Description:
Halotestin / Fluoxymesterone is an oral steroid which was introduced on
the market by Upjohn Company in 1957. Fluoxymesterone substance is precursor of methyltestosterone. Through its changes in
the chemical structure, was made much more androgenic than testosterone.
The anabolic component is only slightly pronounced. Based on its characteristics
Halotestin is used mainly when the athlete is more interested in a strength build up rather than in a muscle gain.
Powerlifters and weightlifters who must stay within a certain weight class
often use this drug because they are primarily interested in a strength gain without adding body weight.
In bodybuilding Halotestin is almost exclusively taken during preparation
for a competition. Since its substance is strongly androgenic while at the same time aromatizing very poorly, this substance
helps the athlete obtain an elevated androgen level while keeping the estrogen concentration low. With a low body fat content
Halotestin gives the bodybuilder a distinctive muscle hardness and sharpness. Although the muscle diameter does not increase,
it appears more massive since the muscle density is improved.
The fact that daily dose of up to 20 mg does not cause water and salt retention
makes it even more desirable. During a diet, it helps the athlete get through difficult, intense training while increasing
the aggressiveness of many users. This is another reason why Halotestin (Fluoxymesterone) is so popular among powerlifters,
weightlifters, football players, and, in particular, boxers. The half-life of Fluoxymesterone after oral administration is
approximately 9.2 hours.
Fluoxymesterone is the chemical name of active ingredient in Halotestin. Halotestin
is a registered trademark of Pharmacia & Upjohn Company in the United States and/or other countries.
