Synthol ("Pump n pose"):
Description: Synthol is an intermuscular
fatty acid that bodybuilders are now using to give increased size
in small muscle groups. Gains of 1 inch in muscles like the calves,
biceps, and shoulders are not unheard of. It is actually a synthetic
oil that is injected right in to the muscles you want to enhance
in size. The way that this product works is that it becomes encapsulated
between the fasicles (bundles of muscle fibers). Upon repeated
injections, a huge bolus of the oil accumulates, adding volume
to the injected muscle. About 30% of the amount injected will
be broken down by your enzyme system and is metabolized like a
normal fat because of its unique chemical structure. It will not
be stored as bodyfat but will be burned very fast as fuel. The
remainder of about 70% of the substance will be encapsulated between
your muscle fibers and is broken down very slowly over the course
of 3 to 5 years. Dan Duchaine recently analyzed a sample of Synthol
and found it contained mostly C8 fatty acids, some C10, and about
3% C12 (the C and the number relate to what length the fat is
- short, medium, or long). The mixture also contained 7.5% lidocaine
(a painkiller) and 7.5% benzyl alcohol. There is currently some
debate on whether you can take regular MCT oil as a substitute
for "the real Synthol" which costs between $300-400
per bottle.
Because of the structure of Synthol and the fast encapsulation
your enzyme system, your body has a real hard time spotting the
substance and breaking it down. Supposedly if you use this product
correctly you won't come down with any kind of infection or any
really bad side effects. To get no detrimental effects you have
to be careful about the amounts you inject the first couple of
times you use the stuff, otherwise you could experience an accumulation
of lymphatic fluids in your arms for a couple of days. Working
out while taking Synthol is quite another story. Synthol makes
it real hard at first to train because sometimes after just one
set of any upper body exercise, your guns will feel pumped like
after a hundred sets of any arm exercise. I have not tried this
nor Esiclene, but this product is supposedly more painful than
esiclene with all of the swelling that you will experience from
using this compound. Esiclene was an itallian steroid that was
used a lot in the '80's for causing site swelling in order to
also bring up laggin bodyparts. Supposedly, not too many people
can stand the pain when using Synthol for enlarging the calves,
it's just so nasty. As far as side effects are concerned, that
is still up in the air. The makers of the substance say that there
are really no side effects but injecting any significant amount
of fatty-acid material intramuscularly can be extremely dangerous.
When you jab a syringe into a muscle without any knowledge or
regard to nerve distribution, you may hit a nerve and possibly
cause permanent paralysis of groups of muscle fibers within that
area. And besides the increased possibility of developing abscesses,
there is also the possibility you might inject the fat into a
vein or artery and cause serious tissue damage downstream. If
this stuff is accidentally injected into a vein or artery, it
could be transported into the lungs, possibly causing a "pulmonary
embolism" or perhaps even into the brain, causing a "cardioembolic
stroke." It's also known that injecting fatty acids into
the system can lead to a condition where blood clots can develop,
resulting in coronaries and strokes."
The bottom line is that you need to weigh the risks to benefits
ratio for yourself and decide if it is worth it for you to get
some instant gains. In my opinion, this would be an excellent
precontest drug but for the average bodybuilder that will never
compete it really is not worth the pain or cost to use. I have
not used this compound and probably never will. It is just another
of those things that competitive bodybuilders use to give them
an edge over the competition.
Effective Dose: Start with 1ML, deep into the muscle with a 1/4
inch needle. Be sure to use sterile technique at all times. Continue
at this rate for ten days. Then increase to 2ML a day for ten
days. Now 3ML a day until the muscle gain stops.
Now return to 1ML a day for 30 days. Now 1ML twice a week for
four weeks. Now 1ML once a week for four weeks.
The gains are now said to be permanent but I am a little leery
of this...... Arms will be a good 2 inches up after three weeks
and hold. After a four month break a further gain can be made
by repeating the cycle.
ALWAYS DRAW BACK BEFORE DELIVERY, IF THE SYRINGE FILLS WITH BLOOD
ABORT THE ATTEMPT. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD BE SEVERE. IF IT BLEEDS
AFTER THE INJECTION DO NOT BE ALARMED AS THIS MEANS YOU HAVE PASSED
THROUGH A VEIN, BUT NEVER DELIVER INTO ONE.
From what I have observed, the gain is not permanent but looks
excellent. You have to keep the shots up once a week into each
bodypart to keep the look. Street Price: This product is now available
at Mesomorphosis for $400 per bottle. Mesomorphosis is currently
one of only two select companies authorized by Chris Clark of
Germany to distribute his original Pump'n Pose Posing Oil in the
United States. Don't settle for ripoff copys of this product.
