Equipoise Experiences and opinions.

[Mobius]

What's up everyone. I've been doing alot of research lately for my second cycle, and my focus has been stuck on Equipoise. On paper when you look at its profile it seems to be a pretty great compound. The fact that it converts to estrogen at about half the rate of Test is what really grabs my attention. But with that said, there seems to be alot of conflicting opinions about it as far as dosing and cycle length or weather or not it's worth using at all.

So please share any experiences you have had with Equipose and include dosing, cycle length, and any other info you feel is important.

EQ is a great steroid, especially for a beginner
Even if it converts to an Estrogenic compound, I've never heard of anyone getting gyno, bloat or ED from it
so it probably converts to a weaker Estrogen than Estradiol

Make sure you use enough of it.
Start with 600 mg/week, pyramid up to 800 or 1g if you can handle it.
So far it ain't clear if it increases Hematocrit more than other steroids. In case it does, get blood tests and donate blood twice during the cycle.

I'm on my second EQ run @600mg. I'm running it 24 weeks since I'm on TRT and don't have to worry about PCT.

EQ is definitely a mild one, but very effective. It will help you get stronger and more vascular. I also feel like the gains after a long cycle stick around better than other compounds I've tried. My hemocrit has stayed relatively in check, but I make sure to donate blood every 3 months. No bloat at all, but I'm on a pretty clean low cal diet as I'm recomping. Even then, strength is way up. Gyno is something I have to watch, but that's the test and not EQ.

EQ is definitely a great compound for bulking or cutting. It's more mild, so sides aren't bad and you can run it for a long cycle. I definitely recommend running it longer as the gains start getting better as time goes on.

I've been looking hard at EQ as well, but have never tried it. It seems comparable to primo in some ways and npp in others. I haven't found a compelling enough reason to try it instead of npp (when bulking) or primo (when cutting) except to go with something different just for kicks.
I'll be following this thread though to learn more.

EQ vs Deca/NPP

Eq Better quality muscle gains
Deca Lower quality gains

Eq slightly less gains
Deca better gains, albeit lower quality
(actually both Eq/Deca yield very nice quality gains as compared to Testosterone)

Eq no risk of gyno or ED
Deca a few get gyno, ED is common in Deca-only cycles

Due to primo high price/fakes
EQ is the new primo
although some say Masteron Enanthate is the new Primo on steroids

I am finishing up a cycle of Test/Eq/Dbol Kick..

I came off the EQ 2 weeks ago, but since having it, the pumps have been brilliant, same old story as what most others would say, great pumps & vascular as fuck.

I am not too sure in regards to strength gains as I have had the other compounds in the mix, but I have certainly bulked over the past 13 weeks, and I am sure the EQ gave me a boost, I only ran a low dose of 300mg pw.

Sorry it isn't much information, but if its anything to go by, I'll definitely be incorporating it into my next cycle also.

Its a good slow & steady supplement, so I will be trying a longer course most likely as you stated initially.

Edit: I forgot to mention my cycle is
1-16 300mg test & eq
1-5 30-50mg dbol week 1-5

I did 16 weeks on it and was not a fan. I dropped the EQ and added tren and masteron... I'd recommend NPP over EQ everyday. As for quality gains. I have no idea what that means. I do know if you eat like crap you will look like crap and it doesn't matter the compound. Bulking or cutting can be done with any compound with the right diet.

 

[Big_paul]

The downside is the long half life. You will need to run a 16 week or longer cycle and your last pin should be 5-6 weeks before you end your cycle.

Other than that it is a good AAS to run to keep tendons healthy. Just take into account you need to consider when to run pct with a 15 day hl

EQ vs Deca/NPP

Eq Better quality muscle gains
Deca Lower quality gains

do not pay attention to master.on, each post is more stupid from the previous

(cannot comment on whole post)

there is no such thing like lower quality gains, I do not know what the idiot is talking about

you get good gains on deca during cycle, EQ takes a little longer to kick in and you get less muscle but harder look this is why some people call it weak steroid

Actually you can make good gains if you do deca and EQ + test of course

 

[Test_Subject]

I prefer masteron to EQ, personally. You don't have to run it as long and it's just as mild.

 

[Kinetic]

I started out on a low dose (300mg/week) of EQ with test on my first cycle for the first 10 weeks, then 600/week for the last six weeks. I wasn't thrilled with it. It increased my appetite tremendously, but didn't feel like it gave me much of an edge in the gym. I also wasn't the 10% BF that many recommend to be on cycle, so that may have contributed to my *meh* feelings about it.

I won't be using it again anytime soon, though I am considering adding mast next time around.

 

[high-octane]

I like eq. Especially if your starting while already lean. It's best to run for at least 16wks @ 600mg. I have noticed that it makes me a little stiff if the mornings though. Nothing some good stretching can't take care of. Other than a slight increased appetite, good gains and no sides it's gtg in my book.

 

[elgriff]

My first pin years back was eq , I was always hungry as shit an hour after pinning. The cravings would start by my fifth pin

 

[Robfromga]

Op ignore Mater.on and you'll have a better life

If you're not gaining from Eq, the odds are your Eq isn't Eq.

And for God sake you dont need a fucking gram of Eq.

A good rule of thumb is run your test, say you're running 600mg/week then run about half of that in Eq. So 300ish.....maybe 400. But not a fucking gram.

 

[plisk]

honestly EQ has been shit in my experience looking back.

I'll entertain the possibility that all the forms of boldenone i have tried weren't real™ boldenone, but other than making me hungry or having a strange libido depressing effect, they have not been great for gains or strength. EQ in the veterinary literature is not regarded well as an anabolic by the way, in fact in some studies it failed to produce anything of value at all in horses, which is surprising since its still on the market today for vets. Perhaps it is of value in dogs.

 

[ironwill1951]

I run eq with almost every cycle, I have ran it from 300 mg a week to 900 mg a week , for me anything over 600 hundred is a waste, but it should be run for 16 weeks to 20 weeks after that the gains diminish, if you don't make gains on eq you should check your source or your diet.

Be aware that being Boldenone a veterinary drug, there are no well defined qyality reference standards, unlike the US Pharmacopeia for human use drugs.
Veterinary Drug Monographs - American Academy of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics

Only Boldenone UNDECYLENATE is widely registered for legal sale.
Other ones like Boldenone Acetate, Cypionate, Propionate, no ester, are made specifically for the black market thus totally unregulated and often of poor (untested) quality.

Boldenone by itself is a beginner's drug
beyond a certain point you'll need Dbol, Adrol, Tren or Test as your main mass/strength steroid.

 

[showstoppa]

Personally, I love eq and run it in every cycle. But and a big but it's not gonna pack on mass by itself. You have to eat an ass ton as it's main role is allowing the body to be more efficient in the processing of food.

But in my expierence it's more of a cosmetic drug. Makes you look and feel good. At higher doses it dose help a lot in keeping fat at bay when bulking though.

Imo need at least 800. I have run up to 1.5g and the higher I run it the more it shines, similar to primo.

are you calling me a beginner ?

I'll tell you that it absolutely raises hematocrit more, not even a question
