Trenbolone
Androgen and Anabolic Steroid
Trenbolone is an androgen and anabolic steroid of the nandrolone group which itself was never marketed. Trenbolone ester prodrugs, including trenbolone acetate and trenbolone hexahydrobenzylcarbonate, are or have been marketed for veterinary and clinical use. Trenbolone acetate is used in veterinary medicine in livestock to increase muscle growth and appetite, while trenbolone hexahydrobenzylcarbonate was formerly used clinically in humans but is now no longer marketed. In addition, although it is not approved for clinical or veterinary use, trenbolone enanthate is sometimes sold on the black market under the nickname Trenabol.
If uncertain about personal response to trenbolone, the acetate ester is preferable as it clears the system quickly. It is also very desirable for short cycle use or for the ending weeks of longer cycles because the rapid clearance provides quick transition from having high levels suited for optimal results to low levels allowing recovery.
While trenbolone use is not necessary to achieve excellent results in an anabolic steroid cycle, it can be a remarkable aid towards such results.
Trenbolone acetate is the chemical name of the active ingredient in Finaplix. Finaplix is a registered trademark of Roussel Uclaf Corporation in the United States and/or other countries.

What is Trenbolone Acetate?

How much do you really know about trenbolone acetate?
Let me get you started.
Trenbolone acetate, also known as tren-ace is a very potent anabolic steroid.
How powerful?
Well, you only have to take a look at tren’s profile – both the androgenic and anabolic ratings are listed as 500/500.
What this means is.
Trenbolone acetate is 5 times more powerful than its natural counterpart – testosterone.
There’s more.
Trenbolone acetate is a member of the 19-nor gang of steroids, just like deca durabolin (nandrolone).
Now.
This so called gang get’s the name because the synthetic make up has been modified at the 19th atom.
In short.
It’s been ditched altogether.
One more thing.
It’s also worth noting that this kind of adjustment is not replicated in any other steroid families, which technically makes it exclusive.
The moral of this story is?
It’s partly down to this change in structure that bolsters trenbolone acetate its incredible androgenic power.
“How many types of trenbolone are there?”
Alongside tren-ace, you will find two brothers – enthanate and hexahydrobenylcarbonate.
What’s the difference?
Trenbolone acetate is faster acting and more tolerated in comparison to the other two. Acetate is also the most popular.
What is Trenbolone Acetate Used for?
trenbolone acetate
Tren has two main uses.
First of all, in its “legit” capacity, trenbolone acetate is likely to be found in the cattle sheds of beef herds.
Yes, really.
Farmers use it to get the best gains out of their stock before they are transformed into juicy burgers and t-bones.
Ok, so now let’s talk about the alternative use of trenbolone acetate, after all that’s what we are here for – right?
It attracted the attention of bodybuilding communities back in the 80’s and obviously still remains the case to this very day.
The bottom line
You could say trenbolone acetate is a multipurpose steroid – its use has the potential to cover any goals.
That’s right.
Trenbolone can be used for getting jacked as well as shredded.
Needless to say.
It’s not approved for human use, which means there is very little research on the effects if you choose to go ahead and use it.
However, I did find something interesting.
One study has recognised its potential as a means for combating muscle or bone wasting diseases. As to whether anything will come of it though is anyone’s guess. 1

What are the Benefits of Trenbolone?
trenbolone acetate
The legal trenbolone alternatives mimic these benefits while leaving out the side effects. I’ll show you the best one later down the article.
Trenbolone is a steroid which deserves respect and some previous experience of steroids.
Let’s be honest
Newcomers need not apply.
Now that’s cleared up,
For those wise to the ways, trenbolone does provide some pretty shocking benefits. This boils down to the potent androgenic and anabolic combination, which includes the following:
- Rapid Gains and Preserves Muscle
Here’s a fact for you.
“Protein is the building blocks of muscle”
Now.
Trenbolone acetate is a major player in protein synthesis – the rate which the body builds proteins.
Meaning
It sticks your muscle building abilities into top gear and generates anabolic properties at an immense speed.
To sum it up.
Not only will it boost your muscle gains at a rate of knots, but it will also preserve any gains if you are cutting.
That’s not all.
It also means tren reduces the risk of reaching a state of muscle catabolism during hard workouts.
Last but not least.
It can also cut down post work out recovery times.
- Can help you cut down
Let’s talk weight loss
Tren is up there for either gaining or losing.
However
If I had to put my neck on the line, I would say its benefits for cutting probably take gold.
Why?
If you want to get ripped or shredded you are going to have to reduce your body fat.
Which means?
The textbook approach to dieting – create a calorie deficit.
Now.
We know this creates problems in itself. Weight loss also equals a degree of muscle loss.
The solution?
Trenbolone acetate protects your investments and attempts to keep hold of your gains throughout the cutting phase.
There’s more.
It also ups the body’s fat burning potentials. Trenbolone acetate increases your metabolism mainly because of the way it hooks up to androgen receptors.
The bottom line
You have yourself a good combo for cutting.
- Excels in Endurance
Trenbolone acetate is top of the class for bumping up your red blood cells. Don’t forget these guys are important oxygen carriers in the blood stream.
What I’m trying to say.
When you have you have more O2 circling your body, you can push yourself for that much longer – increasing endurance and stamina to new levels.
- Zero Aromatisation
One of the trenbolone acetate doesn’t turn into estrogen which means water retention shouldn’t be an issue.
What it means for you
Any gains from trenbolone acetate will be lean, solid and dry muscle.
The end result?
Tren will give you a razor sharp ripped physique.
In addition to that
Tren’s ability to “dry” you out is often utilized in other ways. It’s common for tren to be stacked with other roids like dianabol, one notorious for water retention.
Why?
It acts as a counterbalance for the bloating effect.
- Strength Gains
“How much do you bench?”
One of the benefits of trenbolone acetate is that you will notice an incredible increase in power and strength.
Bottom line
You will be punching above your station in no time.
As you can see trenbolone acetate does display some significant benefits, however one thing is clear.
Your actions also play a big part in final results.
Trenbolone Side Effects
To some extent, there is a price in side effects to be paid for this, but not nearly to the extent that many imagine. While a few find trenbolone problematic for reasons of increased aggressive tendency, night sweats, or reduced aerobic performance, most find these side effects slight and easily managed, or non-existent for them personally.
Avoid Trenbolone-Only Cycles
Trenbolone, whether as the acetate (Finaplix, Finajet), enanthate, or cyclohexylmethylcarbonate (Parabolan), should not be used as the sole anabolic in a steroid cycle. Mass gains are greatly limited when this is done. Instead, trenbolone should be stacked with Dianabol, Anadrol, or testosterone as the most common and highly suitable choices.
Trenbolone and Suppressed Estradiol Production
A second reason is that estradiol levels fall too low when trenbolone is used alone. This occurs because natural testosterone production is suppressed when using trenbolone, and this in turn suppresses natural estradiol production. And since trenbolone itself does not aromatize (convert to estrogen), then there is very little substrate available for aromatization, and estrogen production becomes abnormally low. This can cause joint, mood, and libido problems.
Concurrent use of testosterone, Dianabol, or HCG with trenbolone can solve the above estrogen issue. Typically at least 100 mg/week of testosterone will be used for this purpose, or at least 10 or 15 mg/day of Dianabol.
Stacking Trenbolone
Trenbolone exhibits interesting stacking behavior. Combination with either Dianabol or Anadrol gives a very strong synergistic effect. Even if the same total milligram amount of steroid is used per week, results are much better with such a combination than with any of these steroids used alone.
For example, 50 mg/day of trenbolone acetate used with 50 mg/day Dianabol gives much better results in a steroid cycle than either 100 mg/day TA used alone, or that amount of Dianabol used alone. I wouldn’t recommend either of those single-drug usages for a steroid cycle, but the trenbolone/Dianabol stack has produced amazing physique changes in very many instances.
In contrast, trenbolone’s stacking behavior with oxandrolone (Anavar), methenolone (Primobolan), or drostanolone (Masteron) is entirely different. If keeping the same total milligram amounts, these combinations do not outperform trenbolone used alone. So, while it’s acceptable to combine these drugs, the purpose should not be to achieve increased total effect. Such combinations may be useful however to reduce side effects, or to accommodate the materials that are on hand.
Typical Trenbolone Dosages
Trenbolone acetate is usually used at doses of 35-150 mg/day, and more typically 50-100 mg/day. The 35 mg figure generally is appropriate only when having high personal sensitivity to trenbolone-specific side effects. When trenbolone usage is this low and an effective cycle is desired, another injectable anabolic steroid should be added. Masteron is a good choice for this purpose. Another, quite different choice is testosterone.
