Oxandrolone is a medication that can be useful for athletes involved in bodybuilding and powerlifting. Here are some of its properties:

1. Promotes strength growth. This is due to the stimulation of creatine phosphate synthesis in muscle cells, while there is no accumulation of fluid.

2. It does not aromatize. When taking oxandrolone, muscles do not become watery, which makes it a good choice for preparing for competitions.

3. Combined with diet, it helps to make muscles firm and elastic.

Oxandrolone in moderate amounts does not cause any side effects. This is not surprising, because the medication was originally developed for women and children.

The medication causes (if it causes) only minor manifestations of masculinization. This property makes it popular among female athletes, because when they take 10-15 mg per day, they rarely show any outward signs of masculinity.

Oxandrolone is a favorite medication of athletes involved in bodybuilding and powerlifting.

First of all, this is due to the fact that it contributes to a significant increase in strength. This is due to the fact that creatine phosphate synthesis is stimulated in muscle cells, while there is no accumulation of fluid.

Weightlifters and other athletes who do not want to move to a higher category can use this medication, as it allows them to become stronger without increasing their own weight.

You can get particularly good results if you take Oxandrolone and 120-140 mcg of Clenbuterol per day at the same time. Although Oxandrolone by itself does not promote noticeable muscle growth, it significantly enhances the effect of many steroids on the body. It is especially well combined with Deca-Durabolin, Dianabol and various testosterone variants, since when these medication are taken simultaneously with Oxandrolone, there is an increase in strength and fluid accumulation, which leads to an additional increase in muscle mass.. The use of a combination of 200 mg of deca-durabolin weekly, 500 mg of testosterone enanthate weekly and 25 mg of oxandrolone daily contributes to a significant increase in strength and mass in most athletes.

Deca-durabolin has a pronounced anabolic effect and enhances protein synthesis. Oxandrolone increases strength performance, and testosterone makes an athlete more energetic and aggressive during training, as well as accelerates recovery processes.

Another reason for the popularity of Oxandrolone is that it does not aromatize even at high doses. As already mentioned, some of the testosterone in the blood can be converted into estrogens. This process is expressed differently in different athletes, depending on their predisposition.

When taking Oxandrolone, muscles do not become watery, which makes it a good choice for preparing for competitions. During this period, it is important to maintain a low level of estrogens, as they can cause water retention in the body even with a low-calorie diet.

In combination with a diet, Oxandrolone promotes the formation of dense and elastic muscle tissue. Although the medication itself does not contribute to the breakdown of fat, it indirectly affects this process, as it suppresses the appetite of many athletes.

Some athletes may experience stomach discomfort after taking the medication, which can cause nausea and vomiting.

Those who exercise to compete or strive for high-quality muscle building can combine Oxandrolone with steroids such as Winstrol, Parabolan, Masteren, Primobolan and Testosterone Propionate.. The use of a combination of 50 mg of winstrol every other day, 50 mg of testosterone propionate every two days and 25 mg of oxandrolone daily demonstrated high efficacy.

Another advantage of oxandrolone is its ability not to undergo aromatization. This means that athletes who experience problems with high blood pressure or gynecomastia when using strong androgenic steroids can safely use oxandrolone.

For athletes who have health problems when using testosterone, deca-durabolin, or anadrol, combining oxandrolone with deca-durabolin may be a good alternative.

Athletes over the age of 40 should give preference to oxandrolone.

One more argument can be made in favor of using Oxandrolone: this substance in large doses does not suppress the production of its own testosterone.

The bottom line is that Oxandrolone does not affect the hormonal balance of the body. It does not disrupt the work of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, that is, the testicles do not signal the hypothalamus to reduce or stop the production of hormones that stimulate the production of gonadotropins and luteinizing hormone, as occurs when taking most anabolic steroids.

This property of Oxandrolone is explained by the fact that its active substance does not convert into estrogens, as Dr. Mauro G. writes.. In his work "Side effects of anabolic steroids: facts, myths and treatment" (p. 23), de Pascale suggested that estrogens formed as a result of aromatization of testosterone and other anabolic steroids in the brain and hypothalamus can suppress the secretion of luteinizing hormone and, as a result, the production of testosterone.

This idea is confirmed by the American physician Robert Kerr in his book "The practical use of anabolic steroids in sports" (p. 32). He notes that when taking high doses of Oxandrolone (Anavar) in healthy men, there is no decrease in the amount of semen and sperm, and there is no conversion to estrogens. Based on this, Goodmann and Gilmann concluded that the feedback mechanism is activated by the concentration of estrogens rather than the amount of testosterone.

Oxandrolone is easily combined with Andriol, since the latter in a dosage of up to 240 mg per day does not cause aromatization and does not affect the production of hormones by the body.

Daily intake of 280 mg of Andriol and 25 mg of Oxandrolone gives good results in increasing strength, and for beginners in steroid courses — in gaining muscle mass without excessive accumulation of water and significant effects on the production of their own testosterone.

As for Oxandrolone, 8-12 tablets per day for men and 5-6 for women seem to give good results. Practice has shown that taking 0.25 mg of the medication per kilogram of body weight per day is optimal. Tablets are usually taken 2-3 times a day after meals, which ensures optimal absorption of the active substance.

If someone has problems with the gastrointestinal tract while taking the medication, it is better to take the pills an hour or two after eating or to give them up altogether.. Oxandrolone is a low—toxicity medication that rarely causes side effects. Many athletes have been taking it for a long time. However, you should not use it without interruption for several months, because, like most oral steroids, it contains 17-alpha-alkyl, which puts a strain on the liver.

Oxandrolone is a broad—spectrum medication that can be used in different ways depending on the athlete's goals. Women who are sensitive to anabolic steroids can achieve good results by taking a combination of Oxandrolone and Primobolan S, as well as Clenbuterol. At the same time, they do not have any masculinization phenomena.

However, women should not take more than 6 Oxandrolone tablets per day, as otherwise androgen-related side effects may occur, such as acne, voice changes, decreased timbre, clitoral hypertension, and increased hair loss.
