If you ever bump into Ben Johnson, try to get him to talk about Winstrol, the brand name under which Stanozolol is commonly sold. There are many possible ways he can answer. Maybe he can go on and on about its many benefits to justify its use. Or maybe, he may even talk about how he got caught using it during the 1988 Summer Olympics, and stripped him of his 100-meter dash gold medal.
Winstrol and the Law
You don’t have to meet Ben Johnson, however, to actually meet an athlete who has used or is using Winstrol. The athletic community is full of these guys (and ladies too). For bodybuilders, it’s often used for cutting cycles, that stage in your training when you’ve gained your desired weight and are now you’re trying to get rid of the fat while retaining the muscle you gained in the bulking stage.
Most people know that its use is common among athletes, because of the fact that so many of them have been caught. Winstrol, like most of the other anabolic steroids, is banned by virtually all official sports organizations.
And it’s crazy to use Winstrol if you’re an athlete because there’s no masking agent for it to keep officials from detecting it. It also lasts a very long time in your system, so you’re bound to get caught.
Side Effects
Winstrol also comes with rather serious side effects. Liver problems are the major issue here, since in a few cases it has even caused fatal cases of liver problems. You may also develop an allergy to the substance. Your limbs (especially your ankle) may swell. If you’re a guy your breasts may get bigger.
Other side effects also include facial hair growth and/or hair loss, lots of acne problems, insomnia, and headaches.
The Winstrol Alternative
Another reason why it would be dumb to use Winstrol is that there is actually a safe alternative called Winsol in tablet form from Crazy Bulk. Like Winstrol, it’s also great for cutting cycles. It boosts the density of your muscles, and it preserves your lean muscle mass while it burns your body fat. It also drains excess water from your body so that your muscles become more defined.
With Winsol, you also get the other performance-enhancing benefits of Winstrol. You’ll find yourself much stronger (without the weight gain), much faster, and much more agile. It helps you recover much faster from physical exertion, and it also helps you avoid serious injury.
You get all these benefits, and you don’t have to worry about the side effects that Winstrol often comes with. The spelling isn’t just the difference between the two: with Winsol, you’re completely safe.
And what’s more, Winsol is also completely legal. So you don’t have to worry about getting caught. You don’t have to worry about the law or about being caught in a competition. You don’t have to worry about your strength, speed, agility, and protection from injury. And when it’s time to go to the beach, you don’t have to worry about the strange appearance of your body as well!
