TestoBolin by
Alpha-Pharma is an injectable steroid, its active substance is Testosterone
Enanthate.
Testosterone Enanthate is probably the most
commonly used form of testosterone by both athletes and bodybuilders alike.
Testosterone Enanthate is an oil based injectable
steroid, which is designed to slowly release testosterone from the injection
site. This slow release delivery leads to an elevation in testosterone levels
lasting for approximately two weeks (it may even take as long as three weeks
for the drug levels to fully diminish). Due to its relatively long activity
level, Testosterone Enanthate is favored by the medical profession and is
primarily used to treat cases of hypogonadism and similar disorders where low
androgen levels are at fault. As with all testosterone products it has strong
anabolic and androgenic activity. Gains in strength and muscle mass are
notable, along with an increase in libido. It has also been noted that a relief
in tendon pain and an increase in stamina are direct effects of Testosterone
Enanthate administration. This is probably due to increased water
retention coupled with an increase in red blood cells – leading to a greater
oxygen uptake in the blood.
Testosterone is a highly anabolic and androgenic
hormone, it has an anabolic (muscle building) as well as anabolic rating of 100
each, respectively. Testosterone Enanthate exerts the majority of its
effects by promoting increased nitrogen retention in the muscle. Testosterone
Enanthate is also known to increases levels of the growth factor IGF-1 in
both the muscle tissue as well as the liver. This steroid also increases the
activity of satellite cells, which are cells that play an active role in
repairing exercise-damaged muscle. Testosterone Enanthate exerts these effects
primarily by genomic mechanisms, meaning that it binds to the androgen receptor
(AR) thus initiating gene transcription. This stimulation of the AR promotes
various of the AR dependant mechanisms for both muscle gain and fat loss, as
well as reducing catabolic glucocorticoid hormones, and increasing red blood
cell production.
Weekly totals of 250-1000mg weekly are frequently
used, and sometimes more for the highly advanced athlete. Due to the relatively
long half life of Testosterone Enanthate (4-5 days), injections are usually
administered twice per week. This will allow stable blood levels to be
maintained. When the level of steroid tapers down, a new injection is made,
keeping everything fairly level. This is unlike Sustanon, which requires more
frequent injections for the same effect. For a first cycle, 500 mg alone of
Testosterone Enanthate, shot two times weekly (Monday and Thursday for
example), for 10 weeks along with standard post cycle therapy would be very
sufficient for good gains.
As the best mass builder available, Testosterone
Enanthate stacks well virtually everything and can also be used alone with high
levels of success. Due to the longer half life of TestoBolin amp. (Test
Enanthate), a dose of 500 mg per week can be used for the first time user for a
period of 10 weeks with very good results. Stacking oral steroids on a first
cycle is generally considered uneccessary, because it is impossible to gauge
your body's responsiveness to the individual steroids being used and determine
which ones cause which side effects. For the more advanced athlete, doses of
500 - 1000 mg of Testosterone Enanthate are also excellent for creating
clear results within a 10 week period. More advanced athletes will often stack
Testosterone Enanthate with Dianabol, Deca Durabolin, Primobolan or Equipose to
create a powerful mass building stack.
All testosterones aromatize, and enanthate is no
exception. The steroid user should be familiar with anti-estrogen compounds
such as Nolvadex and Clomid and keep them on hand during cycle in case symptoms
of gyno arise. Increases in water weight and fat weight should be expected, and
the possibilities of gyno are always out there when using Testosterone
Enanthate.
Standard post cycle therapy consisting of either
Nolvadex or Clomid should take place after the cycle is over.
Side effects such as water retention usually occur
when using Testosterone Enanthate. Gyno, increased rate of hair growth, back
acne, increased blood pressure, and aggressiveness, both in the gym and out,
are possible when using this steroid. The liver is accustomed to processing
testosterone, so liver toxicity is normally not a concern except at extremely
high doses.
