No doubt you have heard the term ‘Synthol’ tossed around bodybuilding circles for years, but do you really know what it is? Let’s examine some of the basics behind this wildly popular, often mocked and seldom understood concept.
When you inject steroids, you are actually inserting two compounds into your body. The first is the steroid itself. In many cases, that is synthetic testosterone. However, injecting testosterone alone wouldn’t be all that effective. It would be consumed by your body in a matter of hours, rendering it useless. Luckily, researchers discovered early on that using oil as a transporting agent to keep the testosterone in the bloodstream was the key to making steroids work in the long-term. You’ll notice some drugs, such as testosterone suspension, are mixed with water and not oil. As a ...Posted in: Steroid Articles | | Comments (0)

Q: Are Esiclene and Synthol considered steroids?
A: No. They are, however, muscle fillers. At least synthol is. The exact action of Esiclene, which has been out of fashion for some time, is not known. Both of these give the illusion of size, because they either swell up the muscle (Esiclene) or fill up the muscle with product (synthol). Synthol is technically considered a volumizer. Esiclene, an irritant that causes edema. The muscle ends up looking watery and bloated and, while it creates size, it masks definition and anything remotely like maturity. Synthol and Esiclene both can lead to infections and abscesses and can cause substantial tissue and nerve damage because they are injected into limbs, typically. Some people are going to plastic surgeons to directly inject silicone into the muscle instead. No matter what you do cosmetically, it’s ...Posted in: Steroid Q&A | | Comments (0)

Esiclene is very popular in the bodybuilding world, despite the fact it’s unlike any other steroid. Let’s address some of the commonly asked questions regarding its use in the sport.
What is Esiclene?
It’s technically a steroid; A very weak steroid, actually. Being neither highly anabolic nor androgenic, it’s not often used for its long-term muscle building properties by adults.
How is Esiclene used by bodybuilders?
When Esiclene is injected, it causes localized swelling in the injection zone. It is painful to inject. However, this swelling is desirable for many bodybuilders who possess a structural flaw. Many African-American bodybuilders have very small calves thanks to their genetic makeup. When injected, Esiclene creates swelling in the area which makes the muscle appear larger. Likewise, many bodybuilders of all racial make-ups suffer from long, and flat, biceps muscles. ...Posted in: Steroid Articles | | Comments (0)

Q: I heard about a new drug called Macrolane - I heard from one guy that it's a new steroid, but I also heard it's like synthol and can beef up your muscles fast! I want to know where I can find it so that I can make my arms and calves bigger. Know anything about it? Someone else said it was specifically a new calf implant material. So what is it?
A: Well, it's a cosmetic dermal filler (injected into skin to beef up areas) made from hyaluronic acid and is extremely dense. It's being used in the U.S. and UK quite a lot for breast enhancement. It's a temporary cosmetic enhancement and dissolves in the body over the course of 18 months to two years, but is highly successful in accomplishing fullness in whatever area it is ...Posted in: Steroid Q&A | | Comments (0)

Substance: Synthol
Synthol is an intermuscular fatty acid that bodybuilders are now using to give increased size in small muscle groups. Gains of 1 inch in muscles like the calves, biceps, and shoulders are not unheard of. Synthol is actually a synthetic oil that is injected right in to the muscles you want to enhance in size. The way that this product works is that it becomes encapsulated between the fasicles (bundles of muscle fibers). Upon repeated injections, a huge bolus of the oil accumulates, adding volume to the injected muscle. About 30% of the amount injected will be broken down by your enzyme system and is metabolized like a normal fat because of its unique chemical structure. It will not be stored as bodyfat but will be burned very fast as fuel. The remainder of about 70% of ...Posted in: Steroid Profiles | | Comments (1)
