Equipoise
Steroid Profile
When it
comes to creating muscle mass rather than any type of weight gain, Equipoise
has become a popular steroid option. This is injected and is the brand name for
the steroid Methandrostenolone. The steroid is anabolic, similar to
testosterone, however it is slower working and does not have as many of the
side effects. While the side effects are less, the outcome is also less; a
person will not gain as much weight through the use of Equipoise as they will
with testosterone.
Equipoise is
very similar to Deca, another popular steroid, in the outcome but they two do
work very differently. It was thought originally that the two worked just the
same way, even by the creators of the two drugs, but this has recently been
disproven.
However,
this steroid does create genuine muscle mass and is very popular with female
bodybuilders or athletes. The muscles are not fake and there is genuine
strength behind their builds. Also, many of the common side effects of steroids
are not seen with this one, which makes it popular among many women.
The buildup
of muscle is usually slow but this is the best way to build it up most of the
time. This means that the dose is usually higher or the cycle is taken for
longer. This allows time for the quality muscle to grow while the person’s body
is getting used to the new compound being introduced. It is one of the reasons
for the fewer side effects. However, due to the extra length of needing to take
the steroid, it will show up in the system a lot further into the future than
many others.
A common
side effect noticed with many steroids is water retention. This has not been
noted that often with Equipoise. Another common problem is oily skin and acne,
which prevents many females from choosing to use many steroids. Equipoise is a
popular option because it doesn’t have these side effects, except in extremely
high doses.
Equipoise
has been known to raise the red blood cells, which is very typical of many
steroids. However, this steroid raises them more than many others and is great
for those who suffer with blood conditions, such as anemia.
Weight gain
is common for almost all uses of Equipoise. There is an increase in appetite so
much that it makes it almost impossible to be able to stick to a diet. However,
by sticking to a healthy diet, the weight increase can be in quality muscle
rather than in fat. Of course, the fact that it is injected rather than taken
orally is partially the reason for the greater increase in appetite; it is
easier for the body to absorb the drug.
There is a
negative side effect to using Equipoise, which is the suppression of hormones.
Many people, especially men, will need injections of testosterone as it will
lead to other problems. This is one of many reasons why a person should be
prescribed this steroid by a doctor; the doctor is then able to monitor their
patient and ensure that all side effects noticed are held at bay.
