Is a high dosage of nandrolone really necessary for bulking?

Hi,

Does taking a high dosage of nandrolone decanoate (say 400mg a week) really makes a difference for bulking up than a more modest dosage (50mg a week)?

Also, I have this 300mg/ml underground nandrolone, but so far I've only seen pharmaceutical brands in the 50mg/ml form. I wonder if the absorption/efficiency on a higher proportion ratio of mg/ml is as efficient as a lower one?

Thanks!
 
50mg nandrolone decanoate per week won't aid you in bulking up at all.

The pharm aas are usually at lower concentrations because they aren't meant to be dosed higher than trt. UGL aas make more concentrated versions so you don't need to inject a lot of oil for the desired dose.

400mg is a fairly average dose, With a 7 day half-life and ester weight of about 40%, 50mg won't do anything for muscle hypertrophy...
 
Was just thinking about something - is the op female? Their doses are usually lower than male doses, but I don't know enough about females + aas to recommend anything, especially because the consequences of fucking up with aas are worse for them.
 
Thanks for the reply!

I'm a guy, I wouldn't recommend nandrolone for a girl unless she's really into building a big muscular body.

I originally took 300mg per week for injury issues and it actually seemed to make a considerable difference alongside 600mg test

Big difference between low-dose for injury and bumping up sufficient for hypertrophy.... Especially with the decanoate ester being so much of the total compound weight..
 
Personally I only see 50mg pharmacy nandrolone decanoate used for quality assurance and for women usage. Anything else is too much oil imo.
 
Would you say that 400mg/week is too low for bulking?

I'm currently on 400 enanthate + 400 deca with moderate results. Will add 50mg Dianabol next week. Should increase the test & deca dosage to 450mg too?

400mg is a decent amount, dependant on your body weight + BF%...

Impossible to answer with 100% certainty without knowing your cycle history/stats/response to hormones/blah blah, but around 1g (give or take a bit) of AAS per week is a good dose for most guys - good gains and still relatively side effect free. So I'd say you're good.. you can up to 450 mg each (or 500 or even 600) if you want (or aren't getting enough from the current amount).
 
I'm 26, this is my 4th or 5th cycle. I've done anavar, winstrol, trenbolone, but this is the first time I'll be doing d-bol. I respond well to hormones but I always took an easy approach. I've put 30lbs on the last 3 years (from 135 to 165, 10%BF), now I'm aiming 180 with this cycle. My ultimate goal is to reach 200 lbs in the next two years.
 
How tall are you my friend? I started hormones at around 165 and now I'm at 180 and that's in 4 months. I'm 5' 6" which is why I'm just curious as you seem on the light side and I'm around 12% bf btw.

Rather than add dbol, bump up the deca another 200mg....

I'm 5'11''. I've gained 20lbs in 6 weeks on my first cycle, but thats does not mean you'll keep it all afterwards. There's a lot of learning in the process.

Especially with the decanoate ester being so much of the total compound weight.. You really need a minimum of 400-600mg to notice significant gains from Nandrolone on the decanoate ester

For some reason I can't make sense of this can you re-phrase what you said here......

GF-Edit..... Any better Mr Nolys..?

I'll assume he means the margin of dosing for the synovial cushion vs the dosing for muscular growth is way different. With nandrolone decanoate that ester accounts for the majority of the weight of the molecule so 200mg deca is very little actual nandrolone even 400mg is rather small on the grand scale of things for advanced body builders.

I'm a bit confused as I'm new to all this. Are you saying you only see deca in 50ml vials/bottles? I get 200mg/ml in a 10ml vial here in NYC, prescribed and filled.
 
Oh, I get it. I believe you're saying at that amount, it' only used for checking quality and/or women.

Nope..!! 50mg per ml, is fuck-all and a pain in the arse pinning 4ml just to get 200mg twice a week....!!
