guys 6-oxo isnt a standalone pct on anything that is a true ph.


There's plenty of prohormones currenty on the market where 6-OXO is more than enough for PCT to supress estrogen.

If you were to suggest that everyone takes breast cancer drugs that kill estrogen dead at the receptor after taking any kind of PH; this would be bad advice and serious blanket overkill.





please! prohormones by definition are a precursor to hormones (testosterone in this case); so for someone like u who seems lacking in knowledge of such things, basically their this stuff that when metabolised they find this little missing piece called an atom and then by the graces of god they are converted into hormones; so lets summarize ph + enzymes = steroids = pct involving an atd or serm. btw prohormones are currently illegal in the us and anything thats one the market now, isn't a prohormone. actually its easier to find oral steroids then pH's (all those sd rip offs). its one thing to give bad advice when it comes to creatine or something, but leave serious stuff like this to ppl that know. also i just enjoyed your thoughts on nolva literally killing estrogen.

-seacrest out.


Please, spare me your schooling of "What are prohormones?" sunshine and take a seat...

I recommend that you research the function of estrogen in the human body and it's positive role in hypertrophy to gain an understanding of why it's often a disadvantage to run less potent PH's going overkill on certain anti-estrogen drugs during PCT as well as the availability of designer PH's and free form powders for transdermal use in other countries, before letting your jaw rattle. I don't care what's on the shelves at your "Walmart" or "GNC", nor do I care for your delusional attempts at schooling me, so remain seated and rise only when you've something productive to bring to the table, or my food...

It might have been a good idea to elect a particular PH and dosage as a base of argument, though since you lack in logical thinking I'll leave you to stew in your own mess.

In answer to psamls, yes additional supplements are required to encourage natural test production besides 6-OXO. My point is that 6-OXO alone is suitable for the purpose of supressing estrogen for what are "weak prohormones" (In relation to others which require more strict PCT). If you think that every PH at any dose causes the same degree of shutdown and androgenic effect as the next then you are seriously misinformed...

Running a less potent PH and running a potent anti-e during PCT is not the way to go. "Total recovery" depends upon hormone (test and estrogen) ratio being brought back to baseline levels. It's not a case of supressing estrogen for an unjustified, prolonged period of time by means of the most potent anti-e available. The use of PCT supps / drugs are dictated by the PH cycle itself and personal response to each.

To the original poster; as stated above,  it isn't a case of "WHAT'S THE BEST?" You might want to do a little more research and assess your training...

chill out fresha my whole point is to discourage people that are misinformed from thinking they can take four weeks of a PH ( some of which are actually PS, and AS's) and then PCT w/ 6-oxo w/o anything else (even supports supps). There are tons of kids on this board and they hear you telling them 6-oxo well suffice they will stop reading right there. Im merely stating that if someone runs a PH please do it properly. AGAIN, I have listed a legal PCT that I firmly belive is the best and required for almost all PH cycles. Here it is again:

AX advanced PCT
AX Rebount XT
Novedex XT
Animal Stak II
Plus supports supps (ie milk thistle, fenugreek, hawthorne berries .....to name a few)
(PCT cost about 4x more than the actual PH)

As far as pulse cycling is concerned its honestly something I havnt done a lot of research on but Ive heard that the body doesnt shutdown like it does on a continuous cycle.

Also I see people attacking me for sayin that Nolva and Clomid are extreme. Nolva and Clomid are ness. in the cases where serious PH are used (the ones that give you good results) Superdrol (and all the rip-offs), and Halodrol-50 (and all the rip-offs).

so whats the point of taking a so called weak pH, messing with natural test production so u can gain 2-3 extra pounds just doesn't make sense to me. regarding my credibility, i would think getting into med school would have been enough cred for an internet forum or maybe u should go get a degree in chemisty; anyone can repeat crap they read on wikipedia.

I think at 165 you still have a lot of natural gains to make. Ultimetely it's your choice though. Just realize getting into phs requires a lot of research, not just listening to what someone on a forum tells you. Personally I'm going to wait about 8 months till I get to 21 and then run epistane. Which is not a weak ph, I think that'd be the most effective way to go, maybe do a pulse cycle so I'd know I wouldn't need prescribtion pct.
To be honest with you the nha stacks seem hela overpriced to me for the gains you'll get. I would just do a test booster now if I were you, like hyperdrol or jungle warfare.

Tell that to  "the kids"...

On the contrary however, the lesser potent PH's aren't likely to shut down natural test production to the extent of more potent PH's in the same way they aren't likely to elevate estrogen to counter the unbalanced hormonal ratio.

No "cred" here chap. You could be jesus himself and I'd still question your words to the very last letter.

Many thanks for the latter compliment...

Weak PH.... LOL

Thats like saying Freindly Lukemia.

If you take any PROHORMONE, you are going to suppress you HPTA.  You most likely will have some form of shutdown, and your body will not on its own be able to restore its testosterone levels back to normal, and even if can, your estrogen will still be high due to the attempt of the body to create equilibrium when you started pumping synthetic hormones into your body.  Your testosterone goes up, your estrogen goes up, but when your test. drops after you cycle off your PH/AAS, your estrogen is going to stay up.  ATD is not going to cure this problem.  You need a SERM, AND an AI.  Not just an AI.

Methyl 1 d = good stuff, took it for 6 weeks standalone and gained about 14 pounds, lost .03 % bodyfat too :)

Oral turinadrol by Jauggernaut nutrition to me looks like a Halodrol 50 clone, I may be mistaken though.

3AD is the same compound as 11-oxo.  I believe these are both "androstanes".  Im not positive about this, but this is what I believe they are.  If this is the case, they are also in the same family as Liquid Masterdrol.  Which actually are pretty anabolic, only downside is that they are VERY androgenic.

Methyl 3- d??????? what is that?

As far as i know, mass tabs is just a tablet full of test boosters.  But this Stenbelone it claims to have makes me wonder.  As far as I know, stenbelone is a steroid.

Novedex xt is ATD and a few other goodies.  Its a great AI, but not a ph in any way.  Stacked with some DHEA its said to synergize well and cause some decent muscle gains.

"Weak PH" is no more funny than a "0.3% drop in bodyfat", "Max Curling" hormone consuming 18 year old boy.....

It's good to see you were raised with the taboos in their correct place.

Your points have already been established. It might do you justice to not re-iterate information that has already been mentioned. If test isn't raised significantly then estrogen isn't raised to a degree of having to take, or consider taking more potent anti-e's (beyond that of 6-OXO for example) in an attempt to balance a minor disrupted hormone ratio.

The PCT estrogen "dump" is dependant upon the dosage and duration of the PH cycle. The high levels of estrogen left (in relation to test) by the abundance of natutral test can be countered in many situations to an extent with a weaker anti-e supplement (as opposed to Tamoxifen). As mentioned this depends upon the PH, dosage and duration, which directly dictates the degree of natural hormone manipulation.

I look forward to viewing at least one of your posts in the training forum, which co-incidentally should be your primary focus....

Phs at 18? Good job.
Don't give me all this bs about needing Nova for any cycle. 3ad=11oxo. The chemist that designed 11oxo andrenosterone, Patrick Arnold himself says 6-oxo is enough for a pct with these even at higher dosages of 600mg-1000mg because it's so minimaly supressive. Running nolva with this would be downright stupid, not to mention it's illegal.
Mass tabs is most definitely a ph not a test booster.

Serms themselves shouldn't be taken lightly.

What about pulse cycling? Minimal to no shutdown with most apperently. You can easilly use an otc pct.
I was reading up on pulse cycling havoc.

I should have said weak pro steroid I guess. But the companies themselves are recommending just something like novadex xt with 3ad and furazadrol.

It's kind of ironic to me. Here you can order these products that are basically legal steroids, but some people say you MUST have nolva/clomid. But those are illegal. Plus they can have some serious sides, way more then anything like furazadrol. Like loss of vision or cancer? Damn.


I dont know where you get your information but steroids dont cause cancer.

Easy does it fresh, I was in NO way attacking you or trying to offend you.  I was not at all trying to poke fun at what you wrote either.  I was just making a simple post of my views on different things that were said.  Also, I am in NO way saying that I know more about prohormones than you either.  You are correct again though, it was foolish of my hormone consuming, max curling, .3% bodyfat dropping, boyish self to not read the entire thread before posting.  I do apologize. 

Oh, and why is it you feel nescesary to tell me what my primary focus should be on.  Just figure I'd let you know that my main focus IS on my diet and training.  Im going to college for an Exercise Science major, and I have been spending the last year studying the A.C.E Personal Training Manual so I may attempt to try to pass the exam my school offers to become A.C.E certified this upcomming November. 

I choose not to post in the Training forum because quite frankly, I am not all too interested in posting there.  I do read quite a bit from the forum though, learn some good stuff :)

I apologize if I offended you with my post(s), and I will once again reiterate something already mentioned and let you know that this hormone consuming boy was NOT in any way trying to offend you or challenge  your knowlege which im sure is much more extensive than mine.

I got some fat free, sodium free poppyseed dressing I can add into your tuna if you'd like, its only 15 calories..... :)

I wish people would spend more time energy and research on training protocols, non hormonal supplementation, and build a foundation than to constantly jump on the designer steroid of the month campaign in their quest for the next ten lbs of muscle.  Come close to your maximal genetic potential before you even begin to think about designer steroids.  I hate the use of the phrase pro hormones.  These are steroids on the market now

If you are not benching your bodyweight or more, if you can't do 2 times your weigh in the squat/deadlift than take your protein and creatine until you can and stop looking for the magic bullet.  I was lifting for 2o freaking years before prohormones came on the market and even then I waited to use them...............Just seems that any supplement with a DROL on the end is the only thing people want to talk about nowSmile

I agree with you njmuscle.

Though i am only eighteen and have been training for about 2 1/2 years, not once has it crossed my mind that I need a prohormone to put on some weight.  I think the big problem is the impatient newcomers wanting to put on muscle fast and thinking that prohormones is the easy way to do it.  I frequently hear kid in school or the gym saying how they have begun taking prohormones because of the ads in the magazines and they feel that they will surpass everyone in their strength and mass gains.  Basically, its just a matter of them being impatient, misinformed, or uneducated (concerning supplementation).

I completely agree with the both of you...im more then happy that I changed my mind from taking a ph..i have been working out for 2 yrs, and can bench 80lbs over my weight, squat 145lbs over my weight and dead 155lbs over my weight and I realized I did all of that without a hormonal supplement...def. not needed unless you want that extra edge and your looking into serious research about ph's...

But how do you know when you hit that genetic limit? I mean I made some good progress, but I think there's just no way I can maintain a 6 pack and weight 180-190, no matter my diet. Would it be best for me to wait till I'm 21, or does it matter that much, I mean you see countless guys trying it at an earlier age. Also how do you feel about the pulse cycling idea?
It's just rediculous how quickly the guys on ph gain, one went from 140 to about 200 in like 6 months. But when I saw him now, he weights less then me.

But how do you know when you hit that genetic limit? I mean I made some good progress, but I think there's just no way I can maintain a 6 pack and weight 180-190, no matter my diet. Would it be best for me to wait till I'm 21, or does it matter that much, I mean you see countless guys trying it at an earlier age. Also how do you feel about the pulse cycling idea?
It's just rediculous how quickly the guys on ph gain, one went from 140 to about 200 in like 6 months. But when I saw him now, he weights less then me.



Well at 5'10 I would say your genetic limit is certainly not 183.  Start walking around at 220-225 and than I would start to believe you are pushing the envelopeSmile

Plus I would look at some quanitifable measures.  2-2.5  times or more bodyweight for a movement like squat or deadliftsis a good challenging but obtainable goal without the use of steroids.

Not sure what you mean by not being able to keep a six pack no matter your diet?  Get your bodyfat low enough and you will have abs-it is as simple as that.  You think a PH cycle is going to strip fat off of you?

I have heard about the pulse cycle on others boards but really have no opinion on it nor is it something I can venture an opinion on.

As for people looking like crap after working out I think you gave yourself the ONLY answer you need.  You need to build a foundation.  You need to enjoy working out if it is going to be a lifetime activity.  Wanting to be a bad ass in high school or college is not what is going to have you pushing the iron until you are in your forties and fifties.

Additionally people better learn how to train with out these products because I would say in the next couple years they will be gone.  With what is going on with the FDA and the restriction on Chinese exports of the raws-the end is near
