retain 2 while ON cycle

[Nightwanderer]

I originally bought a bottle of retain 2 as a component in my PCT after an epistane cycle, but I think I may just buy the triple stack
here at nutraplanet because the price is good. Can I take my current bottle of Retain 2 while ON cycle, or will a cortisol blocker
while on cycle be detrimental?

Id save it for post cycle.

What are your goals for this cycle? Is it a cutting cycle?

As Nate mentioned, however, Retain works great for post cycle (hence the name...retain as in retaining your gains). It not only works to prevent cortisol-induced muscle loss, but fat gain as well.

Actually my goals are a bit unique, I'm trying to combat atrophy and increase strength in my legs due to a disability.
My initial thread here at AM goes into detail about it.

Of course I'm taking adavantage on the effects of a cycle on the rest of my body though, hehe.

anabolic steroids help block the effects of hormones such as cortisol involved in tissue breakdown during and after exercise. in other words aas suppresses cortisol.

lower cortisol levels prevent tissue from breaking down following of an intense work-out. this speeds recovery.

cortisol causes protein breakdown and is secreted during exercise to enhance the use of proteins for fuel and to suppress inflammation that accompanies tissue injury.

however, many negative health effects arise from extremly low cortisol levels. this is why further suppressing your cortisol levels during a cycle is not necessarily a good idea.
additionally, suppressed cortisol levels rebound once the cycle is finished. the lower they are suppressed the higher the rebound typically. this is why cortisol control such as retain2 are most benefitial pct.

summary:
using retain2 on cycle could potentially annialate your cort levels to an unhealthy range.
further, your cortisol rebound may be so great following your cycle you could have difficulty controllng it. and these high cortisol levels will quickly destroy your gains.

yeah I did some research myself and came to the same cocnlusion more or less in a thread in the steroid section of the forum.
