Testosterone cypionate is a synthetic derivative of testosterone in the form of an oil-soluble 17 (beta)-cyclopentylpropionate ester. Its benefit compared to other testosterone derivatives is the slow rate of release after injection and longer half-life. The characteristics of testosterone cypionate and testosterone enanthate are very similar, therefore both of them tend to be interchangeable. It was developed by the company Pharmacia and Upjohn and FDA approved on July 25, 1979.
This hormone is responsible for numerous physical and psychological characteristics in males. It promotes libido, fat loss, helps you acquire and maintain lean muscle mass, increases bone density and can even protect against heart disease. These characteristics will be the same whether you naturally produce testosterone or use Testosterone Cypionate. All other steroids are in fact testosterone molecules that have been modified to change the hormone’s properties. Testosterone Cypionate has an anabolic/androgenic ratio of 100 and this rating system is used to measure all other steroids.
This makes testosterone the “father” of all anabolic steroids used by athletes today. Note that all testosterone compounds, including Testosterone Cypionate, have anabolic/androgenic ratios of 100 because they are simply testosterone.
Testosterone Cypionate is a strongly anabolic and androgenic steroid that makes a powerful steroid for gaining muscle volume and strength.
Cypionate encourages nitrogen retention in muscle, and the more nitrogen that muscles have, the more protein they can store. Cypionate can also increase the levels of another anabolic hormone, IGF-1, in muscle tissue to provide even more anabolic activity.
Cypionate also has an incredible capacity to increase the activity of satellite cells. These cells play an active role in repairing damaged muscles, and it’s this repair that increases muscle volume after weight training.
Testosterone also binds to androgenic receptors to facilitate specific mechanisms for muscle gains and fat loss.
Testosterone Cypionate changes the shape, size, appearance and number of muscle fibers in your body. Androgens like testosterone can protect your hard-earned muscles from natural catabolism, or muscular atrophy caused by glucocorticoid hormones, and inhibited the related undesirable side effects.
In addition, Testosterone Cypionate can increase red blood cell production, which improves endurance and blood oxygenation. More red blood cells can also improve recovery after intense physical activity. Even if the anabolic/androgenic effects depend on the dose of testosterone, the higher the injected dose, the more substantial the strength and mass gains. Many athletes display massive strength gains while using Testosterone Cypionate because this hormone improves muscle contraction by increasing the number of motor neurons in the muscle and boosts neuromuscular transmission.
It also promotes glycogen synthesis, supplying more fuel for intense workouts and thus increasing an athlete’s strength and endurance. Testosterone Cypionate can also encourage loss of body fat by improving metabolic activity. Testosterone binds relatively well with androgenic receptors, which reduces fat and prevents the formation of new fat cells.
Testosterone Cypionate-based cycles*
Testosterone Cypionate is often used in place of testosterone enanthate and is used primarly in North America, where in Europe Testosterone Enanthate is the preferred type. There is also 1 day difference between both esters, where Test-E is around 10,5 days and Test-C around 12 days.
Testosterone Cypionate: 250mg up to 1000 milligrams per week. While it might be tempting to increase the dosage to above 1000mg to increase gains, doing so also brings about heightened estrogen and androgenic side effects that are not worth the trade-off for the extra gains and dosing this high is not recommended. Side effects like acne or gynecomastia and offcourse water retention.
It’s perfect for beginners and advanced anabolic users alike.
