Durabolin, more commonly known among bodybuilders as Nandrolone Phenylpropionate, or just  NPP ,  is a close relative of the popular steroid Deca Durabolin . However, due to the fact that for a long time NPP was hard to find and the available servings were not convenient, this steroid was rarely used by anybody. Luckily, in recent years underground labs developed durabolin in all kinds of dosages, making it more  accessible and practical  for use. Therefore, this steroid deserves a special attention, because it is more than just Deca Durabolin with a different ester. HISTORY Since NPP and deca share the same active substance –  nandrolone , their history is very closely linked together. Few people know that nandrolone as such was developed in  1957 , and the most popular version of this steroid was actually the one with the  phenylpropionate ester  attached to it. Nevertheless, a new version with the  decanoate ester  has been r...

It's a reasonable question, but also one that individuals rarely tend to take the time to think through. To weigh up the pro’s and con’s for their particular, personal situation. There’s no question that carb cycling can work. It can and does. In the right circumstances carb cycling can have a major impact on an individual’s overall diet experience. But so to can linear dieting. For starters, by linear dieting I mean standard dieting: maintaining the same calorie and macronutrient plans each day. Carb cycling is therefore a non-linear strategy. While there is a abundance of anecdotal evidence available, from individuals who have found success with carb cycling, however from my knowledge, there is a severe lack of controlled studies comparing linear dieting to carb or calorie cycling. What this means is that we can only really consider the possibilities, weigh up the pro’s and con’s and then make an educated decision based on your individual situation. To help you guide ...

One of the many questions I have been asked as of late is the benefits and pro's & con's of Blasting & Cruising vs Cycling. This is a great article from Iron Magazine that I have found that sums things up really well in my opinion. Hope you enjoy it. Peace, Paul While some may argue that PED use has become overcomplicated in today’s drug obsessed bodybuilding sub-culture, previous generations took a much more straightforward approach. Overall, steroid selection was much more limited, being comprised primarily of Deca and D-bol, while those preparing for shows might throw in some Primo, Anavar, or other non-aromatizable AAS readily available at the time. Unlike today, steroids were viewed as an addition to one’s program, not the centerpiece around which everything else revolved. For this reason, they were absent from the regimens of most for a substantial portion of the year. More so, there was a very clear distinction between being on and being off, with both c...

So thought I would share a piece of work by one of my mentors and go to guys for nutritional advice, Kyle Webber aka 'The Physique Coach' and owner of Nutrivolve. Now this is aimed more at those that have competed or looking to compete, refeeds can be a god send but also if abused can be the difference between you placing or not, or in worst case scenarios not even making it to the stage after 12, 16, 20 weeks of dieting.

Thought I would write a series of pieces on various training methods that I have employed over the years and also those that I have put into clients programs. I never ever give a client a training program that I haven't tried and tested myself as I want to know exactly how it will make you feel and the pro's and con's of them, both mentally and physically. To start with I thought I would write about one of my favourite training techniques - Daily Undulating Periodisation or DUP for short. Now it sounds very technical DUP just by the name alone, when the reality is its anything but complicated. To simplify it further lets break it down into easier to understand pieces; Daily - We are literally talking about days, see it's not rocket science so far is it... Undulating - A word some may or may not of heard of before but undulating means a flowing motion, up and down in a wave like pattern. Now if we refer that back to training it means reps and sets progressing in...
