Synthol

[IloveJesus4040]

can you enlighten me on how this is used, how it works, just any information about it that you have, i saw pics of people on it like valentino stuff is WACK!! my source also has this on his list and its extremely expensive i dunno why anybody would buy this

 

[BigRonWannabee]

You know exactly how its used, you saw the pics put 2 and 2 together bro. Oh, and take a good close look at a suprising number of pro's these days.

It is SUPPOSED to work by stretching the fascia, the extremely tough and unforgiving connective tissue that surrounds muscles, by loading the muscle belly with a bolus of oil. After a few months, the fascia is supposedly stretched, the oil dissipates, and the muscle fibers can hypertrophy and take advantage of the extra space.

Does this really work this way? Well, considering the fact that you can almost always tell when a physique is synthol aided, I would say "no".

Perhaps this is because the bolus of oil distorts the muscle so badly that one only notices the synthol body in the month or so after the treatment has been started, and we never notice once the oil has dissipated and the muscle takes advantage of this treatement and regains it's "natural" look.

Or perhaps it's because most synthol users abuse this compound so badly that the results are nothing short of comical. Perhaps they are not intending to use it the way it was instructed to be used, and they are interested in achieving comic book proportions(Valentino).

Who knows, but it doesnt have the best reputation, thats for sure. I have heard synthol mentioned countelss times when discussing Pro-BBers, and not once was it followed by a compliment.

Maybe this short clip will help you re-think Synthol!!!

what a fucking mutt he is!!! that link should be called www.mostfuckingstupidlyretarded.com/bradhomo.rm!!!

That guy ruined his biceps with that shit. What a fucking joke that stuff is. I just looked at his face and that video and wonder how he can even think that that looks anywhere good. The moutain looks as if you could pinch it and pop it on top. Two words on that shit Fucking foolish.

 

[Bimmer]

what hes saying is that synthol will not make your biceps a natural shape. Yes they get big but they look deformded

 

[Osiris of dis Shit]

I dont understand what you are saying. If you can tell when their biceps are on synthol then wouldn't that mean its working? Look at valentino, his biceps are huge and everyone knows he uses synthol. IF the synthol did nothing for his biceps they would either shrink down to normal size or he would have to inject and never stop shooting them. Wasn't he in jail? Im sure he didn't have synthol in jail so if synthol did nothing wouldn't his biceps have shrunk down to their previous size?

What are you asking? It takes MONTHS for the oil to dissipate. He had a ton of oil in them. Are you saying that valentino's muscles still have oil in them making them big? If so, then yeah, he made them big, but they are probably as soft as a silicone tit.

Or are you suggesting that the synthol did serve it's intended purpose and stretched the fascia, the oil dissipated, and that the bicep you see on Valentino is in fact his own muscle?

Either way, it looks fucking silly and unnatural. I've never felt his arms, so i dont know if it's soft like it's filled with oil, or if it's hard muscle....but I don't want arms like that. Do you? Every time I have heard synthol mentioned when discussing a bodybuilder, it's to describe how fucked up it made them look(ex. Flex Wheeler). Most people share my opinion that synthol sucks. If you like it, then more power to ya.

when i was brand spanking new to this site (last month...go ahead, laugh) i posted a thread about synthol asking if it worked b/c i am convinced that i have the worlds smallest calves. keep in mind, this is before doing any research on it...i had only heard about this magic oil that you spot inject that give you localized growth.

after stonecoldnto answered my question of "if synthol worked" and posted a link saying "just ask greg valentine", i almost fell out of my fucking chair when i clicked the link. let me tell you how fast the though of ever using that shit flew out of my mind!

those guys look like complete douche bags and i don't see how anyone in their right mind would ever think about using that shit! i'm not flaming anyone on this site at all, i'm just stating what i think about the retards that i've seen.

 

[Osiris of dis Shit]

im not disagreeing i do think it looks like shit to but you seem to know something about it and thats why i was asking you about your reply.

you say it takes months for the oil to get out of there? i have heard it only takes a couple weeks (its just oil like any other injectable steroid is in oil).

Im asking if it dissipates then how come valentinos arms are still so big? wouldn't they shrink down? so because they are big there must be some reason, right?

do you think the oil is still in there (meaning it stays in longer than the weeks i have read it stays in there)

or

do you think he just keeps injecting it all the time so they stay full

or is the oil actually stretching his fascia and that is why his arms are so big?

I think it's just sterilized MCT oil. I'm pretty confident that it lasts longer than a couple of weeks, that would defeat the purpose of prologed stretching of the fascia. You are supposed to inject like 1-3 ccs every day into the same muscle belly so that the oil bolus can "build up"...you do this over a period of a month or more. Obviously Valentino did it for much longer than that.

I haven't gone around to any reputed synthol users and felt the muscle in question. Maybe Valentino's arm is filled with oil and he keeps shooting synthol to keep it big, or maybe he just overdid it and distorted the fascia, and thus distorted the natural shape and growth of the muscle. All I know is it looks like shit.

People describe Flex Wheeler as having one of the greatest BBing physiqes ever...until he "destroyed his calves with synthol". Lots of other Pros are reputed to use synthol, yet some people disagree with those accusations. Maybe they are able to do it such that they can maintain a natural look. This might be evidence that Synthol works. We dont know the truth....and those pros certainly wont admit it. But there are enough bad examples out there to discourage me from using it. Besides, most people heere have neither the size nor the proportions to be looking for a simple "spot enlargement".

 

[Spartie]

Just stay away from the synthol...you will run a high risk of abcess development if you shoot it.

 

[FATMEXICAN]

Looks like a quick fix. Hell your muscles will be big.

 

[Numbnutz11731]

Just plain old retarded looking

 

[joltan]

it has fatty acids in it, and thats why it stays in your muscles for such a long time. There are tons of people who use synthol, but theres such a bad rap on it from people like valantino and other people who abuse it, that no one will admit to using it. If you use it responsibly and not try to add a crazy amount of size into one muscle, then theres no distortion and your muscles look bigger and synthol free. Adding 1/8 or 1/4 into one muscle should be the max you use for problem areas, synthol is not a solution , but it can help to get a jumpstart. Osiris, synthol actually hardens up in your muscles so it feels very hard. I used it in my calves (responsibly) and was very satisfied with it.

apparently it breaks down slowly over a 3-5 year peroid

All the info you find on Synthol will be negitive info because anyone who uses it in moderation and ends up looking great as a result isn't going to go and brag about it. He is probably going to say it is all because of Cell Tech or something.

Agreed. I know several guys who use it and use it responsibilty. Most pros and top amateurs use it. Its not for beginers, its not a quick fix and it should not be used to sick extremes like Valentino. But if you are a huge monster with one lagging bodypart in can help out alot.

Silica is supposed to help make it longer lasting. Many brands use collegen. Stay away from those ones. Most people should stay away alltogether but if you are competing on a high level you may need it.

Re: SDF

THIS WAS POSTED BY BIG A, A MOD ON PROFESSIONAL MUSCLE.COM AND AN IBFF PRO.


How do Site Oils work? To begin with, they do not stay in the muscle for 3 to 5 years. They get dissipated within months. However, during this time, they have stretched the fascia of that muscle. The fascia is a great constrictive factor in muscle growth. The more stretched the fascia is the more the muscle will grow and the more it will have that `popping' look. Site oils stay in there long enough for the fascia to stretch. As they dissipate, the `space' left by them is replaced with new muscle tissue growth. That is the reason why when x-rays where performed on some of the people that have 25"+ arms, there was no oil found in there. The oil dissipated and it was replaced by real muscle.
The principle is the same as the one behind site shots with steroids, but it works at a much a larger degree, because the Site Oils take that much longer to dissipate.



THOUGHTS? HE SAYS THE 'YEARS' ISN'T TRUE IT IS MONTHS.

That's pretty much exactly what I said Bigted. These are the claims of those who advocate the use of and/or sell Synthol. Like I said, I dont know the truth but this is what I have read as well. Some guys around here have used it and they seem to say good things about it, like Joltan in this thread. I guess you'll just have to weigh the advantages against the disadvantages and try to seperate fact from fiction.

 

[Golgo13]

This guy changed my mind on site injecting oils:

The shape of his delts and tris are obviously different, and I think better.
