Stanozolol, better known as Winstrol, is a DHT-derived oral (and injectable) steroid that’s been a cutting-phase classic for decades. It’s dry, hard, and brutally effective—making it a favorite for pre-contest prep and summer shredding cycles.
Unlike wet compounds, Winstrol doesn’t aromatize—so you can expect no water retention, razor-sharp definition, and improved vascularity. But make no mistake—it’s not side-effect-free.
HOW IT’S USED IN AAS CYCLES
Winstrol is commonly used in the final 4–6 weeks of a cut, either solo or stacked with other dry compounds like Mast, Primo, or Tren.
Oral dosing ranges from 25–50 mg/day, while the injectable version (Winny Depot) is typically dosed at 50 mg every day or every other day.
POTENTIAL BENEFITS

Dry, Hard Look – Strips subcutaneous water and tightens your appearance fast.

Increased Vascularity & Definition – Especially noticeable in lean athletes.

Strength Preservation During Cuts – Helps maintain performance even in a deficit.

No Estrogenic Side Effects – Zero aromatization = no bloat, no gyno.
SIDE EFFECTS & RISKS

Liver Toxicity – Like most orals, it’s hepatotoxic. Run NAC or other liver support with it.

Joint Pain – Many users report dry, achy joints—especially in deep cuts.

Cholesterol Impact – Can tank HDL and spike LDL rapidly. Get your lipids checked.

Hair Loss Risk – DHT-derived, so it may accelerate shedding in sensitive individuals.
Winny delivers what it promises—dry gains, strength, and an aesthetic polished look—but at a cost. Run it responsibly, support your liver, and don’t forget your post-cycle bloodwork.
