this thread might help. Helps reduce gyno and "boosts muscle gains". Some one says: "epistane/havoc is a superdrol clone"

here's the thread i'm reading.
if you have time to kill, it's a good read on lab tests and how maybe we shouldn't trust everything the label claims:

i got to say, i never really used any prohormones...........bu t this is really a "pro-steroid"................i like it better then avavar, i kind of even like it better then low-does winny.............its anti-estrogenic effects are very apparent................ .its a great hardening agent.................do nt expect to put 20 lbs with it, but the 3-5 pounds you will put on are quality pounds...........i am currently running it with sustanon and the results surprised even myself...............its a nice little welcome addition to any stack

are you sure it's not just the sustanon that's working?

Sorry for the stupid question, but how does stacking drugs improve the effects? I mean are the steroids working through different parthways? I thought Steroids increased testosterone (aside from gH and insulin) :-[

the sustanon was working like a charm, but about 11 weeks in, when i added the epistane, in the next couple weeks, it was like my cycle kickstarted all over again..........i was holding some puff in my nipples that cleared, my muscles got an overall denser look..............histor ically sustanon is known as a big water holding drug, and this really changed that dynamic

im not a chemist, so i wont give you a bullshit answer.........but its known as synergy, different steroids work through similar, yet different pathways, so stacking them. in essence covers more bases............you heard the phrase, the whole is greater then the sum of its parts.

If you want an in depth answer on how steroids work, read this article. By THE best internet source of PED information ever (rip).

As far as stacking, most do it but a lot of it is simply based on experimentation and there's little hard scientific evidence of true synergy. Patrick Arnold (of BALCO fame) has suggested running one compound at a time.

do all these legal steroids make you have gyno?
I have a puffy chest as it is

Epistane works pretty well, if yuo have Estrogen.There is actually a few good over the counter estrogen blockers that as good if not better then prescription estrogen blockers.By keeping you estrogen in check you muscles will look bigger harder, and fuller.
Elevated Estrogen has been also shown to take away definition in the lower body, taking away from the detail in the legs.
As far as stacking anabolics, why would you?Every pro and national level bodybuilder I know stack anabolics, and even pro hormones.By stacking hormones, and even prohormones, it creates a synergistic effect.
My favorite stack was Sustanon, Primobolan and Trenbalone, in the off season.This combination of anabolics worked really well together.I dont think a person shou;d use more then 2 or 3 things at a time tops, unless your 4 weeks out from a show.
If your going to stack hormones, or prohormones, make sure they work well together.
I know guys who take estrogen blockers, even though then dont have elevated estrogen, which to me is silly.

Are you sure the effect is synergistic and not just additive?

The supposed anti-estrogenic effect is based off data on another hormone, Mepitiostane.

T-Bombz,I dont want to fit i.I will never be considered a "getbigger" .Do you understand that??? Or do you have something stuck up your ass, because its like a total body massage,but only in your ass,, lol.
Getitonny isnt even my screen name its the one of my employees screen names.I use it now and then.I dont belong to getbig, and I really dont want to.I have a "real life" , unlike 90% of these jokers with 10k-20k+ POSTS
I am a retired "real " bodybuilder', who accomplished more then you and Van will ever accomplish.
T-Bombz I fit and I am respected by real bodybuilders, ones that dont hang out on the internet.

Of course there is no scientific proof , there never will be any on bodybuilders or gym rats , but stacking compounds for physical enhancement does have a synergistic effect , asking if its additive is just playing with words as its the same thing , you should be a politician Van ;D

yeah i agree completely, in this sport of ours, with the drugs we use, most "evidence" is either speculatory or circumstantial.......... we are the ginny pigs........but it is pretty much proven that stacking compounds is more benificial then just taking more of one singular compound.
and as far as whether the effects are "additive" or "synergistic"..............that's just mincing words.

Nah, it's not just playing with words. It's not the same. :D
Example, which is better for growth:
1000mg test
or
600mg test + 400mg Deca
You'll get both types of opinions from different users. Some will say test alone is best and vice versa.
Stacking steroids definitely is additive... when your total dose is greater! More androgen, more growth... up to a point.
Stacking might even be the opposite of synergistic sometimes and hurt gains as steroids can "compete" with each other. I saw where Phil Hernon said if he could go back in time he wouldn't use Deca as he feels it hurt his gains from testosterone.
Now I'm not saying there can't be synergistic effects, there probably are in some cases, just that it's experimental and all bodybuilders don't feel the same way about different stacks.
I'm sure you'll both agree that you've heard bodybuilders say, "man, I get just as good gains with just test, I don't need to add a second drug".

I took it at their maximum recommended dosage. I enjoyed the cycle. Didn't gain a whole lot of weight, but strength went up and it provided a nice energetic buzz. Good stuff

How about epistane for chicks? 10mg a day or so?
