Expected Effects
Implements the following effects on the body:
- weight gain - this substance will perfectly cope with this task. When used correctly, it will kick in within two weeks and provide a good set of muscles with minimal muscle loss after the cycle. Also used by many athletes during breaks or off-season to get ready for the upcoming competition and stay in top shape.
- Rapid muscle recovery - when using the Deca 300, your body receives more energy and strength, which stimulates them to train even more and harder, as a result of which the best outcomes are guaranteed. This is due to increased levels of cortisol, which is responsible for the faster recovery of your body from stress or injury.
- Increase Bone Density - By increasing the level of collagen synthesis, it replenishes the mineral reserves of bone, skin, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. From time to time during workouts, there is a possibility of pulling the ligaments or injuring a muscle or tendon, but thanks to the additional analgesic effect and rapid tissue repair, you can minimize these effects.
- Boosts Testosterone - This beneficial effect helps increase endurance and body strength, allowing you to train longer and get the most out of its use. As a result, you gradually gain strength gains.
- Increases the number of red blood cells - thereby increasing the supply of oxygen to your organs and tissue cells, which extends the time and quality of their work. This way you have the opportunity to train for longer periods of time, without feeling tired or slightly fatigued.

How to take it
Administration and Dosages
The drug is administered subcutaneously, intramuscularly. Use 22-25g syringes with a needle 1-1,5 inch long for intramuscular injections and 28-30g insulin needle for under skin injections.
The standard dosage is 250-300 mg once a week. The cycle lasts 8-12 weeks.
After opening, the ampoule should be used immediately. Store in a cool place below 30 ° C. Do not refrigerate as this will impede product administration. Do not use Deca after the expiration date.
Cycles
Deca 300 is one of the most widespread anabolic steroids in the past and now, especially for men in order to gain muscle mass. One of the main advantages is that nandrolone practically does not cause the rollback phenomenon. To achieve the maximum effect, the substance is recommended to be combined with a high-calorie diet, vitamins, minerals, and proteins.
The substance is often used by athletes as a single drug, but also in combination with other steroids for more prominent effectiveness. For example:
Deca 300 + Dianabol
The combination of these two drugs is very popular. Small dosages and an adequate mixture of these two drugs have a positive effect on muscle mass gaining and will not provoke any negative reactions.
Dianabol at a dose of 30 mg is practically non-toxic to the liver, and also has an androgenic effect that compensates for the lack of natural androgens during the cycle. Deco should be taken in an amount of 200-300 mg per week.
This combination suppresses endogenous testosterone, therefore it is recommended to include Gonadotropin and Testosterone as well.
Deca 300 + Sustanon 250
The use of these two substances will also lead to better weight gain efficiency and the correct dosage will not provoke additional negative reactions.
Take Deco and Sustanon in standard amounts, but also add Cabergoline to the cycle, which will eliminate the negative progestin effect of nandrolone on sexual function and reduce the risk of developing gynecomastia, as well as Gonadotropin to prevent testicular atrophy and fast recovery after the cycle. Be sure to use Clomiphene or Toremifene as PCT.
PCT
PCT is an important part after going through any steroid cycle. If your cycle is longer than 8 weeks, start using Chorionic Gonadotropin at 4-5 weeks of your cycle. Take 500 mg 2 times a week.
To suppress progestin activity, use Bromocriptine 1.25mg twice a day, starting at week 2 of the cycle and ending 2-3 weeks after. Instead of Bromocriptine, you can use Cabergoline 0.5 tablets (0.25 mg) twice a week after a cycle.
To restore the hypothalamus-pituitary-testes axis, use Clomid, one week before the end of the cycle and use it for 4-5 weeks.
Do not use Tamoxifen on PCT as it increases the sensitivity of progestin receptors.
Taking with other medicines
Other medicines can affect how Deca works, so be careful when using these substances:
Anticoagulants or medicines used to prevent blood clotting
Hypoglycemic agents or medicines used to treat diabetes, such as insulin or medicines to control blood sugar
Erythropoietin (anemia medicine)
ACTH hormone or corticosteroids (used to treat arthritis, allergic conditions, and asthma)
The active substance of Deca can affect the effectiveness of these drugs, so study their combined use, and it is better to consult your doctor.
