I copied and pasted this. I have plenty of Alpha in my stash but have yet to use it. This is some common info to be found about it. Everyone has the potential to react differently to something. That is why opinions vary so much on this. Too some it is average and to others it is very harsh. Hopefully this helps you.
Methyl-1-Etiocholenolol-Epietiocholanolone (METHYL 1-AD)
Recommended Dosage- 20-40mgs a day
Average Cycle Length- 3-4 weeks
Methylated-Yes
Toxicity Level- Moderate-High
Estrogen Conversion-No (Some case have reported Gyno flares but typical usage no estrogen issues)
Anabolic/Androgenic ratio: N/A
Synonyms:
Alpha One
Methyl-1-Alpha
Methyl 1 AD
17a-methyl-1-androstene-3b,17b-diol
This is one of the strongest pro-hormones/anabolic designer steroids around. Keep cycles very short with three weeks being the most common cycle length. According to Vida, it's roughly as androgenic as methyl test, but around four times as anabolic (M1T is roughly twice as strong as M1A on both counts, according to the same source).
It's known to have some conversion to M1T (Methyl-1-Testosterone) as M1A/Alpha One is a precursor to M1T, however legit information regarding the rate of conversion is unknown. Most educated estimates are in the 15-20% range. Methyl 1-AD is an already active steroid. Regardless of conversion to M1T, it's plenty sufficient on it's own. Methyl 1-Test is highly hepatotoxic (more so than most methylated orals), and I don't see why this would be markedly less so, since they are both 17a-methylated (which prevents deactivation through metabolism of the 17b-OH), and the covalent bond structure is the same. This concerns me, as people typically run M1A at several times the dosage of M1T. I guess blood work will tell.
This compound is extremely potent and as a result users cycle times are shorter, ranging from 2 weeks to a maximum 4 weeks. Due to the strength of Alpha One it is not at all for first time prohormone users and only to be used by the experienced with On cycle and followed with Post Cycle Therapy.
Alpha One is an oral pro-hormone processed by the liver. Alpha One is methylated, which puts additional strain on the liver. This harsh compounds will negatively impact blood pressure, lipid values, cholesterol levels and will stress your endocrine system. While on paper neither this compound nor its metabolites aromatise, plenty of M1T users have reported on-cycle gyno so it would be prudent to assume a degree of risk with this compound as well.
Because of its strength, you should start with a lower dose in order to understand how you resond. Alpha One cycles are most commonly 3 weeks in length, however advanced users can run 4 week cycles. Dosages above 60mg per day are not recommended. This is a very potent Pro-hormone and yeilds mega potent anabolic effects.
Benefits from Alpha 1 are:
-Increased Lean Mass
-Dense Muscle Gains
-Strength Gains
-No Estrogen Conversion
Methyl 1 AD: HIGHLY POTENT PRECUSOR TO METHYL-1-TESTOSTERONE!!!
