Max-One is an oral steroid which contains 10 mg of the hormone Methandienone.

Max-One is the most popular name for this steroid by bodybuilders. Max-One is credited with being the second anabolic steroid ever created, with the first being testosterone. It is the most popular oral that there is. It is popular with those new to anabolic substances due to how quickly it provides a gain in mass and strength.

Due to its fast effects on the body, It makes a great “jump start” to any cycle. Here, bodybuilders, will take the drug at the beginning of a cycle to start seeing results immediately while waiting for the slower esters of the injectable anabolics to start taking affect. Users of itoften report significant gains in strength and muscle mass. Max-One is also famous for the intense “pump” that it gives the muscles during workouts. This is mostly due to the fact that Max-One dramatically increases protein synthesis and nitrogen retention within the muscle cells.

Mg for Mg, Max-One is considered one of the strongest anabolic orals available to bodybuilders. It is important to note that some do suffer from estrogen related problems with the usage of Methandienone, including bloat and sometimes “gyno” (the development of female tissue under the nipples in males resulting in unattractive and often painful lumps in this area). Because of this, bodybuilders may prefer to use an estrogen inhibitor such as anastrozole or tamoxifen while on this steroid. Like many other orals, Max-One  is a C17-alpha alkylated compound and therefore can be potentially toxic to the liver. It is recommended that bodybuilders using Max-One also incorporate a liver protectant into their daily supplement regime, and that they keep their dosages of it in reasonable range and try to limit cycle duration to 10 weeks or less. Max-One can make a great addition to any cycle, and is commonly stacked with all injectable steroids.

As mentioned earlier, It  makes a great start to any cycle, but it is also important to note that bodybuilders frequently use Max-One as a “bridge” between cycles and as a means to recovery from a cycle. Here, Max-One can be taken in a low dose (10 mg a day) during PCT or in between cycles to keep androgen levels high and to maintain strength and mass, while allowing the body’s natural testosterone levels to be regained.

Max-One is not a very popular steroid among women bodybuilders due to the fact that it is very prone to causing harsh masculizing side effects. Males typically use Max-One in a dosage range of 25-100 mg a day for a period of 4-10wks, and 10mgs a day for bridging or PCT purposes for as long as needed.
