FAQ!!!
Posted: Sun Jul 12, 2020 3:25 am
So I figured I’d start this up to post some questions and answer to things that may get asked a lot on most forums like this. Obv there’s a bunch that are asked so please add to my list with not only the question but the answer please! I’ll get us started with a few:
What are the safest steroids for men?
Testosterone, whatever the form, tends to be the safest steroid for men. When the dose remains within the moderately supratherapeutic range, alterations in cardiovascular risks factors are noticed, but not extreme. Some of this has to do with the beneficial cardiovascular effects of estrogen in men.
What are the safest steroids for women?
Women are generally most concerned with the virilizing (masculinizing) effects of anabolic/androgenic steroids. The least virilizing agents are those with the highest relative anabolic to androgenic effect, such as nandrolone, oxandrolone, turinabol, and methenolone. Care must always be taken, however, as all AAS are based on male sex steroids, and as such can cause masculinizing effects in women.
Can I just do a oral only cycle?
You can. Should you? Probably not. Oral steroids are still going to suppress your natural Test pretty hard. You may find you don't feel the best or symptoms of low testosterone. if you choose to do a oral only cycle, you should still look into getting a SERM (like Nolvadex/Clomid or the sorts) for a proper PCT, as well. You should consider doing a real cycle, complete with Testosterone, as you'll find better results, as well as feeling better overall too.
My Gear Crashed…How Do I Fix It?
Answer: Gear can crash due to storing the product in colder than recommended temperatures (or in shipment)…or because the ratio of AAS to oil is out of balance (this can be either a manufacturer error or a personal error if home brewing). This does not damage the steroid. In order to correct the problem, simply run the vial under warm water until the products reverts back to its normal state. Clean with alcohol swab after drying off.
I got sick while on cycle. What do?
Assuming it's not just "Test Flu", you have two choices. Cruise on a low dose or PCT. Of course a lot of factors play in with if you got sick near the beginning, in the middle, or near the end. In the beginning most will opt to cruise instead of "PCT-ing" so early. In the middle most will opt to cruise instead of "PCT-ing" and cutting the cycle so short. Near the end can be tricky. Most still choose to cruise and potentially extend the cycle longer than originally intended, but if it's really close to the end some may choose just to go ahead and PCT. Obviously this all depends on the severity of your illness. Also if it's something that you'll get over within a week, most will just continue their dosages as normal.
I'm getting unbearable back / shin / calf / etc. pumps. What can I do?
The first line of action should be:
Taurine (3-10g pre-workout, you may also add 3-5g AM/PM depending on when you workout)
Magnesium (200-500mg pre-workout, you may also add 200-500mg AM/PM depending on when you workout)
Potassium (200-300mg pre-workout, you may also add 200-500mg AM/PM depending on when you workout)
Upping your water intake (1-2 gallons ED)
If none of this helps, anecdotally, Cialis (10-15mg ED) has been known to help.
Is Aspirating Required?
Many AAS users do not aspirate when injecting. It is considered a bit of an out-dated methodology, but it never hurts to do it.
According to the CDC:
Aspiration - Aspiration is the process of pulling back on the plunger of the syringe prior to injection to ensure that the medication is not injected into a blood vessel. Although this practice is advocated by some experts, the procedure is not required because no large blood vessels exist at the recommended injection sites."
I know there’s a ton more we can post so let’s get them going guys! Let’s help everyone out here.
