Deca Durabolin

nandrolone decanoate

Deca Durabolin is a favorite to thousands of steroid users. It is a low androgenic steroid, with high anabolic properties.and extremely long acting compound, with the decanoate ester said to provide Deca Durabolin a slow release time of up to three or four weeks. It is excellent for developing size and strength. It will aromatize in high dosages, but not at the rate of testosterone’s or other high androgenic compounds. Deca Durabolin can be used for cutting or for bulking. Athletes have stacked it with virtually every drug and come out with positive results. It is a good base drug on any cycle. Deca can be used by almost all athletes and give positive results while presenting very few side effects.

Deca is not known as a very "fast" builder. The muscle building effect of Deca is quite noticeable, but not dramatic. The slow onset and mild properties of Deca therefore make it more suited for cycles with a longer duration. In general one can expect to gain muscle weight at about half the rate of that with an equal amount of testosterone. A cycle lasting eight to twelve weeks seems to make the most sense, expecting to elicit a slow, even gain of quality mass. Although active in the body for much longer, Deca Durabolin is usually injected once per week. The dosage of Deca for men is usually in the range of 200-600mg. If looking to be specific, it is believed that Deca will exhibit its optimal effect (best gain/side effect ratio) at around 2mg per pound of bodyweight/weekly. Deca is also a popular steroid among female bodybuilders but only in very low dosages; 50 mg per week.

Deca Durabolin has been established as a great soother of sore joints and tendons. Athletes report that sore shoulders, knees, and/or elbows are somehow without pain on the Deca Durabolin cycle. This may be substantiated by proving it reduces the amount of cortisol getting into muscle tissue during the cycle. Deca also dramatically improves nitrogen retention and recuperation time between workouts. Deca also dramatically improves nitrogen retention and recuperation time between workouts. Deca Durabolin has shown up positive on more steroid tests than any other steroid. This is due to the fact that so many athletes use it, and that it stays in the system at a detectable level for up to a year.

Deca Durabolin can be active from 10-14 days after injection, but weekly injections of 300-600 mgs are common for men.

Deca Durabolin, or, more precisely nandrolone decanoate, is commonly counterfieted. The introduction into the Mexican marketplace for veterinary steroids (i.e. Noradren200) is making "Deca" more accessible for U.S. bodybuilders.

Of primary interest is the fact that Deca Durabolin will not break down to a more potent metabolite in androgen target tissuess. Which problem with testosterone. Although Deca Durabolin does undergo reduction via the same (5-alpha reductase) enzyme that produces DHT from testosterone, the result in this case is dihydronandrolone. This metabolite is weaker than the parent nandroloness, and is far less likely to cause unwanted androgenic side effects. Strong occurrences of oily skin, acne, body/facial hair growth and hair loss occur very rarely. It is however possible for androgenic activity to become apparent with this as any steroid, but with Deca Durabolin higher than normal doses are usually responsible.

Deca Durabolin also show an extremely lower tendency for estrogen conversion. For comparison, the rate has been estimated to be only about 20% of that seen with testosterones. This is because while the liver can convert nandrolone in Deca Durabolin to estradiol, in other more active sites of steroid aromatization such as adipose tissue nandrolone in Deca Durabolin is far less open to this process. Consequently estrogen related side effects are a much lower concern with Deca Durabolin. An antiestrogen is likewise rarely needed with Deca, gynecomastia only a worry among sensitive individuals. At the same time water retention is not a usual concern. This effect can occur however, but is most often related to higher dosages. The addition of Proviron and/or Nolvadex should prove sufficient enough to significantly reduce any occurrence. Clearly Deca Durabolin is a very safe choice among steroids. Actually, many consider Deca Durabolin to be the best overall steroid for a man to use when weighing the side effects and results. It should also be noted that in HIV studies, Deca Duraboin has been shown not only to be effective at safely bringing up the lean body weight of patient, but also to be beneficial to the immune system.
