Which INJECTABLE Steroids Are Actually Worth Taking?

Summary

The video script discusses the worthiness of various injectable steroids in the context of bodybuilding and fitness, emphasizing the importance of personal context, such as age, experience, and individual responses to these compounds. It explores the use of testosterone as a foundational compound, the role of Boldenone during off-season for its anabolic effects without aromatization, and the potential for Primobolan to be a versatile option despite concerns about hair loss and availability. The video also touches on the use of Masteron as a cosmetic enhancer rather than a primary mass builder, and the need for careful consideration of side effects and long-term health implications. The speaker shares personal experiences and coaching insights, providing a comprehensive list of steroid compounds and their potential benefits or drawbacks in different settings, such as contest prep or off-season cycles.

Takeaways

• 💰 Primobolan is considered highly valuable if it's pharmaceutical grade, but its worth is diminished by its high cost and the risk of fakes.
• 💊 Testosterone is a foundational compound in steroid cycles and is worth it for those with low natural production or in a TRT context.
• 👴 For individuals prone to male pattern baldness, exogenous testosterone can accelerate hair loss, and alternatives like nandrolone might be preferable.
• 🏋️‍♂️ Boldenone (Equipoise) is a worthy compound, especially in an off-season context, and can be a suitable replacement for Primobolan for some users.
• ⚖️ Dosages for these compounds can vary widely based on individual response, body fat levels, and injection frequency.
• 🚫 Masteron (Drostenolone) is not recommended for those concerned about hair loss due to its potential to worsen male pattern baldness.
• 🏥 Blood work is crucial when using anabolic steroids to monitor side effects and adjust dosages accordingly.
• 📈 An ideal ratio of testosterone to other compounds like Primobolan or Boldenone can be one-to-one, but this needs to be tailored to the individual.
• 🛑 There is clinical evidence linking Boldenone to kidney toxicity, so users with kidney issues should be cautious.
• 🧘‍♂️ Ancillary substances can help mitigate some side effects of anabolic steroids, but they are not a substitute for proper medical supervision.
• 📉 For contest prep or cutting phases, some users prefer a base of testosterone with Boldenone due to its non-aromatizing properties and lower side effect profile.

Q & A

What is the primary factor to consider when evaluating the worth of injectable steroids?

The worthiness of a particular injectable steroid is highly contextual and depends on factors such as personal experience, age, physical demands, and individual response to the compound.

What is the recommended starting dosage for Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) for someone experiencing a decline in testosterone production?

The recommended starting dosage for TRT is around 120 to 550 milligrams per week.

What are some side effects that might make someone consider an alternative to testosterone?

Some side effects that might make someone consider an alternative to testosterone include hair loss, acne, anxiety, and unmanageable blood pressure.

Why is Primobolan considered a suitable replacement for Boldenone in certain contexts?

Primobolan can be considered a suitable replacement for Boldenone if someone cannot access Primobolan or finds it too expensive. It is also preferred by those who do not experience side effects from Boldenone.

What is the general dosage range for Boldenone that the speaker considers to be worth it?

The general dosage range for Boldenone that the speaker considers to be worth it is between 300 milligrams per week up to 1200 milligrams per week.

What is the concern regarding kidney toxicity associated with Boldenone?

There is clinical evidence and some animal studies that link Boldenone with kidney toxicity. However, the speaker has not seen any indication of kidney toxicity in individuals who have used Boldenone for years or decades.

Why might someone avoid using Masteron if they are prone to male pattern baldness?

Masteron is not particularly hair-safe and can exacerbate hair loss, especially in individuals who are already prone to male pattern baldness or androgenetic alopecia.

What is the primary role of Masteron in a steroid cycle when used in conjunction with testosterone?

Masteron is primarily considered an add-on to testosterone, complementing the testosterone by preventing or reducing the conversion of testosterone into estradiol, which can lead to a more polished and less bloated physique.

What is the advantage of using a combination of testosterone and Primobolan in a cycle?

The combination of testosterone and Primobolan can provide a good balance of anabolic effects with Primobolan acting as a reversely binding aromatase inhibitor, potentially allowing for a lower need for additional aromatase inhibitors.

What is the general advice for someone who is experiencing hair loss while using testosterone?

For individuals experiencing hair loss while using testosterone, the speaker suggests considering alternatives such as a nandrolone-only cycle, managing the situation with ancillary medications, or accepting the hair loss and adjusting personal grooming preferences.

Why might someone choose to use a lower dose of testosterone and Primobolan for a 'cruise'?

A lower dose of testosterone and Primobolan might be chosen for a 'cruise' to maintain a lean and muscular appearance without the need for an aromatase inhibitor, assuming proper blood work and individual response allow for this approach.
