recommend the cycle prolongation up to 10-12 weeks, but in this case it is required to take 250ME of Gonadotropin twice a week from Week 4-5 of the cycle before the beginning of the post-cycle therapy.
