This is a blend of four different steroids:
Testosterone
propionate: 30 mg stays active for 3-4 days
Testosterone Phenylpropionate:
60 mg active 1-3 weeks
Testosterone Isocaporate: 60 mg active 1-3 weeks
Testosterone decanotate: 100 mg active 2-4 weeks
Sustanon 250 is an oil-based
injectable containing four different testosterone compounds. The mixture of the
testosterones are time-released to provide an immediate effect while still
remaining active in the body for up to a month. As with other testosterones,
Sustanon is an androgenic steroid with a pronounced anabolic effect.
Therefore, athletes commonly use Sustanon to put on mass and size while increasing
strength. However, unlike other testosterone compounds such as cypionate
and enanthate, the use of Sustanon leads
to less water retention and estrogenic side effects. This characteristic
is extremely beneficial to bodybuilders who suffer from gynecomastia yet still
seek the powerful anabolic effect of an injectable testosterone. The decreased
water retention also makes Sustanon a desirable steroid for bodybuilders and
athletes interested in cutting up or building a solid foundation of quality
mass.
Dosages of Sustanon range from 250 mg every other week, up to 2000
mg or more per week. These dosages seem to be the extremes. A more common dosage
would range from 250 mg to 1000 mg per week. Although Sustanon remains active
for up to a month, injections should be taken at least once a week to keep
testosterone levels stable.
A
steroid novice can expect to gain about 20 pounds within a couple of months by
using only 250 mg of Sustanon a week. More advanced athletes will
obviously need higher dosages to obtain the desired effect. Sustanon is a fairly
safe steroid, but in high dosages, some athletes may experience side effects due
to an elevated estrogen level. With dosages exceeding 1000 mg a week, it is probably wise to use an antiestrogen
such as Nolvadex(tamoxifen citrate) or Proviron(mesterolone).
The use of Sustanon will
suppress natural testosterone production, so the use of HCG(human chorionic
gonadotropin) or Clomid(clomiphene citrate) may be appropriate at the end of a
cycle. Sustanon 250 is a good base steroid to use in a stack. Athletes
interested in rapid size and strength gains find that Sustanon stacks extremely
well with orals such as Anadrol(oxymetholone) and Dianabol(methandrostenlone).
On the other hand, Sustanon also stacks well with Parabolan (trenbolone
hexahydrobencylcarbonate), Masteron (drostanolone propionate), and Winstrol
(stanozolol) for athletes seeking the hard, ripped look. Sustanon 250 is quite
abundant on the US black market.
One of the more common versions is the
Russian Sustanon 250 manufactured in India (Karachi). Thousands of these amps
are smuggled into the East Coast of the United States where they are then made
readily available to bodybuilders. Average price is around $18/amp.
