    DBol half life and sleeping

    Dbol 's half-life is 6-8 hours. since i sometimes sleep more than that, is this asking for side effects.

    just wanted to hear some opinions. should you wake up to take another tab, or just make sure you take one before bed and then one as soon as you wake up?

    what do you guys normally do?

    I would take one every 12 hours, that way it is evenly split up. Depending on the dose, if you were taking 40mg you could split it up in 4 doses through out the day, but I have seen most people just split it up into 2 doses. I would think you could take one in the morning and one 6 to 8 hours later, and not worry about sleep, because the bodies metabolisim slows when you sleep, so you really don't need the dbol then.

    I think that is why most people split up the dose, to keep an even amount of the steroid in there system for a longer time.

    5mg of dbols?


    15mg spaced out is not going to cause more or less sides imo...

    THe purpose of spacing out doses it to stablize levels and keep your body in a so called anabolic state.

    Also if your taking 5mg every 8 hours a part 8hrsx6tabs= 48 hours... how would that work?

    There will be some debate on this,
    Question is, would it be better to take larger amounts of the hormone at one time or space smaller dosages out throughout the day?

    Try it both ways and see how it affects you.

    ahhh just saw your running at 3hours apart... my mistake...however if your taking it 3 hours apart then techinically your not really getting into the first dose's half-life anyways...

    I'd personally take larger dosages 8-12hrs apart rather than smaller dosages so close together.

    I think it will affect you differently.

    but 12 hrs apart is past the half-life

    It is NOT like taking prop every 3 days. By that outlook well I hope your shooting winny three time a day if you every run the injectible version of that too since the half-life is 8 hours. Dont get so stressed man, twice a day is fine, wakin up in the middle of the night to take d-bol is just WAY overboard and I guarantee will yield you nothing more in terms of results or sides.

    i think you misunderstood,

    i stated but this is past the halif life in hopes that someone would explain how it is ok to do so every 12 hrs. i wasn't argueing. i should have put a question mark at the end of that

    lol.. Dbol is a waste anyhow

    Go get some Drol.

    IMO orals aren't really needed and don't do much for muscle growth but more for the perception of gaining LBM. The majority of the weight gained is water which in turn helps increase strength and intensity in the gym, so I wouldn't say they aren't worth taking but they don't do much considering the sides/gains ratio IMO.

    What a question, I will be straight to the point. Do not split your dbol regiment if your taking less than 30mg every day, however if you are taking say 60mg a day, then I would suggest you split 30/30 a day for optimum distribution in your circulatory system. If you have question please feel free to pm me for more advise.

    Because the drug has passed its half life, it is no longer working, but the effects of the drug last longer, so you can take it passed the half life and still be good.

    hahaha

    this coming from you? you don't have a clue and your opinions are not valued here as they posses no credibility whatsoever. you are insisting to take a substance once every 24 hrs regardless of the fact that it has a half life much much shorter than that. go back to counting numbers. we are busy here.

    back to the legitamite ppl on this thread, i have decided to go with 2 doses throughout the day. thanks boys. it's just that when i read the half life i assumed to keep the levels nice and steady. hence the spaced out doses. but i asked cos i have never used it b4 and research is good but better to have research and first hand experince.

    Three times/day would be ideal but isn't necessary IMO.

    If it matters that much then take is at say 7am, 3pm, and 11pm
    Or AM, mid-day(pre training), PM.
    Don't over complicated it

    there are several different ways to take d-bol mate,i have read articles which state to take it all in one hit in the morning,split it evenly throughout the day and even to take the whole lot an hour before you train,just because the active life is 6-8 hours it will still be in your system....
    trial and error mate,i have taken it everyway you can think of and i have always got the same results...........................

    As the other guys said don't complicate a simple thing. I've gone as far as taking a dose every 4 hours 6x per day, and it made no difference over how I take them now which is all of it in a single dose.
