Sustanon 250 is a blend of four testosterone esters testosterone propionate, testosterone phenylpropionate, testosterone isocaproate and testosterone decanoate. These esters make Sustanon one of the longest-lasting steroid compounds available today. It is an ideal compound for putting on size and increasing muscle strength. Sustanon is also relatively mild on the estrogenic side effects such as gynocomastia and wat er-retention. Doses of 250 mgs to 1000 mgs per week are recommended to keep a balanced testosterone level, although Sustanon will stay active in the body for up to a whole month. At higher doses, estrogenic effects can be severe and anti-estrogens like Nolvadex or Proviron are recommended. Taking Sustanon will also reduce the body’s natural production of testosterone so a post-cycle therapy of HCG or Clomid is also desirable. Sustanon 250® is an oil-based injectable testosterone blend, developed by Organon. It typically contains four different testosterone este...

Profile - Letrozole Just a quick write up on a soon to be added compound to our brand Letrozole is a powerful Aromatase Inhibitor that was developed to fight breast cancer. For athletes and bodybuilders, it is a drug used to combat the estrogenic side effects of anabolic steroids water-retention, acne and gynocomastia. It will also raise testosterone levels because of the lowered estrogen in the body. Side effects from Letrozole include a lowered sex drive and continuous use can lead to lowered lipid function and an impaired immune system. Femara®(generic name is letrozole) is a new drug developed for the treatment of advanced breast cancer in women. Femara is the second in a new class of third-generation selective oral aromatase inhibitors.. It acts by blocking the enzyme aromatase, subsequently blocking the production of estrogen. Since many forms of breast cancer cells are stimulated by estrogen, it is hoped that by reducing amounts of estrogen in the body the progression ...

So, here I want to discuss what I believe is optimal, but I'm not going to provide all my reasoning here, just explaining what I believe is optimal. High Training Frequency - This is optimal, I used to be of the opinion that if your on cycle, due to protein synthesis you don't need to keep training frequency as high. Here's where the problems can arise. Frequency of a lift is important, more practice of a movement, the more efficient you become, simple. Eventually this will cause issues, your only going to be able to repeat a movement daily for so long. For example 3 sets daily is a lot more management then 21 sets in 1 day. Long term though, you'll run into the constraint of injuries due to movement repetition. Also, you should never go below a frequency of twice per week. Training of a muscle more frequently will provide benefits, such as increased satellite cell profileration, muscular swelling (remain pumped looking constantly). So training each lift twice per w...

When planning your workouts you don't need to account for metabolic stress, only tension and damage. Unfortunately some of the researchers who study this stuff aren't all that bright. The reason why metabolic stress appears to stimulate hypertrophy is because the type of training that produces metabolic stress just so happens to be great for recruiting all available motor units and exposing the slow/moderate twitch fibers to more tension/volume. Performing a light pumping/fatigue set of 30 reps after finishing your heavy 5x5 doesn't cause extra growth because of metabolic stress, if causes extra growth because you've just increased your total rep count from 25 for the slow/moderate twitch fibers to 55 total reps, adding just 1 pump set at the end of your workout more than doubled the volume demands on the low/moderate twitch fibers. Metabolic stress and fatigue themselves don't cause hypertrophy, the real hypertrophy effect comes from motor unit recruitment modulat...

Is breakfast good beneficial or not? Well, I've not come to the conclusion that... It depends. You see a common problem people within the fitness industry suffer from is adrenal fatigue, if you suffer from adrenal fatigue you will not make enough cortisol and this makes it harder to maintain normal blood sugar levels. If you eat a breakfast, between say 6-8AM this can help with this issue, thebenefit of this can last up to approximately 10AM, this is where we get into the realm of balance and passing this should be avoided for health purposes. As mentioned above evening protein intake is important, but then I also recommend periods of fasting for at the most 12 hours with 10 hours being the ideal minimum to support processes such as insulin sensitivity, autophagy and more. It is true that carbohydrates in the morning and post-workout are less likely to be stored as fat.  So here really, the choice is yours, you either can skip it and hav...

Some people seem unsure of which forms of carbohydrates are best for replenishing muscle glycogen stores, well most fruits aren't very good at replenishing muscle glycogen stores because fructose is only capable of replenishing liver glycogen stores. Sugar (sucrose or HFCS) isn't very good either because it's 50% fructose. Only glucose can replenish muscle glycogen stores. Glucose = Can replenish muscle and liver glycogen stores Fructose = Can only replenish liver glycogen stores Galactose = Can only replenish liver glycogen stores Sucrose (and HFCS) = Half glucose, half fructose Lactose = Half glucose, half galactose Starch (complex carbohydrates) = Glucose Fructose and galactose can't directly replenish muscle glycogen stores although they can do so indirectly via dynamic equilibrium (they're converted into glycogen/glucose in the liver and then released into the blood stream where they can be absorbed by your muscles) although this process ...

As far as pre and post workout goes, I advise to eat within a few hours either side, up to 2 hours  either side is still shown to have the same benefits, less so past 3, plus some like myself use intra  drinks to support the peri nutrition further, I personally drink milk throughout my workout, this has  the benefits of giving me additional electrolytes etc and supporting the intensity and length of my  training, plus carbohydrates during a workout can reduce protein degradation but also blunt AMPK  mediated inhibition of mTOR.  There is enough support to show benefits in taking both protein and carbohydrates throughout the process of pre, intra and post. Again this echos the above that carbohydrates reduce protein  degradation and can work together for increasing protein synthesis and causing the greatest activation of mTOR. www.genesis-ugl.com www.genesis-board.com

Nutrient timing, something that's begun to recently bug me because it's getting way more attention  then it deserves. People think that manipulating GH, insulin, glucagon etc with meal timing will  have an effect on overall body composition. It's really just a silly idea people get when they think  they know what they're talking about but really don't. As they say, a little bit of knowledge can be  dangerous. The overall difference on meal timing has little effect compared to total intake, now  there are some cases where it can be beneficial to include meals, but again without total daily intake  being correctly met, this will mean fuck all. For example, evening, pre workout, intra and post workout.Evening time protein intake is important for supporting muscle retention, growth hormone, testosterone and it stimulates protein synthesis thus improving whole body protein balance during a post exercise overnight recovery. At the end of the day it...

Why do I dislike fruit and vegetables? Its because they're nowhere near as important as most people  seem to think. Assuming you're taking a vitamin c supplement (which I recommend) you can cut  them out of your diet completely without causing any harm whatsoever, assuming of course you're  obtaining the vitamins/minerals usually found in vegetables from other food sources instead (which  isn't hard to do). Overall fruit can cause too many problems, a better explanation would be that  excess fructose is converted into triglyceride’s (fat), which are then attached to LDL particles so  that they can be shipped out of your liver. This is why excess fructose consumption increases your  triglyceride’s and LDL cholesterol. It's important to remember that sucrose is half fructose and half  glucose, HFCS also contains fructose. Other issues that can arise are raising liver glycogen levels  too high and having no effect on suppressing appetite. Fruits...

I don't include further Fiber, it lowers testosterone, generally not very much at all but excessive  amounts of fiber will result in a noticeable (10-15%) decrease of testosterone when fiber intake  exceeds around 25-30 grams per day. The only people who benefit from additional fiber are those  who eat foods which are potentially vary unhealthy, carrying pesticides and chemicals etc, the fiber  will decrease the length of time it is within your system. www.genesis-ugl.com www.genesis-board.com

Carbohydrate intake is the simplest to identify, you simply take the remainder of your calories and  divide it by 4 to see how many grams you have left to play with. If you feel this does not meet your  requirements for your activity level, lower the fat intake and raise the carbohydrate intake until  you've adjusted to a number your comfortable with, remember to not go below 50 grams of fat at  any period of dieting.  Whether you get your calories from carbohydrate or fat makes zero difference in terms of body  composition, assuming of course equal calorie intake and no deficiencies. www.genesis-ugl.com www.genesis-board.com

Fat intake, first off I will provide a minimum, I don't care how you arrange your carbohydrates to  proteins to whatever, but do not go below 50 grams of fat a day, this would be extremely unhealthy  and detrimental to your hormones. I prefer a minimum of 0.4 grams per lb of bodyweight, you can  go higher then this if you wish, a bonus to hitting these numbers with protein and fat is that  depending on your caloric intake goal, it stops your carbohydrates from hitting excessive numbers,  win win. Saturated/Mono fat isn't the enemy, Polyunsaturated is, keeping your poly fat intake to a  minimum is most impo rtant aspect of fat intake. www.genesis-ugl.com www.genesis-board.com

T h e ideal number for protein intake is 0.82g per lb of bodyweight, BUT before you go rushing  off with your calculators, hear me out. This is the highest recorded amount will benefits were still  provided, as far as intake goes when compared within a study of different ranges, there was small  benefits going over 0.64g per lb of bodyweight, namely nitrogen balance . By playing it safe with  the higher option, we can assure that if the rest of the diet and training is in check, during a cut their  will be minimal muscle loss and during a bulk this gives us additional room for carbohydrates and  fats. For those who use steroids, this is different, this number goes up to 1.5g per lb of bodyweight  due to protein synthesis, but this needs to be explained completely separately to avoid confusion.  So, my recommendation for protein intake, is to hit at least a minimum of 0.75g per lb of  bodyweight using direct protein sources, this is not includ...

Now we are going to count all of our macro-nutrients, but in theory, you don't need to. The reason  why we are is because it fits simpler with most modern day counting systems. Most are in-fact,  incorrect, for example protein is not 4 calories per gram, carbohydrates are not 4 calories per gram  and fats are not 9 calories per gram. We simply use these figures because they make it easier to  count. The protein is way off and the carbohydrates plus fats are just rounded to the nearest,  different forms of macro-nutrients ie glucose digests at a different caloric intake to lactose and so  on. This will complicate things for most and this is the reason why I stick to the 4-4-9 system even though it is not actually accurate. Caloric intake is set depending on your goal but it gets slightly adjusted depending on lifestyle, you see somebody who is extremely active or doing a high volume bodybuilding routine would require a different caloric intake to ...

With dieting, something I often get asked is ratios of macro-nutrients. I don't use ratios, all you need  to worry about is getting enough protein, getting enough carbohydrate (depends on your training  volume and general activity level) and then filling in the rest of your calorie requirement with  mostly sat/mono fat. You should be thinking in terms of actual gram numbers, not ratios. If you  wish to think of ratios, I would say the optimal ratios for testosterone production for those who are  interested would be : - 20% Protein - 30% Carbohydrate - 50% Fat (45% saturated, 45% monounsaturated, 10% polyunsaturated with a 1:2 omega 3 to 6 ratio) Now we are going to count all of our macro-nutrients, but in theory, you don't need to. The reason why we are is because it fits simpler with most modern day counting systems. Most are in-fact, incorrect, for example protein is not 4 calories per gram, carbohydrates are not 4 calories per gram...

This ties in with training and diet, s ometimes people ask me about feeling flat etc, this is mainly diet related. You'll feel flat and get a  shit pump if your glycogen stores are low. Glycogen makes your muscles swell up in size and feel  nice and full. If you're noticing flat muscles and low vascularity you should increase your average  daily complex carb intake or instead have a high carb day every 3rd of 4th day, around 500 grams  (mostly complex), I will explain more about carbohydrate intake further on. Salt increases  vascularity, eating more sodium than usual increases your blood volume which makes you more  vascular, however it's only temporary, after your body adapts to the higher sodium intake your vascularity will return to normal. I don't directly recommend adding sodium to your diet unless you participate in a lot of endurance activities, if people wish to a small amount shouldn't hurt and I would recommend Himilayan Sea Salt. Vas...

Occlusion isn't as important as I once thought, it simply makes you reach failure quicker through a reduced range of motion maintaining more tension. I pause slightly at the bottom position, this reduces stress on the tendons due to the way the stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) works. Fast turnaround speeds take advantage of the SSC which allows you to lift more weight but it also increases the risk of injury. As far as tempo goes, I lift (concentric) my weights at a natural tempo, not as fast as possible but not intentionally slowed down either. I lower (eccentric) my weights at around half the speed I lift. I pause briefly between the end of the eccentric phase and the beginning of the concentric phase. www.genesis-ugl.com www.genesis-board.com
