D-bol for Bridging???

What are you guys take on it? Not to descredit anyone, just because I might try it.

The Dianabol Bridge Explained


I've been reading some of the posts regarding this
bridge and some of them are truly from left-field.
First of, this is a BRIDGE. OK? a B-R-I-D-G-E.

Your LH function and Test levels are supposed
to RECOVER.

Ok, now having said that.
Here's the pharmo-kinetics behind Methandrostenelone,
brand name Dianabol.

10mg taken at once will increase your average testosterone level by 5 times and decrease your endogeneous cosrtisone
by 50-70%.

The reason why dianabol is a good choice for a bridge is that
its VERY anti-catabolic. It also dopaminergic. Giving you the
benefits of increased CNS strength modulation by
its androgenic mode of action.
Androgens, in case you don't know, increase neuro-muscular
function, thus STRENGTH.

OK. Now, lets delve into the metabolic chemistry behind
dianabol's choice as a bridging agent.

When are testosterone levels highest?

Answer: In the AM, thats when.

Your body releases a tesosterone spike in the morning.
This is when tesosterone levels are highest.

When are Insulin levels lowest?

Answer: In the AM thats when.

Low insulin levels=increased protein used as fuel.
(Also fat, but protein is also being converted
to glucose via glucogenesis)

OK, here is where dball's short half-life works for us
(Its 3.2-4.5 hrs btw)

Lets take Subject X.

He's in bridging mode.
He has just woken up.
The body is about to release tesosterone, thus
creating a spike.
His insulin levels are low.
His LH and test levels are very low.



He pops 10mgs of dianabol.

Here is where things get interesting.

The 10mgs of dianabol will cause a testosterone
spike WHICH COINCIDES WITH the testosterone
released ENDOGENEOUSLY in the AM by the testes.

The body will be partially fooled.
It will not entirely detect the increased levels of testosterone
(above the normal test sipke), thus LH function WILL
REMAIN only partially(Very little actually) suppressed.

In other words, he is "piggy-backing" an extra dose of testosterone on top of the endogeneously reduced one,
thus creating an "inflated" test spike.

Henceforth, LH levels WILL BE ALLOWED TO SLOWLY
RECOVER over time.
Also, dballs anti-catabolic effect will help curb protein-loss
in the morning from low insulogenic levels.

HOWEVER, and here is where almost all of you go wrong.

You CANNOT GO PAST 10mg of dianabol in the AM
for this bridge to work!!!!

Why? Because of the blood levels of dianabol you would generate.

10mg in the AM will be broken down to 5mg in about 4 hrs
(Probably less)

5mg of dianabol, is not enough to cause another rise
in testosterone levels after the precceeding one. Thus,
LH function is allowed to up-regulate.

Anything more(Say 20mgs), will cause a SEDCONDARY
testosterone spike which WILL inhibit LH function further,
thus not allowing LH function to recover.

Oh yeah...100mgs? ROTLMFAO!! Fat chance.

The difference between 20mgs and 10mgs means the difference
between allowing LH to recover slowly and not allowing it to.

So, here's the scenario summed up:

Beginning: LOW LH and test.

Adding the 10mgs dball.

LH is allowed to SLOWLY RECOVER over time as
testosterone levels are kept at a level which
will not cause muscle-loss. Also, dball's anti-catabolic effects
will reduce protein degradation.(Via cortisone
reduction)

This is what i call a double positive. You have managed to
INCREASE anabolism(Test levels) and DECREASE
catabolism(cortisone), during a bridge to boot!!

The bridge should last 8 weeks, NO LESS.
I also have to say, that it WILL NOT restore
complete LH function. It'll get you 80-90%
of the way there but the only way you're going
to get your full LH function back is if you go OFF
completely.
Anavar WILL NOT restore LH completely either btw.
(In case anybody is wondering.)
The difference is that with anavar you can take it
throughout the day and with dball it HAS TO BE
once in the AM.

ya i read that too.. just not know what to think about it.. i've alway been a big fan of letting your natural test level to come back before starting another cycle.. and IMO the only thing to bridge with is HGH

What about primo @ 200mg p/w?
I have bridged w/ d-bol @10mg p/d a.m. and it works for me. Going to try Primo this time.

Primo and anavar are good but nothing beats GH for bridging.

But look at the price difference between D-bol and GH.....

so how many

...of you have tried this and liked the results...and what came out of it besides getting your nuts back...

Read that too...............good post!

Deca...Gear101 what are your thoughts?

Bstrong.... ?

Bump, who else has tried the dbol bridge?

An interesting read. Has anyone tried this?

there has been alot of talk on this subject recently. I have read where people that have done this swear that it works. If you read the pharmacology it sounds like it would work. I am going to give it a try at the end of my current cycle.

GH is too expensive for a bridge for me. When you couple that with the handling issues I'll give the inexpensive and readily available dbol a try.

Keep us posted on the results

I knew I had read something on d-bol bridging. I have been looking for it for a few days and i found it. It is in MuscleMag JUNE 2002 No. 240. The article in summary states a study was done and concluded that a single dose of d-bol in the am does not affect test levels or LH. The study used 100 mg/day which is alot of d-bol. In short you get better results if you divide the dose up during the day. The article suggest 2 ways to appply this.

1. At end of cycle start taking all in the AM to let test and LH to normalize.

2. Use in AM during the off weeks to help avoid losses while having little adverse affects on natural test production.

100mg seems like overkill for the sole purpose of bridging. With that amount you will always have dbol in your system, how are you not going to affect test levels or LH? Can you post the entire article or scan it for us?

Yes i will post it later have to go to work now. I know the 100mg is alot of d-bol. I would cut that back alot maybe to 12.5 or 25 mg ed. I think that would be plenty for a bridge and should not risk interfering with natural test and LH.

primo is another option to bridge with but don't look for alot of growth in size with it.. just quality of hte muscle.. but i still don't like bol that much.. it's one of the olds riods around and most of it is water growth and mental... i personal think that dol has passed it's time... with all the other oral out on the market today.. bol IMHO just isn't worth it anymore...

I don't think that I will ever use it during a regular cycle anymore, but as a low dose and cheap bridge it should serve its purpose. Not really looking for size during the bridging phase just maintenance.

Bump for more input
