19-Nor is the chemical compound used in 'Tren' prohormones.
Names of Pro-hormones that are 19-nor based include, but are not limited to;
Trenadrol, Trenavol-v, X-Tren
19-Nor pro-hormones are clones of the worlds strongest ever black market steroid, Trenbolone. The ultimate in cutting steroids, Trenbolone (Finaplix) has an anabolic to androgenic ratio of 500/500. Trenbolones anabolic score of 500, compared to Testosterones score of 100 only shows just how strong Trenbolone really is. 19-Nor prohormones increase nitrogen retention within muscle tissue, as well as binding to the anti-anabolic glucocorticoid hormone. It is also believed that this binding may inhibit the hormone Cortisol, the catabolic hormone. 19-Nor based prohormones also bind to androgen receptors, there are androgen receptors within fat cells, the stronger the bind is to these receptors the stronger the fat loss results are.
Because of how 19-Nor prohormones effect estrogen/androgen ratios, they also reduce water underneath the skin. Tren pro-hormones with their astonishing anabolic ratios build muscular tissue very quickly as well as increasing strength levels. Best of all, 19-Nor prohormones are not methylated, meaning their liver toxicity is extremely low, if at all.
With all these positive effects of 19-Nor prohormones, with no liver toxicity, some may say they're the ultimate in pro-hormones. It would certainly seem that way, and they are without a doubt the absolute best pro-hormones to be used if you're looking to get that dry, ripped look whilst still building muscular mass and gaining strength. Ideal for any competitive athlete who trains vigorously but needs to keep weight low, or for the average joe who wants to have a jaw dropping beach body ready for summer.
It does however come with it's negative effects. 19-Nor pro-hormones shut down the bodies production of testosterone quicker than almost any other compound, although it is no guarantee. The results of this can lead to libido deficiency and other side effects. In order to keep this to a minimum there are a few things that can be done;
1 - Running D-aspartic acid alongside your Tren pro-hormone will increase the production of luteinizing hormone and minimize the risk of natural testosterone inhibition. D-Aspartic acid has been shown in clinical trials to increase natural testosterone levels up to 70%, and averagely 42% in 20 day trials. Baring this in mind you could use D-Aspartic acid both alongside your cycle and in your PCT.
2 - Getting the best PCT. Ideally using a PCT that included prescription only SERMS Clomid would be the best for your testosterone along with HCG. However if using an OTC PCT, then one including ATD, 6-Bromo and D-Aspartic Acid would be the best option. We recommend running BPI Arimidex HD with BBS D-Aspartic Acid.
3 - Keeping a high source of essential fatty acids and saturated fats in your diet will keep natural testosterone levels ticking. Your testosterone itself is made from fatty lipids, so keep them topped up. Keep plenty of nuts, red meats and by all means some fish oils and flaxseed oil will do you good.
4 - Keeping high levels of B6 will also help. Part of the reason for libido decrease is the increase in prolactin levels that Tren pro-hormones can cause, it is believed that keeping high levels of B6 (500-700mg per day) will decrease prolactin levels.
With this baring in mind Tren pro-hormones are still the most effective in terms of fat loss and we've had no reported side effects as of yet from any of our users. Now let's get back onto some positive news.
Because of their lack of liver toxicity these pro-hormones can be stacked with Methylated compounds. Stacking Trenavol-V with Halodrol for instance would be the penultimate cutting stack, or Trenavol-V with Cynostane would be a dry mass gaining stack with shocking strength results. This is however only advised to advanced and experienced users of pro-hormones and is not something we personally recommend, but it will produce good results.
