Study: bodybuilders grow on 10mg dianabol per day

Way back in 1975, sports scientists at Manchester University in England made a discovery that mainstream science would only come to accept twenty years later. The researchers gave bodybuilders who worked out in fitness centres pills containing the anabolic steroid Dianabol, produced by the CIBA Laboratories. They discovered that these accelerated muscle growth. "Their improvements were significantly greater on methandienone than on placebo", the Brits wrote.

The researchers got thirteen athletes to participate in their experiment, and gave them either a placebo or Dianabol. They had known since 1969 that bodybuilders used steroids and that there was lively clandestine trade in the substances. They also knew that women sometimes took steroids and that stories were doing the rounds of users who took over 300 mg of Dianabol per day. The scientists did their experiment to find out whether steroids really had any effect on athletes.

They gave their test subjects either 10 or 25 mg of Dianabol per day. Some of the athletes started with the steroids and ended with a placebo, and the others did it the other way round. All athletes could tell whether they were using a steroid or the fake. When they were using the blue CIBA pills they felt “prima-donna-ish”, or made, in their own words, “fantastic improvements”. The athletes’ progression is shown below. It is not clear from the article how the researchers measured progress. They did mention though that the group on 10 mg of Dianabol per day made as much progress as the group on the higher dose.

I recall reading a story...in Ironmag years ago, about a guy named Bill March. Bill was an Olympic lifter who had a 390lb standing press. Anyway he used Dbol in the 60's at 5 to 10mgs a day and reported fantastic results.

Results depend a lot on age. The young bodybuilder in his 20's can make good gains on low doses. A bodybuilder in his 40's may need 3 or 4 times the dosage to make the same type of gains. Almost all of the top bodybuilders made the vast majority of their gains while they were in their early 20's. These guys that have been hanging around for a long time don't look any different than they did 10 years ago.
