(Trestolone Acetate => MENT)
Trestolone Acetate (note: not Trenbolone) belongs among the top AAS suitable for bulking cycles. Of course, it is a relatively expensive and still rather exotic substance today, and therefore very few of you have experience with Trestolone. NOTE, every bulking cycle is mainly about diet, because without good nutrition you will not move anywhere. The cycle I have prepared for you is composed of these three anabolic-androgenic substances:
-
Testosterone Propionate
-
Trestolone Acetate
-
Methyldrostanolone
Many of you will surely wonder why this particular combination, but we will explain everything, let’s get into it.
1. Testosterone Propionate:
Testosterone is the foundation of the cycle as always, and since Trestolone has a short ester, it is better to match it with a testosterone that also has a short ester. Its average weekly dose is set at 400 mg per week, applied every other day at 115 mg. You can adjust the average weekly dose to 500 or even up to 600 mg per week depending on your own preferences and experience.
Many of you may have issues after injecting TST P, because it is completely normal for it to cause pain and swelling after application. Why? Because a concentration of 100 mg per 1 ml is simply high. In the pharmaceutical industry, the maximum concentration used was 25 to 50 mg per 1 ml. (Testoviron Schering had a concentration of 25 mg/ml, and also Testosteronum Propionicum Polfa, and for example Galenika’s testosterone had a concentration of 50 mg/ml). These were painless thanks to the low concentration. If you fall into the category of people who experience pain and swelling after injection, it will certainly be better to draw both TST P and Trestolone A into one syringe, warm up the syringe so that the “oil” mixes, and then inject it — this should help.
2. Trestolone Acetate:
It belongs among one of the strongest available substances with pronounced anabolic and androgenic activity. Its anabolic effect is stronger compared to TST and its androgenic effect is stronger compared to Trenbolone. Trestolone brings massive muscle growth provided that the dosage is sufficient and the diet is of high quality. In the cycle, the average weekly dose of Trestolone is set at 300 mg (3 vials containing 1000 mg for the entire cycle). This dose can be increased to 400–500 mg per week, which would significantly influence further muscle hypertrophy.
It belongs to substances that aromatize at roughly 30%, which is not bad, but the result of its aromatization is the estrogenic metabolite 7-alpha-methylestradiol, which is 3–4 times stronger than regular estrogen. Therefore, during its use, it is important to take an aromatase inhibitor from the beginning of the cycle to eliminate the formation of this metabolite. For this reason, Trestolone is not often combined with Methandienone or Oxymetholone, because both of these substances also show strong estrogenic activity, and it can become truly difficult to keep estrogenic activity under control in the cycle. Therefore, instead of them, a DHT derivative without estrogenic activity is included in the cycle — Methyldrostanolone.
3. Methyldrostanolone
This is the only oral substance in this cycle, and it belongs among the strongest oral substances on the market. When combined with Trestolone, you will literally have a problem with being overly pumped even during normal daily activities. This combination is highly anabolic with great potential for massive muscle growth. Yes, of course, MethylD belongs among substances significantly toxic to the liver, which is why it is used only for the first 4 weeks of the cycle to jump-start the cycle quickly, then followed by a 4-week break to allow enough time for liver regeneration, and then it is used again for another 4 weeks, which also completes the cycle. MethylD does not aromatize, and therefore concerns about additional estrogenic activity during the cycle are eliminated.
As already mentioned, Methyldrostanolone can be replaced with Methandienone or Oxymetholone, but note: both of these substances have rather strong estrogenic activity. Therefore, if you choose Methandienone or Oxymetholone, it is better to have SERMs on hand => Tamoxifen (10 mg daily) or Raloxifene (30 mg daily), which you would start using if you notice increased nipple sensitivity.
Overall summary:
This cycle has high potential for muscle hypertrophy and also for a noticeable increase in muscle strength, so be careful not to injure yourself unnecessarily during the cycle. Due to the short esters (Propionate and Acetate) and due to MethylD, you will feel the effects of these substances very quickly, but unfortunately, your tendons will most likely not keep up with the rapid strength increase, and an injury can occur very quickly.
In this cycle, other substances are of course also used, specifically:
GHRP-6, why? Because it ensures:
-
increased appetite (hunger), which is definitely useful in a bulking phase
-
a more intense growth hormone pulse lasting 60–90 minutes
-
an increase in IGF-1 levels, which rise after about 12 hours and remain elevated for 24–48 hours
-
better sleep quality
GHRP-6 must be taken on an empty stomach because after eating, insulin levels rise, and insulin suppresses GH secretion. So if insulin levels are high, the effect of GHRP-6 may be more than 50% weaker, which would be a waste. Its effect is fast, beginning about 5–10 minutes after application, peaking after about 20–40 minutes, and the total effect lasts 60–90 minutes. How is it with food after application? Ideally, during the duration of the effect, you should not consume food (at minimum carbohydrates and fats) for at least 40–60 minutes. If you feel intense hunger, your first “meal” should be protein, because proteins have the smallest negative impact on weakening the GH pulse.
With GHRP-6, desensitization occurs relatively quickly. After the first application, ghrelin receptors withdraw into the cell, and it takes a few hours before they are ready to work again. Therefore, it is important to divide the daily dose into 2 doses spaced 8–12 hours apart. Ideally, one dose should be taken in the morning and the other sometime in the afternoon/evening. The daily dose is set in a pyramid, meaning it gradually increases from 100 mcg per day to 250 mcg per day. You can adjust this dose, of course, but I would keep the pyramid so that you feel increased hunger throughout the entire period of using GHRP-6. If you choose a constant dose, then after about the first week you will stop noticing the increased hunger, which is a waste in a bulking cycle. One more essential piece of information: it is not necessary to take more than 1 to 1.5 mcg per 1 kg of body weight, because increasing the dose does not bring significantly higher effects—rather, it deepens the negatives and speeds up desensitization.
Pitavastatin
This is used in the cycle with the aim of lowering LDL and triglycerides and increasing HDL levels. It is a medication that will adjust your cholesterol to better values. Its dose is set at 2 mg per day; if you go for blood tests during the cycle and still have bad cholesterol values, you can increase the dose to 4 mg per day. It is a very important substance that should be used in every cycle, if you at least somewhat care about your health and your future.
HCG
HCG is used throughout the entire cycle at 500 IU, but you can reduce the dose to 250 IU, depending on how you feel, because even 250 IU should be fully sufficient. Most of you massively underestimate the use of HCG during a cycle because you perceive it—due to lack of knowledge—only as a substance thanks to which you will have children, which honestly sounds very funny. HCG is not about children, and it also does not prevent testicular atrophy. HCG is an analog of LH, thanks to which it forces your testes to produce intratesticular testosterone! So your testes will not be “off” during the cycle but will keep producing, which means you will not have such a big problem in PCT! At the same time, during an AAS cycle, the production of DHEA and pregnenolone decreases, and HCG increases their production! A decrease in pregnenolone levels leads to worse mood, lower stress resistance, anxiety, irritability, disrupted emotional stability, weaker memory, and mental fatigue — and yes, that is exactly why you often feel terrible during a cycle. And what about DHEA? Again, its low level is associated with fatigue, depression, lower motivation, weakened immunity, and so on. And yes, this is also why you often feel like a “beaten dog” during a cycle.
I also mentioned that HCG does not prevent atrophy — of course it does not, because it affects only Leydig cells, which make up about 10% of testicular volume. The remaining part of the testes is formed by Sertoli cells, which are stimulated by FSH, and FSH will also be reduced to a minimum during the cycle due to AAS use, so atrophy will simply occur. If you wanted to prevent testicular atrophy, you would have to use HMG (LH and FSH) during the cycle, which would stimulate sperm production and keep you fertile during the cycle long-term, and only now, “dear children,” can we talk about having kids.
Exemestane
The level of E2 must always be controlled during the cycle. Most of you — and I dare say the vast majority — focus during an AAS cycle only on gynecomastia, which is one of the dumbest symptoms possible. Because even with elevated E2 you may not necessarily have issues with gynecomastia. Each of us has a different number of receptors in breast tissue, differently distributed and differently sensitive.
Long-term elevated and uncontrolled E2 levels bring much more serious problems than the possibility of gynecomastia, for example:
A. Long-term elevated E2 increases the risk of thrombosis (blood clots)
B. Long-term elevated E2 increases prolactin levels, which leads to decreased libido and worse erections
C. Long-term elevated E2 causes mood swings, anxiety, depression
D. Long-term elevated E2 increases fat deposition in the hip and chest area
E. Long-term elevated E2 in men increases the risk of cancer by more than 30% (prostate), and so on — there are more negatives, I will not list them all
Therefore, throughout the entire cycle it is necessary to control estrogen levels with an aromatase inhibitor. In the cycle you have Exemestane at 10 mg every day, but it is also possible to use Anastrozole at 0.5 to 1 mg every second or every third day.
Here you can see the cycle I just wrote about presented nicely in a table.
Here is the modified version of the cycle, in which Nandrolone Phenylpropionate is also included. Why? Because for many of you, Trestolone Acetate will be an expensive substance, so in order to reduce the costs to some extent, it is possible to run the cycle in this way as you can see below in the detailed table. And together with Nandrolone P at the beginning of the cycle, Methandienone is included at a daily dose of 40 mg; you can adjust this dose to 30–50 mg per day. It is used only for 4 weeks, then a 4-week break follows, and then Methyldrostanolone is used, but again only for 4 weeks.
And I also have one more variant for you — for those who do not want to include oral AAS in the cycle. There is this option, where Testosterone Propionate, Trestolone Acetate, and Drostanolone Propionate are used together throughout the entire cycle. The dose of Testosterone Propionate and Drostanolone Propionate is set at 400 mg per week; it is possible to adjust them to 500–600 mg per week. The dose of Trestolone Acetate is set at 300 mg per week, and it is also possible to adjust it, for example, to 400–500 mg per week, depending on financial possibilities. This last cycle carries the lowest potential for muscle hypertrophy compared to the previous two, but thanks to the presence of Trestolone Acetate, the character of this cycle is still almost luxurious.
For all of these cycles, I recommend going straight into PCT, but to continue using Testosterone together with HCG and an aromatase inhibitor for at least another 3–4 weeks, so that you do not experience a sudden drop in androgens in the body, which is never pleasant. Only after that would I begin PCT or the next cycle.
