Traveling a Lot - Not Coming Off Test?

[unreal24278]

However OP should know not to consume alcohol on dbol. Whilst it isn’t the most dangerous thing one can possibly do (say having a pint on 5-10mg/day) it’s roughly equatable to drinking whilst taking Tylenol… and you almost certainly wouldn’t do that (at least I hope one wouldn’t)

I mention this because of the mention of travel… holidays are one of the times wherein many adults drink to excess (who wouldn’t usually), as it’s seen as a way to “let loose” from the general stressors of life… even though said stressors come right back the next day, compounded by the overwhelming feeling of death. That or they’re looking to have a little bit of invigorating, irresponsible fun I guess

In terms of physiologic replacement, dbol has more appropriate properties (aromatisation, highly androgenic 5a reduced metabolite… even if only produced in trace amounts, positive neurological effect for many etc)

I remember a few years ago I went on a holiday and was practically binge drinking every night while on 50mg/d dbol and had some bloods when I got back only to see a tiny elevation in liver values, nothing the doctor said to worry about.

Dont drink anymore and wouldnt recommend it on orals but thats my experience.

Dbol at a low dose would actually serve as a decent enough replacement for that time. By low dose I mean like 5-10mg/d.

Definitely something I will consider. Thanks!

Yeah, spot on. But will definitely weigh out the fact that since I wanna be on Dbol to keep my levels ‘stable’ I will have to abstain from alcohol.

Haha! just the thing I need to see! But like what’s said so often, everybody is different, a man’s meat can be another man’s poison. Cheers man!

[unreal24278]

Binge drinking every night is terrible for you regardless (cardiovascular toxicity, nephrotoxicity, effects on neurological function, gastrointestinal ulcers etc)

There are far safer options, both licit and illicit compared to binge drinking daily… not judging though, I did the same thing for a few days in a row around my 18th birthday.

Wasn’t on orals though

Truth be told, if dbol wasn’t hepatotoxic I would use it year round in low doses with tiny amounts of testosterone as trt. I love the feeling on it more than anything else I’ve tried.

Another question pops up, since I can’t pin test for the 9 days. Taking Dbol is just to make sure I’m still ‘anabolic’ cause it def suppresses test levels and it might make it worst since I’m can’t pin test at all for the 9 days.

Or if I’m wrong, what’s the rational behind taking dbol as a ’replacement’ for the 9 days I can’t pin test and Deca.

Thanks in advance man.

Dbol was originally developed for testosterone replacement therapy, it will stop you feeling shit from the decreasing levels of Testosterone by acting as its (much superior) replacement.

It can’t suppress you. You have zero testosterone at this point. Suppression is not an issue.

@iron_yuppie

Your body needs testosterone to function properly. Can you live without it for 10 weeks? Sure. Not ideal, but you won’t die. But…

Our jacked and very smart friend @Singhbuilder makes an excellent point. For 10 weeks you could go without testosterone if your body is getting something that mimics it in several ways, including as he pointed out some estrogen. Dianabol at a low dose (like 10mg/d) could absolutely serve as a baseline test replacement for a cycle that is built around other compounds. So why isn’t that done more often? Well, because test is dirt cheap, easily accessible, not hepatotoxic like dbol, and if you’re already pinning other drugs you would just use test with them. It’s not a good option for most guys, because most guys respond really, really well to testosterone. But for those who simply do not do well on higher doses of test it would be a reasonable enough alternative. You run some additional risk of libido issues, but maybe that trade off is worth it for a guy who has bad reactions to higher (or even replacement levels of) testosterone.

Disclaimer: I do not endorse this plan. I feel amazing on testosterone at several varying doses, and as such I would never imagine using something else. But this post is an acknowledgment that not everyone is like me and that some simply hate using test for various reasons. If you are new to steroids you should absolutely not do what I have said here. You use testosterone until you know for sure that it doesn’t agree with you. Chances are you’ll do well on it. This particular post is directed only at the small minority that has issues with test and is seeking an alternative.

Used the search engine and found this. Well explained and felt it can be of use to others learning this topic.

Edit: I realize that lately, I’m sounding like a commercial for Texas. Not intended just letting people know what’s out there.

I have noticed this with every person I have met from Texas.

I think it was developed in response to the Russians figuring out how to synthetically produce testosterone and using it with their Olympic atheletes. Dbol was produced by the USA for sports performance. I don’t think the original intent was for TRT.

[dextermorgan]

Looks like you’re both right.

Metandienone was formerly approved and marketed for the treatment of hypogonadism, but has since been discontinued and withdrawn in most countries, including in the United States.[14][3][5]

@mnben87

developed in response to the Russians

I think this may have been the ‘real’ reason why it was made but its actual use was for hormone replacement.

You should move to Texas. There are several people from India in my agency alone. Shit, with your background in genetics, could probably land a nice research position with a research hospital.

I have been considering this for a very long time and I could really get used to the weather in Texas. I have some family friends in Dallas, although I’ve only ever been to the airport (which was amazing) they say its a real good state to live in. Looking at the salaries for a genetic research scientist out in Texas (more than triple what I’m getting now), man I could live well, really well.

Gets way too hot in Texas. I’m in London currently and the weather I’ve experienced today is what I’d call optimum. It’s about 8-9 degrees Celsius, not so cold that I have to wear a jacket but not so sweltering I’ve got to walk around in shorts/ a singlet (which for me appears to be at around anything 19 celcius +… very sensitive to heat, don’t mind cold at all)

I’m fine walking around without a jacket below freezing, below -5 though and I need a scarf, large jacket and the likes (wild chill plays a large factor though, it could be 4-5 degrees with a wind chill of -8 and I’d need to be bundled up.)

The hell is wrong with you? Also in the south of england, and in what way is cold, dark and wet optimum? (for weather atleast )

[unreal24278]

Idk, I just love cold, damp cool conditions. It’s the same where I live a lot of the time

In the south of England because that’s where my flight landed. Will probably go down to Camden tomorrow. Going out tonight by myself, if I don’t have people to have fun with at the time I create my own. I believe Amon Amarth is showing here in two days, so I’ll certainly be there

I pefer snow the most out of all conditions.

[liverpool_96]

just be glad you’re not up in Aberdeen, it’s bloody freezing!

[studhammer]

The difference between Dallas and say San Antonio are huge in culture, etc. If you like the ocean, you might like the Houston area.

The only large city in west Texas is El Paso and I wouldn’t suggest you looking there. On the Mexico border.

Basically it’s a metropolis between San Antonio and Austin, a distance of about 100 miles

Edit: You should check out MD Anderson Hospital. It’s huge and basically a city within a city. Tons of research positions

[iron_yuppie]

Houston is oppressively hot. Went there in December years ago for a conference and it was still like 88°. Brutal. Had friends who lived in west Texas and Ohio was a real shock to them when they came up here. Dallas was awesome. Loved the weather, the people, and the general vibe. Texas is like its own country with how different each area is. Probably the second best place in this country as far as I’m concerned. If I didn’t love home so much I would 100% move to Texas.
