Every man desires of having a ‘Greek God’ like physique. In order to achieve this, people use various supplements to boost their performance. Stacking a steroid with another to yield adequate results has been quite common these days. One such process is the cycle of proviron and stanozolol. 

What is Proviron and How it Functions? 

• Proviron is the brand name for Mesterolone and is one of the oldest anabolic androgenic steroids available in the market.
• It is a dihydrotestosterone (DHT) derived anabolic androgenic steroids.
• It carries an androgenic rating of 30-40 and an anabolic rating of 100-150.
• Proviron is considered to be the best in the treatment of androgen inadequacies.
• It has a strong affinity to attach to the Sex-Hormone-Binding-Globulin (SHBG). It binds to SHBG by upto 65% and testosterone to 99%.
• Binding to SHBG will enhance the amount of circulating free testosterone.
• It also interacts with aromatase enzyme which is responsible for the conversion of testosterone to estrogen.

Understanding Stanozolol: 

• Stanozolol is one of the most popular drugs as it has gained worldwide media attention a number of times. It is popular by its brand name Winstrol.
• It is structurally altered form of DHT hormone.
• The structural changes made to DHT are responsible in reducing its androgenicity and increases the anabolic activity to a great extent.
• Some of the functions of Winstrol include-

• Reduction of SHBG- Studies have shown that it can reduce SHBG by as much as 50%. When SHBG is lowered, more testosterone is available for use.
• Protein Synthesis- Proteins are the building blocks of muscle tissue and Stanozolol promotes protein synthesis.
• Nitrogen Retention- Higher rates of nitrogen retention results in greater anabolic activity.
• Red Blood Cells- It increases the count of red blood cells leading to greater oxygen flow that in turn will enhance muscular endurance.
• Glucocorticoids: It reduces Glucocorticoids (stress hormones) which are responsible for fat gain and muscle loss.
