add dbol? Your thoughts please

[musclestack]

I will be running a Test/Npp cycle here in a few weeks, and I was considering adding dbol for the first 4 weeks. I have always been skeptical about adding orals like dbol and drol to a cycle. If 90%+ of the gains is water weight, is there any real advantage to adding these orals?

What are your thoughts?

[SMAN12b]

The advantage is the initial strength gain from it until your Test kicks in . there are ups and downs to it as you know. You can take an AI to help with the water retention if that is a problem for you

If your worried about dbol and bloat, why not kickstart w/ prop @ 75 mg/ed?

[gorgorothsatanis]

The amount that you bloat is very individualized. Some guys get moonfaces other guys barely bloat at all. I wouldn't say 90% of your weight gain on an oral cycle is water or else what the hell would be the point of taking orals? Dbol along with the NPP would be a great addition, there seems to be some magic that happens with Dbol and Nandrolone, don't ask me why.

Absolutely, I wouldn't say 90%=water weight is NOT a fair number at all. I would like to see the proven research for that. I have very minimal sides/water retention while on D-bol paired with an AI such as L-dex. It really helps with a nice kick start and helps the joints get going while you test is slowly building.

If you're not convinced go with the Prop, as previously stated.

Why not just do Test prop the whole time since you are doing NPP?

I actually am running Prop the whole time (forgot to mention this). It will look something like this:

Week 1-12 Prop @ 700 mg/wk
Week 1-10 Npp @ 500 mg/wk?

Do you think it would be pointless to add dbol for the first 4 weeks since I'm already using the Prop?

Also, what would be a good dosage for the Npp if I were to run the Prop at 700 mg/wk?

Thanks,

Yeah drop the Dbol if you are already running prop. I ran dbol as a kick start and wish I had used prop. I would run 50mg/ed of prop. But that is me, I didn't catch if this is your first cycle. If it is then 50/ed is goog, or 100mg/EOD.

hey muscle i'm gonna hopefully run a prop/npp cycle this spring wk1-8 prop 150 mg eod.npp 100 mg eod.this would be my 2nd cycle.that would come out to 525 mg prop and 350 mg npp

[musclestack]

Thanks, guys. No, this is not my first cycle. It is, however, the first time that I will be running Npp. The main reason I am asking about adding the dbol is because I was diagnosed with Mono a couple weeks ago, and I'm just now starting to get over it. I've lost some weight because of it, and I am just wanting to put on as much weight as possible to make up for what I lost. Do you still think that I should just stick to the Prop and leave the dbol out?
