Winstrol - Stanozolol is a very commonly used
anabolic steroid for cutting cycles. While many people will attempt to use
Dianabol or even Anadrol for cutting cycles, I�ve really never heard of anyone
using Stanozolol for anything except a cutting cycle. It�s a bit of a
one-trick-pony in this respect. Let me repeat that: Stanozolol is a cutting
drug. Not many people will argue for its use in a bulking cycle. It�s certainly
not a very effective compound for treating anemia and thus, one could rightly
assume that its role in bulking cycles is very limited. One novel use for
Winstrol in any cycle (perhaps even bulking) would be to use it at a very
limited dose, in order to lower SHBG. One of the properties of Winstrol is it�s
profound ability to lower SHBG much more than other steroids. A dose of .2mg/kg
lowered SHBG significantly, which would in turn, raise the amount of free
testosterone circulating in the body. As with 99% of steroids, however, it�s
important to note that suppression of your natural hormonal levels will occur
(though perhaps not to the extent that it will with many other steroids). As
with running virtually any compound, testosterone supplementation (i.e. running
test in a cycle containing Winstrol) is warranted to avoid possible sexual
dysfunction.
Winstrol is another
one of the popular ones. Next to Deca and D-bol the third most abused substance
among athletes is stanozolol, as documented by the many positive drug tests.
Among them the case sprinter Ben Johnson, who was stripped of his Gold Medal in
the 100 meter dash in the 1988 Olympics. But since then the number of positives
has grown exponentially. In bodybuilding Shawn Ray's positive in the 1990 Arnold
Schwarzenegger Classic (a brief stint the IFBB had with drug testing). Ray was
the winner of that event, but Canadion pro Nimrod King was also shown to have
stanazolol metabolites in his urine
There is no need for
an anti-estrogen as Winny may have such a property of its own and does not
aromatize at any rate. The only counter-indication with Winny would perhaps be
an anti-hypertensive if you use for a longer stack. Be sure to get liver values
checked if you use for longer than 6 weeks on end. There is no real use for
Clomid or Nolva post-cycle for Winny specifically since there is no post-cycle
aromatisation to cause negative feedback. That makes whatever gains you made on
Winny quite easy to maintain.
