So I've heard mixed reviews on this product and note that its not a hormone and since I'm off I thought I'd give it a try, I have 5 100ml bottles and will be running 2ML per day starting today. Since I'm taking absolutely nothing else the results should be ver transparent. Just doing 30 mins cardio later no weights today, since being off I've cut my weight training down some and generally get about 3 days a week in. General description below on the supposed active ingredients, bought mine from French company online.
Kynoselen was one of those weird quasi-legal, grey market drugs that was used in horse racing and found their way into the anabolic arsenal of many athletes and bodybuilders. I will be frank and say that it’s effects are generally more profound in those who are already reasonably lean and muscular. I’ve noticed, in my research that the biggest mitigating factor in this stuff’s use is that it’s not doing mych (cosmetically) for those whose bodyfat is too far over 12%....over 15% and I’d go so far as to say Kynoselen is a waste. It’s fat burning properties are felt proportionately with how lean you already are, and it will help with vascularity if you’re lean also. Women seem to be much bigger proponents of this stuff than males, generally, but that’s probably because they tend to aim for comparatively less gains than men, and thus are much more satisfied with a few lean pounds or a few solid strength increases. Again, on a lean 125lb female, 5lbs of lean mass is very noticeable…much more so than on a male twice that size.
Lets unpack a bottle of Kynoselen and see what’s in it:
•AMP (adenosine monophosphate) is what I’d consider to be the primary active ingredient of Kynoselen. This is a source of phosphorous. It combines with 2 phosphate atoms to become ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which provides an immediate source of cellular energy. AMP aids lipolysis,(1) or fat-burning, and it’s probably the inclusion of this ingredient that make Kynoselen’s effects in this area the most profound. It also has the ability to convert to ATP, or Adenosine Tri Phosphate. ATP is the primary carrier of energy within your cells, and most cells die quickly in the absence of it. ATP in turn powers your muscles. This is probably why users of Kynoselen report an increase in “energy levels.”
• Magnesium Aspartate has a major role in muscle contraction(5)(6), and this is why it’s in high demand with many strength athletes. When Dan Duchaine made his supplement recommendations nearly a decade ago in Muscle Media, this was on the list. Magnesium also activates enzymes necessary for the metabolism of carbohydrates and amino acids which lead to protein synthesis.
• Heptaminol is also included in this preparation, and aids in dilation of coronary blood vessels and could thereby act as a sort of transport aid for oxygenated blood(4). I’m sure this is partly why it’s given to race horses as a kind of “wellness tonic.”
• Cyanocobalamin (vitamin b-12) has been included in Kynoselen, and bodybuilders and other athletes have known about its role in increasing energy and appetite stimulation. A deficiency in this vitamin leads to anemia, so it’s always a good idea to include it in your diet. The injectable version is also very popular.
• Selenium is an anti-oxidant, and has been used as a protective agent in spinal cord injuries, and I would imagine that keeping race-horses free from injury would be very important to their owners; hence it’s inclusion in this preparation.
• Potassium Aspartate: Mainly, we know that potassium keeps you from cramping, and again, since we are examining a compound given to racehorses, it’s logical to assume that a smart breeder/owner would like to prevent his horse from cramping when when millions of dollars are on the line in a race. Potassium also assists in many cardiac functions, and will probably act synergistically with magnesium to aid in muscle contractions(7).
Looking over the ingredients of Kynoselen, it’s easy to see why it’s used for horse racing, and I think it’s use in athletics is pretty obvious. Sprinters and strength athletes would greatly benefit from the various energy producing substrates in it, as well as the ingredients added to increase contractile strength in skeletal muscle. I have heard about some pretty decent increases in strength from the sole use of this compound, and certainly it’s found it’s way into many powerlifters cycles.
For bodybuilders, it’s benefits are pretty different. It seems to be most widely used for PCT, when it can be used in conjunction with our SERMs and AI’s to hold onto gains by increasing our ability to continue using the weights that got us to the size we were while on anabolics.
Kynoselen comes as a 100ml multi-use vial, and typically athletes and bodybuilders pay $50-$75 for it, and inject between 1-3mls per day. The only complaint I’ve heard about it is that it’s painful to inject it, so I would recommend injecting it with an equal amount of b-12.
