Anadrol (Oxymetholone): A Comprehensive Overview

Anadrol (Oxymetholone): A Comprehensive Overview

Introduction

Anadrol, scientifically known as Oxymetholone, is one of the most potent oral anabolic steroids available today. Originally developed in the 1960s by Syntex Pharmaceuticals, it was initially used to treat medical conditions such as anemia and muscle wasting diseases. Over the years, its powerful anabolic effects have made it a popular choice among athletes and bodybuilders aiming to enhance muscle mass and strength.

Uses of Anadrol

Medical Uses:

Anemia Treatment: Anadrol stimulates erythropoiesis, the production of red blood cells, making it effective in treating anemia.

Muscle Wasting Diseases: It is used to combat muscle wasting in patients suffering from severe illnesses like HIV/AIDS.

Bone Marrow Disorders: Anadrol has shown effectiveness in treating various bone marrow disorders.

Performance Enhancement:

Bodybuilding: Anadrol is favored for its ability to promote rapid gains in muscle mass and strength, making it a staple in bulking cycles.

Athletics: Some athletes use Anadrol to enhance performance due to its significant strength-boosting properties.

Benefits of Anadrol

Rapid Muscle Gains: Anadrol is known for producing substantial increases in muscle mass within a short period, often yielding noticeable results within the first few weeks of use.

Increased Strength: Users experience significant strength gains, allowing for improved performance in both athletic and bodybuilding contexts.

Enhanced Protein Synthesis: Anadrol enhances the body's ability to synthesize protein, which is crucial for muscle growth and recovery.

Boosted Red Blood Cell Production: This leads to improved oxygen delivery to muscles, enhancing endurance and reducing fatigue during intense workouts.

Dosage and Cycle Use

Dosage:

The typical dosage of Anadrol for performance enhancement ranges from 25 mg to 100 mg per day. However, most users find that 50 mg per day strikes an effective balance between benefits and side effects.

For medical purposes, dosages may vary based on the condition being treated and the patient's response to the medication.

Cycle Use:

Bulking Cycles: Anadrol is commonly used at the start of a bulking cycle for its ability to rapidly increase muscle mass. A typical cycle lasts 4-6 weeks, as prolonged use can lead to significant side effects.

Stacking: Many users stack Anadrol with other anabolic steroids such as Testosterone or Deca-Durabolin to maximize muscle gains. However, this should be done cautiously due to the increased risk of adverse effects.

Forms of Anadrol

Anadrol is primarily available in oral tablet form, commonly in 50 mg dosages. It is also available in lower dosages, but the 50 mg tablet is the most prevalent and widely used in both medical and bodybuilding communities.

Side Effects and Considerations

While Anadrol offers numerous benefits, it is associated with a range of potential side effects, particularly when used in high doses or for extended periods. These include:

Liver Toxicity: Anadrol is hepatotoxic, meaning it can cause liver damage. Users are advised to limit cycle lengths and avoid alcohol and other hepatotoxic substances.

Hormonal Imbalances: It can cause significant hormonal changes, leading to side effects such as gynecomastia (enlarged breast tissue in men) and water retention.

Cardiovascular Issues: Anadrol can negatively impact cholesterol levels, increasing the risk of cardiovascular problems.

Androgenic Effects: These include acne, hair loss, and increased body hair growth, particularly in individuals predisposed to these conditions.

Conclusion

Anadrol (Oxymetholone) is a powerful anabolic steroid with significant benefits for muscle growth and strength enhancement. Its medical applications highlight its effectiveness in treating serious health conditions, while its popularity in the bodybuilding community underscores its potency. However, potential users must approach Anadrol with caution, respecting recommended dosages and cycle lengths to mitigate its substantial side effects. As with any steroid use, it is essential to consult with a healthcare professional to ensure safe and effective use.

The Triumph of the Dream Achiever

Robin, a young and talented basketball player, has dreamed of becoming a successful professional athlete since his childhood. When he first watches the Braunschweig Basketball Lions play as a little boy, he is fascinated by their game and decides that one day he will join them.

Years later, during his youth, Robin trains hard and evolves into an outstanding player. His speed, his knack for the ball, and his relentless dedication catch the attention of the Lions' talent scouts. Eventually, he receives the long-awaited invitation for a tryout.

Robin is excited and nervous as he puts on the Lions' jersey and steps onto the court. Surrounded by talented players, he must prove himself to secure a spot on the team. However, he is not daunted by the pressure and showcases his full potential during drills and in the game.

Trainer: "Show us what you've got, Robin. Give it your all!"

The coaches and officials are impressed by Robin's performance and deliver the relieving news that he is now a part of the Lions family. The joy and pride for the young player are indescribable.

Coach: "Hey Robin, congratulations! You're now part of the Lions family!"

Robin: "This is a dream come true. Thank you, Coach!"

Robin trains diligently to establish himself within the team. He works on his weaknesses and bolsters his strengths. He increasingly earns playing time during matches and demonstrates his skills. With his spectacular dunks, precise passes, and aggressive defense, he contributes to the Lions' growing success.

In the crucial season where the Lions vie for promotion to the highest basketball league, a pivotal game against the Veolia Towers Hamburg arises. The team is under pressure, as promotion is within close reach. However, the Towers do not give in easily and field a strong team.

Robin, now an essential player in the team, feels the weight of responsibility on his shoulders. He knows he can be the key to victory.

Teammate: "Focus, Robin! We need you now more than ever!"

Robin: "I'm here, let's bring this home!"

The game is fiercely contested, but Robin and the Lions maintain control. Thanks to his robust defensive work and precise shots, the team edges closer to promotion. As the final buzzer sounds and the Lions leave the court as victors, jubilation and euphoria erupt. They have succeeded - promotion to the highest league of German basketball!

The story concludes with Robin being celebrated by his teammates and coaches. With shining eyes, he gazes at the promotion trophy and can scarcely believe that his dream has come true. This story illustrates that hard work, passion, and unwavering self-belief can lead to great successes. Robin has proven himself a true champion - the rise of the Lion is also his triumph.

Kaladin vs. Vin who wins?

Yes this ask is months old

Yes im just seeing it

Yes im going to anwser

TL;DR: it depends on the situation, how much metal vs stormlight they have. But like, 80% chance Kaladin wins.

Longer explanation:

Again, it does depend. Stormlight is an all encompassing fuel, where all of his powers are fueled by one thing. Vin has all those other metals she has to take for different things

Obviously in no stormlight no metals hand-to-hand, or even spear vs dagger, Kaladin wins. I dont think i need to explain this.

If they both had infinite stormlight and infinite metal, with Vin having access to ALL metals, including god metals, i still do think Kaladin would win. Despite Atrium existing, even though could see what he was about to do, he can heal any attack she makes— and i dont think she would have the knowledge to strike him in the spine specifically. I think at some point she would be trapped in a blow she cannot deflect and it would go downhill from there, seeing as she cannot heal wounds.

Limited stormlight, limited metals with lets say 2~ minutes worth of Atrium, Vin wins. He’d spend all his stormlight healing the wounds Vin gives him with her Pewter(?) strength and daggers that he wouldnt have the ability to kill her fast enough for her Atrium to wear out

So i was thinking about your Wolfstar Marvel AU again (it should pay rent with how much it's spinning around my head) and like,,,, Sirius not having any kind of closure about Remus,,, he doesn't know what happened to him, they never found a body or any traces of him and then he was pronounced dead and Sirius just. Doesn't know. He doesn't even know why they took Remus in the first place. And he probably feels guilty about it too (bc ofc he would!!!). Just, the lack of closure of it all, the big question mark haunting him, up until 70+ years later when he's face-to-face with Remus again (I'm loving it)

Hi hi hi!!!! 💕💕💕 Thank you so much for the ask! I am so happy we both find it consuming haha and I agree. AU needs to start paying me hourly wages for just how much it keeps me up and wondering at night. I would be in tears and at the end of my wit, if I had to do just part of this research in school (I was not into history or any literature for school, and that's putting it mildly.) and now I do this willingly lol.

You know one of those, "I'm so glad you asked"- *7 hour long vm* memes? I fear this will end up like that. Bear with me.

Before we get into that, I'll clear up some background? So Remus was first taken along with a lot of their troop (ambush?), and they were partially injected (plot reasons plot reasons!! I feel like you can guess why!!) and the Sirius and co rescued them etc etc. And then Remus was targeted specifically.

So before the permafrost, I feel the situation was very bad for Sirius. For one, he would have agreed to the Serum in the first place because Remus was in captivity (also for the war effort, of course, but to Sirius, at that point there really was no room for question which may have been there otherwise), and then he got Remus back. Just to lose him again.

And then, to the Military and almost everyone else, Hope and Lyall Lupin lost a son, but Sirius Black lost a fellow soldier. He lost a comrade. Sure, they were friends, so him being vengeful is believable, to an extent. And no one really gets the blank look in his eyes, after.

I believe there was a quote that went like, "Should you lose a spouse/partner, there is a shared understanding of the relationship, but when you lose a friend, there's no tangible evidence, no widely acknowledged way to mourn."

Except, for Sirius, he did lose his partner, love of his life and dearest friend of so many years. And no one understands. Maybe James and Lily know, but it is the 40s. Realistically, they are quiet about it at best. For him it is both, and all the more painful. And he doesn't get exactly why Remus was targeted either. Remus was at an integral position in the OSS, unusual for his age, recruited at the very beginning, one of the sharpest minds, so it could have been that. And god, he was cold blooded when he got to fighting. But of course, he cannot shake the feeling that it was because of him.

So, in that time, the days he spent looking for Remus with James and Lily, (which really wasn't much, they would not have been allowed to!) he is partially cynical. Not to the point of self-blaming but enough to self-destruct. James tries to get him out of it, but Lily grits her teeth. She doesn't say much, because she understands, I believe, how much at that point he just wants it to end.

*BAM* permafrost.

After he gains consciousness, he would have blanked out for a while, because what even is this? But he doesn't, because after the first few excruciating minutes, when the blood is pounding in his chest, looking at every flash of light, every building and car that look unnatural, really, the first thing he processes is Moody telling him that the War is over. Good, at least something went well, he thinks.

They tell him many soldiers were rescued, because that's the first thing he asks. After it sinks in, he wants to hope, and maybe he does. Because this is real, he can see it. As outlandish as it is, he is in the future. If this can be real, how foolish would it be to hope that maybe Remus made it too? He would be old, and he would have lived his life. Maybe with someone else, and that's okay. If he gets to see him one more time, Jesus, it's okay.

They tell him what happened with HYDRA and his family. They tell him about James Potter and how he revolutionized weapons, they tell him about Lily Potter, who later went on to join the NSA. God, he gets fucking giddy hearing all of that, because it worked out. For someone, it did. For James and Lily, it did. He wants to meet Harry.

And he starts to have a nagging thought, because with how they speak of and to him, maybe they would have mentioned his known childhood friend. And Remus was known to his own credit.

So he asks, slowly about one Remus Lupin?

And lo and behold. They know of him of course, of course, he was Captain America's best friend. But nothing was known of him post war.

He tries to hold his face and nods, but Moody gives him a strange look. Tells him that he'll look into it for him. He tamps it down, though, there is no point in a wishful fantasy. He would have begged Moody if required, but there really is no point. And he doesn't think he can open his mouth without saying something incriminating.

Moody offers him the initiative, of course, but they tell him to take a breath, see the world, find himself first. And he does, he takes a few days. But then he gets time to think about it, to mull things over, to reevaluate his last choices. When he is trying to ease into the new world, he is busy, things are overwhelming. But once he gets home, he spirals. He remembers how panicky he had been during the first rescue mission. He had been desperate. And what if that clued them in? There were others in the OSS. So why just Remus?

It had to be him.

So he throws himself into missions, trains hard, exhausts himself so doesn't have to think. He does what he's always been doing, he helps SHIELD and doesn't question much, because he is still processing. Some things stick out but one can only handle so much, yeah? Besides, James and Lily were the co-founders.

He finds out. Well. Many things about his past and it's just so much (I'll stop or this itself will spiral to 3k.)

I feel he's quite mercurial at times in these days. Unsettled, but he keeps going. He drinks sometimes, gets shit faced. Those days are increasing, really.

Then he meets Elena.

And there is something striking about her. Such a young girl, and he can see it in her eyes that she has seen a lot. Too much. He sees himself in her. And he is protective. He is maybe a little taken aback. Because she seems so much... like an old soul.

And Elena is drawn to him too. She opens up, slowly, slowly, which she doesn't normally. But he is fiery. Like her. And they mostly have the same stances. She doesn't speak of her childhood, and so he doesn't ask. She does mention she had a dad, and though seemingly not for long, she remembers her name from him.

She seeks out his company and it soothes something in him. I feel he's a little more settled? With time? I mean it's hard to pity yourself when there is someone dragging you out to bowl and join soccer clubs, when that someone is a loner too. Even though thinking of Remus' hurts a little more each day, because he feels that Elena and Remus would get along so well. Man she even fights like him.

So when he sees Remus again, it is whiplash of the worst kind. Remus is just there. Because it is Remus and it is not, and he is standing there just staring because this Remus even fights the same. And he sees Elena standing frozen there, and it suddenly hits him that she looks... like Remus.

Except for her eyes and it is like he is watching everything from afar. All he can do try to hold Remus back. Until Neville flies them away.

Because what has his life come to?

Elena is not responding. She is not even looking at him. And Sirius is thinking a thousand miles an hour. I think he'd find out everything he can about whoever this Winter Soldier is.

Before they finally bring R in for questioning I feel S would be overcome with guilty and longing and a lot of painful confusion, really.

And mostly, Sirius is guilt ridden. Remus was in there, with them doing who knows what to him, for 70 years? He never deserved that. Sirius was outwardly rebellious. It was his family helping fund HYDRA. And then there's Elena. Is Elena Remus'? Because how in the world did Remus manage to have a kid while he was trapped in a facility?

There is something really cool about her name. if you look closely.

Outside of his blackouts, Remus solely spoke Russian to everyone around him for 70 years right? So it seems logical that's what he'd speak to elena in that environment, mind controlled half the time etc, before they were separated (she was like. 7) and he'd find it a little difficult to slip into English again, or that's what Elena thinks. So when he demands to meet her first, she storms in, defensive stance (Sirius is standing right outside by the way) but Remus just blinks. Because they said it was Elena Chernova. But it's not. It's Helena Black.

And Sirius just. Dies a little.

Basically. He is spiralling.

So is this, so I'll stop here.

Based on this post. + snippet.

Has anyone else noticed the pink sparkles floating around Jinx in this shot? They're not like the stuff left behind by Jinx's shimmer propelled ballistics, which leave an electrified pink trail.

Instead the sparkles remind me of the aftermath of the first hexcrystal explosion. Except with the hexcrystals, we got to see much bigger sparks because the kids were up close to the explosion. Here, it seems like whatever Jinx launched went far enough to leave a small cloud, but the impact of whatever Jinx launched was still sizeable enough to have it's residue reach Jinx in the sky.

I think this could be connected to the teaser Arcane released when they announced s2 was in production after s1's finale. The giant A to represent the arcane is electrified in hextech blue, and then the blue is slowly overtaken by shimmer pink to reveal something new (the 2 for s2).

It could mean that we'll see shimmer (or the substance used to make it) overtake hextech in capability (or at least destructiveness) and Jinx could be the one helming this new direction in the arms race.

Maybe we'll even get an explanation on the vague connection between shimmer and hextech (magic both originating deep in the ground) that the show wanted to include in the first season's story but had to cut down for time (read card in the center top).

Okay so I know you said you don't want Jazz to have any major abilities like mind control, but what about a passive one? My idea is that she could actually subconsciously influence the feelings or restraint of the people around her. It could even be an ability she has at home that she just never noticed. Her parents have their own immunity to it thanks to all the ectoplasmic exposure, but it's helped a couple times with convincing teachers to look the other way for her brother. Clockwork tells her about it when they go to the DCU, so she has the perfect opportunity to practice using it consciously by causing riots via hundreds of people's misplaced aggression (which helps her get her own anger and stress out too).

Actually, that's a really good idea! Passive abilities in the DP characters could be fun to explore and possibly put a hitch in their plans if they have to work around it. I'm all for crack fics where one side is completely blindsided over and over again, but if someone wanted to make it a little more serious, factoring in possible passive abilities can lead to moments where the superheroes actually have a chance at catching/defeating Fenton and the others if they manage to find out about those abilities and use it to their advantage.

As you said, Jazz seems like the best candidate for this; she could be the force that gets the ball rolling. Because if Jazz has passive supernatural abilities, then what are the chances Danny and the others have some too? After all, they've been exposed to ectoplasm more than Jazz, and she was never tangled up with a ghost for a long time. (Right? It's been a while since I've watched the show. I don't think she was possessed for a super long time by a powerful ghost or anything.) Or maybe she developed that passive talent as a defense against the more powerful ghosts, and the others don't have that kind of ability at all.

Emotional manipulation is a scary ability, after all; maybe Clockwork allowed her to join Danny for the sake of refining her power.

"it came to me in a dream" except it actually came to me in a dream.

a few nights ago i had a pretty coherent dream where these five were younger kids and living on an ARK-type research facility as test subjects. this might be a stupid concept, but im planning on spending the next few days playing with the idea. more information coming soon :3c (maybe) (also in the tags pls read the tags)

this will probably be tagged with 'lab au' depending on if i come up with a better name

In the Jujutsu Kaisen Official Fanbook, there's an official ranking on the student's classroom learning. Funnily enough, most of the Tokyo students seem to rank pretty low. How high do you think Shiki would rank?

Ohh I think I remember answering this question at some point. Back then my answer for Shiki was... 6-10-10 if I recall correctly, for body strength/constitution-intelligence-sorcery talent.
