Does any member here have any experience with anadrol? Can you offer any details (results, feeling while on, dose, other steroids you took, blood tests if you did them, anything else)?

I'm really considering trying it someday, but keep reading conflicting reports. Everything from 'yeah bro I became the strongest and biggest guy at my gym' to 'gave me gyno, made me piss out my liver and kill my wife'.

So what's your opinion and what do you like to stack it with (for those of you that like it)?
 
It's an intrinsic estrogen that offers very little benefit to those who train for body composition. Skip it.
 
What if my main goal is strength?

Well, what are your lifts looking like at the present time?

If you're at a level where chemical enhancement is even a viable option, simply crank up the test dosage and get on Dbol.
 
people on this board crack me up. Arol is awesome, run it at 50mg-100mg ed for 4-6 weeks along with a steady dose of test. The best cycle I have ever run was Test, Tren, Anadrol. High androgen plus anadrol = killer gains and massive ability to turn food into muscle. BTW just to clear this up I am a competitive bodybuilder, not a powerlifter so i know for a fact that anadrol is a solid compound for physique gains.

Exactly. The majority of people here aren't bodybuilders so they have bodies with no no condition and high body fat percentages.

Anadrol is good if you happen to have a low body fat, good conditioning, and have a solid foundation.

The steroid newbie has no business running Anadrol but someone like you does, if you are indeed a competitive bodybuilder.

Anadrol is often used as a booster at the beginning of cycle for the 2 weeks before the test kicks in. It will make you a hell of a lot stronger in a very short space of time, but it will also cause lots of bloat in your face and water in your muscles. It is hepatoxic as a bitch too. On top of that you will keep very little of the gains made from using Anadrol, even if you have good PCT, but if you are using it at the beginning of the cycle that doesn't really matter anyway.

If you take a little Arimidex with it do you don't retain as much water it is OK. It is pretty much a kick starter like DBol.

If you are talking about using it on its own as a stand alone cycle that is absurd and shows you know nothing about steroids. You can't use it for more than 3 weeks because it is so harsh on the liver and most of the weight you gain will be water weight. It will shut your balls down HARD so they produce no natural test.

If you use Anadrol on its own for 3 weeks you will get a lot stronger and a lot bigger for those 3 weeks. As soon as you stop, even with good PCT, you will loose all the weight, you will lose the strength, the Anadrol with aromatise and your estrogen levels will shoot up. Your Cortisone (or is it cortisol) levels will shoot up and where you were previously in an anabolic state, you will now be in a catabolic state, which means your body will use muscle for energy. You will be weak and fluey and you will have terrible training sessions until you take enough Clomid and/or HCG to kickstart your balls again. By that time the Anadrol gains will have gone and you will be no bigger than before you too kit, but you will be less healthy.

People don't use Anadrol or Dbol as stand alone cycles if they know what they are doing. A Real cycle includes test, and because test takes two weeks to start working, Anadrol and DBOL are used as a kickstart at the front of the cycle. that is it. They are not a cycle and they aren't to be used alone.

About 575 squat (260kg), don't really bench, 600 dead (275kg), and 120kg strict standing press. Would like a 140 kg ohp some day.

@DavidWhy:
No, wasn't planing on using it standalone, just as an oral for my next cycle (considering either drol + test or low dose test + high dose tren (some say this avoid much of it's sides))
 
If I were you I would use Anadrol as a kickstart with Testosterone and add in some Tren. As far as the Tren goes, if you have no experience running it start at 50mg and work up to 75mg. Once you know you can handle it and have an idea of the side effects you get bump it up to 100mg a day. Regardless of the Trenbolone dose, make sure you inject Trenbolone Acetate everyday. None of this every other day injection. For the true effects of Trenbolone to show and for your physique to reap the benefits you need to inject everyday.
 
Thanks mate, I've tried tren-a before (ed shots) and even at 50mg per day the sides sucked to much compared to the positives.

Anyway, this is still all in the planing stages, so I have plenty of time for more research and thought.
 
If Tren is too much for you and you have access to it, try using 1-Test Cypionate which is the commonly used name for Dihydroboldenone Cypionate. Many bodybuilders agree that it's similar to Tren but the only difference is the lack of severe side effects.
 
Those night sweats on Tren are a proper pain in the arse. I used to have to sleep on towels, with my by my bedside so when I woke up with the bed soaking wet I could take replace the towels and wipe myself down. Thankfully I wasn't living a lass then cause she wouldn't have been happy.

I agree. I have to wash my blankets and pillow case every day because I sweat so bad. There are nights I am so soaked in sweat I have to take a shower.

He could even try using Tren-E. I have heard that the symptoms are a lot harsher on the short esters than the long ones.

And people think we are just vain for looking as good as we do. They don't realise the sacrifices we have to make!

They truly don't. They think we just take a few steroids and lift but it's much more than that. Factor in dealing with the mental and physical side effects, preventing side effects, throw in religious workouts strict eating habits, and add not drinking or taking drugs and bodybuilding becomes a fucking chore with many sacrifices. It truly takes dedication.
