drug of the three. Like Clomid, Cyclofenil can act as an anti-estrogen by blocking estrogen receptors and blocking the action of estrogen. This is especially useful during the end of a steroid cycle when natural testosterone levels are low and estrogen levels are high. It should also be noted that some athletes are experimenting with Cyclophenyl, not only as a reductant after the end of the steroid course, but also as an independent drug due to its anabolic properties. However, a person familiar with anabolics will be disappointed with the results that Cyclophenyl gives, this is not a very strong drug and cannot be compared with more common anabolics. In the States, the Mexican variant of Cyclophenyl, Fertodur, is the most common. The drug is often counterfeited.

Cytadren (Cytadren)
Cytadren is an American brand name for aminoglutethimide, a very interesting nonsteroidal drug. It is now the most popular drug among athletes who compete in doping tests, as it has not yet been officially banned. Cytadren inhibits the body's production of androgens, estrogens and cortisone. In medicine, this drug is used to treat Cushing's syndrome, a condition in which the body produces an excess of cortisone. For an athlete with a normal blood composition, a small lack of cortisone is always a joy. While androgens command muscle cells to increase protein synthesis, cortisone acts in the exact opposite direction and commands the breakdown of amino acids. Because Cytadren also inhibits androgen production, it is always used in conjunction with some form of testosterone. Together they shift the ratio of anabolic and catabolic hormones in favor of the former.

Cytadren also effectively inhibits estrogen production and the conversion of androgens to estrogens. There is research going on on how best to use Cytadren, but for some reason the consensus is that the two-by-two schedule is the best way to go. One thing is certain - if a healthy person uses Cytadren as an anti-catabolic, it is not worth taking it daily. After a short period of constant use, the body reacts to the lower levels of cortisone and in response begins to produce increased amounts of another hormone, ACTH (ACT). An increase in ACTH levels in the body causes it to restore the production of cortisone, which makes the use of Cytadren useless.

In the medical use of Cytadren, a moderate amount of hydrocortisone is used in parallel to avoid this reaction. However, this practice is not suitable for athletes. Thus, the "two by two" regime was established, as an attempt to avoid or slow down this reaction of the body. In terms of daily dose, athletes experiment with different amounts, from half a tablet to three tablets (250 mg) per day, the most common amount is 1-2 tablets. Cytadren has its own side effects and there are quite a few of them. Among them: fatigue, dizziness, sleep disturbances, apathy, depression, nausea/vomiting, indigestion, thyroid disorders and liver damage. Athletes also note that a decrease in cortisone causes joint pain and a predisposition to injury. Except того, Цитадрен довольно дорог, около $2 за таблетку, это сильно ограничивает его распространение.

Cytomel (Cytomel, liothyronine sodium)
This drug is not a steroid, but it is very popular among athletes. It is a synthesized thyroid hormone (type T-3). It is mainly used by people with a lack of thyroid hormone. Such people experience many problems, including fatigue, obesity, etc. The drug is usually available in tablets of 25 micrograms, 100 tablets per jar. Various concentration options are possible, from 5 to 100 mcg per tablet. In general, there are two synthetic thyroid hormones - this one and Synthroid (T-4 type). Cytomel is stronger of the two, 4-5 times stronger than Synthroid.

The drug works by enhancing the synthesis of protein, carbohydrates, fats, and RNA in the body, thereby increasing the overall metabolic rate and, accordingly, the rate of absorption of nutrients. Athletes appreciate this drug for many reasons. Due to the general increase in metabolism, the drug provides excellent fat burning. When taking Cytomel, you can even afford to be sloppy in your pre-competition diet, as the drug continues to burn fat despite excess calories. The drug leaves behind such popular fat burners as Ripped Fuel, E / C / A (a mixture of ephedrine / caffeine / aspirin) and Thermodrine. При приеме вместе с Clenbutenolом, это на сегодняшний день лучшая комбинация для сжигания жира (за возможным исключением DNP, см.). The drug also makes the use of steroids more effective by accelerating protein synthesis.

Unfortunately, most athletes do not know how to use the drug, and cause irreparable damage to the body. If the drug is taken for too long or in excessive doses, the body becomes hypothyroid, and the athlete, in the worst case, is forced to use the drug for the rest of his days. Most athletes consider one to two tablets (25 micrograms) per day to be a safe dose. This amount should be taken for about a month to avoid problems. The drug is popular among female athletes. Women naturally have a lower metabolism and need to follow a very low calorie diet (500 calories a day) for several weeks to get "dry". При приеме 25 мкг препарата женщина может есть как минимум в два раза больше перед competitions. Это, конечно, более здоровая практика, чем голодный паек, на котором сидит большинство женщин перед competitions. Depending on the characteristics of the body, when taking the drug, hyperthyroidism may develop, the symptoms of this condition are: headaches, irritability, nervousness, insomnia, sweating and, in women, menstrual irregularities. If this happens, the drug should be stopped because the body has accumulated more thyroid hormone than needed. All this information is just input data on the drug, only a qualified specialist can give more detailed information. This drug is not for everyone, in some cases it can be more dangerous than most steroids.

Most people need to be careful when taking the drug and start with low doses, about 25 micrograms per day, and increase the dose by one tablet (25 micrograms) every 5-6 days. Do not exceed the dosage of the drug above 100 mcg per day. If several tablets are taken per day, the entire amount should be divided equally over the whole day (for example, 100 mcg should be divided into 4 servings of 25 mcg and taken at regular intervals throughout the day). You also need to ensure that when you exit the cycle, the amount of the drug taken decreases, this is necessary in order for the thyroid gland to function normally. You can not stretch the cycle for more than 5 weeks. After the end of the cycle, the second one can be started no earlier than 8 weeks later, this will allow the thyroid gland to restore its functions.

Esiclene (Esiclene, Formebolone)
Release form - ampoules of 2 cubic cm, 6 pcs per pack. This is an Italian (LPB labs) injectable, water-based steroid that causes inflammation in the muscle. Inflammation occurs in a small area around the injection site and causes a temporary increase in muscle volume. The drug works best when used on small muscle groups, such as biceps, calves or rear deltoid bundles. The drug also gives the muscle an additional degree of stiffness and elaboration for a reaction time of approximately 20-30 hours. It is injected directly into the muscle in an amount of approximately 1-2 cc during the week, an ampoule per day.

Usually the drug effectively acts on two muscle groups at a time. The composition of the drug includes an anesthetic substance that facilitates the tolerance of the inflammation process. The inflammation disappears within one or two days, and, with the exception of painful sensations, does not cause side effects. Some claim that in a week they increased their arms and calves by 2-3 centimeters. If the drug doesn't work, the muscle is left looking flaccid, which usually happens in the calves. The most common use of the drug is to get an amazing "peak" on the biceps. Some use the drug the morning before the competition or the evening before and achieve additional volume and shape of the biceps with just one ampoule.

The drug is very popular in doping control competitions. In many cases, urine tests are taken on Thursday, for example, and competitions on Sunday. Thus, athletes have at their disposal Thursday night, Friday, Saturday and Sunday morning for injections of the drug. Many argue that in parallel with the increase in volume, the drug gives an additional degree of visual rigidity, especially in women. You can bet money that many of the Ms. Olympias owe their achievements to this drug. Some use the drug regularly, one injection per week, to accelerate the growth of lagging biceps or calves.

EPO (EPO)
Famous brand names: Erythropoietin, Epogen. Epogen (Epogen) or EPO is available in ampoules of 2000, 3000, 4000 and 10000 units. EPOB is an injectable hormonal drug that acts on the bone brain by stimulating the production of red blood cells. This is a relatively new drug, and some elite athletes, especially runners, and elite cyclists are experimenting with it. The drug is designed for people suffering from anemia for any reason. In its field of application, the drug is very effective and is sometimes used in blood transfusions. Athletes use the drug to dramatically increase the number of red blood cells that carry oxygen along with the bloodstream.

And increasing the ability of the blood to carry oxygen increases the performance of the athlete. This is from the field of "blood" doping.
