For years I've gotten emails asking what's the best AAS for the money, what gives you the most bang for your buck, what's the best off-season AAS and the best contest AAS, etc, etc.
Lets start by stating the obvious, testosterone is by far the most important and essential AAS you'll ever use hands down but what's next on the list? IMO nothing beats trenbolone and that goes for contest dieting or the off-season bulking stage.
Now some will argue that HGH is the most important part of the puzzle when talking about serious hardcore competitive bodybuilding. In that regards it is important but we're talking about AAS here and only AAS...that said, although added HGH is worth its weight in gold, without the right compound of AAS it's a waste of money.
Tren without a doubt is one of if not the most potent AAS available, nearly 400% more than testosterone on paper...that alone should tell you a lot! But what type of tren is best? IMO stay away from tren-e or hex or any of the other various mixtures, tren-a, although it needs to be injected far more often than its counterparts, is mg for mg more potent because the body can and will use more per mg....think of it like protein, take beef vs. eggs, if you eat 50g of protein from either source you've just ingested 50g of protein but your body will absorb and use a higher percentage of the protein from the eggs than it will from the beef.
As for off-season growth, many reserve tren for only their contest prep, it helps them harden, tren has been shown to help reduce bodyfat and it can give you an extra hard grainy look once you reach low levels of bodyfat, these are all true statements but what about the off-season? It's more potent than test, this we know, would that not be enough to make one think it should be good for off-season growth? It should be but what about the fact that it will help you push harder, give you more strength, help speed up your metabolism, etc? Are those not key factors of good off-season growth? Of course they are and this makes tren, especially tren-a golden in my book!
