During the 60's-90's, pyramiding was common as post-cycle recovery was dependent upon tapering. Also, the lack of effective aromatase inhibitors and sensitivity to estrogenic side-effects caused some to use lower doses of testosterone and substitute anavar for the dianablol, though with lesser mass and strength benefits. Pre-contest cycles would substitute Primobolan for the testosterone in ever-increasing ratio. Rumors of higher doses are likely invalid as water retention and gynecomastia would have been evident.

i dont know how true that is but to me it makes some sence. if you dont have a way to combat sides, then the use of a milder compound and a lower doseage would seem to be the way to go. the results wont be as dramatic but neither will the gyno.

True I have never seen any of those guys with gyno. Except maybe bill pearl.
