Trenbolone (Tren)

You’ve just run your maiden cycle of Testosterone, and you are itching already to run Trenbolone in your next cycle.

Or, you’ve just been prescribed TRT and you want to get a taste of things on the side. Tren seems just about perfect.

We’ve heard this so many times that it doesn’t even surprise us anymore.

Any fitness buff or athlete who has used AAS will at some point of time, do a Tren cycle.

It’s unavoidable. It’s the bare truth.

So, if you are reading this and you’ve used Testosterone or winstrol and have promised yourself that this is the boundary that you aren’t gonna cross, here’s the deal.

Don’t fool yourself. You will do a Tren cycle. Period.

Not that we are averse of Tren. We love it. Have run multiple cycles ourselves.

It is the most powerful AAS in the world. Not many compounds boast of an anabolic rating of 500.

We get the reasoning behind the infatuation.

But, there are some things that will come with that Tren Cycle that you may not be able to undo, ever.

Things that can go wrong permanently. So, it is imperative that you do your first Trenbolone cycle right.

Here are the five most crucial tips that we can give you.

#1 – Understand the difference between the esters

Trenbolone is a 19-nor injectable anabolic hormone that was originally marketed for veterinary use.

It was briefly approved for use in humans, but was quickly taken off the market.

So, the only option you have if you are looking to source Trenbolone is to brew it yourself or buy from a UG lab.

You will come across two esters of Tren in any UG lab setting.

There will be Trenbolone Acetate, also known as Tren Ace, and there will be Trenbolone Enanthate, also called Tren E. Technically, there’s one more ester, but we have never come across a lab that markets it.

If you look up on the internet for information on which Ester to choose, you might be fed bro science that Ace can give you one type of look while Enanthate gives you another type of look.

That’s just bull crap. It’s just Trenbolone. The hormone doesn’t change. The ester does.

As long as you can understand the difference between the esters, you can make an informed choice.

Trenbolone Acetate:

Acetate is the faster acting version that has an ester weight of 87%. This means that the 100mg vial of Trenbolone Acetate is 87% Trenbolone. If you are looking to get an actual 100mg dose, you’ll need to inject at least 115mg of Tren Ace.

Pros

Short half-life (2-3 days)

The minor difference in ester weight means you’ll feel this faster. If you seek quick results, this is what you must use

Maybe around 10% more effective than Enanthate

Cons

More expensive than Enanthate

Need to pin every day to maintain stable blood levels

Everyday pinning comes with the cost of injections, the risk of scar tissue etc.

Trenbolone Enanthate:

The Enanthate ester is the slower acting version with an ester weight of 70%. This means that every 100mg vial of Trenbolone Enanthate is 70% Trenbolone. If your dosage is 100mg per day, you will need to inject 130mg of Tren E.

Pros

Cheaper than Tren Ace

Fewer Pins needed. Most people pin Every third day. Some even pin once in four days, which reduces cost as well as risk of scar tissue.

Cons

Slower-acting version which means this will kick in a while later

May be 10% less effective than Tren Ace.

#2 – Dial in your dose

The ideal dose of Trenbolone for you will depend on two things.

1. The quality of the steroid you buy.
2. Your reaction to Trenbolone, which will be unique to you.

If your gear is legit, then you will need to start with a very low dose to understand how you react to tren. Do not get swayed by what you read on the internet or on messaging boards. What might have been a great dose for someone else might be a low dose for you.

On the other hand, even the lowest doses might trigger an unfavorable response from your system. When it comes to side effects, Trenbolone is amongst the worst.

If you are starting with Tren Ace, start with just 50mg/ED. It will keep the levels stable and 350mg/week is a very good dose. This will give you a great idea of how you react to the compound.

#3 – Dial in your dose of Testosterone

You WILL have to run Testosterone with Trenbolone. There are different schools of thoughts on the actual amount of Testosterone you need to run with Tren.

But there’s only one right amount and that’s the amount YOU need.

That depends on how you react to the compounds. Some people need as little as 25mg ED of Test Prop. This is an incredibly low dose by any measure. Guess what? It works.

Most of the literature that you’ll read will recommend at least 500mg/week of Test along with Tren. That’s a great dose for some people that may or may not be needed for you.

The only advice that we can give you is start low. If you are doing Test Prop, start with 50mg/ED and then work your way up or down depending on how you feel.

#4 – Be aware of the side effects

If you don’t prepare yourself for Trenbolone, it will catch you unaware like a Lion hunts down a gazelle in the African Savanah, and it’ll rip you to shreds.

1. Hair Loss: If you are going to lose your hair anyway (MPB), this shit will torch it in weeks.
2. BP: Get ready for BP spikes. Even climbing a humble flight of stairs is going to make you breathless. Monitor it and take remedial action if needed.
3. Acne: Again, if you are prone to acne, this will amplify it. Else you’ll be just fine.
4. Libido: This is where it becomes so important to balance out your testosterone/Trenbolone dosage. If you get your test dose right, you’ll feel horny, powerful, strong, mean, name it.
5. Sweating: You’ll sweat like a pig and it will be the case all through the cycle. The night sweats can be mean.
6. Mental sides: If you feel more aggressive in the gym, the Tren is working fine. If you start feeling paranoia and hallucinations, time to stop the cycle.
7. Gyno: Cannot cause gyno. Mostly wont. But can cause prolactin levels to spike. So keep Cabergoline handy always.

#5 – Buy Trenbolone rather than brew

Don’t be tempted to save a few bucks and home brew Trenbolone, especially in your first cycle.

Buy quality gear and save yourself the trouble.
