    Synthol-Whats it good for?

    http://www.thomas-galvin.com/blog/?p=120

    Just look at those images. Synthol seems to suck. Why would anyone want to look like that?

    So tell me, what good is Synthol for and how can bodybuilders use it. Are there any sides to Synthol? Do you get aggression on it? Are the effects instantaneous without any training needed?

    Synthol is just MCT oil with Benzyl Alcohol and usually something else added depending on who makes it, like Silica, Collogan, etc.
    Its intended use it to stretch the muscle fascia beyong what simple stretching can do, and by dramatically stretching the fascia, it gives way to more room for your actual muscle to grow (since the muscle fascia is a big restriction on muscle growth).

    Most of the time it has no AAS in it (I say most of the the because I heard there is one company who does put AAS in it, but thats a different story). So since it is basically just MCT oil, there are no real side effects.
    Ofcourse, with irresponsible use, you can always get yourself hurt. The most simple example is getting a bad infection.

    x2... this applies to everything. The only reason certain drugs get a bad rep is cause someone decides to abuse it. There are a lot of very esthetically pleasing physiques which used synthol to bring the lagging parts into proportion. Its when you want to look like a freak that you actually do. Most of the time its people trying to rush to a desired size (ex 25" arms)... if you are 16" and want to be 25 in the next 3 months, you will look like those horror stories.

    Wow, these guys look messed up. How stupid do they you be to do this. I mean, it just looks terrible.

    Not only do they need some medical help, they need to see a damn psychiatrist.

    most of the top IFBB Pro's use synthol.....

    When synthol is used CORRECTLY - it's not so easy to tell that they used it.....

    Failure is not and option..... ONLY beyond failure is - Haz

    Think beyond yourselves and remember this forum is for educated members to help advise SAFE usage of AAS, not just tell you what you want to hear

    Synthol is used by advanced bodybuilders who want to bring up a lagging body part for contest or to try and stretch the fasica by implementing an injection protocol when running a bulking cycle.

    Do you any of you guys use, or have used, Synthol? Does Synthol cause any increased aggression like AAS do?

    Its just oil, nothing else and shouldnt be used by newbies. You should nt be thinking of synthol you should look at your diet and training for further gains

    I am quite seriously considering SEO in my triceps.... Nothing makes them grow. Training for 7 years, tried high reps, low reps, moderate reps, light weight, heavy weight, compound movements, isolation movements, explosive speed, slow and controlled, training them with chest, training them with shoulders, training them on an "arm only day", training them on a day just devoted to triceps, training them once every two weeks,all the way up to every other day, etc. They get dense, they get strong, but they do not grow....

    Just look at my avatar for an example of my triceps. I got good back, broad shoulders, then these flat little sticks called arms where my triceps should be.

    they dont stay filled with oil in proper usage. Those idiots just keep pumping more shit in day after day and their arms look like colostomy bags.

    Used properly, it just stretches the fascia so the muscle can grow and expand. After 3-4 months the oils dissipates and hopefully you grew that muscle group

    so will the oil leave these guys arms or do they just keep refilling? or is there to much for it to be gone in this life time?
