Anadrol (also known as A-drol, or just Drol) is one of the most mysterious of all steroids. It was released in the U.S. Back in 1960 to treat anemia – which in itself is weird since anemia was all but non existent by that time in most developed countries. (And B12 and iron supplementation worked fine is most cases). Then again, it was originally developed by Syntex, a Mexican company so that may explain the need for a medication to counteract malnutrition.

Oxandrolone is the chemical name of the hormone we know as Anavar, a steroid that was introduced to the market in 1964. The clinical purpose for this drug was as a mild alternative to other steroids, one so mild that could even be prescribed to women and children for the purpose of gaining weight following trauma, surgery, severe infection or illness. It has even been prescribed to patients who fail to maintain a normal weight even without any pathological reason. Currently it has some uses in patients who suffer wasting diseases such as AIDS.

Among steroid users Anavar is known as a very mild and even weak steroid that is only used for cutting purposes. Most people who use Anavar will stack it with other cutting steroids like Winstrol and Primobolan Depot. In a cutting cycle Anavar is taken in an effort to help maintain muscle mass while losing body fat. In bulking cycles Anavar is close to useless since its high price does not make economic sense to use it over other products like Dianabol or Anadrol, both which have proven better at building muscle for less than half the price.

AndroGel is a transdermal gel which contains 1% testosterone by weight which is designed to provide continuous delivery of testosterone to the body over a 24 hour period after being applied. It was approved by the FDA as a prescription medication in 2000 and is prescribed to males who suffer from deficiency or absence of endogenous testosterone. It is available in 2.5 gram and 5 gram sachets. Roughly 10% of the applied amount is actually transmitted, meaning that for 2.5 grams of application, 2.5mg of hormone would actually be delivered, and for a 5 gram application, about 5 mg would be delivered.

Clenbuterol is a fascinating drug in that its properties are selective to fat cells. In fact, its technical definition is termed as a selective beta -2- agonist. What that means in plain English is that it hits specific receptors and in the case of clenbuterol, being an asthma medication, it targets the bronchial airway passages. So what does this have to do with bodybuilding? Well, there’s another interesting side effect to Clenbuterol. It burns fat – fast! It does so by increasing metabolism, decreasing appetite and elevating body temperature to the point where fat cells literally melt. Clen can do what almost no other drug (except the extraordinarily dangerous DNP) can do. It will lower bodyfat percentage faster and greater than can possibly be accomplished with just diet and exercise.

Nandrolone is the chemical name for the Steroid that many know as Deca-Durabolin. Deca Durabolin is in fact the trademark name Organon Corporation gave this product when they released it to the public. The name has stuck and now everybody refers to Nandrolone Decanoate as simply Deca. This steroid is suspended in an oil solution meant for intramuscular application. Being a very basic steroid with few side-effects makes this a great product for new users. Deca is known for a very smooth and painless injection which adds to its appeal for those who are new to using needles. Testosterone is often stacked with Deca in steroid cycles since these two steroids have a synergistic effect in the body.
