No, Synthol is oil the is injected into a muscle group to increase size through localized swelling.

The size increase is temporary and frequent followup injections are required to maintain the size increase.

I think this stuff is crap ! Imagine you're at the beach after some synthol injections and then you meet cool women. Damn you look stupid if you forgot your injections b4 seeing them after at a bar or anywhere else !! AS are the best since you keep most of the gains after if you train and eat well,

Just my 2 cents

I like and will only use Chris Clarks version of synthol.(Pump'n pose) I gained 1 3/4" in arm circumfrance and maintained slightly better than an inch after a year off. It's said 40-50% of gains can last 3-5 years. Im on my second course of it now and hoping to break 20"

Brutis, It is as painfull as pgf2 I just add about 15cc of 1%lido(to 100cc of synthol) to take the edge off. That works well. Superdave, you are either drunk, stoned, stupid, or 13 years old. I still cant figure out what you are saying. 126 post and still a retard.......Im sorry a "Pro Bodybuilder"
Three years here and only 17 myself but, they are all first hand experience and meant to be informative and helpfull which is the point of a discussion board.

FREAK, can you give me a lowdown on how you did this? I understand everything about Synthol, I just have no experience with it. Did you have to use a big gauge needle (18-19)? Did you get random swelling and have to inject at various points on one muscle, or did one injection give generalized swelling throughout the muscle? How deep did you have to inject?

Thanks

I've never taken it myself, but I administered my training partner's synthol shots for three cycles in the course of a year and a half. We didn't use Clark's stuff; we used a clone from the UK (no lidocaine)--it was much cheaper. We were able to use a 25 for injections; we used a 22 to draw. We hit bi's, tri's and calves. Results were dramatic, particularly in the calves. I always went right into the belly of the muscle head into which we were injecting--it enlarged the entire muscle. The gains are quite long-lived; his arms and calves are bigger than ever a year after the last synthol cycle. I believe that stretching the fascia sets the muscle up for future growth.

Sythol= slow metabolized injectable lipid. ALA EARNIE TAYLOR. PGF2/Prostaglandins sight specifc growth ALA SCOTT STEINER "BIG PAPPA PUMP" and his injection sights on biceps and triceps.

well...i dont have any personal experience with it, however.....it is an oil injected into the muscles which is obviously not permanent....there was an interesting article about the olympia & arnold classic & the use of it in flex (i think) last month.
anyway, the author was talking about the what has now become an abuse of it....where an athlete would do site injections in a few areas, commonly the bicepsm delts, and the occasional calve muscle, they are now doing injections all over hte body....when done by the unskilled hand, injections can look freaky & uneven, & offbalance....what was once a cut & symmetrical physique has turned into a body with massive lumps of roundness...and smoothness allover....see, i understand that when injecting it, it smooths out the area somewhat....when you are super waterdepleted like those athletes, the use of it will smooth out there injected area somewhat....hop this sheds a little light on the subject

COCKDEZL, The truth's post is on the money. I personally used 23gx1" and 1 1/2"(I like hitting diferant depths) As far as lumps, roundness, and blurring, this is why I use clarks product. My results have been well worth the $. I know plenty of guys who tried other forms of synthol with poor results. I should also mention I started with low volume(1cc) for several days, then increased. Feel free to email me and Ill tell you the specifics. Stay Big
