Been seeing conflicting results, took a dive into the steroid * cycle thread and noticed alot more people than I thought are picking masteron as a secondary compound to testosterone regardless of cutting / bulking phases.
Curious about the general consensus between these two drugs. I feel like depending on the forum/Influencer (vigorous steve is a great example who definetely favours primo over mast) one is more perferred over the other.
I use primo with every phase and cycle.
Ive used both, I feel like I perfer primo more as it directly affects my estrogen and I use it as an ancillary or an AI (confirmed with bloodwork). It is also just much safer mg per mg than masteron on my blood levels (Despite being much harsher on my wallet mg per mg).
Doses ive ran: 100-400mg primo always with test at a higher ratio usually 1:2 (primo:test) or 1.5:2
No, primo tablets do not count and I refuse to recognize them as a potential oral for any scenario, unless maybe youre a female.
I want a general consensus, not what youd pick during a lean bulk or cutting phase, if you had unlimited budget what would be your go to to run for the rest of your future cycles.
Everyone has their favourites and I don't think anyone can say for certain one outshines the other but for health reasons/positive side effects, my favourite compound next to test (TRT) is Primo. Benefits: Free test through the roof with a small dose with TRT (like an enhanced TRT adding in 100-150 mg of Primo per week). Within a few weeks my free test is 3-4 times the top of the range of normal but my total test does not budge.
It significantly increases my libido which is a nice side effect.
Never once has it impacted my prostate, BP, or impacted one blood marker negatively. The opposite with it comes to lymphocytes (for me) - it increased my number mildly over an extended period. Not out of range but increased the number.
In general it makes me feel better - can't put the perfect adjective down (confidence, happiness, not sure but it does something that is positive) and I do not have any mental issues (no stigma for those who do - those diseases/issues are no different that diabetes) such as depression or anxiety.
It does make my hair shed a little faster but that is it for negatives.
People complain of PIP from higher mg/ml but I have never felt anything but the highest was 150 mg/ml. When I first started using a compound that caused some PIP that lingered, I put Primo in the same syringe and it helped to some degree.
Most of all - I find lower dosed prolonged cycles (if your dose is low as in a total of 250 mg) for 6 months, you can make good growth gains/physique changes and keep the majority of it. There is something about Primo that makes me grow slowly but it is much easier to keep for the long haul. Keep in mind 5 lbs in 6 months would be considered progress. If everyone gained 10 lbs of solid muscle a year - can you imagine how big everyone would be in 5 years hence why this is a turtle sport if you want to do it as healthy as possible and be enhanced like
@Hussell says - 50% natty lol. He looks like a 50% natty beast over 300 lbs with the strength to go with it.
It can't compete with Deca or other compounds for strength or size even at low dose deca (100-150 Deca/NPP mg per week) but I will always choose 100 mg of test / 50 mg of Primo over 150 mg of test or vice versa (as an example) and that is just personal preference. It isn't a recommendation - I believe
@Oldguyjiujitsu comment on test rings true. I just love the compound.
