Benefits of GP Methan by Geneza Pharmaceuticals

GP Methan by Geneza Pharmaceuticals was more or less the second anabolic steroid ever produced. The first, as we all know was Testosterone, which was produced in the early 1900s and experimented with by Nazis in WW2, in an attempt to produce a better soldier. Enough with the history lesson, lets get into what this GP Methan is and what it does. Well, first off, its usually found in pill form, though it can be found as an injectable also (Under the Trade name: Reforvit-B, which is 25mgs of methandrostenolone mixed with B-vitamins). GP Methan is a 17aa steroid, which means it has been altered at the 17th Carbon position, to survive its first pass through your liver, and make it into your blood stream. GP Methan will raise your blood pressure and is also hepatoxic (Liver-Toxic), so be careful with it. Lets examine this particular study a bit further, though:

GP Methan this study, done in the early 80s, a very high dose of Dianabol (100mgs/day for 6 weeks) decreased plasma testosterone to about 40% of its normal value, plasma GH went up about a third, LH dropped to about 80% of its original value, and FSH went down about a third also (these are all approximate numbers, for the sake of brevity, but you get the idea). Body fat did not go up significantly and fat free mass went up anywhere between 2-7kgs (3.3kgs average gain). The researchers concluded that GP Methan increases Fat Free Mass as well as increasing strength and performance.

Side effects:
As with many other 17aa steroids, GP Methan is also a very weak binder to the androgen receptor, so most of its effects are thought to be non-receptor mediated, and are attributable to other mechanisms (i.e. protein synthesis as indicated by the production of muscle tissue with very high levels of nitrogen, etc. which was indicated in the 100mg/day study). This also means GP Methan only has a modest aromatase activity.

In order to kick start a Dianabol cycle, usually what you do is incorporate a fast acting oral like GP Methan (or anadrol) and combine it with long acting injectables (such as Deca or Equipoise with some Testosterone). The reasoning here is that the oral will give almost immediate results, while the injectable takes time to produce results. The end result is that you start seeing results within the first week of your cycle and continue up until the end with the injectables. This entails taking anywhere from 25-50mgs of dbol (although as little as 20mgs or as much as 100mgs have been reported) for 3-6 weeks at the start of a cycle (average time for a "Kick Start" is 4 weeks, though), and then ceasing their use as the injectables start to produce results.

In order to successfully bridge between cycles (and this means using a low dose of anabolic steroids, in this case dbol), you need to recover your natural hormonal levels to pre-cycle levels or to within acceptable parameters, and then you start your next cycle. The idea here is that you wont lose any gains, but rather a low dose of an anabolic steroids will help you maintain them. Typically, you'd use around 10mgs/day of dbol and combine it with an aggressive Post-Cycle Therapy (PCT) course of Nolvadex (and/or Clomid) and HCG. This would give you full androgen replacement from the GP Methan and a shot at recovering your natural hormonal levels via the other stuff you are taking. Remember, the 100mg/day dose of dbol in the study we looked at earlier did not suppress Test, LH, or FSH to a degree that would make recovery impossible and certainly not with 1/10th that dose in conjunction with an aggressive PCT.
