Equipoise information
Equipoise is a favorite steroid of many athletes. Its effects are strongly anabolic, and only moderately androgenic. By itself, Equipoise will provide a steady and consistent gain in mass and strength. However, best results are achieved when Equipoise is used in conjunction with other steroids.
Equipoise is the popular brand name for the veterinary injectable steroid boldenone undecylenate. It is a derivative of testosterone, which exhibits strong anabolic and moderately androgenic properties. The undecylenate ester greatly extends the activity of the drug (the undecylenate ester is only one carbon atom longer than decanoate), so that clinically injections would need to be repeated every three or four weeks. In the veterinary feild Equipoise is most commonly used on horses, exhibiting a pronounced effect on lean bodyweight, appetite and general disposition of the animal. As with all steroids, this compound shows a marked ability for increasing red blood cell production. In recent years this compound has become a favorite among athletes. Many consider it an ideal replacement to Deca-Durabolin.
The side effects of Equipoise are generally mild. The structure of boldenone does allow it to convert into estrogen, but it does not have an extremely high affinity to do so. If we look at aromatization studies, they suggest that its rate of estrogen conversion should be about half that of testosterone's. Water retention with this drug would therefore be slightly higher than that with Deca-Durabolin (with an estimated 20% conversion), but much less than we would find with a stronger compound as Testosterone. While there is still a chance of encountering an estrogen related side effect as such when using Equipoise, problems are usually not encountered at a moderate dosage level. Gynecomastia might become a problem, but usually only with very sensitive individuals or (again) with those using higher dosages. If estrogenic effects become a problem, the addition of Nolvadex should of course make the cycle more tolerable. An anti-aromatase such as Arimidex , Femara, or Amonasin would be a stronger option, however probably not necessary with such a mild drug.
For mass, Equipoise stacks exceptionally well with Dianabol, Anadrol or an injectable testosterone like Testoviron depot, Sustanon or Testosterone cypionate. Equipoise is also highly effective for contest preparation since it aromatizes very poorly. Muscle hardness and density can be greatly improved when Equipoise is combined with Parabolan, Halotestin, or Winstrol. Average dosages of Equipoise are 200-600 mg per week.
Injections are usually taken every other day.
If high volume injections are made too frequently to the same injection site, an oil abscess may form. An oil abscess will often dissipate on its own, but in extreme instances, a doctor will need to drain it. Therefore, athletes should take caution and rotate injection sites. It is packed in multiple dose vial of 10 ml 200 mg per 1 ml. It is commonly used in average dose is 200-600 mg per week.
Equipoise Side effects
Equipoise is not liver toxic, it will rarely retent water, cause acne problems, or increase blood pressure.
Aromatization is low (about half less than testosterone), DHT conversion is low, and it will moderatly decrease HTPA function.
Equipoise Effective dosage
In order to maintain stable blood levels, Equipoise should be injected at least once per week.
Men 400-600 mg/week.
Women 50-150 mg/week.
