This is a steroid that is related to deca-durabolin and it also works in the same way. There is a slight structural difference in the chemical composition of the two steroids – the effects on the body are remarkably similar.
One of the differences between the steroids is that trenbolone has lower rates of aromatization compared to deca-durabolin.
This naturally makes it a more preferred steroid among consumers. The steroid also causes substantially less water retention which is a big advantage for people that carry out strenuous activities such as bodybuilding and extreme sports.
Trenbolone causes increase in the amount of lean muscle amongst users. Users can be sure that weight gained is caused by muscle and bone development and not water retention. The steroid produces high quality muscle tissue due to its limited aromatization.
The steroid is an androgen receptor and for this reason, it helps people to shed off unwanted fat. The steroid helps people to fight the effects of catabolic hormones which cause muscular degeneration. It increases protein synthesis and improves mineral absorption in the muscles.
It also improves oxygen supply to the muscles because of its ability to increase red blood cell count.
The steroid has a short half-life and this means that it is metabolized quickly after it is taken. It is administered by direct injection into the bloodstream. Because of its short half-life, trenbolone should be injected on a daily basis so it is not so hot for people who cannot stand the sight of needles.
It is a fast-acting steroid and the results are realized shortly after a person starts to use it. A person can start to notice increase in weight just weeks after starting to use the steroid.
This steroid has some disadvantages as do all other steroids. One of them is virilization and gynecomastia which can get worse depending on the duration of use and dosage. The hormone will cause women to grow Adam’s apples, break their voices, and generally have the body frames of men.
Men suffer from development of feminine features such as widening of hips and development of breasts. The recommended maximum dosage is 100 mg per day.
