Boldenone Undecylenate (Equipoise)

Drug Class: Anabolic-Androgenic Steroid (AAS)
Type: Injectable
Common Brand Names: Equipoise, Ganabol, Ultragan
Use (Clinical / Recreational):

• Clinical: Previously used in veterinary medicine to treat horses
• Recreational: Used for lean muscle gain, endurance, and appetite stimulation

Half-Life: ~14 days
Administration: Intramuscular injection, 1–2x weekly
Typical Recreational Dose: 300–600mg/week
Cycle Duration: 12–16 weeks (due to long half-life)

Primary Benefits:

• Steady, lean muscle gains
• Increases appetite (varies by user)
• Enhances red blood cell production and endurance
• Minimal water retention

Common Side Effects:

• Acne and oily skin
• Increased hair shedding (in androgen-sensitive users)
• Mild water retention at higher doses
• Raised blood pressure

Serious Risks:

• Suppresses natural testosterone production
• Thickens blood (↑ RBC and haematocrit) – increased clot risk
• May negatively affect cholesterol (↓ HDL, ↑ LDL)
• Long detection time (up to 5 months) – not suitable for tested athletes

Mitigation / Harm Reduction Tips:

• Monitor haematocrit and donate blood if elevated
• Keep dosage moderate to reduce cardiovascular strain
• Run regular bloods: RBC, lipids, liver function, hormone panel
• Always stack with testosterone to avoid libido and mood suppression
• Not ideal for cutting phases due to possible appetite stimulation

Stacking Considerations:

• Often used with Test E or C for lean bulking
• Avoid with other RBC-raising compounds (e.g. Tren) unless well-monitored
• Can be paired with orals (e.g. Turinabol) for synergy

PCT Needs:

• Required unless on TRT
• Begin 3 weeks after last injection due to long half-life
• Typical protocol:
  • Nolvadex 40/40/20/20
  • Clomid 50/50/25/25
  • Consider extending PCT if cycle length was >14 weeks
