Clenbuterol:
Clenbuterol, medically used throughout
many parts of the world as a broncodilator for the treatment of
asthma, is a recent and popular addition to the realm of athletics.
Clenbuterol is a beta-2 agonist, with properties somewhat similar
to adrenaline. It acts as a CNS stimulant and users quite commonly
report side effects such as shaky hands, insomnia, sweating, increased
blood pressure and nausea. These side effects generally subside
quickly once the user becomes accustomed to the drug. Athletes
find clenbuterol attractive for it's pronounced thermogenic effects
as well as mild anabolic properties. Dosage regimes will vary
depending on the desired effect. Clenbuterol generally come is
20mcg tablets, although it is also available in syrup and injectable
form. Users will usually tailor there dosage individually, depending
on results and side effects, but somewhere in the range of 2-8
tablets per day is most common. For fat loss, clenbuterol seems
to stay effective for 3-6 weeks, then it's thermogenic properties
seem to subside. This is noticed when the body temperature drops
back to normal. It's anabolic properties subside much quicker,
somewhere around 18 days. Currently, counterfeits of clenbuterol
do exist, but they are scarce and most are bottles with loose
tablets. Clenbuterol should only be trusted when purchased in
foil and plastic strips, preferably with accompanying box and
paperwork. |
