Trenbolone Cycles
It will be repeated over and over again that trenbolone is 5 times the strength of testosterone, and that its strength and side effect potential is equally as great.
Therefore, all beginner trenbolone users are actually actually intermediate or advanced anabolic steroid users.
So it goes without saying that trenbolone is absolutely not for the beginner anabolic steroid user.
Therefore, the average beginner trenbolone cycle is actually an intermediate to advanced anabolic steroid cycle.
The average beginner trenbolone cycle should always consist of trenbolone stacked with testosterone, which is a key anabolic steroid that trenbolone beginners should have extensive experience with.
It is recommended that a trenbolone cycle include no other anabolic steroids with testosterone being the only one.
This is because the purpose is to gauge the individual response to trenbolone during the first run.
This will allow the individual to know and understand if any unwanted or uncomfortable side effects are occurring, so that they can state what is happening and what is causing the side effects or reactions.
When it comes to intermediate trenbolone cycles, it is generally understood that intermediate users have grown accustomed to trenbolone enough to fully understand how their body reacts to this compound.
At this stage, you can slowly adjust and increase the dosage of trenbolone, as well as stack it with other anabolic steroids.
Intermediate or advanced trenbolone users should not really feel the need or necessity to stack other compounds besides testosterone with trenbolone.
This is especially true given the vast strength and favorable features of trenbolone.
Advanced users who have more or less 'mastered' the use of a trenbolone cycle will usually enter what can be considered an experimental phase.
This experimental phase may include experimenting with higher doses of trenbolone (keep in mind that this is a very risky endeavor and higher doses of trenbolone are often very destructive to the body).
Experimental ventures into advanced trenbolone cycles may also include the use and stacking of other compounds with trenbolone.
Beginner Trenbolone Cycle
Beginner Trenbolone Acetate Cycle #1 (8 weeks total cycle time)
|
1- 8week |
- Testosterone Propionate 400mg /week
- Trenbolone Acetate 300mg /week |
||
This beginner trenbolone cycle is considered the most common beginner trenbolone cycle.
It is a very solid cycle that is used by many trenbolone beginners, but is also frequently used by intermediate and advanced users as well.
It is very effective at its job.
Testosterone should always be stacked with trenbolone and there are no exceptions to this particular rule.
The minimum testosterone dose that should be run with trenbolone should be at least a TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) dose, which we will discuss in detail in another example trenbolone cycle.
For this particular beginner cycle, the short ester Trenbolone acetate variant will be run in conjunction with the short ester testosterone propionate for ease of administration and timing of injections.
Additionally, since both substances are oil-based, they can also be combined in one syringe and injected without problems.
The two compounds have very similar half-lives and tend to work well with each other, which is the main reason for using them together.
Because both compounds are short esterified and fast acting, the cycle duration is set at the shortest limit of 8 weeks. Most users generally believe that 8 weeks is an acceptable range for trenbolone use, as longer trenbolone cycles beyond 8 weeks generally report 'harsher' side effects that become more pronounced over time.
Therefore, the proper precaution with a powerful compound like trenbolone is to run as short a cycle as possible.
Beginner Trenbolone Enanthate Cycle #2 (12 weeks total cycle time)
|
1- 12week |
- Testosterone Enanthate 100mg /week
- Trenbolone Enanthate 300mg /week |
||
There are two main changes in this second sample beginner trenbolone cycle:
The use of testosterone in a TRT dose and the switch to longer ester forms of testosterone and trenbolone.
Because the longer ester variants are used, the total cycle length must be extended to 12 weeks due to the slower time it takes for plasma levels to reach optimal levels.
Therefore, the 'kick-in' period of the longer ester is generally noticed by the user later than with shorter ester anabolic steroids.
In regards to testosterone being run in TRT doses, this is simply to maintain normal physiological levels of testosterone at par with what is naturally produced by the body, and by doing so creates an environment where there is very little to no aromatization of testosterone, which leads to more normal and controlled levels of estrogen.
As estrogen levels rise above the normal physiologic range, the severity and intensity of side effects (primarily progestogenic side effects) caused by trenbolone often increase.
This is also common with other 19-NOR compounds such as nandrolone, so it stands to reason that controlling estrogen in this manner and negating the use of aromatase inhibitors will make it easier to control progestogenic side effects.
The other main reason for maintaining testosterone in TRT doses is to include testosterone in the cycle for the sole purpose of maintaining normal physiological health functions in the absence of endogenous natural testosterone production due to the suppressive nature of trenbolone (or any other anabolic steroid used in the cycle).
Intermediate Trenbolone Cycles
Intermediate Trenbolone Acetate Cycle (8 weeks total cycle)
|
1- 8week |
- Testosterone Propionate 100mg /week
- Trenbolone Acetate 400mg /week |
||
|
1- 4week |
- DianaBol 25-50mg /day |
||
The intermediate trenbolone cycle example described above introduces a slightly higher dose of trenbolone than the beginner dose.
Testosterone is once again relegated to a supporting role in TRT rather than being used as the primary anabolic (this is the area covered by Trenbolone and Dianabol).
Dianabol is just a new compound introduced into this cycle, but the strength of trenbolone is such that it is not necessary, as it is sufficient without any other compound besides testosterone.
In this case, Dianabol can be considered a kickstart compound for these cycles, which is ideal for the bulking and strength gains phase.
Advanced Trenbolone Cycles
Advanced Trenbolone Enanthate Cycle (12 weeks total cycle)
|
1- 12week |
- Testosterone Enanthate 100mg /week
- Trenbolone Enanthate 800mg /week
- Drostanolone Enanthate (Masteron) 400mg /week |
||
This advanced trenbolone cycle goes back to a compound that has been used for a long time for various explanations to our readers.
As you know, all compounds in a trenbolone cycle are enanthate ester variants and having all compounds possess the same ester makes dosing, timing of injections easier and also allows all compounds to be loaded into the same syringe.
The dose of trenbolone is increased to a higher usage range, testosterone is once again relegated to a TRT role and drostanolone (aka masteron) is chosen as the compound of choice as it complements trenbolone very well and should give the user the desired 'ripped', 'lean' and 'hard' look
To achieve this effect, the user's body fat percentage must be low enough, so Masteron should generally only be used by bodybuilders in the pre-competition phase.
Combination of different ester types
Finally, it should be mentioned that certain esters of trenbolone do not need to be stacked with similarly esterified anabolic steroids (e.g. trenbolone enanthate stacked with testosterone enanthate).
For example, it is a perfectly fine and safe practice to combine trenbolone acetate with testosterone enanthate (instead of testosterone propionate) in a trenbolone cycle.
These combinations are not problematic and in fact work well, but any individual curious about these combinations should always be aware that the proper timing, half-life, and frequency of injections are specific to each compound.
For example, the only reason why many people prefer to stack Testosterone Enanthate and Trenbolone Enanthate is because of the convenience aspect and ease of administration and timing (since both compounds have the same half-life).
