Made my own Synthol

[MajorPectorial]

needs to be a "synthol" sticky or even its own forum unless of course there already is and I don't know about it. A lot of folks would like to know more about it including myself, not that I would ever use but hell, if I could get away with another 2" on my arms and calves I just might do it for summer months.

Gotta admit. Only reason I know a fair bit was because looking into it. But. Whoo. There is an insane amount of constant n I mean constant massaging which I hear can be quite painful. Before. During. After workouts. Throughout the day. No joke. As said before its long term commitment

[growfast]

yes bro, massaging is the key, I am runnning again a biceps cycle and I'm quite happy with the outcome so far.

[Gaspari1255]

Well, I'm going through with my homebrewed "Synthol" and I will keep everyone updated with pictures...I can make the stuff so cheap that I could afford to run a bunch of it monthly..I know it's not going to be as strong as the Synthosizze by Palumbo or the Syntherol by Synthetek, but if it's half as strong and gives me an inch- why the hell not?

To be continued...

Jeez OP, I'm sorry to hear that. You are telling me, pumped, flexed, your arms are 17.25 inches? At 270 lbs?
I'm just making sure I got that right.

I'm glad some people on here are aware of the uses of MCT oil. I won't personally use it until I'm over 250 lbs, but like some have said, there is a place for everything.

Like my mother said, you do something bad, something bad is going to happen. Case and point, Greg V.

I find it amazing how everyone is willing to be so easily swayed. Just like anything, for all the positive effects there are much more negative. Does anyone care to wonder what are the long term effects are on your health? Well we are beginning to see those effects....

Synthol demolishes muscle tissue -Ergo-log.com)(There, all better???)

Synthol is no longer a novelty. Some bodybuilders have been injecting themselves for years with a mixture of 85 percent MCT oil, 7.5 percent lidocaine and 7.5 percent alcohol, targeting muscle groups they feel are not growing fast enough. Surgeons are now starting to notice the long-term effects of the Synthol rage: and they are not mild.

Synthol was concocted in the 1990s by the bodybuilding guru Chris Clarke. It's a 'site enhancement oil', consisting of fatty acids that accumulate in the muscle tissue where you inject the oil. As a result muscles grow at a fantastic rate. Bodybuilders like Greg Valentino developed an unnatural physique by using the substance – and became world famous. Peter Hiesinger followed his example – and became ill. On websites like syntholfreaks.com you can see the pics of adepts of Valentino and Hiesinger.

Doctors have already written about the dangers of bodybuilders injecting themselves with oil, [J Am Acad Dermatol. 2000 Feb;42(2 Pt 1):292-4.] but more recently case studies have started to appear that describe the long-term effects on bodybuilders who injected themselves with Clarke’s brainchild years ago. Injected fat, the study has shown, causes inflammations that decimate muscles over time.

This happened for example to the 29-year-old bodybuilder that the surgeon Suleiman Ghandourah of University Hospital Marburg wrote about in the Journal of Medical Case Reports. Four years ago he started injecting Synthol into his biceps, but recently these muscles started to play up. They hurt so much that the man had to stop training, and in the end he was constantly in extreme pain.

The man's biceps [below left] not only looked strange, they felt strange too. It looked as though they had developed holes in them. When the doctors made an MRI scan of the man's right biceps – which was in worse condition - they saw that the muscle was now made up of separate parts. There was oil between the muscle fibres [below left] and the remaining muscle tissue was inflamed.







The doctors decided to amputate the most seriously damaged part of the biceps, a piece measuring 11 x 5 x 5 cm. This helped. Six months later the bodybuilder asked the doctors to perform the same treatment on his other biceps.

Doctors at the Klinikum Rechts der Isar der Technischen Universitaet Munchen published a similar case study in October 2012 in the International Journal of Sports Medicine. [Int J Sports Med. 2012 Oct; 33(10): 829-34.] A 40-year-old bodybuilder had been injecting himself with sesame oil for eight years. His arms had become so painful that he could no longer train. Doctors asked for an MRI scan and found over one hundred oil-filled cysts in the muscles spread throughout his body.








The doctors operated on the man's arms [click on the link above at your own risk]. They discovered to their amazement that the man had almost no muscle tissue left in his arms. His arms were filled with pus and fat. The surgeons removed these, but when they did an MRI scan a year later they saw that hardly any muscle tissue had been restored. Three years after the operation the man was still suffering from pain – and could no longer train at all.

Each bodybuilder shown on syntholfreaks.com [syntholfreaks.com] is labelled as 'Another Synthol Victim'. It's an apt description.

Your right. I pretended to take those pics, have names of drs. off the top of my head. I put the name of the article in bold. I did this in the morning on first cup of coffee. So so sorry. How bout next time I wont even bother to post.

Ok, so many many different opinions on this thread. I thought I could add a little humor to this conversation. Check out synthol Ray!

Many bodybuilders after yrs of training have certain bodyparts what don't match up the the rest IE biceps, this is due to many things but one of them could be that the fascia what surrounds the muscle is to tight and limits further growth, no matter what they do it wont grow because of the restriction what envelopes the muscle, its just to tight.

When synthol is used correctly with a properly protocol and maintenance period you can stretch the fascia and make it more flexible, this is done by a injection protocol and stretching program, it is painful but if done correctly it can achieve good results. I've also seen it mentioned by various ppl that you can stretch a gap between the muscle and fascia by using the oil, this is wrong you cant make a gap between the fascia and muscle all what can be done is make the fascia more flexible by expanding it so new muscle can be grown without the restriction of a tight fascia.

Ive used it a few times and no one ever could tell because I knew how to inject it and how I could use it to help me build a bigger bodypart. Majority of the top pro's use it and that's a fact. Ive adviced many bodybuilders on using it but I would say its only for the advanced and you should make sure that every avenue has been attacked to make the lagging bodypart grow and you have got years under your belt of hard training.

It's coconut oil with a bit of benzyl alcohol

It's going to do nothing at all
It's just adding volume of an extremely thin refined oil with a tiny amount of benzyl alcohol.
It's going to be sore and at most with the amount of oil needed chances are you may get a sterile abscess.

The mass produced stuff with silica and other compounds is dangerous for sure

[Hazard]

While informational...... The link has nothing to do with what the OP asked. He's not running synthol for the next 3 years and he's not trying to be the next Greg Valentino. Would you like a link on aas and heart disease? How about smoking or drinking?

Everything is bad for you today..... If used in moderation and responsibly it can be fairly safe. ESPECIALLY with the ingredients he used......

[Sledgehammer1]

So what does your post have to do with what the OP asked. Seems to me its all about trying to make my contribution to the conversation meaningless. Im against synthol, that's my opinion. Unless you are a top competitior that needs to take that risk in order to stay on an even playing field. My intent was to show that there are signs that it is causing harm. It was in response to all the positive posts by other members. I don't really give a shit about synthol, would never touch it. That's just me....

But we determined we weren't talking about synthol
Just sterile coconut oil

Regaurdless of what oil is used, wouldn't multiple injections, with larger amounts of oil, into smaller muscle groups, begin to build up scar tissue? Just a thought. Ill leave it there so not to take away from the OP post.

No you are correct that's why I suggested adding some test base to the sterile oil, at least get some anabolic effect from injecting all this oil.

Fact is without the silica which is featured in all of the branded SEO's available it's just putting oil into a muscle that's it.

17" guns are nothing to be ashamed of. Lots of folks lie about there arm size and even with a tape around it they still can add a false inch anyway. Very very rarely do you see a fella in the gym with legit 20'' guns. I happen to have awesome genetics for arms and can pump mine to 18" at less than 220lbs, just give me an ez curl bar and im off to the races. calves are my weak point.

Not trying to jack the thread back on topic I believe synthol may not be as bad as others have made it out to be. Folks like greg and that Egyptian dumbass have given it a bad rep. But like some say, unless I was competing against the best I would probably not do it at least in a logical sense of mind.

But damn, 280lbs with 17's OP's quads must be 35" , sounds like he just needs to bring his arms up to par and he will be where he wants to be.

I've been running my homemade stuff for about a week now. 1ml in each tricep/bicep head every other day. I'm up half an inch. Solid and dense look, but sore as hell. I'll inform you folks as I go.....

It's a pain in the ass to do the shots. You just have to decide if it's worth it.

After all was said and done, I didn't gain any size from the seo I took.

[kawasaki1]

I used Syntherol some years back on bis and tris and ended of keeping just over 2" overall once inflammation subsided...So just over an 1" on bis and an 1" on tris.....

[Psaletta]

Not to jump off subject. Does spot injection of aas really aid in size?

[GSXRvi6]

Injecting silica directly into muscle tissue to me sounds like a really bad idea. I can understand a pro doing whatever they can do to get an edge, but for the average joe, that's just way to much vanity for the risk, for me anyway.

natural silica is not dangerous. is found in many natural foods.
