TURINABOL® (4-Chlorodehydromethyltestosterone) has a much lower level of androgenic activity compared to DIANABOL®, but a better balance/ratio of anabolic and androgenic effects. It has a rating of a 0 for androgenic properties and an over 100 for anabolic properties based on a score of 100 each for testosterone. This promotes more of a "hard" look, of what competition bodybuilders often call "quality" muscle. Due to this 4-chloro substitution in the A-Ring, Turinabol cannot be aromatized. This is quite beneficial and is one of the reasons oral Turinabol has been called a "gentle d-bol". One will not get any typical estrogenic side effects like water retention, acne, gyno, etc, at any dose of this steroid. For bodybuilding purposes, this makes Turinabol a great pre-contest or cutting steroid. Athletes in sports where speed tends to be a primary focus would also find favor in Turinabol, obtaining a strong anabolic benefit without having to carry around any extra water or fat weight.
