Trenbolone Results (With Before and After Pictures)

Trenbolone is an injectable anabolic steroid commonly nicknamed the Monster Steroid in bodybuilding circles. This is in reference to its incredibly powerful nature, producing exceptional results (and equally harsh side effects).

Trenbolone’s lipolytic (fat-burning) and anabolic (muscle-building) properties make it a potent bulking or cutting steroid.

Trenbolone excels in simultaneous muscle gain and fat loss due to its versatility. Other anabolic steroids may be able to match trenbolone’s anabolic nature or fat-burning attributes alone, but not simultaneously.

Thus, trenbolone is considered the best steroid for transforming a user’s physique as quickly as possible.

However, due to trenbolone’s high toxicity, intermediate and experienced steroid users typically cycle this steroid instead of beginners.

Thus, overly dramatic trenbolone before and after pictures are uncommon, as most of a steroid user’s results occur in the first few cycles (typically on testosterone or milder compounds such as Anavar).

Therefore, there is little potential for significant gains in muscle hypertrophy and/or strength by the time a user’s body is ready for trenbolone. Despite this, we have still seen trenbolone take a first-time user’s physique to the next level, with greater muscle mass and reduced subcutaneous body fat.

Trenbolone Before and After Pictures

The above transformation is typical of the level of change we observe in bodybuilders after taking trenbolone for the first time. They experience enhanced fat loss, increased muscle mass, more prominent vascularity, and greater muscle definition.

Observe how the deltoids and trapezius muscles are more prominent in the after picture, a characteristic of trenbolone’s high androgenicity. These two muscle groups have a high number of androgen receptors, thus making them more susceptible to growth.

Trenbolone also gives the muscles a dry appearance due to its lack of aromatization, which produces a diuretic effect. The minimal amounts of extracellular fluid surrounding the muscles give the body a photoshopped-like appearance, increasing the likelihood of prominent vascularity and muscle striations.

Experienced steroid users who have taken several cycles before and then choose to use trenbolone can expect to gain another 10 to 15 pounds of muscle. Users can also typically lose 5 to 7 pounds of fat on trenbolone (almost irrespective of calorie intake).

How to Maximize Results on Trenbolone

Genetics, diet, lifestyle, workouts, and cycle protocol will all influence a person’s trenbolone results.

Bodybuilders at our clinic who hyper-respond to trenbolone typically gain more muscle and burn more fat than those who are hypo-responders.

Equally, a person’s diet can maximize results from a cycle. For example, we commonly see that someone who takes trenbolone to bulk up and combines this with a calorie surplus diet will gain more muscle than someone eating fewer calories (with all other factors being equal).

Furthermore, a small calorie deficit will maximize fat burning when cutting on trenbolone.

Getting enough sleep, minimizing stress, and generally living a healthy lifestyle will also aid a user’s results on trenbolone.

A user’s dosage and cycle duration will also determine the results. We have found that there is a cut-off point in terms of dosage and cycle length; if you go beyond this point, it is futile (yielding diminishing returns).

Therefore, a higher dosage doesn’t necessarily produce better results on trenbolone, and thus a moderate dose is optimal, especially for controlling side effects and making long-term gains.

We have seen trenbolone stacked with virtually any anabolic steroid with excellent success due to its versatility in regard to bulking or cutting.

Therefore, a user taking trenbolone primarily for muscle gain could combine it with testosterone or Anadrol for increased muscle hypertrophy and strength. In such a scenario, where a user wants to add mass, testosterone would be a mild stacking option, with Anadrol having a notably increased toxicity.

Testosterone complements trenbolone well, being another injectable compound and thus not posing any additional risk to hepatic health. Furthermore, based on our lab results, testosterone only has subtle effects on cholesterol values, and thus it is perhaps the least dangerous anabolic steroid to combine with trenbolone.

Although a trenbolone and Anadrol stack could be considered the most potent duo for promoting muscle mass, it should also be considered the most toxic, particularly to the heart and liver. Thus, such a stack would be considered unsuitable and unnecessary for health-conscious bodybuilders.

If a person wanted to prioritize fat loss and muscle retention when cutting, trenbolone could be combined with Anavar, Winstrol, or Clenbuterol.

Anavar and Winstrol will increase anabolism, thus preserving or building additional lean muscle tissue while enhancing fat burning.

Anavar should be considered the preferable compound due to its mild nature vs. Winstrol. Our patients commonly experience less fluctuation in terms of cholesterol and liver values with Anavar.

However, one could argue that Winstrol, despite its cost, will yield slightly better results.

Strength Gains on Trenbolone

Our doctors have treated various competitive strongmen, and thus we can attest to trenbolone being one of the most potent steroids for strength (1), despite it not causing large amounts of weight gain due to a lack of aromatization.

Non-drug-tested powerlifters will almost certainly cycle trenbolone prior to a competition.

Bodybuilders at our clinic (taking trenbolone for the first time) typically report over 20-pound increases on main compound lifts.

These are dramatic results, considering most intermediate steroid users will almost certainly have used several potent bulking steroids before taking trenbolone, such as testosterone (2) or Dianabol (3).

Summary

The effects of trenbolone are exceptional, especially since its lipolytic and anabolic effects work together to make it a powerful compound for both bulking up and cutting down. In our experience, its ability to transform a user’s physique is largely unmatched by its anabolic steroid counterparts.

However, trenbolone is not recommended for beginners due to its detrimental effects on the HPTA (hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular axis) and its increased risk of arteriosclerosis (4).
