This is the epitomy of a mass stack, known as the bread and butter cycle. Testosterone here can indicate any long-acting testosterone ester such as testosterone enanthate, testosterone cypionate or sustanon 250. The dianabol is kept at 6 weeks due to its liver toxicity and added at the beginning of the cycle to boost strength and gains before the injectables start showing most of their merit, around week 3 or 4. All three compounds aromatize at some rate and Deca's progestagenic activity may agonize estrogenic side-effects, so its wise to keep Nolvadex on hand. At the sign of itchy or lumpy nipples, using 20 mg per day until problem subsides is enough. Nolvadex also has a stronger affinity for the estrogen receptor than clomid, eventhough they are similar compounds. So its actually preferred if you use Nolvadex post-cycle to bring back natural test. Its further obsolete to get clomid since you need Nolva on hand anyway, so you have it lying around. Starting at 40 mg and tapering to 20 over 4 weeks will boost natural testosterone after your stack to help you retain gains, because of the blocking of negative feedback mechanisms.

The stack is known for its incredible mass results and is employed by beginners and veterans alike. Beginners would probably consider lowering the dose, in which case its advised to lower the Deca to 200 mg/week instead of 400, rather than lowering testosterone which is the main compound here. Veterans would also note to keep Deca at 400 mg, but if need be increase the dosage of testosterone primarily (to 750 or 1000 mg/week) and if still needed bumping d-bol to 40-50 mg/week. At that point the need for Nolva is an absolute fact.

In this stack I personally would change the deca-durabolin at 200-400 mg per week to equipoise at 400 mg/week because it's a stronger and safer compound that doesn't allow for as much water retention or fat gain. The bulk noticed with Deca is a lot more impressive though.

8	300-400 mg/week	25-50 mg every (other) day	50-100 mg/day
9	300-400 mg/week	25-50 mg every (other) day	50-100 mg/day
10	300-400 mg/week	25-50 mg every (other) day	50-100 mg/day

Very effective cutting cycle. Beginners would start at 300 mg a week for equipoise or may even wish to consider using Methenolone (Primobolan) instead at 300-400 mg a week, since methenolone does not aromatize. Most people with a little experience will prefer Boldenone (equipoise) because it has better gains and the minor aromatization would cause no problems on a large frame. Note that if you do opt for methenolone, the use of mesterolone (Proviron) near the end of a stack is no longer needed at all. The Winstrol dose is your biggest concern. If you inject I would say regardless of anything, use 50 mg every other day. Only people with a certain mass would use 50 mg every day. If you ingest, I would say either 25-50 mg every day for beginners or 50 mg every day for veterans. I wouldn't go any higher with the use of Winstrol at 8 weeks due to hepatoxicity. If more is needed, increasing equipoise makes more sense. Adding the proviron at the end will totally block any form of aromatization from the equipoise and free more of the stuff up because it has a high affinity for sex-hormone binding structures. It also offers a distinct hardness, which, in conjunction with Winny, should give you the cuts of a life-time as you progress towards the end of a cycle.

Needless to say the fat-reducing effect of steroids is not all that great, to get the results you need in terms of losing body-fat a diet and some cardio will be needed, perhaps the use of analog fat-burning compounds such as ECA, Cytomel or clenbuterol.

Lean Mass Cycle / Alternate Cutting Cycle

1		300-400 mg/week
2		300-400 mg/week
3	75-76 mg every other day	300-400 mg/week
4	75-76 mg every other day	300-400 mg/week
8	75-76 mg every other day	300-400 mg/week
6	75-76 mg every other day	300-400 mg/week
7	75-76 mg every other day	300-400 mg/week
8	75-76 mg every other day	300-400 mg/week
9	75-76 mg every other day	300-400 mg/week
10	75-76 mg every other day	300-400 mg/week

Very good for adding some lean mass for most beginners and intermediate users. Vets would note this is a great stack for cutting as well. For intermediates and vets it may have more use to substitute Primobolan for Equipoise to get some mild aromatisation in there. The doses of Trenbolone depend on the compound of course, since Parabolan comes in vials of 76 mg. But assuming you dissolved your fina evenly, 75 mg makes more sense there. Later on I will have a stack that demonstrates the use of HCG as well, this could be beneficial here as this can be quite suppressive, but Clomid/Nolva would have very limited use since the cause of the HPTA suppression isn't post-cycle estrogen.

I'm a member at several online steroid boards and you always hear the vets say: "Don't use only orals, your gains won't last". Here's a newsflash: the roids you take orally are no different from the ones you inject. Naturally I need to add here that you will get better gains with injectables. The half-life is longer, they can be used longer because they aren't so toxic, they can be used in higher doses and the effects stay for a while after a cycle (which could account for the belief that gains on orals disappear). But I'd like to know where the belief that an oral only stack can't offer good gains originated? A lot of bodybuilders in the 60's and 70's were basically living off dianabol. The key to keeping gains on any stack is facilitating the return of natural test after a stack and keeping calories high in your diet no matter what.

The problem of an oral only stack is that its limited in time. 6-8 weeks at best. Meaning multiple stacks are needed where less stacks would be needed with injectables. An oral only stack is hard to set up because you have no real base compounds either. This is one I sweated out after much thinking for all you wimps that can't take a needle. Because anavar and winny block the aromatisation off d-bol, there isn't much post-cycle estrogen so the use of clomid/Nolva afterwards is limited but still advised. It should be started immediately after the cycle is over. With lon-acting injectables one can usually wait 1.5 to 2 weeks after last shot to start post-cycle therapy and then still there is a certain level of androgens in the body. With the orals, most of the androgen will be cleared in 1-2 days tops. So Clomid/Nolva therapy needs to start immediately. Here it is illustrated with 40 and 20 mg of Nolva, but could easily be run with 150 and 100 mg of clomid respectively. This was a good stack to demonstrate the use of HCG (which is injectable. Oh the irony). At least one of the uses. HCG keeps the size of your nuts up even after HPTA is shut down by your roids. That facilitates post-cycle recovery. Since HCG itself can cause negative feedback it needs to be discontinued the week before you come off or it will do the opposite of what it is intended to do. NEVER run HCG longer than Nolva or clomid. One should take a long break off any type of 17-alpha-alkylated steroids after this cycle as the liver will have taken a severe beating. That's the downside of being scared of needles.

This is a relatively safe cycle, another question I get asked more than I care to be asked, since with steroids its always either gains or reducing the risk, but you can't have both. This cycle uses two orals that are relatively safe, both the anavar and the primo are not particularly suppressive of natural testosterone and with the andriol being fairly controllable, especially in these doses, side-effects should remain to a minimum. If we drop the andriol and use the low end of doses for the primo and anavar, this may be a good potential cycle for a top-level female athlete (for the record, I don't believe in women having to use anabolics). Don't expect any major mass gains from a cycle like this, in fact even at the high doses a male shouldn't expect any nominal increase in mass from this, it may not even be a very successful cutting cycle. All it really is, is safe.

The post-cycle therapy here clearly demonstrates the alternate use of HCG, where it is started at the end of the cycle and continued some time to allow the functioning of the HPTA to resume and increase testicles size slightly again. 1.5 to 2 weeks after the last injection of the long acting primo (enanthate) depot, Nolvadex therapy is started. Note that HCG is always discontinued at least 2 weeks prior to finishing Nolva as it is A) suppressive or natural testosterone itself and B) produces estrogen in the testicles through aromatization. HCG and Nolva are two things that are must have in post-cycle therapy, but they should be used properly.
