Description
Testosterone Suspension is one of the most powerful anabolic steroids ever created. Testosterone Suspensionis simply raw testosterone. There is no ester attached, meaning every last milligram of the contained solution is the pure testosterone hormone. This makes Testosterone Suspension tremendously fast acting. In fact, the rapid action of this compound will produce testosterone benefits faster than any standard testosterone compound.
For all intense purposes Testosterone Suspension is the oldest anabolic steroid on the market first appearing in the 1930’s. While Testosterone Propionate was the first commonly produced commercial testosterone compound it was actually created after the suspension version. Testosterone Suspension has also enjoyed an enormous amount of popularity in medical circles for the treatment of androgen deficiencies among many other uses. However, in the modern age its therapeutic use has been somewhat limited. This is largely due to ester base testosterones now dominating the market leaving most Testosterone Suspension to be found in performance enhancement circles.
While Testosterone Suspension is popular among some performance enhancing athletes it is still not as common as more traditional forms in Testosterone Cypionate, Testosterone Enanthate, Testosterone Propionate and specific blends like Sustanon 250. However, it is often well appreciated by some athletes who are looking for rapid and pronounced gains in size. It is also commonly used to help an athlete break through a sticking point.
Although Testosterone Suspension can be valuable to many athletes, many will shy away due to injection pain commonly associated with this compound. The administration of anabolic steroids should not hurt, but we can make a possible exception with Testosterone Suspension. Many find it extremely difficult to move the arm or leg that has been injected due to the pain this compound can cause, Many also find they have a hard time controlling side effects with this anabolic steroid, especially those of an estrogenic nature. Testosterone is simply testosterone regardless of an ester being attached or not. This does not change the hormones mode of action in any way. However, the rapid nature of Testosterone Suspension does appear to make it difficult for some to control the estrogenic effects.
Testosterone Suspension Functions & Traits:
Testosterone Suspension is a pure ester free synthetic testosterone compound that is normally suspended in water. Most injectable anabolic steroids are suspended in oil and oil based Suspension can be found but water base is far more common. As there is no ester attached to Testosterone Suspension, this means there is no ester to take up any mass in the compound, thereby increasing its potency on a per milligram basis. When we examine an anabolic steroid on the basis of its concentrated potency, we commonly have to take into consideration the mass of the ester. For example, Testosterone Propionate will carry more active testosterone on a per milligram basis than Testosterone Cypionate due to the Cypionate ester taking up more mass in the compound than the Propionate ester. This is why you will commonly see Propionate doses to be a little lower than Cypionate doses. But with Testosterone Suspension, as there’s no ester there’s no interference with the concentration. The following chart should help you understand this principle:
As a pure testosterone compound Testosterone Suspension like all testosterone compounds carries an anabolic rating of 100 and an androgenic rating of 100 as well. It is this rating system, that of testosterone which all ratings of all anabolic steroids are measured. While carrying a 100 rating in both categories on a structural basis, its translating functional nature matches up perfectly. This is important as it’s not always the case with all anabolic steroids. For example, the anabolic steroid Halotestin (Fluoxymesterone) carries a massive anabolic rating of 1,900 but displays almost no anabolic effects. Then there are steroids like Deca Durabolin(Nandrolone Decanoate) that carries an androgenic rating of only 37 but commonly results in androgenic characteristics far beyond what its rating implies. This discrepancy issue does not exist with Testosterone Suspension. The hormone will be powerfully anabolic and androgenic just as its ratings imply.
As a raw testosterone this makes Testosterone Suspension suitable for treating androgen deficiencies like low testosterone. It will not do a better job than other testosterone compounds and can actually be a little annoying on the basis of frequent injection; however, it can improve related low level symptoms faster than any other testosterone form. If you’re wondering how Testosterone Suspension can fix low testosterone it’s really rather simple. Testosterone represents the primary male androgen and is essential to our health and wellbeing. Women also need testosterone and essentially so but not near the amount of their male counterparts. Regardless, man or woman when testosterone levels fall the only thing that will remedy the problem is testosterone, and that’s exactly what Testosterone Suspension is. This is not to say women should use this anabolic steroid to treat this condition, in fact they should not due to strong virilization effects. There are other testosterone compounds that will be far easier for women to control.
Effects of Testosterone Suspension:
In a performance capacity the effects of Testosterone Suspension will be most commonly associated with periods of off-season growth. The testosterone hormone has the ability to pack raw size on an individual’s frame better than any hormone on earth and this one will do it rapidly. High levels of testosterone can also make it easier to control fat gain that often comes with off-season growth. True growth does require excess calories but the key to successful growth is minimizing the fat gain as much as possible. High testosterone levels will stimulate the metabolic rate enabling you to make better use of your calories but there’s in this case a catch. Testosterone Suspension tends to promote a lot of fast acting estrogenic activity and this can promote fat gain. Can it be controlled? Absolutely and if it couldn’t no competitive bodybuilder would use it during his contest prep time but it is a factor you need to be aware of.
The use of exogenous testosterone most certainly has its place in a cutting cycle. High testosterone levels are invaluable when it comes to protecting lean muscle mass during a necessary caloric restriction. Remember, you must burn more calories than you consume when dieting in order to lose body fat. If not, even if your diet is generally comprised of healthy foods and you exercise all day you won’t lose fat. This necessary caloric restriction puts our lean muscle mass at risk. The key to a successful diet is minimizing this lean tissue loss while losing body fat. High testosterone levels are a perfect way to achieve this end but without an anabolic protectant lean tissue loss will occur.
Unfortunately, while testosterone is a great protectant Testosterone Suspension is not the best choice in cutting plans for many men. This steroid’s high level of aromatase activity can make water retention difficult to control for some and the bloating associated is often not what you want when cutting. However, this can all be controlled and it’s not all that uncommon to find Testosterone Suspension in competitive bodybuildingcontest cycles, which themselves are periods of often severe dieting. Such a period of use can help create a much fuller look but should not be attempted unless you really know how to control the hormone and overall water retention.
Because of the fast acting nature of Testosterone Suspension many find it to be one of the best plateau busters out there. At any given point in a cycle the progress will normally come to a halt. We’re largely referring to mass gaining cycles. At this stage something must change in order for progress to return. This could be your diet, training or hormone plan and it could be all three. Introducing Testosterone Suspension into your plan when you hit a wall is the perfect way to break through that wall and with force. Normally 3-4 weeks of use will see tremendous progress made. However, this is not a practice that will be undertaken by most anabolic steroid users but rather one that’s normally reserved for more hardcore circles. We’re referring to truly advanced steroid users who are much larger risk takers.
The final effects of Testosterone Suspension that are of notable worth include enhancing muscular endurance and improving the rate of recovery. Regardless of the cycle’s purpose or the individual in question, these are the two most valuable effects. You do not tire out as fast, you can do more work and you recover more efficiently. Recovery is important because this is where progress is made. Progress isn’t actually made in the gym, training actually breaks muscle down but recovery is where progress occurs. This makes Testosterone Suspension a suitable choice for many performance athletes, especially when we consider its short detection time. Testosterone Suspension can only be detected for 48 hours at most making it very popular in some tested athlete circles.
Side Effects of Testosterone Suspension:
There are possible side effects of Testosterone Suspension use; however, keep in mind it’s just testosterone, a hormone your body is well accustomed to. For the low testosterone patient, the probability of incurring side effects of Testosterone Suspension use will be the lowest. In this case the individual is simply replacing what he is lacking and nothing more. However, side effects are still possible and must be taken into consideration. For the performance enhancing athlete, the side effects of Testosterone Suspension will greatly increase in probability. Such an individual will be increasing his total testosterone levels above and beyond what the human body could ever naturally produce. However, while there is an increased probability it is very possible to control the side effects of Testosterone Suspension. But due to the rapid nature of the compound some will have a more difficult time controlling testosterone related side effects with this version than the more popular testosterone compounds. In order to help you understand the possible side effects of Testosterone Suspension we have broken them down into their separate categories along with all the information you’ll need.
Is an injectable preparation containing unesterfied testosterone in a water base. Among athletes, testosterone suspension has a reputation of being an extremely potent injectable, often ranked highest among the testosterones. Very fast acting, testosterone suspension will sustain elevated testosterone levels for only 2-3 days. Athletes will most commonly inject “suspension” daily, at a dosage of 50-100 mg. Although this drug requires frequent injections, it will pass through a needle as fine as a 27 gague insulin. This allows users to hit smaller muscles such as delts for injections. Although this drug is very effective for building muscle mass, its side effects are also very extreme. The testosterone in this compound will convert to estrogen very quickly, and has a reputation of being the worst testosterone to use when wishing to avoid water bloat. Gynocomastia is also seen very quickly with this drug, and quite often cannot be used without an anti-estrogen. Blood pressure and kidney functions should also be looked at during heavy use. Suspension is not a common drug outside the U.S. and Canada, so with the disappearing “real” American versions, availability has become very scarce. There are currently many fakes being circulated, with real products seen only rarely. Since this is a water based injectable, I would be very wary of using a counterfeit. It is more likely bacteria would be a problem with water based products and if the fake was not made to laboratory standards (most are not) your health could be at risk.
