When's the best time to dose sd? Pre workout? Before bed? Or it don't matter.

well you should be splitting your doses up. SD has a very short half-life (i think like 6 hrs) so you should split doses ideally 12 hrs apart or even better 3 doses split throughout day/night.
A lot of guys take it an hour or so before workout...may assist workout more i'm not sure but I think the main reason for this is they will have peak blood concentration after workout and get the most out of the large amount of protein/carbs/fats you consume then.
I just take 3 doses split about 7 hours apart

I usually take mine with a meal too, as I found It sometimes gives me abdominal pains if taken on empty stomach... And I theorize would make absorption more gradual instead of all at once?

If caps are 10mg each split them in two. One Am as one an hour before workout.

I would never lift first thing in morning. You have no food energy in your muscles and will not be able to lift as heavy as later in day, so will not get the most effective workout.

What about the food you ate the night before? What will that do for you in the morning? So everyone who trains fasted in the morning is all mixed up?
Also, half life for SD is somewhere around 9-10 hours.

I personally like it pre workout,and I don't care if its with food or not,because sometimes I work out early as well and cant eat pre,as long as I have some fish oils to take with it.Just take it the second your feet hit the floor with some fish oils!

Not going to be the case for everyone,most of my best workouts are early morning and without food because of time restrictions,and I still workout early with a small breakfast when I have the time.I do not like late day workouts as I am already drained and get no where near the sessions I do in the A.M.

Well it doesn't matter what your test levels are when on superderol...
And I still reckon if you switched to arvo lifting u would be able to lift noticeably heavier and/or more reps. Assuming you've been eating properly and haven't been drained too much at work offcourse...

Trust me id rather not lift first thing in the morning either but I have no choice. I work 2 jobs m-f and have a newborn. The only time i can lift is if I get my ass outta bed before work. I get best results lifting about 3-4 hrs after I get up. Which is what I used to do in the past. Gotta take what I can get now tho.

I will deff give this a try tomorrow morning. I've never had a problem taking sd on an empty stomach so ill try it. Oh btw I'm actually taking prostanivar. Which is 15mg sd 25mg hdrol each dose. 8 days in. So far so good.

I was not commenting on his levels,was giving my personal opinion and preference to your statement in general.Sorry if I was confusing in some way,but I still prefer to lift in the morning no matter what Im on unless I have no choice.

First dose in the morning on empty stomach. Next dose 8 hours later. Largest dos in the am. So 20mg when waking then 10mg 8 hours later if ur going that high. If ur doing 20mg then 10mg in morning and 10mg 8 hours later. If ur only doing 10mg id take it pre workout. About an hour before ish. That's how I've always dosed.
