Dave, I have a question for you regarding an upcoming cycle. I’m 22 years old, six feet tall and 200 pounds. I am strong in all lifts and I want to concentrate on eliminating the little bit of surface body fat that remains on my abs. I have 25 vials of Sustanon, 40 vials of Winstrol, as well as clenbuterol and cytomel. I was hoping you could tell me what my cycle should look like. How big a role will cardio play? I’ve heard that too much will be detrimental to your training and as a result will burn muscle.As many of you have heard me say before, all good cycles start off with a base of 1,000 milligrams of testosterone per week (that’s four vials of Sustanon-250 per week). I would suggest adding the extremely anabolic drug Winstrol depot (1 vial, 50mg) every other day to the 1,000 milligrams of testosterone. Once we have established the proper combination of anabolic steroids in your “stack,” we can concentrate on configuring the ideal fat-burning regimen for you to follow. Start off by taking two clenbuterol per day (one pill in the morning and one pill prior to training). Every two weeks increase your dosage of clenbuterol by one pill daily, until no more than five pills per day is reached. Next, take one pill (25 micrograms) of Cytomel per day (taken all at once, upon waking). Increase by half a pill (12.5mcg) per day every two weeks until no more than three pills (75mcg) per day are taken. As far as cardiovascular exercise is concerned, this is a very personalized activity since not everyone requires the same amount of aerobic activity per day in order to burn body fat. I suggest starting off with 30 minutes per day (five or six times per week) and then increasing the time spent, as necessary, to keep the fat-loss process moving along.
I have taken 10 IUs of insulin per day for 16 weeks. Will taking insulin
for that long cause the beta cells of the pancreas to stop producing insulin
and actually make a person diabetic? (I heard this happened to Paul
Dillett). I have always heard and read that you should never take insulin longer than six to eight weeks (with six to eight weeks off between cycles).
No, in fact, taking insulin once per day (in conjunction with growth hormone) is actually beneficial because it takes the strain (to have to produce extra insulin) off the pancreatic beta cells. The pancreas pulses insulin all day long. Therefore, even if you were to take four shots of insulin per day, you would not be able to shut down your pancreas gland. In fact, not taking insulin while currently injecting GH (and eating a lot of calories) can put a strain on the pancreas, since it now needs to synthesize more insulin than is normally required. By the way, don’t believe the rumor-mongering message boards; Paul Dillet is not diabetic! Dave, does Deca Durabolin and/or EQ actually heal tendons and ligaments? Thanks for your time and knowledge.Deca Durabolin (a fat-soluble, anabolic, steroidal hormone) does not heal tendons and ligaments (both connective tissues); however, it does indeed reduce the inflammatory process in these tissues, thus making severe, chronic, tendinitis seem much more tolerable and much more operational. On the other hand, growth hormone (a protein hormone produced by the anterior pituitary gland) has definitive reparative effects on connective tissues in the body (specifically, ligaments, tendons and cartilaginous surfaces). Equipoise (EQ), another anabolic steroid, has no effect whatsoever on connective tissues in the body. How can I get access to the vast array of articles you have written for MD?Many readers of my MD articles have written to me asking how they can get hold of past MD columns I have written (without having to beg, plead and steal from all their friends for their carefully guarded copies). I have made the process of obtaining all my written articles and columns rather easy (and cheap) all at the same time. If you go to my website, www.DavePalumbo.com and join the members section for only $14.99, you will get unlimited access to all my previous writings and, as a bonus, you will gain access to a bevy of interesting digital pictures I have taken at all the guest posings, seminars and major competitions I have attended over the course of the last few years. For you inquisitive bodybuilders who are trying to educate yourself in the proper and responsible use of performance-enhancing substances, you will find this to be an invaluable wealth of information. Which anabolic steroids cause the most aggression and rage? Testosterone? Anadrol? When asked which anabolic steroids are the most androgenic (thus causing the most aggression), most bodybuilders (except those that regularly read my column) answer, “Testosterone, Anadrol or Halotestin.” The truth of the matter is that trenbolone acetate is the most androgenic steroid currently available on the “market.” Trenbolone is four times more androgenic than even testosterone (yet it does not aromatize into estrogen); therefore, 75 milligrams of trenbolone remains as 75 milligrams of trenbolone. Trust me when I tell you that trenbolone, by far, causes the most aggressive side effects known to bodybuilders. Most users report a feeling of constant “anger,” “rage” and “aggression” that just does not subside. What’s the moral of the story, you may ask? Well, it’s great to enjoy the cosmetic benefits and “fuel-injected” training enhancements granted to us by high androgen drugs like trenbolone, as long as we don’t wind up getting arrested for trying to pull the driver (of the car in front of us) out of his vehicle, through the partially closed moon-roof.
I am 6-foot-3 at 252 pounds and very lean. I am on my third week of taking Anadrol and Testosterone cypionate. I’m taking roughly 1,000 milligrams a week of test. I wanted to keep gaining weight, but I have reached a standstill. I was going to take some Deca or insulin; however, I’m not sure what to take. I am not experienced with insulin and have never taken it. Any advice would be appreciated.
Not many bodybuilders are capable of taking Anadrol-50 (oxymetholone) to gain weight in their off-season for one simple reason— the toxicity of Anadrol-50 makes it virtually impossible to eat enough protein on a daily basis to gain solid, lean muscle weight. Anadrol-50 completely kills your appetite and your desire to consume calories. Getting a protein shake down is a monumental task for some users. The weight gain that does occur in most users is “water retention” due to Anadrol-50’s extremely high conversion rate to estrogen. Its appetite-diminishing effect makes it an appealing pre-contest drug for some users who find that they can keep their strength elevated while keeping their appetites depressed. My advice to you is to remove the Anadrol-50 from your current cycle and replace it with 400 milligrams a week of Deca Durabolin.
I would not recommend adding insulin into your current program for the sheer fact that insulin is probably not necessary (since you are not currently injecting exogenous growth hormone). In your case, if you were to start taking insulin, the only noticeable effect you would garnish would be to increase your body fat levels (and most bodybuilders would not consider that to be beneficial).
