Stanozolol is a 17α-methylated synthetic anabolic steroid, a derivative of dihydrotestosterone, which differs markedly from natural steroids by the addition of +3,2-pyrazole.
FDA approved for human use (Stanozolol was originally developed for use in animals (horses)). Stanozolol shows some progesterone antagonism (there are opinions that the drug protects against the progestin action of nandrolones, but weakly).
It has low androgenic activity and high anabolic activity.
EFFECTS:
Cutting cycle is one of the main uses of stanozolol.
Significant increases in strength and endurance are valuable benefits in powerlifting and athletics.
Burning fat.
Increased appetite.
Removal of excess fluids from the body.
Reduce SHBG level.
Stanozolol is very popular in bodybuilding because it works differently than most steroids. The drug insignificantly affects body weight, however, it gives relief to muscles, improves venous remodeling and burns fat, so it is used mainly during “cutting” courses.
According to scientific tests, oral stanozolol in the amount of 0.2 mg per kilogram of an athlete’s weight reduces the level of globulin, which binds anabolic hormones, by 50%. This means that the effectiveness of taking other steroids in combination with stanozolol will increase significantly. According to a study conducted in 1989, a single dose of stanozolol in the amount of 0.2 mg per 1 kg of body weight can reduce the amount of SHBG by 50%, which is useful for both athletes who exceed the physiological norms of hormones and for older people whose SHBG exceeds normal values ​​due to age-related changes, which lead to an increase in free testosterone.
Stanozolol is able to interact with androgen receptors at the microsomal level. This attachment to adipose tissue receptors can significantly improve fat burning.
The presence of an anti-estrogenic and anti-progestin effect (competitive inhibition of progesterone receptors) is assumed.
The drug is not converted into estrogen, so it does not cause side effects such as gynecomastia and edema.
SIDE EFFECTS:
Large joint pain and ligament damage are the most common complications. To minimize the risk, stanozolol should be combined with testosterone or deca.
Increased blood pressure.
An increase in cholesterol levels.
Since Stanozolol is a derivative of DHT, androgenic side effects are possible: hair loss on the scalp, acne, suppression of the production of one’s own testosterone, etc.
Liver toxicity – manifested through alpha-17-alkylation.
Myocardial hypertrophy – especially at high doses.
