How does Testosterone Propionate work?

It specifically initiates the transcription of genes, thereby changing the nitrogen balance in a positive direction. It also increases the level of insulin-like growth factor in muscle and liver and causes the proliferation of satellite cells in muscle tissue, due to which hyperplasia and muscle repair occur.

Application and dosage of Testosterone Propionate

The drug is used in a course of 2-4 weeks. For athletes taking anabolic drugs for the first time, a dosage of no more than 50 mg per injection every second day is recommended.

Experienced athletes may administer 100 mg or more daily. To avoid side effects, you should take atiestrogen (Proviron) in parallel with Testosterone Propionate. This will help to avoid excessive fluid retention in the body, and eliminate the risk of gynecomastia. After the end of the reception, a course of rehabilitation therapy using Tamoxifen is recommended.

To maintain the gained mass at the exit from the course, it is advisable to take Cortisol. Do not forget about the special sports diet during the course.

Also, experienced athletes often introduce Propionate as part of a powerful mass gain course. They start taking it immediately after stopping the main AAS and use it within 2 weeks. Thanks to this, it is possible to minimize the effect of recoil and prepare the body for rehabilitation therapy.
