Phenylopropionate is very similar to the popular Decanoate. Phenylopropionate must be injected frequently and in regular intervals, every 2-3 days. The substance -phenylpropionate quickly gets into the blood, where it remains active for two to three days. The dosage is around 50-150 mg per injection, or a total of 150-600 mg/week. Phenylopropionate has a distinct anabolic effect which assists the protein synthesis and allows the protein to be stored in the muscle cell in large amounts. This is combined with a moderate ic component which stimulates the athlete's regeneration and helps maintain the muscle mass during a diet. It shows that Phenylopropionate stores much less water in the body than Decanoate. For this reason, Durabolin is more suitable for a preparation for a competition while Deca should be given preference for the buildup of strength and muscle mass. Phenylopropionate, however, can be used for this purpose as well. The gains are fewer and slower than with Deca but of a higher quality and remain, for the most part, after discontinuing the compound. This is mostly due to the fact that lower dosages are used in most cases, resulting in less HPTA suppression.
