Advanced Steroid Cycles
We were going to leave 'advanced steroid cycles' off Steroid-Cycles.com for a couple reason. First, anyone looking for advanced steroid cycles should know their body pretty well. They should know which steroids they like, which may have given them more side effects, and which gave them the most benefits. On top of that, any experienced user should know the dosage their steroid cycle will require. Second, advanced steroid users often make their steroid cycles more complicated than they need to be, adding way too many drugs and dosages that are way too high. An advanced cycle that is just fine is one we've mentioned a few times on here, Sustanon, Dianabol and Deca Durabolin, but obviously with higher dosages. But to give some people of advanced cycles, types the pros use, or a Ronnie Coleman steroids cycle, we created this page.
One of the biggest problems with sophisticated cycles is the cost. The cost of a single testosterone at 1,000mgs+ a week, alone gets fairly expensive. When the user adds in 2-3 more steroids the cycle gets quite expensive.

This is a fairly long 16 week cycle. The dosage would depend on the bodybuilder's experience with each steroids, which may be higher or lower than the above posted dosage. Human Growth Hormone(GH) is added to the cycle, and would be continued post cycle six months. Bodybuilders who use GH will often use it for years with little or no breaks. The bodybuilder would also have the appropriate drugs on hand to minimize side effects, such as, estrogen and progesterone gynecomastia. Proper post cycle therapy would also be taken after the cycle.

This is a long advanced cutting steroid cycle. Testosterone dosage is a bit lower, as the main goal is not to build muscle and size, but to burn fat and preserve muscle. Winstrol is taken at the beginning for a similar 'kick start' as Dianabol, but a little weaker. A five week Winstrol break is also taken in the middle of the cycle. Growth Hormone is taken at a lower dosage as it's main use is for health benefits and fat burning properties. Cytomel is used in the cycle a few weeks and can also be timed to finish around week 16. The most often recommended Cytomel scheduling: 3-4 days at 25mcgs, followed by 3-4 days at 50mcgs, followed by 3-4days at 75mcgs, followed by three weeks at 100mcgs, and then tapered down, similar to the way up. Cytomel is a powerful fat burning drug with limited research behind it. There are rumors of incorrect Cytomel usage permanently shutting down the body's thyroid, but there is no evidence of this actually happening.
As with all steroid cycles on this site, proper precautions should be used to minimize steroids. Proper research should be taken before taking any type of drug. No one should simply read one method and follow it. Steroid usage is a big step for a bodybuilder, and extensive research should take place.
