My boy is running a cycle of just Sust.. to gain some mass and get his muscles to start some good growth... He is on his third week and has noticed a few pounds gain and some water weight.. Whats the best thing to help keep down water reten... when cycling gear that causes water ret...
thanks for the info fellaz....
Armidex is the best to take during a cycle to lower the conversion, thus, lowering water retention. It should harden him up too. Many take nolva (its a SERM) during but it's far best to keep that for PCT and avoid prolonged use. I don't know his dosage but I assume about 400-500mg per week. If that is the case a daily dose of 0.5mg should be good.
Other great thing to use to harden you up is proviron. It really makes the difference. I imagine even just 50mg of pro per day (am/pm) would do what he needs but the armidex would be best. I have pasted some info on proviron below.
"Proviron, an anabolic steroid, is particularly interesting. I suspect that it not only acts as an antiaromatase but in an unknown DHT-like anti-estrogenic manner. This might involve estrogen receptor downregulation for example. In any case, aromatase inhibition and/or Clomid don’t seem to give the same effect on appearance and muscle hardness as when Proviron is included.
This drug has good binding to the androgen receptor, but in muscle tissue most of it never reaches the androgen receptor because it is enzymatically converted to the diol. Thus, it is not an effective anabolic. It is somewhat effective as an anti-gyno agent, however, and appears to reduce estrogenic bloating if that problem exists.
Proviron reduces either levels of estrogen or the effect of estrogen. Thus, it is useful for avoiding gynecomastia, although it probably should not be relied upon as the sole drug for that. It is not hepatotoxic. It has the usual side effects of anabolic/androgenic steroids, with the added effect that it is particularly prone to cause erections."
Hope it helps
