There’s a certain stereotype, a misconception, that pro bodybuilders, especially Olympians, use insane dosages of drugs. Those who compete at the Olympia are the best geneticists in the world. Genetics, including the body’s sensitivity to drugs, is a factor. Most of them use moderate doses and gain strength through good nutrition, training, and recovery! Large doses will only increase toxicity and side effects! Having spoken to various people at all levels of this sport, I realized that it’s the amateurs at the regional level who do the most. These athletes often believe these myths and legends and, unfortunately, often end up in the cemetery! When we hear about the death of a pro bodybuilder, it’s a sensation. Such cases are not uncommon, but these are generally more or less well-known individuals. When thousands of amateurs die, sometimes without ever competing, these people don’t make it into the statistics, and their number is many times greater!
It’s reasonable to start with recommended doses of about 500 mg of testosterone per week, 400 mg of nandrolone, and 400 mg of Primobolan, gradually working your way up to 1000 mg of testosterone over the years. Constantly monitoring estrogen and prolactin levels, and using cabergoline and anastrozole (exemestane) to lower them, is key.
Many people focus too much on testosterone and its derivatives, and don’t use or use insulin and growth hormone incorrectly. A combination of these hormones can produce a far greater effect than anything else! Instead of taking 1.5-2 grams of testosterone per week, use 750 mg of growth hormone (5 units) per day and 10-15 units of insulin; the effect will be far greater!
Everyone is unique; what works well for one person may not work for another. Finding the optimal regimen is one of the keys to progress in bodybuilding!
