Turinabol
Turinabol (Chlorodehydromethyltestosterone) is an oral steroid used for muscle growth, strength gains, and athletic performance and low androgenic effects.
Experienced bodybuilders and those beginners who are keen to learn will soon find that Tbol comes with some unique benefits for this type of use, but it will take some planning with your steroid cycle to gain the most out of this interesting and potentially very useful steroid.
Without a doubt though this is a steroid that directly benefits athletes including sporting and endurance athletes, and for that reason it was in the past used illegally by elite Olympic athletes, after which official manufacture of this steroid was halted and remains so to this day. It is now only available on the black market.
This is an oral steroid with great similarities in its chemical structure to the famous Dianabol.
Turinabol (Tbol) is derived from testosterone with some modifications which make it less androgenic in activity but still powerfully anabolic although it does not compare to the more potent anabolic steroids on the market when it comes to mass gains or bulking, and these are not the areas of common use or major benefit of Tbol.
What does it do?
Increased endurance, stamina, strength and improved recovery are the hallmark properties of Tbol. Clearly these effects are also of benefit to many bodybuilders from a performance enhancement perspective. But perhaps even more powerful is this steroid’s ability to help you get more out of other steroids you’re using.
For this reason, Tbol should be seriously considered as an addition to a cycle for any steroid user regardless of goal. Whether serious mass gaining steroids are being used or those compounds used for cutting, Tbol can add another dimension to a cycle that allows you to get much more out of your other steroids while keeping their doses lower.
Tbol is of course an oral steroid, and this does come with its downsides, most notably for its negative effects on the liver. For steroid users with experience in using hepatotoxic compounds, common sense precautions such as limiting cycle length will be at the front of mind.
But for users new to liver toxic oral steroids, it is paramount that the risks are well understood so that the real risk of liver toxicity is minimized as much as possible while still allowing you to extract maximum benefit from the incredibly useful and effective steroid that is Tbol.
Dosage Instructions
10 mg – 50 mg / Day
This steroid should be dosed according to not only what you hope to get out of it specifically, but also in the way that it can work with any other compounds you’re using in the cycle as it is known to enhance their efficiency by preventing the binding of testosterone; thus, freeing up those other compounds for more efficient use by the body.
A relatively low dose of Tbol is effective at achieving this goal. Whatever dosage you decide on, the maximum length of use should be no longer than 8 weeks because of risks to liver health.
Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced Turanabol Dosage
First time users of Turanabol wanting to minimize or even eliminate the chance of androgenic side effects can start as low as 15mg daily, however significant effects should not be expected at such a low dose.
Raising the dose to 30mg per day even as a beginner will normally provide more noticeable benefits while keeping the side effect risk profile low enough for most people to be comfortable with, keeping in mind that cholesterol should still be monitored even at these lower doses.
Intermediate users wanting more anabolic benefits from Turanabol as well as the enhanced endurance and recovery will find that 30mg to 50mg each day, with 40mg daily being the sweet spot is a suitable dose that strikes a balance between providing great benefit while keeping liver and cholesterol risk at a manageable level. This dose will provide some gains in mass and strength while still minimizing the risk of common androgenic effects.
The most advanced and confident of steroid users will likely be using some other very powerful compounds in the cycle whereby Tbol can play a vital role in enhancing the effectiveness and activity of those other steroids. Whichever goal an advanced user has, most will feel confident in starting their dose at the 40mg daily level.
Some of the most advanced steroid users have been known to boost the dose right up to 80mg daily but this should be done with extreme caution and a high level of understanding of the risks to the liver and cholesterol. High doses of this amount will provide increased mass and strength gains, but so too will the risk of androgenic side effects be raised.
Advanced users on a cutting cycle will still likely want to stick to a 40mg daily dose which uses Turanabol mainly as a muscle preservation compound rather than a mass gaining one.
Proper Turanabol Administration and Timing
Some oral steroids are best split into two or even more doses per day because of their short half-life, but this is not the case with Turanabol. This makes it a highly convenient steroid to use, with a long half-life of about 16 hours making it possible and recommended to take a single dose each day.
If for specific reasons you still prefer to split the Turanabol dose each day, taking 50% early in the day and the other half in the evening and keeping this pattern consistent is another option.
However, the effects of Tbol remain excellent when your administration of each dose is kept to once per day and preferably taken around the same time each day for consistency in maintaining optimal blood levels of the compound.
Female Turanabol Dosage
Virilization is a real risk for women using Turanabol so it’s critical that female dosages are kept low enough to avoid these side effects.
The maximum dosage for a female Tbol should not exceed 5mg daily. However, most women will want to start lower at about half that amount. Any dose above 5mg daily is highly likely to result in the development of masculine traits. Women should not use Turanabol for longer than 6 weeks, but many will find that even 4 weeks is effective while minimizing side effect risk.
Turanabol Cycles
This is not a steroid that anyone is likely to use on its own in a cycle. It is best used alongside at least one other steroid such as Testosterone, although more powerful steroids are also suitable.
Not only is the addition of at least a testosterone steroid into a Tbal necessary to combat testosterone suppression, but Tbal has excellent synergy with testosterone itself and contributes to the freeing up of testosterone so circulating levels are higher.
This is one of the big benefits of Tbal and can be the sole reason people add it to a cycle. Below are some of the typical cycles we see with Tbal at various experience levels:
Beginner Turanabol Cycle
Most beginners will want to keep the first cycle as simple as possible and that means stacking Turanabol with a testosterone ester such as the long-acting Testosterone Enanthate. The testosterone itself will work more efficiently with Turanabol binding to SHBG.
In this cycle Tbol will still contribute to some mass gains while improving recovery and endurance Testosterone Enanthate taken for the entire 12-week cycle at between 300mg and 500mg weekly, and Turanabol used only for the first 8 weeks at 30mg daily will kick in earlier in the cycle while the slower acting testosterone ester takes over for the cycle’s second half.
Intermediate Turanabol Cycle
This intermediate cycle makes use of slow acting steroids that will require patience to start benefiting from their full effects several weeks into the cycle.
With the addition of the powerful Deca-Durabolin, this Turanabol cycle is focused on mass gains, and they will be quality gains with fluid retention kept at a minimum. Testosterone in this cycle is used only as a supportive compound to provide your testosterone requirements due to the suppressive effects of the other compounds. In this case just 100mg weekly of Test Cyp will cover your bases with Deca used at 400mg weekly for 12 weeks, and Turanabol included for the first 8 weeks only at between 40mg and 60mg per day.
Advanced Turanabol Cycle
The most experienced steroid users will already have or be ready to try some of the most advanced and powerful steroid compounds and in this case, we can include the excellent Trenbolone in this Turanabol cycle. Just like Turanabol, Trenbolone also does not aromatize so gains will be very clean.
Expect high quality muscle and strength gains with the combination of these two steroids and the inclusion of Testosterone at a maintenance dosage for the duration of this 8-week cycle. The dose of Turanabol in this cycle can be considered up to 80mg even though this goes beyond what many might be comfortable with; even a dose of 40-70mg daily will be sufficient but those with existing cholesterol issues need to be extra cautious with dosing.
Trenbolone Acetate at a dose of 400mg per week will provide excellent mass gains suitable for cutting or other goals including contests because of the lack of fluid retention that will bring about a superb hard and dry physique.
For best results Trenbolone doses should be broken down into 100mg taken every two days. Finally, to mitigate testosterone suppression that will occur the inclusion of Testosterone Propionate at just 100mg weekly will cover your testosterone requirements during the cycle. This 8-week cycle should only be considered by advanced users as Trenbolone is a very potent steroid only suited to the most experienced people.
Stacking Turanabol
Although Turanabol is known to stack very well with most other steroids, and in fact can promote a more efficient use of them in the body, it should never be stacked with other oral steroids of the C17-aa type such as Anavar, because of the doubling up of hepatotoxic compounds which would stress the liver to potentially dangerous levels.
Turanabol otherwise works well with a wide range of steroids and is often used in the first 6 to 8 weeks of a cutting cycle to provide muscle preservation and hardening effects while being stacked with compounds like Winstrol or Masteron which can be used through to the end of the cycle
For mass gain cycles it is commonly stacked with Deca-Durabolin, Dianabol or Trenbolone.
At a bare minimum, Tbol should always be stacked with a form of testosterone if only for the need to combat the suppression of natural testosterone that is certain to occur.
Effect on Cycle
Turanabol is particularly beneficial for enhancing performance rather than acting as a mass gaining steroids, although it can provide some moderate clean gains in mass but in most cases other compounds will be used as the primary anabolic compound for muscle gain.
Turanabol is a steroid that can be used for multiple purposes and the user is best advised to develop an understanding of how this steroid works, so you’re able to include it in a cycle to the greatest effect. Below are the main benefits and effects that Tbol can deliver:
- Performance enhancement
- Mass Gains
- Helps preserve lean tissue
- Boosts efficiency of other steroids
- Boosts recovery
- Stamina
Side Effects
Turanabol would be considered one of the most placid steroids when it comes to side effects, in that the negative effects are very mild in most areas that are of concern to anyone taking steroids and particularly those who have great experience with estrogenic and androgenic effects, where Turanabol is weak to non-existent.
But there is one particular area we need to keep a close eye on when using Turanabol and that concerns cholesterol. Here’s what to look out for when it comes to the potential side effects of Turanabol:
Androgenic Tbol Side Effects
Turanabol has a very low amount of androgenic activity, and possibly none. Most men can likely use Turanabol with no noticeable androgenic related side effects like acne and hair loss.
Women on the other hand are highly likely to experience virilization symptoms when Turanabol is used at higher doses, indicating that there is certainly some androgenic property to Turanabol but generally at a low enough level that it’s barely or not at all noticeable to male users.
Estrogenic Tbol Side Effects
A big benefit of Turanabol is that it doesn’t aromatize at all so there are no estrogen related side effects to worry about. This removes some of the biggest concerns that steroid users have by not causing any water retention, high blood pressure or male breast tissue enlargement. Other side effects that may occur:
Cholesterol
Testosterone suppression
Liver Toxicity
