Dianabol/Dbol

We have many anabolic androgenic steroids from which to choose and while the list of both injectable and oral forms is extensive some are not only more popular than others but far more potent and effective. Dianabol/Dbol falls into this category, not only as one of the most powerful and effective but one of the most popular as well. While this is one of the most basic and simple steroids available it is in its simplicity that brings about its high level of power. If you’re already experienced with anabolic steroids you understand a simple truth; the basics are impossible to beat. True, there are some exotic blends and compounds but most will find the basics to be all they ever need. Look at it like training, while there are a host of exercises we can perform the foundation of our training success is and will always be built around the basic lifts; simple presses and squats and things of that nature will never be replaced by any “multi-functional” lift. Dianabol/Dbol can be viewed in the same manner as the basic weight training exercises. Where lifts such as bench press, squats, dead lifts and simple barbell curls are some of the most basic and important lifts, steroids such as Dianabol/Dbol and Testosterone find themselves in this same light.

Understanding Dianabol/Dbol:

Methandrostenolone, commonly known as Dianabol/Dbol was first developed by U.S. Olympic Team physician John Zeigler in response to the 1950’s dominating Soviet teams. While this steroid comes in both injectable and oral forms the oral form is far more popular and generally the only Dianabol/Dbol most will ever use or need. A 17aa steroid in its oral form, Dianabol/Dbol does not carry with it what we would call strong aromatase effects when compared to such steroids as Testosterone, however, it does aromatize.

Benefits of Dianabol/Dbol:

One of the most potent and powerful steroids on the market, Dianabol/Dbol can rapidly increase both size and strength. Although it is commonly believed its oral cousin Anadrol is far more potent, milligram for milligram Dianabol/Dbol blows it out of the water. Massive gains can be expected in a very short time as this steroid will enter the blood stream at a very fast rate. As you can probably already see the extreme power of this steroid makes it an excellent bulking steroid and this is its primary function. However, many athletes will use this steroid as part of a cutting cycle in order to maintain a desired weight while simultaneously losing body fat. As it can be used effectively as part of a cutting cycle most will only use it as a bulker; if you desire to use Dianabol/Dbol as a cutting agent you need to have some experience with the steroid in order to know how it will affect your body. Excess water retention can be a problem for some users of this steroid and if you’re trying to cut and are sensitive to this affect it can be a problem.

The Side-Effects of Dianabol/Dbol:

As all steroids do Dianabol/Dbol does carry with it possible negative side-effects. As mentioned this steroid can cause water retention and uncomfortably so. However, for many users they commonly mistake excess water weight as a result of Dianabol/Dbol use when in-fact, more times than not it is due to excess carbohydrate consumption beyond what is actually needed. Even so, some individuals will find themselves more sensitive and excess water retention may become a problem. As water weight can be uncomfortable, when it comes to our overall health the possibility of increased blood pressure will be our biggest concern surrounding Dianabol/Dbol use and you will need to keep your eye on it. If you are already sensitive to high blood pressure you are highly advised to stay away from this steroid and all steroids if you already suffer from the condition.

When compared to many anabolic steroids this one will prove to be one of the most well-tolerated in healthy adult males, however, as a 17aa steroid it will increase liver enzymes due to the toxic effect it can have on the liver. For this reason you will want to keep your doses and duration of use at responsible levels. Those who abuse this steroid may in-fact find serious liver damage to be a problem; however, it is important to note that the liver toxicity of this steroid is commonly exaggerated. While it can have this negative effect, most all orally administered medications can have the same effect; common and regular use of over the counter medications you use for a headache can be far more toxic than any Dianabol/Dbol tablet.

Planning Dianabol/Dbol Cycles:

This steroid can be used alone with nothing else; however it is not highly advised. Like most steroids Dianabol/Dbol will suppress your natural testosterone production; although not to the degree of many other steroids it will still drop levels. For this reason we highly recommend you always use your Dianabol/Dbol with some form of exogenous testosterone if for no other reason than maintaining proper bodily function.

Most people will find the best time to use this steroid is at the front end of a bulking cycle; generally the first 4-6 weeks of a cycle. Due to its fast acting nature this can be an excellent kick start to any cycle as gains and benefits will be seen very quickly. You will find phenomenal results to exist from a mere 30mg per day with 50mg per day being the most powerful yet still generally safe.

The Bottom Line:

For over half a century Dianabol/Dbol has remained one of the most sought after anabolic steroids on the market. With hundreds of various steroids hitting the shelves since the birth of Dianabol/Dbol, it has remained atop the list of most desired for very simple reasons; it’s generally cheap and it works better than the majority of steroids. While we would not call Dianabol/Dbol the most powerful steroid of all time or even the absolute best, it definitely holds itself high up on that very list.
