As one of the most popular testosterones on the planet, blended testosterone (Sustanon 250) has changed the rules of the game in the world of bodybuilding and testosterone therapy.
The vast majority of testosterone compounds are traditional single ester elements, but Sustanon 250 has the unique property of being a blend of four different esters (esters are carbon chains attached to the testosterone molecule that slow the release of the hormone in the body).
Sustanon 250 has also quickly become a solution for bodybuilders and other athletes and fitness enthusiasts to enhance their overall performance.
Sustanon 250 can utilize a variety of esters of different sizes, but the use of small and large esters creates a unique problem: total testosterone levels will rise and then drop sporadically or unpredictably.
This erratic result can be disastrous for athletes or bodybuilders, so when using Sustanon 250, you must control the interval between injections to ensure that the testosterone levels of all four esters reach the “peak” at the same time. Three injections per week usually achieve the desired goal, but injections every other day will produce more reliable results.
It is generally well tolerated and is widely considered to be the best choice for steroid novices in their first cycle, and provides a perfect base compound for experienced bodybuilders when stacking multiple hormones together.
Although results vary from person to person and depend on many other variables (personal genetics, training foundation, diet and training execution, endurance and willpower), we can reasonably expect testosterone to lead to significant increases in muscle size and strength.
For those who are new to anabolic steroids and aim to increase muscle mass, Sustanon 250 can increase body weight by 10-20 pounds in a cycle, and at least maintain about half of the muscle mass after the cycle stops and hormone levels return to normal.
Sustanon 250 is composed of four esters of different sizes. Different testosterone esters provide different half-lives. They need to be combined in a very precise way to produce the desired effect. As long as any one of the esters is unbalanced, the advantages of Sustanon 250 cannot be exerted.
Sustanon 250 Composition:
30 mg propionate
60 mg phenylpropionate
60 mg isocaproate
100 mg decanoate
Sustanon 250 is a versatile hormone suitable for both muscle building and fat loss cycles. It is the perfect foundation when stacking with other anabolic steroids. It is unique in that it allows its four esters to work synergistically with each other to produce fantastic results.
Sustanon 250 has an anabolic/androgenic ratio of 100/100, and is also considered by many to be the most versatile of all the steroids available on the planet today.
In addition, Sustanon 250 is also one of the most flexible types of all steroid options on the market today. The purpose of use can revolve around athletic ability (muscular endurance and strength), pure muscle building, and fat loss/preparation.
For men, Sustanon 250, like other testosterone products, can greatly promote the growth of muscle tissue, increase the nitrogen retention capacity of muscle tissue, greatly improve muscle endurance and recovery speed, and protect muscles from breakdown when facing various stresses.
If women (whether they are athletes or bodybuilders) have to use testosterone, monoester solutions are safer and more reliable. Strong, potent steroids like Sustanon 250 can cause some significant side effects that last a lifetime.
Sustanon 250 Side Effects (for reference only, depending on dosage and individual circumstances)
First, androgen-related side effects including oily skin, acne, accelerated balding, and increased aggressiveness are common.
Like all hormones, tolerance varies from person to person, and one’s sensitivity can usually only be properly observed/measured at the beginning of a cycle.
That said, if you are particularly prone to acne or have male pattern baldness characteristics (genetic or otherwise), Sustanon 250 and other androgenic steroids may exacerbate this condition.
Another potential adverse side effect is that estrogen levels will inevitably rise during a Sustanon 250 cycle due to the aromatization of testosterone to estrogen.
Increased estrogen levels can lead to increased water retention and Gynecomstia (male breast development), the initial stages of which usually involve itching or pain in the nipple, which will later develop into a noticeable mass of tissue behind (or close to) the nipple.
If left unchecked, the tissue will continue to build up and can only be corrected surgically.
Sustanon 250 is not recommended if you have any of the conditions highlighted below
- High blood pressure
- High cholesterol levels
- Prostate enlargement or high PSA
- Other more serious symptoms of unhealthy conditions
