EXTROGENX Post-Cycle Therapy

WHY POST-CYCLE THERAPY IS IMPORTANT? During the anabolic phase when the body stocks up protein to build muscle, the body’s testosterone levels are at its greatest. But this testosterone influx is externally induced from weight training and supplements needed to sustain to protein gain. When this happens, the body’s internal production of testosterone is shut down to achieve a state of balance, or homeostasis. But what happens when you have completed the anabolic phase?

The body isn’t like a light bulb that you can immediately shut on and off it needs time to bounce back from its below-normal testosterone levels to its normal levels, however, during this gap that may span from weeks to month, you may lose the protein mass you gained, resulting to a relapse shortly after you have bulked up.

The role of post cycle (PCT) is to fill in the gap or interval between the completion of anabolic cycle and the point when the body regains its internal capacity to produce its own testosterone without the need for external stimuli. It fills the void to maintain the level of testosterone in the body, thus preventing muscle growth relapse. PCT should be employed until such time when the body can produce its own testosterone.
