Your Take on Winny Post-Cycle?

Pharma / TRT

I have read that Winstrol, when used post-cycle, can help ‘solidify’ gains as well as help be used as an anti-estrogen during PCT. And since Winny doesn’t aromatize, wouldn’t one be able to stop using Winny and keep their gains once PCT is over? Just a sample cycle that uses the Winstrol to help illustrate:

Week 1 - 12: Test Enth 500mg/Week
Week 12 - 15: HCG 3000 IU E5D twice, then 150 IU 5 days later, and 1500 IU 6 days later
Week 14 - 18: Winstrol 50 mg/ED (not sure if this should be tapered)
Week 14 - 18: Nolvadex 40 mg/ED, tapered off slowly

This might help:

Winny, in bodybuilding circles at least, is used mostly during cutting cycles to maintain mass. Winstrol, like a DHT compound also gives a distinct increase in muscle hardness and striations in people with a low body-fat percentage. This lends further credence that it too may be a an anti-estrogen. But most likely it has more to do with the overall lower levels of circulating estrogen. Winny is also quite effective at promoting strength because it binds very well at the androgen receptor. Short term stanozolol use can promote drastic strength, a feat often employed early in a bulking cycle (although d-bol would be more suited in that case) or late in a cutting cycle to prevent a decrease in performance. This combined with the red blood cell count-stimulating properties of its androgen affinity make it popular among track athletes as well in order to beget better results.

And…

There is no need for an anti-estrogen as Winny may have such a property of its own and does not aromatize at any rate. The only counter-indication with Winny would perhaps be an anti-hypertensive if you use for a longer stack. Be sure to get liver values checked if you use for longer than 6 weeks on end. There is no real use for Clomid or Nolva post-cycle for Winny specifically since there is no post-cycle aromatisation to cause negative feedback. That makes whatever gains you made on Winny quite easy to maintain.

Would something like using Winstrol during PCT work to help keep most of the gains from a stack?

Winstrol during PCT would keep you in a shut-down state, thus negating the entire purpose of PCT.

You might be able to get away with it in small doses during the stasis period of a taper, but I wouldn’t bother with it for a ‘conventional’ PCT. I think some people around here have started using masteron (or at least talked about it,) like this. You might want to look into that.

Using it like that will just keep you shut down. I use it for 4 weeks at the end of a cycle, the last two weeks of injections and then 2 weeks alone. Then I take a week off then into PCT. The winstrol hardens me like no other compound. Be carefull though as I have gotten older it really can make me brittle. Don’t get me wrong, I really love the stuff LOL.

What do you mean, make you brittle?

I wouldnt go that route with the winstrol or use those extreme high doses of hcg post cycle either.

If you want to run the winstrol use it the last 4-6 weeks for its effects on sbhg.

On 500mg/wk test I personally wouldnt use hcg at all, however if you to incorporate it then run it at something like 250iu 2x/wk throughout the cycle itself.
