orals in general are just much more potent drugs mg for mg.. I believe this is because of how they are broken down and metabolized by the liver. heck even IGF levels go up much higher when running orals because the liver increases IGF output when processing 17 alka oral steroids (compared to oils).
heres examples of how powerful orals are
Tren ace can be ran at 100mg per day..
Methyl Tren ("oral tren") can be ran at only like 1-2mg per day . yes 1 mg per day.. some guys run it in mcg's only and its very potent at that low a dose
EQ can be ran at 1500mg per week
Dbol (which is oral EQ) is very potent at only 50mg per day (350mg per week).. thats a quarter of the dose and you'll get more size with the Dbol at that low a dose then EQ at the high dose
something about the methylation and 17 alka process and the way the liver has to break these things down just seems to increases the potency big time.. that higher potency will result in more strength (dependent on the drug)
