 Why does Winstrol get mixed reviews?

How is it possible that some people call it their favorite steroid and others call it total garbage? Everyone basically has the same opinion on Sustenon, Deca, ETC....but not Winny, what gives? Is it that they don't use enough and for a long enough period of time? My guess is that because it's 17AA most people only use for about 4 weeks, obviously not long enough to reap the benefits. They are worried about the sides, but forget to think that Winny is like Anavar in that its a very mild 17AA steroid. But I'd like some opinions on why some love and swear by it and others wouldn't give it a second thought.    | ||

Well, normally the orals cost a shitload, so many people underdose. Even with the injects, you rarely saw people go over 350mg/week, and then only on cutting cycles. Those soon-to-be-history blue 50mg winny tabs rocked the house, but notice that most were taking 100mg a day, or 700mg/week. For what it is worth, I've heard people postulate that some people have better affinity to Winstrol, while others don't. But I'd bet it is more of an underdosing issue.  | ||

All the people that I know have gotten great results from it, the only place where i hear mixed reviews is on the elite board, i guess it works for some but not all, just like anything else, i guess u have to try it for yourself ------------------ "Don't Hate the GAME Hate the FAME" -me | ||

Good points. Probably does have to do with underdosing, or alternatively people's expectations. You're not gonna put much on in terms of pounds, more in terms of density and hardness. It works well for me. IronMike | ||

Winny is not really for size gains if taking alone. And it is bad for the liver. One should not take it for more then 8 weeks. Only those with "strong" livers should go for 10 weeks, while Oxandrolone can be taken for 16 weeks without any problem at all (dixit TTOKYO LABS) ------------------ Don't look back, life is too short | ||

I THINK WINNY IS JUST LIKE ANY OTHER STEROID WHEN IT COMES TO PEOPLE HAVING DIFFERENT VIEWS. IF YOU HAVE A NEWBIE THAT DOESNT KNOW WHAT THE HELL HE IS DOING, THEN HE OBVIOUSLY ISNT GONNA GET GOOD RESULTS. I THINK THE GEAR IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS THE MIND OF THE USER...ZEUS13 | ||

Well - it works good for some people and great for others. The key is to get an appropiate dose. 100 mg/day of winny will blow away 100 mg A-50 for permanent LBM gains. | ||

I think it could be underdosing for some people because of cost. I used winny tabs in my first cycle a couple of years ago and didn't do well on them. I haven't used them since because of the bad taste left from spending so much for what was supposed to be effective. Recently, I have seen several people do well on winny depot, so my faith is somewhat restored. | ||

I have used it a couple of times and have better strength gains off it than any other AS. However, I have never gained over 5lbs off of it, but cut a lot of fat and always get very vascular. It is not a "massbuilder" | ||

Personally, I love the shit.....My first cyle I only took 50mg eod for about five weeks and got great results....I've never worked out so hard in my life as I did when I was taking it...it definately gives a better more intense work out for me. I'm not a big fan of getting full of water...so I was happy with the quality of muscle I gained while on winstrol.....I really cant understand whay people have such a problem with the stuff....the only side effect that I've ever noticed was sore joints...but not to the point where it really bothered me. | ||

the reason it gets mixed reviews is because about 50 to 60 percent that you encounter is fake or dirty | ||

i have taken test and deca before...but i like winny the best. there are a few factors that cause it to be looked at as a less than ideal AS - primarily b/c it is not a big bulking steroid when used by itself (if you want to bulk, try mixing it with deca). when a good diet is maintained, you can add some pretty good results to your size...the last cycle helped me gain about 7lbs LBM...and my goal is to add another 7 of quality gains with my second. i vote it as one of the best...but it is more expensive as well...which also causes it to be underdosed and when comparing gains to costs, test and deca make more sense to many people. just my 2 cents ss |
