Nandrolone decanoate 2000mg/10ml vial Nandrolone decanoate is an injectable form of the anabolic steroid nandrolone. The decanoate ester provides a slow release of nandrolone from the site of injection, lasting for up to three weeks. The mild properties of nandrolone decanoate have made it one ofthe most popular injectable steroids worldwide, highly favored by athletes for its ability to promote significant strength and lean muscle mass gains without strong androgenic or estrogenic side effects. For general anabolic effects, early prescribing guidelines recommend a dosage of 50-100 mg every 3-4 weeks for 12 weeks. The usual dosage for physique-or performance-enhancing purposes is the range of 200-600 mg per week, taken in cycles 8 to 12 weeks in length. This level is sufficient for most users to notice measurable gains in lean muscle mass and strength. It is often stated that nandrolone decanoate will exhibit its optimal effect (best gain/side effect ratio) at 2mg per pound of bodyweight/weekly, although individual differences ir response will likely dictate varying ideal doses for different users. Deca is not known as a very "fast" builder. The muscle-building effect of this drug is quite noticeabl€ but not dramatic. In general, one can expect to gain muscle weight at about half the rate of that with an equal amount of testosterone. Nandrolone decanoate is often combined with other steroids for an enhanced effect. A combination of 200-400 mg/week of nandrolone decanoate and 10-20 mg daily of stanozolol, for example, is noted to greatly enhance the look of muscularity and definition when dieting/cutting. A strong non-aromatizing androgen like Halotestin or trenbolone could also be used, again providing an enhanced level of hardness and density to the muscles. Being a moderately strong muscle builder, nandrolone can also be incorporated into bulk cycles with acceptable results. The classic "Deca and D-bol" stack (usually 200-400mg of nandrolone decanoate per week and 15-25mg of Dianabol per day) has been a bodybuilding basic for decades. A stronger androgen such as oxymethelone or testosterone could also be substituted, producing greater results, but with more water retention.
