Winstrol Cycle

A Winstrol cycle is one of the most common anabolic steroid cycles of all. Somewhat mild in nature when compared to many other anabolic steroids this is a steroid well-suited for strengthening athletes in all sports and a very good bodybuilding contest prep hormone. While the basic Winstrol cycle has been part of sports for a very long time it reached new levels of popularity during the 1988 Summer Olympics when Canadian sprinter Ben Johnson tested positive for Stanozolol, the hormone that makes Winstrol.

While not the best bulking steroid for men a Winstrol cycle can be successfully run by female athletes in both bulking and dieting phases and as such is one of the few anabolic steroids that can be used safely by women. Regardless of sex or specific purpose of use a Winstrol cycle can provide fantastic gains to help you achieve your desired end. Let’s delve in and see what we can find.

Injectable & Tablet Forms:

A solid Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) based anabolic hormone, Stanozolol can be commonly found in both injectable and tablet form. Regardless of the form you have the same Stanozolol hormone and your Winstrol cycle will be just as effective with either form. It is true that the injectable form is slightly more potent and on this basis some will always choose this form for their Winstrol cycle. Further, as a very liver toxic steroid due to its C17-aa nature many assume the injectable is a safer option. Let’s be clear, while slightly more potent in its injectable form the difference is negligible at best. As for liver toxicity, the injectable form of Stanozolol is also of a C17-aa nature just like the tablet; both forms are highly liver toxic. When you’re planning your Winstrol cycle the only thing that really matters is ensuring your product is of a high quality nature; beyond this the form does not matter.

Winstrol Cycle for Women:

While anabolic steroid use can be very dangerous for women due to virilization effects, Winstrol remains one of the few choices females have at their disposal. Virilization symptoms appear to be much lower when supplementation is of a responsible nature but we must stress while the odds are in your favor virilization may still occur. If such symptoms begin to show the athlete should discontinue use immediately before they set in permanently.

Most women will find a Winstrol cycle of 6 weeks in length to be sufficient at a dosing of 10mg every other day to every day depending on the athlete, desired end and response to the hormone. Some women may be able to tolerate as much as a 20mg dose but they should be forewarned that virilization will become a stronger reality. While a Winstrol cycle can be a solid option for the female athlete Anavar still remains our primary choice for female athletes.

Winstrol Cycle for Men:

For the male Winstrol cycle, regardless of purpose of use 6-8 weeks of total use will normally suffice. For athletes looking for a boost in performance a dosing of 50mg every other day will in most all cases provide what they are looking for. Of course some will want more and if more is needed and this will be common in competitive bodybuilding circles or simply those looking for a similar physique a dose of 50mg every day can provide this end. As for doses of a higher nature, 100mg per day is the most Stanozolol any man will ever want to take and such a dose can only be recommended for very short periods of time. Such a case might be for a competitive bodybuilder right before his competition, say the last 10-14 days leading up to the show.

In all cases most men will find this to be a poor mass building steroid as the very nature of Stanozolol will not readily promote this end. It can have bulking benefits due to its ability to increase synergy between other anabolic steroids but due to it being so toxic to the liver use should be limited to specific and most beneficial times. If one will save his Winstrol cycle for such phases of use he will most certainly find the hormone to be highly beneficial.
