When bodybuilders get closer and closer to a show, what they choose for an anabolic steroid becomes more and more crucial. While training in the off-season, most bodybuilders can take pretty much any kind of steroid they can find and become successful with it.
Bloating and water retention are caused by a lot of steroids used, and it's usually not a problem. This is because the off-season is the time to add as much muscular weight to the body as possible. The trade off is that some level of water and body fat are also acquired during this time, and that is acceptable.
The problems with water retention and fat gains become a much more prevalent issues in the last few weeks right before a competition or contest. If you use the regular stack, you run the risk of looking bloated and less defined, involving the use of diuretics can solve this, but that could lead to more complications and might leave you feeling cramped when you walk out onto the stage. Masteron is one of the steroids that does not deliver the negative side effects.
There are many reasons why Masteron is quite a popular steroid among a lot of bodybuilders looking to cut right before shows. The first reason is that it has no properties that develop spikes in estrogen, as some other steroids do. This will ensure that the body won't suffer from Gynecomastia as well as other side effects. Since there is no fluctuation amongst estrogen levels in the body, there is no water retention.
It is well known that water retention will leave a ripped physique looking shapeless and watery. Masteron can be a great choice for the final weeks before a show when water levels in the body need to be monitored, manipulated and dropped.
One effect of Masteron is that it can cause muscles to harden and swell a small amount. This effect is very desirable to a bodybuilder who is training in the final weeks before competing. It would be difficult to notice the hardening and swelling of muscles during the off-season. But during the last couple of weeks prior to a show, it can add a great deal of quality to a ripped physique with almost no fat.
Even though Masteron doesn't deliver a rise in estrogen level, it does deliver on some of the other side effects cause from high levels of testosterone. Some of the effects can include accelerated male pattern baldness as well as acne. Other effects might include an increase of sex drive and aggression.
Masteron is not used as much now as it used to be, although it's usually still available in some circles, as well as manufactured in a delivery system that is specifically aimed at cutting stacks used right before events. Masteron is definitely worth a try if your options are limited, but it needs to be well researched and properly used.
