(Newswire.net — October 25, 2021) — It is generally accepted that only bodybuilders take steroids. However, this is not the case. Anabolics are in demand in many sports. They are popular for their multiple properties and high efficiency. The result of their intake pleases athletes, so they are more willing to do repeated courses. It is noteworthy that for most bodybuilders Testosterone Propionate has become the starting point to the world of sports pharmacology. What’s more, many runners and swimmers have also enjoyed the drug.
What is Testosterone Propionate?
The world first learned about this substance in 1936. Then no one thought about its effectiveness in sports. A year later, the only area of application of the drug was as medicine. For more than 20 years, it remained the only form of male hormone used for medicinal purposes. It has been one of the most effective treatments for breast cancer in women. It was also actively used to replenish androgen deficiency in men. However, over time, scientists have developed non-steroidal analogs of the drug, which ousted it from the market.
Nowadays, this anabolic is rarely used in hospitals. However, its properties have become in demand in other areas, and in particular in bodybuilding. Experienced bodybuilders take it on cutting courses and in competition preparation. The high effectiveness of the steroid is due to its characteristics:
- 100% anabolic activity;
- 100% androgenic effect;
- low hepatotoxicity;
- the action lasts up to 3 days;
- the peak of activity 24 hours after administration;
- high aromatization;
- the injection form of release.
Due to the short half-life of the substance – about a day, you will have to do injections daily. Some athletes consider this a disadvantage, but in reality, it is more of an advantage. The drug is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream and there are fewer side effects than its counterparts.
How Testosterone Propionate works
The structure of this AAS is a testosterone molecule with a propionic acid tail. The latter determines the pharmacological capabilities of the drug. It also affects its speed and duration of action. This remedy performs several tasks in the body of a weightlifter:
- accelerates the growth of muscles;
- increases physical capabilities;
- reduces body fat;
- improves muscle embossed;
- increases libido;
- lowers cholesterol levels;
- strengthening the cardiovascular system.
This steroid can be taken in two ways – solo or in combination with other AAS. The combined cycle improves the effectiveness of both products and achieves better results. Moreover, it can be used for both cutting and bulking courses. The most popular anabolic steroids to combine are Stanozolol, Proviron, and Masteron. You can also improve the effect of Propionate with the help of a proper diet and sports nutrition.
