Boldenone

Boldenone Undecylenate is an anabolic androgenic steroid derived from testosterone, also known as Equipoise. The substance is similar to Deca Durabolin, but Boldenone does not have progestin properties unlike Deca.

The drug has much similar with testosterone in terms of natural enhancement properties. Common properties include its ability to:

• increase protein synthesis
• retain nitrogen in muscles
• inhibit glucocorticoid hormones
• increase IGF-1 production

Characteristics:

• Classification: Anabolic Steroid
• Active Half-life: 2-3 days
• Dosage: 400-1000 mg a week
• Water Retention: Low
• Aromatization: Low

Beneficial effects

The effects of EQ are quite ordinary. It is a generally well-tolerated anabolic steroid which exhibits noticeable anabolic activity.

As an off-season mass-gaining steroid, Equipoise can provide quality muscle gains.

It increases strength (which is very beneficial for a massive offseason plan or for improving athletic performance.

Equipoise can also be used during a cutting cycles (in fact, it might be the most profitable here. The remedy is excellent for protecting lean muscle mass. Also, you must follow a calorie deficit, to burn more calories than you consume - to lose fat.)

These effects are greatly enhanced in combination with non-aromatizing steroids, such as Masteron or Trenbolone. However, during competitive bodybuilding training plans, while EQ is commonly used, it is usually used only at the beginning of the cutting cycle.

Usually, it is stopped in the second half of the cycle. (In any case, it is best to avoid any estrogenic activity during this stage, or at least minimize it as much as possible.).

Side effects

Equipose is generally a well-tolerated anabolic steroid for most users. The side effects are possible, but this substance is so suitable for most healthy adults. They are divided into 2 categories:

Estrogenic:

• High estrogen levels can be problematic, provoking:
• gynecomastia
• excess water retention
• high blood pressure

It is sometimes necessary to take antiestrogen drugs to resist these estrogenic effects. Not everyone needs an antiestrogen when using this steroid, but it is always helpful to have at least one. You can choose antiestrogens, including selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs), for example, Nolvadex (tamoxifen citrate) and aromatase inhibitors (AI), for example, Arimidex (anastrozole).

Androgenic:

• acne
• accelerated hair loss in people prone to male pattern baldness
• body hair growth
•  Use Accutane to combat acne, and Finasteride against hair loss.

Administration

Equipoise standard dosages usually vary in the range of 200-400 mg per week. Most men use 400 mg to be very well-tolerated. A lot of users also use 600 mg per week, which is also exceptionally well-tolerated, and the side effects are elementary to control.

However, these doses increase estrogenic potential. Most athletes can quickly get by with one injection per week because of the steroid's long-term activity. However, dividing the weekly amount into 2-3 smaller injections will reduce the total injection volume. Some users say that it is easier to control side effects with a smaller and more frequent injection schedule, despite the too long elimination half-life.

In general, Equipoise should be used for at least 8 weeks. It is a very common length of use in cutting cycles. In many cutting cycles, Equipoise starts at 8 weeks with an additional 4-8 weeks without hormones and non-aromatizing agents. During the off-season, 8 weeks will be again the minimum, but most will find 12 weeks much more effective.
