Clenbuterol is a very interesting and remarkable compound. It is not a
steroid hormone but a beta-2-symphatomimetic. Clenbuterol, above all,
has a strong anticatabolic effect, which means it decreases the rate at
which protein is reduced in the muscle cell, consequently causing an
enlargement of muscle cells. For this reason, numerous athletes use
Clenbuterol after steroid treatment to balance the resulting catabolic
phase and thus obtain maximum strength and muscle mass. A fur-ther
aspect of Clenbuterol is its distinct fat-burning effect. Clenbuterol
burns fat without dieting because it increases the body temperature
slightly, forcing the body to burn fat for this process. Due to the
higher body temperature Clenbuterol magnifies the effect of anabolic/androgenic
steroids taken simultaneously, since the protein processing is
increased.
Athletes usually take 5-7 tablets, 100-140 mcg per day For women 80-100
mcg//day are usually suffi-cient, It is important that the athlete begin
by taking only one tablet on the first day and then increasing the
dosage by one tablet each of the following days until the desired
maximum dosage is reached. The compound is usually taken over a period
of 8-10 weeks. Since Clenbuterol is not a hormone compound it has no
side effects typical of anabolic steroids. For this reason it is also
liked by women. Possible side effects of Clenbuterol include
restlessness, palpitations, tremor (involuntary trembling of fingers),
headache, increased per-spiration, insomnia, possible muscle spasms,
increased blood pres-sure, and nausea. Note that these side effects are
of a temporary nature and usually subside after 8-10 days, despite
continuation of the product. In the meantime, Clenbuterol is well
distributed on the black market.
