I haven't used it, but, I don't know how good of an idea it is to inject something that is going to just sit in the muscle for a long, long time. It also hasn't been around that long so no one knows the long term effects. To me, it's not even an option... ------------------ | ||

Synthol is mct oil that will your body will metabolize over time. I've read that it takes 3 to 5 years to clear. It is basically food. I am currently pumping my calves full of the stuff. I'll tell you, calves are painful as hell to do. The first thing I learned is that you should boil your bottle of pump and pose to kill any bacteria that may be living in there. Remember, it is food and bacteria will live and grow in there. I ended up with an ifection the first two weeks. Flu like symptoms, fever, massive swelling in both calves, limping, pain. It got much better after we boiled the bottle. When you inject to stuff you will experience a mild shock. You will turn white, sweat, and generally feel like shit. The good news is that it only lasts for about 10 minutes. At this point you need muscle relaxers,and some pain killers. It will be tough to walk for about 24 hours. You don't want to be at a job where you are on your feet all day long. I'm on my fourth week of weekly injections and they are much easier to take now. The first two sucked bad. On a positive note, my calves look dramatically different. I mean holy shit different!! I have a serious outer head now. You can inject precisely where you want the size to be and there you go. The stuff turned my narrow calves into broad diamond shaped calves that are thicker. Was it worth it? Fuck yes!! Welcome to bodybuilding, be ready for the pain. Peace | ||

Iron..have you had any problems with the symmetry of your calves since you've been injecting the synthol. In other words, I am assuming that if you don't hit near the same area on the other calve, then it is possible they they will be disproportionate?

I read that 1 the size gain is perm. 2 however, it will weaken the muscle that its used on. Can you answer this | ||
Cool Novice Posts: 15 |
Good question. It is a good idea to use a felt tip pen to mark the spot on each of your calves. Of cours, inject the same amount into each head. As far as weakening the muscles I don't think so. The theory also goes that with the expansion of the sheath around your muscle it gives your muscle cell room to grow. Possibly giving you added natural growth. Thats just a theory. | ||

Thanks Iron..I am thinking of using in my calves also, but also heard that the shots are extremely painful. But its a small price to pay when you have lagging calves. What size needle do you use for your injections? I am assuming that Synthol is a pretty thick solution? | ||

Amateur Bodybuilder Posts: 56 |
iron slinger- a few questions for ya! I just took my first synthol injections last 2 days back. the biceps were not a problem. however, when i injected the triceps, there was massive bleeding. at first i wasnt worried because i figured i just went through the vein, but then large swelling occurred (which actually went away after a few hours). could the swelling have occurred because i injected the synthol too quickly? i used a slow injection for the biceps, but a quick one for the tricep. 2nd question. how do you boil & for how long? do you just stick the PNP in a bowl of water & boil on high for about 15 minutes? d*mn...i had another question too, but just forgot it. it'll come to me. ------------------ | ||

Your better off getting Esiclene if you can get it. It will definitely give you an edge!! | ||
Amateur Bodybuilder Posts: 163 |
burns like a MF'er and besides you have to go way deep into the muscle or its not effective...so try not to miss the spot. | ||

Hey, can I inject this Synthol into my penis to make it look bigger? | ||
Elite Bodybuilder Posts: 1184 |
Yep I am 18... Sometimes i get massive bleeding ot of my tri's... Its a pain in the ass... I think its because sometimes i move the pin around too much when it is in... Not to worry... if you aspirated you wont inject into a vein | ||
Amateur Bodybuilder Posts: 56 |

hey anal assplorer. i'm still waiting for a few of my questions to be answered, but here's two threads that can help answer yours. their long, but extremely informative, so read everything.
The president of GenaPharm, Haddi Ghandour was very gracious in spending a lot of time with me and answering my many questions. So here are the facts on Synthoid/Pump 'n Pose. If one was to purchase the legit product overseas, there product label would look like this: SYNTHOL 877/3 Synthetic Size Booster
Ingredients: Synthetic Intramuscular Fatty Acids........85% Lidocaine Hydrocloride...........................7.5% Benzyl Alcohol......................................7.5% Shake before using Store in a cool and dry place Protect from direct sunlight
Hamburg / Germany
To import this product legally in the U.S., X3 Specialty Labs created another bottle. This does not have a label. But again, a multi-use, brown colored vial is used. Also, it will contain 100cc of the oil. It has white lettering burned in the glass. The letters will not rub off with a fingernail. They read like this: Pump 'n Pose Posing Ol Nur zur auBeren Anwendung GleichmaBig auf dem Korper verteilen. Kuhl und trocken lagern Responsible bodybuilders use Synthol to add size to small bellied muscles such as the biceps, triceps, deltoids, and calves. A lot of older steroid users used to use Esiclene. Esiclene would add a half inch to any bodypart it was injected in. Esiclene caused an inflammation of the muscle thus causing it to swell. This was only temporary and the inflammation would go away after a couple of days. What Synthol can do is add up to 2 inches to a body part. And if used correctly, the results can stay up to at least six months. How does Synthol actually work? Well when Synthol is injected in the body, the oil is supposed to be resistant to mobilization. Once this happens, collegen is formed around the bubble of oil and it encapsulates. The encapusulated collegen keeps the bubble of oil in place thus pushes up the muscle to make it appear bigger from the outside. Some have written that it is the oil that encapsulates. It is not, it is the collegen from your body. Dan Duchaine seems to be the only guru that has paid some attention to Synthol. He had a sample tested using the HPLC method and this is what he says Synthol is made of: C8 (caproic acid) 45.3% C10 (caprylic acid) 43.4% C18:2 (linoleic acid) 6.2% Others 5.1% He estimates that the "Other" fatty acid is C12. Basically it shows as Medium Chain Triglyceride, mostly C8 and C10. Keep in mind that whe a HPLC lab test is perfomed on a solution, it should show up as a food like substance. So that is why it may be coming up MCT oil. Dan believes strongly that this is MCT oil because of a producer of MCT's in Germany is a company called Dynament Nobel. GenaPharm claims that the oil is not MCT but a synthetic fat. The one common thing that all vials of Synthol has is a white powdery sediment on the bottom. This may be the lidocaine hydrocloride. Synthol has actually been in existance for a little over 3 years. Some of your famous bodybuilders are using it. One that is very blatent is the Canadian Collossus - Greg Kovacs. Earlier this year, at the Night of Champions, Kovacs has misused the Synthol and injected way too much in his rear delts. If you can see pics, take a look and you will see what I mean. There was rumours that Flex Wheeler has used it in his calves. He has been accused of using implants or other help. I have heard from a reliable source that he does use Synthol in his calves. So the consensus is that when a bodybuilder is using Synthol, he is deemed as a "cheater". Usually the people screaming these accusations are on more steroids than I am. So as the old saying goes, "People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones". Women get breast implants all the time, I never look at them and say "she's cheating!" So you have to make up your own minds. When talking to Haddi, I asked how does one use Synthol correctly? This is what I was told. You wont get instructions with the Synthol, and most of the advice that goes around your local gyms is usually ignorant advice from individuals that dont want to sound stupid. I got this advice on how to use this correctly straight from the distributor. Since most people have trouble peaking their biceps, this is the most common bodypart that Synthol is injected into. Here are the steps. Materials you need. Isopropyl Alcohol Cotton balls Injection Needle 1 - 1/2 in. 22-26 guage, at least a 1cc syringe Flair felt tip pen or equivalent Pump 'n Pose Preferably a trusted friend and a full length mirror. Small Band aids 1. In front of the mirror, perform a single bicep pose. You have to determine where the bicep will peak. Once you have found that area, using your free arm and hand. Use the Flair felt tip and make a mark on top of your bicep. This mark will be the insertion point for the injection. 2. Do the same for the other bicep. 3. Once both biceps are marked with the ideal spot for you peak. Shake the bottle of Pump 'n Pose up thoroughly and fill your syringe up with 2 ccs of Pump 'n Pose oil. 4. Using correct hygiene, swab the area for injection with a alcohol soaked cotton ball. 5. Relax you bicep and point the needle in on a 90 degree angle. Insert the needle through the subcaneous layer and push gently and steadily through the muscle. You must get deep into the bicep (basically under the muscle belly) Once you have the desired depth, pull the stopper up slightly to see if the syringe fills with blood. THIS IS IMPORTANT! If it does pull out and try another spot. If it doesnt, then slowly push the stopper until only 1cc is injected under the muscle belly. 6. Do the same for the other bicep. 7. After injection, reswab the injection site with an alcohol soaked cottonball. Massage the area very lightly. Do not put too much pressure. For best results try not to massage at all. 8. Use bandaids to cover injection wounds if necessary. You are done the injections. After a half hour after the injections, take a light weight dumbell, or barbell and use a weight that will allow you to do 12 -15 reps. Make the reps slow, remembering to squeeze the heads of the biceps after each lift. Remember to keep the weight light. We are only trying to get a good pump. Repeat this every other day until you get the results you are wanting. Once you have the results you want, then an injection once a month will keep your size for you. Hints: 1. Do not inject more than 1cc at a time! Injecting more than 1cc will not get you faster quality results. Usually the results are odd looking shapes from your muscles. 2. Since injecting into the bicep can be painful, try using a smaller guage needles if you can. The oil is harder to force out of some, but it wont leave a big hole in your arm. 3. The initial injection is painful, use an ice pack for about 10 -15 minutes to try and numb the pain. It is effective in masking the pain. The day after is when you will feel the bigger pain. It is because of the acids in the oil. It is not unbearable. Use asperin if needed. 4. Try to use a trusted friend, wife, girlfriend, nurse or doctor to help you if at all possible

Hey Big Toes, that was a tremendous help. I will seriously consider trying it now. I am thinking of my bi's first as my tris and calves are already genetically gifted.. Then I am going to try my abs. (Only kidding) | ||

Hey Jae. Glad that post helped. I took my first injections 3 days ago. Just a heads up. I think the trick is to inject SLOWLY... i injected my biceps slowly, no problem. little discomfort. my biceps were sore the following day, but it was a soreness similar to what you experience if you train a muscle extremely hard the prior day. it did hurt, but it wasnt excrutiating like what i've read. i injected my triceps quickly, & a large lump appeared. given the stories i read, i pretty much panicked, but the lump went away after a few hours. i'm by no means an expert with synthol, but my guess is because i injected the synthol way too fast (i even think i read that you need to inject slowly somewhere). just wanted to warn ya so you dont panic like i did. ------------------ |
