steroid faq
1. Mg is the strength of the steroid. Example, Sustanon is 250mg per ml, so if you are doing 500mg per week then that would equal 2 ml’s.
2. ML is the same amount as cc.
3. Does alcohol and smoking effect my gains? Yes, they will decrease your gains. Doing steroids take a commitment on your part. If you are spending the money and committing to the gym then leave the smokes and drinking alone.
4. What size pins should I use and where should I inject? 1 1/2" pins are needed for deep muscular injections. You can inject either in your glut or quad. I would not consider you arm unless you are very skilled and knowledgeable.
5. For oil based gear use a 22 gauge pin.
6. For water based gear you can use a 25 gauge pin. The higher the gauge the smaller the pin size.
7. Can you mix oil based gear together? Yes.
8. Can you mix water based gear together? Yes.
9. Can you mix water based gear with oil based gear? No.
10. Do not inject more than 3 ml/cc’s in one area per week. By doing this you will lesson your chances of getting an abscess.
11. What is gyno? Gyno is short for Gynecomastia. This is a common occurrence that happens when men use steroids. This is when the male breast gets a benign glandular enlargement. In layman terms it is were your breast grow like women's and it is very sore to the touch. It’s commonly known as bitch tits. If not treated immediately you will have to have it surgically removed which is very expensive.
12. What are signs of gyno? Here are just a few; soreness in or around the nipple, tenderness in or around the nipple, lumps under underneath or around the nipple, itching sensation, and burning on or around the nipple.
13. How much protein should I be taking in while on a cycle? 1 1/2 to 2 grams per lean body weight. If your body is weight 200 lbs. of lean muscle then you will need 350 to 400 grams of protein per day.
14. Should I get regular check ups while I am using steroids? Yes.
15. I had a bubble in my last injection am I going to die? No, you would have to inject at least 3 ml/cc’s of air into your vein to cause any damage. Small bubbles in you needle will not effect you. But you should try to always get them out.
16. How do I open amps? Get a jewelers file or a hack saw blade and score it around the neck, not cutting it but scoring it (even a razor or butter knife will do but be careful). Then place a wash cloth around it holding the bottom with 1 hand the top with the other hand and it should snap off real easy. Use a wash cloth incase the whole amp breaks so you don't get glass in your fingers( I have had it happen and it sucks). It if doesn't break with some force (not a lot) then spin the amp if still no then re-score a little deeper. With time and practice it will become very easy. You can also try placing the cap of pen over the top and use it to snap the top off.
17. Do I need to use an anti-estrogen during or after my cycle? Most users only use it during a cycle if gyno is present. You should always use it after a cycle to help start to get your natural test levels back to normal. This will help you retain your gains.
18. When should I take my injections? It doesn’t matter. Off days or on days. You will find most people do the injection in the a.m. since it can cause insomnia.
19. Should I split my injections up through out the week? There is really no need to split your injections up unless you are taking a type of steroid that requires you to do more than 1 injection per week.
20. Is my diet important while I am on a cycle? Yes, your diet is 90% of your gains.
