Steroids With Cutting and Bulking Effects

Bodybuilders can use steroids at any stage during their training. The reason for that is that they don’t just contribute to muscle building, but also aid with fat burning which makes them suitable for both bulking and cutting and generally complete body recomposition. At the same time, steroids will also aid in the repair of muscle tissue leading to more rapid recovery and they will help to boost endurance and focus during workouts.

Unfortunately though, steroids also have a number of unwanted side effects and are banned by most competitions. This is where it becomes much more useful to use alternatives such as supplements which stimulate muscle growth far more safely and with none of those dangerous side effects. Here we will look at how each works in helping your body to burn fat and build muscle and from there you will have all the information necessary to make an informed decision.

Steroids for Cutting and Bulking

lean and cutSteroids used for cutting and bulking include such substances as Deca Durabolin, Anavar and Trenbolone. These work in a variety of ways though they are generally slight variations on the same theme. In most cases these are synthetic substances (meaning they’re made in the lab) that can bind with the androgen receptors in the body thus mimicking testosterone and telling the body to create more muscle.

Others will aid in protein synthesis, helping the body to get more use from the protein you consume thus aiding in the creation of powerful muscle. Others still will directly stimulate the production of testosterone.

The problem is that all these methods are dangerous and can result in a number of unwanted side effects. Many steroids for instance will ‘aromatize’ meaning they become oestrogen – the female hormone. This can then lead to the development of breasts.

Other steroids give the same side effects as excess testosterone production seen in teenagers such as acne and mood swings. Some can also contribute to hair loss. More worrying is that over-use of steroids can cause the body to stop producing as much testosterone naturally resulting in testicular atrophy and loss of sex drive.

More to the point though, steroids are illegal. This means you’ll be dealing with disreputable outlets when acquiring them which could lead to your ingesting something unsafe. Furthermore, it could result in legal trouble, could alienate your family and friends and could get you banned from multiple bodybuilding competitions.

Alternatives

Fortunately there are many alternative supplements which can naturally increase the amount of testosterone in the body by stimulating the testes to produce more. Often these work simply by providing the body with the raw minerals (such as zinc and magnesium) needed to produce the male hormone.

Others meanwhile will stimulate production in other ways through the use of herbs and other active compounds. Paravar, for instance, is a completely safe alternative to Anavar, while Deckadrolone from Crazy Mass is a great alternative to Deca Durabolin. Both are available from Crazy Mass and offer all the benefits with none of the side effects.
