Anadrol 50
Anadrol 50 is a very powerful and very popular oral anabolic steroid developed in the 1960’s by Syntex Pharmaceuticals. Comprised of the steroidal hormone Oxymetholone and commonly referred to as Anadrol 50, Anadrol 50 was developed to treat muscle wasting diseases such as anemia and as such holding the ability to rapidly increase lean muscle tissue. Fortunately for Syntex Pharmaceuticals the design was a success and as Anadrol 50 so rapidly increases lean tissue it has become a favorite of many performance enhancers; in-fact, performance enhancers supplement with Anadrol 50 more than anyone else. Of course there is a downside; some find it very difficult to eat when supplementing with this steroid as it can suppress appetite in many individuals and without enough food you will not grow. Even so, with proper diet there are very few anabolic steroids as powerful in such a fast acting nature as Anadrol 50.
What is Anadrol 50?
Anadrol 50 belongs to the c17-aa family of anabolic steroids and is further a Dihydrotestosterone derivative. As a c17-aa anabolic steroid the Oxymetholone hormone is very toxic to the liver; however, it is the c17-aa nature that allows the steroid to work in the first place; without it there would be no use or benefit. While a toxic nature is bad news there is some pretty good news to go along with it. You will not have to supplement with Anadrol 50 for an extended period of time to see a reward. Further, the liver will return to its normal state rapidly once use is discontinued assuming abuse of the steroid is not in play and assuming no other stressful activities are being placed on the liver.
By its nature Anadrol 50 carries a very short half-life of approximately 8.5 hours. As a short half-life based anabolic steroid daily administration of the steroid is necessary with twice daily being imperative in some cases. As is with most short half-life steroids the benefits of this steroid will be noticed rapidly, almost in an overnight fashion. Due to this fast acting nature this makes Anadrol 50 a favorite for many performance enhancers, especially when kicking a new cycle off.
The Benefits of Anadrol 50:
The primary benefit to Anadrol 50 use is mass; pure and simple the primary role of this steroid is building mass and lots of it. For the purpose of bulking and in quick order Anadrol 50 is one of the best steroids on earth to meet this purpose. While bulking is primary increases in strength are also to be expected and dramatically so. Those who supplement with this steroid can easily pack on 20lbs-30lbs in as little as 4 weeks and sometimes even more if enough food goes along with it.
While increasing size and strength are the primary roles, with size being the most primary of all the Oxymetholone hormone has a place in cutting cycles as well. It is true, Anadrol 50 can cause you to hold a bit of water but this is easily controlled by diet and through the use of aromatase inhibitors. For the majority of performance enhancers this will not be the best cutting steroid to use and for a cutting cycle that includes Anadrol 50 we’re usually referring to competitive bodybuilders. Through proper use and understanding how to control water a competitor can supplement with this steroid the last few weeks before a show and reap a high reward. By supplementing with Anadrol 50 before a show a competitor is able to maximize his carb loading and present a much fuller look. While conditioning is ultimately the name of the bodybuilding game, if conditioning is down pat then an extra level of fullness may be worth looking into. However, if you have issues with water weight you are encouraged to avoid using this steroid for this purpose.
If these benefits were not enough there is another we must mention that should have you salivating at the mouth. Anadrol 50 in simple terms has the ability to make the other steroids you’re using more valuable; especially that of testosterone. By its very nature the Oxymetholone hormone carries low androgen binding abilities thereby allowing other anabolic hormones to fill this role and creating a strong synergetic effect. This gives the cycle more “umph” if you will and as you would never use Anadrol 50 alone or at least you shouldn’t this is more or less a bonus effect.
The Bottom Line:
For fast gains and tremendous gains Anadrol 50 has something for everyone. However, this is not a steroid to be taken lightly as there is a potential for adverse effects. Even so, with responsible use most all healthy adult males will be fine; in-fact they’ll be more than fine, they’ll be better athletes, better bodybuilders or simply possess better physiques. Before you supplement with this very powerful anabolic steroid you are strongly encouraged to educate yourself on all the ins and outs. Learn how to properly supplement, ensure you are healthy enough for use and make sure you are aware of the laws regarding anabolic steroids as they apply to where you live.
