Which sould I use. Arimidex is so much more expensive. What are the doses for each and for how long. I know I could do my own research, but if anybody can help out for a second, I would say thanks     | ||

This one is like comparing Corvettes to Ford Taurus'. Spend the extra money and get the arimidex. 1/4 tab every day. Arimidex is light years ahead of nolvadex and I've used both, just incase you were wondering. | ||

I did some research and I came up with this. If you take arimidex you dont need clomid at the end of your cycle. Please feed back. The sh&t is expensive. | ||

Nolvadex is a competive inhibator for the estrogen recepters, meaning that it competes for and binds to the recepters....where as Armidex is a non competive inhibator...simply put, Armidex kills the estrogen before it has a chance... Nolvadex will supress IGF-1...and cut into gains somewhat...Armidex won't....heavy cycles, Armidex is the shit...light to medium...have Nolvadex on hand, just in case...... | ||

I was gonna use the ManChild's analogy, spend the money and do it right. I'm on arimidex right now and will use it in every high-test cycle from now on. | ||

 From some research I have done. Taking clomid eod during your cycle your body can actually become used to that substance. Result, when you cycle is finished your body will be acustomed to clomid making clomid useless at the end. ~Goku~ | ||

Doses of arimidex can be 1/3 or 1/4 pill ED or better yet EOD. Upjohn felt that total estrogen supression hinders gains and to an extent he has a point. Thing is when you are using lots of test,dbol,ect you need to watch it if you are prone to gyno. Thats why i say that every other day with the arimidex is a good start. If one would need every day use they can always up it to that. When you think about it arimidex isnt really that expensive. If you pay $10.00 per tab and use 1/4 tab thats $2.50 per dose. Most of the time nolvadex is around $1 per 10 or 20mg tablet at least on the black market. Now if you buy in Mexico then thats a different story. ------------------ | ||

Why does everybody think that there needs to be lots of estrogen floating around to see maximal gains. I mean, theoretically speaking animals are given an androgen/estrogen combination to increase CARCASS weight(This is overrall fat+muscle+water weight), in order for there to be more edible meat. As bodybuilders we should strive for optimal muscle increase, and by letting estrogen levels go high you're going to gain a lot of WATER weight not muscle. Ok, some people will argue that this increase in intra-cellular water increases strength, but do we really want to look like the Michelin Man while on test and DBALL. By using arimidex, Novaldex, or arimidex+Novaldex, we decrease estrogen, and decrease water retention to a big degree. However, we will NOT, I repeat NOT gain less muscle while using an anti-aromatase or anti-estrogen, we will just gain less water weight. Some people get the impression that they've gained less muscle because they're muscles won't be so bloated from the estrogenic side effects. godspeed |
