The functions and traits of Stanozolol Winstrol are numerous and can be best understood by looking at each one individually:

1.Reduction of SHBG

Stanozolol Winstrol has the ability to significantly reduce Sex-Hormone-Binding-Globulin (SHGB). In fact, data has shown Stanozolol Winstrol can reduce SHBG by as much as 50% making it one of the most effective medications available for such a function. SHBG is one of the primary factors that determine how muchtestosterone in the body is free or bound; higher SHBG means less free testosterone, which represents our active and usable testosterone. When SHBG is lowered more testosterone is available for use. Equally important for the steroid user is that other steroids that may be used are more effective when SHBG is lower.

2. Protein Synthesis

Protein synthesis refers to the rate in which cells build proteins, the building block of muscle tissue. With Stanozolol Winstrol the rate of protein synthesis is increased.

3. Nitrogen Retention

All muscle tissue is comprised of 16% nitrogen and when adequate amounts are not retained we enter into a catabolic (muscle wasting) state. Higher rates of nitrogen retention results in a greater anabolic (muscle building) state.

4. Red Blood Cells

Red blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen through the blood. Stanozolol Winstrol will increase red blood cell count resulting in greater oxygen flow and thereby enhanced muscular endurance.

5. Glucocorticoids

Glucocorticoids (stress hormones) often referred to as muscle wasting hormones (cortisol is the most well known) promote fat gain and muscle loss. Stanozolol Winstrol inhibits glucocorticoids. It will not remove all from your body and you do need some for health reasons, but too much can be problematic. The reduction in glucocorticoids by Stanozolol Winstrol is not as significant as many other anabolic steroids, but it's still a trait the steroid possesses.

Winstrol / Stanazolol Specification

What is Winstrol ?

Winstrol Depot (stanozolol injectable) is an anabolic steroid with interesting properties. It generally is not used as the foundation of an anabolic steroid cycle, and is not necessary for most cycles. Still, however, it has benefits in certain situations.

Winstrol differs from nearly all other injectables in being 17-alkylated, a property more typically associated with oral anabolic steroids. This results in liver toxicity not usually associated with injectables. Further, in terms of liver toxicity Winstrol may be more potent (have more effect per milligram) than most other alkylated steroids: for this reason I prefer for the injected amount to be limited to 50 mg/day, and period of use to be limited to 6 – 8 weeks.

Additionally, Winstrol may be more prone than other anabolic steroids to increasing tendon brittleness. I am not so concerned about this as to consider it a reason to never use Winstrol at all, but it is reason to limit the total weeks of use per year. I don’t have any firm guideline on that, but for example I consider six weeks of use twice per year a reasonable amount.

Further, Winstrol use sometimes leads to joint pain during a cycle.
