However the effects of Dianabol are greatly underappreciated. For one, it has the obvious positive affects of immense strength and size gains..almost immediately. It is very anti-catabolic.. it is a cortisol blocker (until the body catches up and adapts after a couple of weeks). Some even report positive mood changes while using it.
You certainly will lose the water weight that you've gained. A lot of people on here say that the only thing you gain from Dbol is pure water weight. This is bullshit. After the cessation of your cycle, you will lose some of the 'gains' on the scale. However with proper PCT, there's no reason you shouldn't keep at least 50% of the poundage that you've gained. You will lose a good amount of the strength, but this is true with any AAS.
Sexual side affects will be nill if you keep the cycle no longer than 3-4 weeks. High blood pressure and bad cholesterol values are still possible issues.
I don't have to use the couple people from the gym recently for examples. Look back at the Pumping Iron era. Guess what their staple ergogenic aid was..
Too many people hear something and take it as gospel and spread the word. People who are new to the game then again take that as gospel and spread it. I feel there's a lot of misinformation.. not just about Dianabol
