I did a search in the archives and read a lot of opinions from different guys. I dont want to start another long ass thread basically stating what everyone thinks is best, so I'm asking the mods and vets. The subject...dbol dosing. Reference: Anabolic Steroid Reference Manual "Anabolics 2000", page 73, last paragraph. Opinions and experience please... Yes, I'm intentionally not stating what it says to cut down on opinions that have no experimentation behind them. ------------------     | ||

Ok Conan, I guess I will have to type it out then. Keep in mind everyone I'm only looking for experiences, not opinions. In the past I have taken dbol spread throughout the day and I know the effect. Quote: "The half-life of Dianabol is only about 3 to 5 hours, a relatively short time. This means that a single daily dosage schedule will produce a varying blood level, with ups and downs throughout the day. The user likewise has a choice, to either split up the tablets during the day or to take them all at one time. The usual recommendation has been to divide them and try to regulate the concentration in your blood. This however, will produce a lower peak blood level than if the tablets were taken all at once, so there may be a trade off with this option. The steroid researcher Bill Roberts also points out that a single-episode dosing schedule should have a less dramatic impact on the hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular axis, as there is a sufficient period each day where steroid hormone levels are not extremely exaggerated. This, combined with anecdotal evidence, suggests that the practice of divided dosing might actually turn out to be slightly less successful in terms of overall muscle gain. Many have experimented with good success using a once-per-day schedule with this steroid, so perhaps this is a better option. Since we know the blood concentration will peak about 1.5 to 3 hours after administration, we may further wish to choose the best time to take our tablets. It seems logical that taking the pills earlier in the day, preferably some time before training, would be optimal. This would allow a considerable number of daytime hours for an androgen rich metabolism to heighten the uptake of nutrients, especially the critical hours following a training session." End Quote. Whew...lot of typing you made me do Conan! ------------------ | ||

That's an interesting theory. I suppose personal experience would be the best way to find out. ------------------ [email protected]

I have been preaching the 1 dose theory for months. I have had 3 or 4 friends that do d-bol all the time and they told me 1 dose worked much better and less of a crash ------------------ "Catch a man a fish, he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish, and he eats for a lifetime." | ||

Lawnsaver, from reading past archives, you are the only person I have found with any experience with one-a-day dbol dosing. It looks like I may just have to try it for myself and then report it. I wont start my cycle until 1 March however. ------------------ | ||

I'm doing the Bill Roberts d-bol AM only thing (on clomid too) to come off my cycle, and am pretty pleased with the results. My nuts are back and I've actually gotten stronger in the last few weeks. I wonder how much of the d-bol your body can absorb at 1 time though (would you be more likely to just piss it out)? | ||

I usually hit 2 divided doses. But my 1st ever cycle was dbol, I took 8 tab per day, all at once, got damned good results. | ||

I cannot give you my experience. What I can say is that theory works great on a dbol only cycle. However when using other steroids such as test, you are going to be shutting down natural production anyway and then using dbol in such a way may be less beneficial than splitting throughout the day. Also a short cycle, say 6 weeks where you are using dbol for the whole length of the cycle then this all at once method also has its benefits, however if its not a dbol only cycle then you only need to use all at once in the last week. This will help to bring natural test levels back up during the long gap between one dose of dbol one day and the next the following day. Sorry to give you an opinion instead of experience. ------------------ | ||

I will tell you what I know from my personal experience: I have done it 3 ways: 1) taking it every 4 hours: didnt like it the gains were good though, but it was a hastle and during work hours a pain in the arse. I dont like luggin steroids with me everywhere I go, and I dont enjoy waking up in the middle of the night. If you like this theory than I suggest at least get your full nights sleep over tkain 5-10mgs of dbol. 2) Taking it all at once, no noticable difference in gains, easier to take, though the pumps werent as big as I have experienced (Im sure taking all 1hr before your workout would change that though). I tend to think this way isnt the best for your body or gains. 3)Taking 2 to 3 times a day at stratigic points throughout the day. This was/is my favorite. I would take them upon going to sleep (usually about 4 hours or so after I wind up lifting), then 1.5 hrs before my workout, and upon waking in the morning. So I took it 3 times throughout the day, before the workout for the pumps, and the ther two to spread it out a bit. I liked this the best. ------------------ For a good time click here: Search and Profiles (300Kleens Board) | ||

Thanks for your opinion IG. What you said does make total sense. That should definitely help those thinking about a dbol only cycle. I hope some guys read this thread and pick that up. Thanks alot for sharing your experiences Slopain, that's definitely what I was looking for. ------------------ |
