anadrol is the more powerful compound, but they both have merit
however, the mechanism through which anadrol causes gynecomastia is not widely understood. while anadrol is not believed to be estrogenic in nature, it does, if I recall correctly, demonstrate an affinity for the estrogen receptor. as a result, the measures that must be taken to prevent gynecomastia while using anadrol remain a mystery… though you cannot go wrong with letrozole, as it does a great job of reducing E2 (around 55-60%).
dbol on the other hand, directly converts to estrogenic substance… IIRC, it converts to a MORE estrogenic compound than estradiol itself. Letrozole would be very useful here as well (im a bit biased, as it is my favorite AI, but it IS the best available).
dbol is a great addition to any cycle, as is anadrol. however, the latter tends to leave users with rather undesirable side effects - such as loss of appetite, which, in my opinion, is reason enough to limit its use to precontest/dieting phases to preserve strength and size.

why letro over aromasin walkway?[/quote]
letro is better at reducing E2, is more capable of maintaining stable levels in body (aromasin should be dosed ED… 2x ED optimally, taken with food).
etc.
however, aromasin is easier on the lipid profile. [/quote]
i’d argue that aromasin is more stable, because it can build up to consistent blood levels in a week (similar to anastrozole) vs a month for letro. and that’s with daily dosing, respectively…
but in the whole scheme of things, they all tend to reduce E2 approximately the same…
EDIT: also, the multiple daily dosing of aromasin is bunk:
“The mean baseline levels of estradiol and testosterone were 24.5 ± 8.8 pg/ml and 581 ± 165 ng/dl, respectively. Maximal suppression of estradiol (62 ± 14%) was observed 12 h after a single 25-mg dose of exemestane. Estradiol remained suppressed by 58 ± 21% at 24 h and returned to baseline 3â??6 d after treatment.”
I’ve never had sides from Anadrol as far as I know. I never run more than 100mg ED. Always with 500mg TUDCA ED and I pulse it to minimise organ damage. Anadrol hepatotoxicity is overstated IMO. Oral tren and cheque drops are far more toxic. I like to pulse drol over 5-8 weeks then 3 weeks Winstrol to shed some water.
I don’t like diueretics and I’m not a competitive bber so I don’t need them. Winny works pretty well for drying out after a wet bulk. Got to keep e2 low, minimise salt, drink a gallon of water a day and eat clean though. Winny will destroy your tendons though so it’s not for powerlifters or athletes.
