About Dianabol (Methandrostenolone)

Dianabol (Methandrostenolone), also known as Dbol and Nandrolone, is an orally-effective anabolic steroid that is popular among athletes and bodybuilders as a bulking cycle drug. Methandrostenolone is commonly stacked with injectable drugs such as Trenbolone Acetate, Testosterone propionate, enanthate, or cypionate.

Use of Dianabol is associated with dramatic improvements in the levels of muscle strength, glycogenolysis, and protein synthesis. Methandrostenolone is significantly more active than an equivalent quantity of Testosterone as it can reduce affinity of the steroid for Sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) that deactivates molecules of steroid and prevents them from inducing or exerting further reactions with the body. Methandrostenolone, also termed as Dbol, is usually used only at the start of long "steroid cycles" to kickstart muscle mass and strength gains.
