Dbol - 5 or 10mg??

[bodyuk]

I'm in the process of researching steroids for my first cycle and I'm wondering: Dbol - 5 or 10mg??

If I'm going to be taking 30mg of Dbol for the first 4 or 5 weeks of my cycle that works out to either 6 5mg tabs a day or 3 10mg tabs a day. Now, I'm fully aware that orals can be quite liver toxic, but does anyone know if 6 5mg tabs works out more toxic than 3 10mg tabs? Can you see where I'm coming from with this?

My theory is this: with 3 10mg pills there's only 3 lots of 17-alpha alkylation (if that's a word), whereas with 6 5mg pills there's 6 lots. My reasoning being 3 lots are better than 6 right??

Does this make sense or have I lost the plot? I guess it might help if I knew how these pills were made.

Anyway, the dose works out the same either way, but IF I can reduce the stress on the liver by taking fewer pills then all the better. Or doesn't it quite work like that?

Thanks for your input guys.

Cheers

this might help you out. "Not everyone should try and spread their doses out over multiple servings. First of all there is a slightly lower efficacy to take into account here as well due to two characteristics. The first being that you feed the total amount to the liver in smaller portions, yet the liver still manages to metabolize the same amount. Percentage wise that means less methandienone would make it through totally. The second would be that the peak levels aren't quite as high since no large doses are taken all at once. These two facts make it hard to recommend that just anyone take multiple doses. People who take moderate to low doses of ONLY methandrostenolone should probably opt for a single morning dose. This delivers a higher peak level and more survival of your only steroid. It also, due to the short half-life, makes the drug clear the body before the body produces its largest dose of natural testosterone, the early hours of sleep. Combined with the already mild effect at the AR, you could keep a good amount of your gains when using clomid or Nolvadex post-cycle. For those using it in conjunction with other, mostly injectable steroids, two doses seems to be the better choice, if you are taking in excess of 40 mg a day perhaps even three doses."

I dont think it makes a difference. Like, if I buy a half gallon of milk, or a full gallon. I still drink it by the glass, not the gallon.

I will say that I did dbol to jump start my first cycle and used 5mg tabs. I started with 40 mg a day but found I had high BP and I didnt like the way it made me feel so I decreased to 25mg ED until I got used to it. with the 5 mg tabs you can bump doseage up in 5 mg increments. With the 10 mg dose your locked into the 10 mg dose.

also, you said its your first cycle. Can you give stats: age, ht, wt, bf% and lifting history?

Also a dbol only cycle wont give you gains you will keep. have you considered stacking test E 500 mg / wk with it?

Welcome to the board. Lots of great info and people here.

take care

Cheers guys.

No, the idea is to run the dbol for the first 4 or 5 weeks alongside a 9 week test enanthate cycle, then switch to test prop and winnie for the last 4 before starting PCT. I'll post my full cycle (with HCG and PCT) once I've got all the bases covered, as it were.

As for my stats, I'm 34, 5'11", about 80kg (don't know my bf%) and I've been training for a few years now, although only really became serious about it recently. I have a clear goal I want to achieve in 5 or 6 years time, which will require me to massively bulk up way beyond my genetic maximum; essentially I want to be at least 120kg heavier, without becoming just another fat ba$t*rd.

Thanks once again. Cheers!

I'd split it up into 2-4 doses (depending on the mg per tab you get.) It doesn't hurt to keep plasma levels up. Esp pre & post workout...

go with the 10mgs and split them 4 times a day about 4 hours apart

I personally run 50mg a day at 10mg every 3 1/2-4 hours. If I was on 30mg a day I would do the 5's and keep your incriments up so it stays in your system the whole day. With such a short half life I believe it would be better to do more doses at lower mg.

Just my 2 cents
