Pharmaceutical Name: Boldenone (as undecylenate)
Chemical structure: 1,4-androstadiene-3-one,17b-ol
Effective dose: 300-600 mg/week




For something that is generally injected into cows, horses and dogs boldenone is quite a popular and well-liked drug by most bodybuilders because of its unique make-up. It possesses several characteristics that aren't found in any other substance and its use is so varied its much desired year-round. Boldenone is a decent anabolic coupled with both a mild androgenic and a mild estrogenic effect. Sort of like a weak testosterone. In structure it doesn't differ all that much from testosterone, the main anomaly being a double bond in the one position as well as the 4 position. Its nonetheless quite good at promoting gains, but mostly through a combination of androgenic potential and other media than the androgen and estrogen receptors.

The strange thing about its androgenic component is that it is mostly not mediated by a 5-alpha-reduced form, as is the case for most steroids. While it does indeed form a very potent 5AR form (dihydroboldenone, roughly 7 times as anabolic as testosterone1) its shows a very low affinity for the 5-alpha-reducatase enzyme2. This leads to the conclusion that a large part of the anabolic effect boldenone exerts is formed by the hormone itself binding to the androgen receptor. This could also be the reason its had such a successful run as a veterinary drug, because despite differences in the metabolism of species it has always produced extraordinary results.

Like most anabolic steroids it increases muscle mass over time by increasing nitrogen retention and positively influencing protein synthesis or re-synthesis. An action that is not necessarily supported by an androgenic mediator as was shown with nandrolone. What boldenone has that other steroids don't is that it indirectly supplies the necessary means for that protein synthesis because it drastically increases the appetite. Thereby facilitating the high nutritional intake (especially protein wise) needed to book the best results when using anabolic androgenic steroids. Its more of a benefit than you think as a lot of people have theorized that it is this increase that is responsible for the great results booked when using boldenone. This theory may hold its own as there is indeed not much proof of the kind of anabolic activity with boldenone that would be responsible for the elicited effect.

Its estrogenic activities are slight, but present. This has more of a positive than negative influence. The aromatisation of boldenone is too small to cause real problems and in normal doses (300-400 mg/week) problems such as gynocomastia and too much fat retention are unheard of. However small aromatisation is desirable as estrogen too mediates anabolic activity. It can be responsible for better glucose utilization3,4 (repleting lost glycogen stores after exercise) and stimulating increased growth hormone release5. But most notably estrogen is responsible for an upgrading of the androgen receptor6 allowing hormones that act on the androgen receptor to exert a larger anabolic effect. This is why hormones that are strong androgens but also aromatize heavily, like anadrol and testosterone, can put the most mass on your frame. In that aspect boldenone is perhaps the most suitable steroid because of its moderate estrogen levels that allow for the benefits, but not the side-effects of aromatization. And no doubt the perfect balance is partially responsible for stimulation of the appetite.

For athletes of sports other than strength sports or bodybuilding will also note that boldenone is quite likely the most favorable steroid for them to use as it also stimulates the release of erythropoeitin in the kidneys. Erythropoeitin is a hormone known as EPO and heavily abused among endurance athletes because it signals the body to increase the production of red blood cells (erythrocytes). Red blood cells are the carrier of oxygen in the body, meaning that a higher maximal oxygen capacity can be obtained and better performance can be achieved over longer amounts of time before lactic acid is built up, which would in turn result in cramps and a cessation of the activity at that level. In short it improves your stamina. For bodybuilders this characteristic may be useful in promoting increased vascularity.

In that aspect boldenone combined with a non-aromatizing steroid like Winstrol or Primobolan may be perfect to help you get cut and ripped while improving vascularity. The downside to that is that you really need to try hard to suppress the increased appetite. Which is why its probably a better idea to stack a somewhat larger dose of boldenone with a mass building drug like testosterone or anadrol to elicit major gains.

The negative effects of boldenone are quite limited. In the normal doses of 300-400 mg a week estrogenic side-effects are almost never noted except in those who are very succeptible to estrogen. In terms of androgenic side-effects long-term use or very intense use of boldenone can cause slight virilizing effects such as acne and increased body-hair growth. Never really a problem for men, but women considering its use on account of its moderate androgenic qualities should be aware of this.

As an undecylenate ester, boldenone needs only be injected every week (staying active well over 4 weeks), but because the preparations come in 25 mg/ml, users most often opt for 25-50 mg every day to every other day. A use of 300-400 mg per week seems to be the normal recommendation. Its not hepatoxic to any serious degree and can therefore be used for longer cycles. The appearance of underground forms of boldenone in higher concentrations (200 mg/ml) has made it easier to inject only once a week, which is to be preffered over the multiple dosings because it has a more even release and the cumulative effect shows much sooner. Speaking of cumulative effect, the best results with boldenone are seen when a user front-loads. Usually that means he will use a high doses of 600-800 mg/week for 2 weeks and then lower that dose to the normal 300-400 mg/week for the remaining 8-10 weeks.

Boldenone is most often used for cutting. Its stacking partners for this purpose in particular are trenbolone, stanazolol and testosterone propionate. I'm no big fan of testosterone for cutting, although propionate is commonly used with great success by many users. Nonetheless I don't recommend test for cutting for beginners. Stanazolol is particularly useful in improving muscle hardness and strength while boldenone offers increased vascularity without overly aromatizing. The use of 50 mg of stanazolol every day, stacked with 300-400 mg per week of boldenone should serve the purpose of retaining gains and gaining increased definition and vascularity while shedding fat very well. Trenbolone would be a better match for those looking for moderate but very lean gains. Parabolan at 76 mg every other day for example will provide a decent increase in lean mass in combination with boldenone, without having to sacrifice shape or definition. Of course any combination of the above is an option as well. For example 300 mg of equipoise per week stacked with 76 mg of parabolan every other day and 50 mg of Winstrol every day, possibly with some test propionate at 50 mg a day.

But though rarely mentioned, I personally find boldenone the better choice for bulking. Due to its effect on vascularity it is mostly used for cutting, but if you had a drug that increased your appetite like boldenone does, would you really use it to lose weight? It makes more sense to use it in a stack with a testosterone ester like enanthate or cypionate for good gains, instead of nandrolone. Sort of as a base. It aromatizes less than nandrolone and doesn't have that pesky progestagenic effect either, and because it increases appetite it would provide you with the means to an end in terms of gaining weight. 300-400 mg a week of boldenone with 500 mg of sustanon or 500 mg of testosterone enanthate would form an incredible stack. Even for those who prefer deca, adding a small amount of boldenone will go a long way in improving appetite. But boldenone is stronger than Deca, mg for mg, as well as safer and less suppressive.

Boldenone makes a very poor match for nandrolone and methenolone though, since its very similar in action. The beauty of boldenone is that it can be an alternative for nandrolone when bulking due to its leaner results and more potent anabolic action, as well as an alternative for methenolone because while barely aromatizing its stronger than methenolone (Primobolan), gram for gram. The use of secondary drugs is rarely required. It doesn't aromatize at a great rate so the use of anti-aromatases is rarely implemented and the use of Nolva and clomid, during a cycle, is only necessary when stacked with aromatizing steroids like testosterone. Nolvadex or Clomid may have some use in restoring natural test post-cycle, because of the long-acting ester (11 carbons) and the mild estrogenic component. Normally 4 weeks of treatment is required, starting 1.5 to 2 weeks after the last shot.

Got some 200mg/ml eq for my next cycle. 600mg sounds like alot to me. I was going to run it 1cc every four days. Along with 250mg of cyp every four days as well. Would that be an effective dose or should I bump it up?

600 is where it goes to work, its very very mild. Increase in RBC and an insatiable appetite are the sides. You will feel like you can run forever and ever and then what to eat everything you see.> Great drug.

I have noticed a big variation on dosages. Most if not all of the vets say run it at 600mgs to 1000mgs. I got it at 800mgs now just wonder if I could lower it to 600mgs and get the same results.

No I never had anxiety I don't suffer from it. But equipoise gave me crazy anxiety and panic attacks. I would be applying for jobs and would have to sit down before calling the place to see if they received my resume because I couldn't catch my breath lol. It's just intense fear I got from it and crazy tunnel vision from the adrenaline. I only ran it for 3 weeks and it took a while to leave the system. Funny because I ran equipoise two years ago and it didn't affect me like my last run.

What was your dose? I've heard that the anxiety could be due to the raised hematocrit level, but not sure. I'm assuming anxiety could be avoided with lower doses,but longer cycles?

Another theory is how ugl eq supposedly has tons of impurities now... Not sure, but some say they didn't experience the sides with vet grade eq.

I was running it at 500mg, crazy because I ran it before at 600mg but didn't get all the crazy side effects. You say impurities, you mean like dirty gear = increased side effects? I want to run it again but maybe try another lab. Probably 300-450mg this time.

The actual powder over the years has chemically changed and is less like eq than it was

If I run it, it will be at 300mg a week and just train hard, eat correctly to make gains. I definitely think you should try it lower with a good lab

Yea I think I'm gonna go for that. It's nice to have a little mild anabolic added. A bottle will last me 9-10 weeks already.

I don't think anyone's going to be able to nail this down for you. Everyone seems to react differently to EQ. Personally, I have never thought it was that bad. I could definitely tell a difference, but not to the point that it I couldn't work around it. Of course that being said, most of my experience with it was back in the day and I actually found it to be of benefit when I was bulking and even cutting. Back then, when i would cut, i'd follow Bodyopus and by around the 3rd or 4th week in I would really struggle with trying to get enough fat and protein down to hit my daily numbers. So in that instance a small spike in hunger really helped out. Hope this helps bro.

Hey, i'm curious to know how many of you run your EQ by itself? I know Bro-science these days frowns upon ever running a cycle without test, but I and a number of guys used to run it solo years ago and never seemed to have any issues. I always loved the clean, permanent gains I would get from EQ by itself and didn't have to run as many ancillaries with my cycle. I also seemed to feel really good on cycle and the increased stamina was huge during cutting. I'd be interested to hear if anyone is still doing this.

15%BF. TRT for 1yr....@160mg Test-C weekly and .5 Adex every 3days.

Just finished a 10 week blast and back down to my TRT dose now.
Wasn't too happy with my blast results. Need suggestions.

Ran EQ at 600mg a week for 10-weeks. Also ran test at 300mg a week along side the EQ.
Ate clean, trained like an animal.
Wasn't very impressed with EQ.
Didn't do much for me. Couldn't really feel any difference. I lost BF from my diet and training. Just expected alot more. Trained like I was going for the gold medal. Can't say it was my training. Ate 2200 cal a day. 200g of protein or more per day. 40min of fasted cardio in the am with 1hr of heavy lift in at night.
5-days a week.

Never really a problem for men, but women considering its use on account of its moderate androgenic qualities should be aware of this.

As an undecylenate ester, boldenone needs only be injected every week (staying active well over 4 weeks), but because the preparations come in 25 mg/ml, users most often opt for 25-50 mg every day to every other day. A use of 300-400 mg per week seems to be the normal recommendation. Its not hepatoxic to any serious degree and can therefore be used for longer cycles. The appearance of underground forms of boldenone in higher concentrations (200 mg/ml) has made it easier to inject only once a week, which is to be preffered over the multiple dosings because it has a more even release and the cumulative effect shows much sooner. Speaking of cumulative effect, the best results with boldenone are seen when a user front-loads. Usually that means he will use a high doses of 600-800 mg/week for 2 weeks and then lower that dose to the normal 300-400 mg/week for the remaining 8-10 weeks.

Boldenone is most often used for cutting. Its stacking partners for this purpose in particular are trenbolone, stanazolol and testosterone propionate. I'm no big fan of testosterone for cutting, although propionate is commonly used with great success by many users. Nonetheless I don't recommend test for cutting for beginners. Stanazolol is particularly useful in improving muscle hardness and strength while boldenone offers increased vascularity without overly aromatizing. The use of 50 mg of stanazolol every day, stacked with 300-400 mg per week of boldenone should serve the purpose of retaining gains and gaining increased definition and vascularity while shedding fat very well. Trenbolone would be a better match for those looking for moderate but very lean gains. Parabolan at 76 mg every other day for example will provide a decent increase in lean mass in combination with boldenone, without having to sacrifice shape or definition. Of course any combination of the above is an option as well. For example 300 mg of equipoise per week stacked with 76 mg of parabolan every other day and 50 mg of Winstrol every day, possibly with some test propionate at 50 mg a day.

But though rarely mentioned, I personally find boldenone the better choice for bulking. Due to its effect on vascularity it is mostly used for cutting, but if you had a drug that increased your appetite like boldenone does, would you really use it to lose weight? It makes more sense to use it in a stack with a testosterone ester like enanthate or cypionate for good gains, instead of nandrolone. Sort of as a base. It aromatizes less than nandrolone and doesn't have that pesky progestagenic effect either, and because it increases appetite it would provide you with the means to an end in terms of gaining weight. 300-400 mg a week of boldenone with 500 mg of sustanon or 500 mg of testosterone enanthate would form an incredible stack. Even for those who prefer deca, adding a small amount of boldenone will go a long way in improving appetite. But boldenone is stronger than Deca, mg for mg, as well as safer and less suppressive.

Boldenone makes a very poor match for nandrolone and methenolone though, since its very similar in action. The beauty of boldenone is that it can be an alternative for nandrolone when bulking due to its leaner results and more potent anabolic action, as well as an alternative for methenolone because while barely aromatizing its stronger than methenolone (Primobolan), gram for gram. The use of secondary drugs is rarely required. It doesn't aromatize at a great rate so the use of anti-aromatases is rarely implemented and the use of Nolva and clomid, during a cycle, is only necessary when stacked with aromatizing steroids like testosterone. Nolvadex or Clomid may have some use in restoring natural test post-cycle, because of the long-acting ester (11 carbons) and the mild estrogenic component. Normally 4 weeks of treatment is required, starting 1.5 to 2 weeks after the last shot.

Wow that was a powerful post you really blew my mind I really need to learn about EQ and you literally give me all the answers thank you so much

Back in the day mid to late 90's would get EQ in 10ml vials @ 50mg/ml in vet form and would run it from as little as 6 weeks to 12 weeks doing 3ml shot 2xwk or 2ml eod what a pain in the butt if you know what I mean. Always got good results on a dose of 300/400mg per week. Made you really full. Sometimes would just run it by itself but if wanting more mass and body weight gain from the cycle would add test to the mix 200/300mg wk.

Moving into the 2000's along comes EQ @ 200mg/ml and this is when I really got the most out of EQ. Now you could run a good dose without as much volume of oil. But here is the secret no one really talks about. You here guys saying you must run EQ at least 16 weeks to see results due to the long ester. This is not true.

What we all did was what ever amount of EQ we used for the cycle we would all double the dose for the first two weeks and this enabled you to hit peak results after 8-12 weeks.

The first time I did it this way worked like a treat and from that day on this is who I have always cycled EQ.

I choose to do 400mg/wk so for the first 2 weeks I took 800mg and then the remaining 8 weeks of the 10 week cycle took 400mg/wk

here is a picture of one of those 10ml vet vials I use to use back in the day

I use it for lean gains, I need cardio, hiit training and speed....I have had no Ill side effects as far as blown out cardio....all remains solid...

Eq is arguably the best steroid out there next to test. The best cycle was my first - 250 test per week 1-10 and 400 eq 1-12, with winny 50 ed 6-12. 6% bf, benching 315 at 165.

I have done EQ several times a 500 & 600mg/week with no noticeable appetite increase.

I've always struggled with not having a big enough appetite to put down as much calories as id like but I recently gave ghrp-6 a try and it works wonders for appetite! I can eat as much as I want and I'm still always able to eat when taking it. I hear mk-677 is great for increasing appetite as well, I'd give one of those a try if your looking for a bigger appetite.

What's your ghrp-6 protocol?I started at 100mcgs twice a day but have bumped it up to 300mcgs in the morning and 200mcgs post workout. They say your body can desensitize to it quick but I've been using it for 3 weeks and still works great for me. Its pretty cheap too so definitely worth it imo.

I knew I could count on finding some good info on use of EQ. The increased in red blood cells for O2 transport make taking this on a cut cycle that much more intriguing to me. Also, the bulk cycle sounds simple enough. I have read that extending the cycle over 14wk is a good length and at a minimum of 12wks. That’s important because of the slow release from the undecylenate ester (14 Day Half-Life). Also, delay the PCT for 2 wks.

Did you ever run this an dog so, how’s it go? How log did you run the eq? Did you run the anavar 4 weeks as you mentioned? Just started eq a few days ago.


keen on starting The EQ and Test E stack in about a months time, was gonna add some Var in the last 4 weeks to see how it all went

Was planing on running:
EQ 400/wk
Test E 300/week
Test prop 200/week with Arimadex (TRT)

Thinking ill run above 12-16 weeks.

Anyone have insight about running EQ at higher diesel than test…for example say a 2:1 ratio…400 EQ with 200 test? Or does it need to be more 1:1.

I believe EQ can do weird things to E2 and therefore might need more teat to avoid crashing e2?

Well, I've found EQ varies greatly person to person in dose required and side effects. 200mg/wk of test isn't much to run, so EQ may throw off your estro. That being said, I personally haven't got results from EQ under 600mg/wk and that's with a front load, so I may not be a good responder to EQ. I feel Deca/NPP is a much better bang for my buck.

Heck no, I ran it until the end. Never again though.
It was suppose to offset tren and it made the acetate that much more difficult to function with.
I like to think I am mentally tough enough, but it ruined the cycle. The sleep, the mentality, eating, and everything around the cycle was displaced as I tried to convince myself I could make it.
There were other issues too. I crashed my estrogen. Went hypoglycemic because of low carbs with tren. One for the record books.

Stopped using adex after that cycle.
Started doing regular blood testing also.
Really started researching chemicals before they go together.
I wouldn’t run tren and EQ together now because I think it would be risky for the blood cell count.
Took a few months to be normal and not worried.
