I'm not advocating it, but the following rationale in support of Dbol Bridging is the one I have seen most on the internet:
The Dianabol Bridge Explained
I've been reading some of the posts regarding this
bridge and some of them are truly from left-field.
First of, this is a BRIDGE. OK? A B-R-I-D-G-E.
Your LH function and Test levels are supposed
to RECOVER.
Ok, now having said that.
Here's the pharma-kinetics behind Methandrostenolone,
brand name Dianabol.
10mg taken at once will increase your average testosterone level by 5 times and decrease your endogenous cortisone
by 50-70%.
The reason why Dianabol is a good choice for a bridge is that
it’s VERY anti-catabolic. It’s also dopaminergic giving you the
benefits of increased CNS strength modulation by
its androgenic mode of action.
Androgens, in case you don't know, increase neuro-muscular
function, thus STRENGTH.
OK. Now, let’s delve into the metabolic chemistry behind
dianabol's choice as a bridging agent.
When are testosterone levels highest?
Answer: In the AM, that’s when.
Your body releases a testosterone spike in the morning.
This is when testosterone levels are highest.
When are Insulin levels lowest?
Answer: In the AM that’s when.
Low insulin levels=increased protein used as fuel.
(Also fat, but protein is also being converted
to glucose via glucogenesis)
OK, here is where Dianabol’s short half-life works for us
(It’s 3.2-4.5 hrs btw)
lets take Subject X.
He's in bridging mode.
He has just woken up.
The body is about to release testosterone, thus
creating a spike.
His insulin levels are low.
His LH and test levels are very low.
He pops 10mgs of Dianabol.
Here is where things get interesting.
The 10mgs of Dianabol will cause a testosterone
spike WHICH COINCIDES WITH the testosterone
released ENDOGENOUSLY in the AM by the testes.
The body will be partially fooled.
It will not entirely detect the increased levels of testosterone
(above the normal test spike), thus LH function WILL
REMAIN only partially (Very little actually) suppressed.
In other words, he is "piggy-backing" an extra dose of testosterone on top of the endogenously reduced one,
thus creating an "inflated" test spike.
Henceforth, LH levels WILL BE ALLOWED TO SLOWLY
RECOVER over time.
Also, Dianabol’s anti-catabolic effect will help curb protein-loss
in the morning from low insulogenic levels.
HOWEVER and here is where almost all of you go wrong.
You CANNOT GO PAST 10mg of Dianabol in the AM
for this bridge to work!!!!
Why? Because of the blood levels of Dianabol you would generate.
10mg in the AM will be broken down to 5mg in about 4 hrs
(Probably less)
5mg of Dianabol, is not enough to cause another rise
in testosterone levels after the preceding one. Thus,
LH function is allowed to up-regulate.
Anything more (Say 20mgs), will cause a SECONDARY
testosterone spike which WILL inhibit LH function further,
thus not allowing LH function to recover.
The difference between 20mgs and 10mgs means the difference
between allowing LH to recover slowly and not allowing it to.
So, here's the scenario summed up:
Beginning: LOW LH and test.
Adding the 10mgs Dianabol
LH is allowed to SLOWLY RECOVER over time as
testosterone levels are kept at a level which
will not cause muscle-loss. Also, Dianabol’s anti-catabolic effects
will reduce protein degradation.(Via cortisone
reduction)
This is what i call a double positive. You have managed to
INCREASE anabolism (Test levels) and DECREASE
catabolism (cortisone), during a bridge to boot!!
The bridge should last 8 weeks, NO LESS.
I also have to say, that it WILL NOT restore
complete LH function. It'll get you 80-90%
of the way there but the only way you're going
to get your full LH function back is if you go OFF
completely.
Anavar WILL NOT restore LH completely either btw.
(In case anybody is wondering.)
The difference is that with anavar you can take it
throughout the day and with Dianabol it HAS TO BE
once in the AM.
Hope that clears the air.
