+ 1 Ester Potentcy

ad

I was reading about esters and I found an interesting article about esters and ratio from esters to test. My question is if a lab had a 300mg test Enanthate, how much of it is ester and how much of its test? Is there a universal ratio or its the labs discretion?

"There is however one way that we can say an ester does technically effect potency; it is calculated in the steroid weight. The heavier the ester chain, the greater is its percentage of the total weight. In the case of testosterone enanthate for example, 250mg of esterified steroid (testosterone enanthate) is equal to only 180mg of free testosterone. 70mgs out of each 250mg injection is the weight of the ester. If we wanted to be really picky, we could consider enanthate slightly MORE potent than cypionate (I know this goes against popular thinking) as its ester chain contains one less carbon atom (therefore taking up a slightly smaller percentage of total weight). Propionate would of course come out on top of the three, releasing a measurable (but not significant) amount more testosterone per injection than cypionate or enanthate."

Bro, your blood plasma level is gonna stabilize with a regular pinning schedule. Is there more Test in a shorter ester than in a longer one. Sure. For me, I'm not gonna turn myself into a pin cushion over this issue. I mean taking this concern to the extreme - just order a case of Test Suspension - it's the real deal - pure testosterone - no ester at all - no "half lives" to calculate. I'm not trying to be a wise ass here but bro - lift heavy and eat right and your body is not going to notice one iota or one scintilla of a difference if you pin Test E vs Test C vs. Test P. And, I'm only kidding about ordering or using Suspension for your Test cycle. The world of AAS is exciting and yes, very scientific indeed - just stick to the basics is my advice - Test E will serve you well for many cycles. Also, please don't bump 2 year old threads unless it's really necessary.

So after reading this mathematical and scientific numbers does that mean that Test Prop is actually better than test E?

Thanks for clearing that up for me bros. I hate math myself but interesting topic! haha

The mg ratio doesnt change enanthat ester is always 76mgs per 100mg same goes for any other ester . So the difference between 250 mgs per ml and 300 mgs per ml would be 50 mgs obviously but if my math isnt failing me 250 mgs is actually 190 mgs of test the rest ester weight. 300 mgs would be about 228 mgs of actual test the rest enanthate ester . Hope i answered your question

Haha your obviously better at math than me i couldnt guess that close had to whip out the calculator

I wanna say test enanthate is around 72 or 76 mgs per 100 mgs and prop being a shorter ester contains more actual test

x2 agreed. I seen exact numbers posted somewhere of most aas compounds. It wouls take some digging to find it again.
