In the 1990s, the steroid of choice was Sustanon(Sustanon 250)... it was a household name to bodybuilders. In short, Sustanon is a blend of four testosterones in one. Some of the esters are fast acting, while others slow acting. Orginally, Organon, who manufactures Sustanon, claimed it was ideal in Hormone Replacement Therapy because it only needed to be injected once a month.
As the late 90s came, Sustanon started to lose popularity. Why? Mainly for three reasons.One, the price. With the introduction to underground steroid labs, pharmaceutical Sustanon became a luxury, and was only sought after by old school steroid users who didn't believe in underground labs, and users who didn't care about price; only wanted high quality, guaranteed pharmaceutical steroids. The same can still be said today.Two, less frequent injections were not ideal. Even though Organon suggested taking Sustanon once a month, the more ideal usage was a Sustanon cycle consisting of weekly injections. However, further inspecting the testosterone esters, especially the fast acting esters propionate and phenylpropioinate, the proper injection procedure would be injections, every other day. Often, steroid users looks to have the least amount of injections, and injections every other day has made some look at other alternatives.Three, in the end testosterone is testosterone. It was originally believed that a blend of these testosterone esters would yield bigger gains, then that of a single ester, such as, enanthate or cypionate. Add in the cost of the single esters, compared to the brand name Sustanon, and steroid users were making other choices.Even with the advancements made over the last couple decades, beginners and even advanced users still seek out a Sustanon cycle. Stories of the 'gains' from Sustanon have been passed down over the years, making it a legend in the steroid black market.As with the Winstrol cycle, recommended Sustanon dosages have crept up over the last ten years. Originally, it was suggested to take 250mgs per week of Sustanon. Users would report 15-25lbs of weight gain over a short 8 week period. But this was not enough, and as mentioned in the Winstorl cycle, people always believe 'more is better', and now the most common beginner dose is 500mgs per week.Injecting Sustanon every other day is the ideal method, but it creates a problem. Sustanon, 95% of the time will come in 250mg dosages. If a user takes 250mgs of Sustanon every second day, that's 875mgs of testosterone a week, which is a high dosage for beginners and intermediate steroid users. A half dosage(usually 1/2 CC or ml), would come out to 437.5mgs per week, and is much safer for beginners.Even with weekly injections, users were reporting 15-25lbs of weight gain, so even if not injected daily, or every other day, great gains can still be made.Here are two examples with frequent and weekly injections. The second example we used 375mgs per week, which is usually 1.5mls of Sustanon. Not quite the old recommended dosage years ago, and not quite the new standard, but works out to be a good beginner cycle.

Not only the most popular Sustanon cycle, but one of the most popular cycle all time, is the Sustanon mass stack. It's a mass building cycle aimed towards intermediate users, but some first time users have also jumped right into it. The three steroids used are Sustanon, Deca Durabolin(Nandrolone decanoate), and Dianabol(Methandrostenolone). The addition of Dianabol gives the individual immediate results, putting on several pounds in the first week alone, however, it is mostly water weight.

As with most steroids, there are chances of side effects. Possible side effects include acne, gynecomastia, testicular shrinkage, and more. It is suggested to have a product like Nolvadex(Tamoxifen citrate) on hand, in case estrogen becomes an issue and gynecomastia develops. The lower the dosage, the individual greatly decreases the chance of any side effects.
