Vitruvian's Steroid Profile of NPP (deca)

[Vitruvian-Man]

Hey, how’s it going everyone?

I know I’m relatively new here, but I have noticed one thing about this forum: No one seems to have a clue what NPP is, or what it is used for! lol

Thus, I’ve decided to create my own steroid -profile for NPP, and simultaneously outline my various experiences with the compound.

For anyone who still doesn’t know what I’m talking about, NPP is a relatively new product, and is considered to be one of the few actively marketed steroids that was produced within the past 10 years.

Disclaimer: I have utilized NPP in basically every protocol: cutting, bulking, and maintaining; however, my advice is all from personal experience. Follow at your own risk, as I am not a certified professional / M.D.

Let’s begin, NPP stands for the chemical name: “nandrolone phenyl-propionate .” It’s often considered the “brother” of Deca , and this is because they are both very similar in molecular structure, with the exception of different esters attached to the molecule. (phenyl-prop v.s. deconate.)

Furthermore, the compounds half-life is around 72 hours, and as a result, there is often debate regarding the timing of NPP injection protocol. (So I’m going to address each of them individually, because injection protocols are completely reliant on goals IMO.)

Benefits of NPP compared to Deca:

a.) Little to no water retention
b.) Instant lubrication of joints, and pain-relief to injection sites.
c.) Fast acting
d.) Compound clears system only a couple of days after secession of use; and does not leave you terribly shut down for prolonged periods of time like deca.
e.) IMO faster recovery of the HPTA after cycle, because of ^^

Downfalls of NPP compared to Deca:

a.) Often a need for more frequent injections
b.) Sometimes can be painful injections

FAQ #1: “Can I utilize NPP for cutting, and how?”

A: Yes absolutely. NPP is a great compound for cutting. It will provide minimal water retention, and stacks very well with prop. Moreover, because it lubricates the joints it has excellent synergy with winstrol (if at a low BF), and eliminates winstrol’s worst side affect – dry joints.

My typical NPP cutter:
(weeks 1 – 10) Prop @ 75mg ED
(weeks 1 – 9) NPP @ 75mg ED
(weeks 5 – 10) Winstrol @ 50mg ED

^^ Notice that when I use Prop with NPP, I follow an “each day injection protocol”

FAQ #2: “Can I utilize NPP for bulking (especially lean bulking??)”

A: YES! Once again, NPP is an excellent choice for this form of bulking. The reason: NPP will provide you with a quick 10 – 15 pounds within 10 weeks of use, until secession of the compound. Moreover, because NPP is fast-acting, one will begin to see the results from it within 5 – 7 days of use. (Also, great strength gains from NPP)

My typical NPP bulker:
(weeks 1 – 14) Test-E @ 600mg EW
(weeks 1 – 13) NPP @ 525mg (each week) but EOD protocol
(weeks 9 – 16) Anavar @ 70mg ED

^^ Notice that during Bulkers I generally inject EOD

FAQ #3: “Can I use NPP similarly to Deca for therapeutic benefits?”

A: ABSOLUTELY! This is one of those things that I feel the medical community will eventually figure out. Often, doctor’s / HRT clinics will prescribe deca @ a low dosage of 100 – 250mg EW for it’s therapeutic benefits. I believe that eventually NPP may take deca’s place.

My typical NPP therapeutic cycle:

(weeks 1 – 10) Test-E @ 200mg
(weeks 1 – 9) NPP @ 200mg EW (but following EOD protocol)

^^ As you can see, I would keep the Test @ a low dosage, perhaps even a TRT dosage. Keep the NPP low, and break the injections up. 50mg x 4 injections a week = 4 injection sites that feel AMAZING, and well lubricated.

FAQ #4: "I like the above protocol ^^ but I don't like injecting.. Can I inject it every 3.5 days with my TRT dosage?"

A: Not a problem. That's another benefit of NPP. The half live of the compound is short, but JUST long enough that it can be used under this protocol.

Typical TRT + Therapeutic Cycle:

(weeks 1 - 10) Test-C @ 100 - 150mg EW
(weeks 1 - 10) NPP @ 100mg x 2 injections per week = ~ 200mg EW.

FAQ #5: "I have Deca, and want to use NPP as a kick-start... is that possible?"

A: YUP! That's fine. Run it the same way you would kick-start with prop on a Test-E cycle.

(weeks 1 - 12) Test-E @ 500mg EW
(weeks 1 - 10) Deca @ 500mg EW
(weeks 1 - 5) NPP @ 75mg ED or 125mg EOD.

Phew, finished. Ok, well I hope you guys enjoyed the read. BTW, I’ve kept all the dosages very moderate on this page, so if anyone has any special circumstances, and want to alter the dosages, or wants to stack additional compounds, etc... feel free to PM me and I’ll try and aid you as much as possible. I have run NPP at extreme dosages, and can relate to most any question . Have a good one boys; Thanks for reading.
