Anabolic Steroids and other sport performance drugs have been used widely nowadays in different types of sports with variety of different goals. They could be categorized in people looking to boost their athletic performance, those wishing to alter their body composition for a more muscular and lean physique and older people in search of their youth (including both of previously mentioned types goals, i.e. appearance and performance). To achieve goals drugs, nutrition, vitamins are anabolen online usually combined in different protocols over certain periods of time. With anabolic steroids cycles and stacks are very popular. In this article we will try to define different techniques of stacking and cycling.

Before going deeper into protocols we need to define what cycles and stacks are: a cycle is generally used to describe the length of time and common dosage when taking anabolic steroids. Stacking means taking more than one substance at a time, which is usually developed in order to increase gains and/or reduce side effects. There are a variety of cycle lengths and substances that can be taken.

Although use of anabolic-androgenic steroids is usually considered as an unfair advantage with unreasonable health risks for athletes it is not always true. When used properly and within suggested dose and duration guidelines, anabolic steroids have shown to present many desired affects with minimal risk. Most often that means to gain maximal muscle with minimal risks.

The most common methods of anabolic-androgenic steroids cycles suggested by Anabolic247.com experts are:

Pyramiding

In pyramiding steroid dosage is gradually increased over time to achieve slowly increase of androgen levels (to a desired one), followed by a gradual taper down. The increasing of dosage is generally consistent with normal administration of the commonly used heavy-esters (i.e. testosterone enanthate, cypionateor decanoate) steroids due to their pharmacological assimilation. They take time to build up plasma levels of the parent hormone. The decreasing can be achieved by spreading the dose intervals or by decrease in the dosage. Pyramiding cycles typically range between 8 to 12 weeks. This method is not particularly popular today because natural endrogen production can not be fully restored until the drug administration is entirely discontinued. The tapering down only delays recovery of natural gonadal functioning. Using PCT (Post Cycle Therapy) drugs like Clomid, Nolvadex and HCG is considered a much better option to recover natural androgen levels quickly.

Flat Pyramiding

Beginning of a flat pyramiding cycle is similar to previously described pyramiding technique; it begins with a gradual increase in androgen levels and is usually consistent with normal administration. When the desired plasma levels are reached the cycle is continued with a consistent administration. At the end of the cycle steroid administration is stopped at once and PCT begins. The post cycle therapy drugs (Clomid, Nolvadex and HCG) are used with a goal for quick recovery of natural androgen production. Duration of flat pyramid cycles is usually also in range 8 to 12 weeks. The flat pyramiding is the most frequently used method for using anabolic-androgenic steroids today. Also Anabolic247.com members report great results following its guidelines.
