3-AD Black Series

Description

3-AD Black Series

3-AD is a DSHEA-compliant, DASCA-excluded compound that supports anabolic activity through a unique adrenal pathway—without suppressing natural testosterone or causing post-cycle side effects. It is a dietary supplement in the prohormone category designed to support muscle growth, strength, and performance.

3-AD is a natural adrenal metabolite, meaning it’s derived from compounds naturally produced by the adrenal glands. It functions as a prohormone, a precursor to active anabolic hormones like testosterone, and works through the following mechanisms:

1. Androgenic and Anabolic Activity:
   • 3-AD is structurally similar to androstenediol and is converted in the body into active anabolic compounds through enzymatic processes. These metabolites bind to androgen receptors in muscle tissue, promoting muscle protein synthesis, nitrogen retention, and muscle fiber growth.
   • Unlike some prohormones, 3-AD reportedly does not convert to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) or dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), which reduces the risk of estrogenic side effects (e.g., gynecomastia) or hair loss.
2. Testosterone Support:
   • 3-AD is claimed to enhance natural testosterone production by stimulating pathways in the testes and adrenal glands. This is distinct from synthetic anabolic steroids, which can suppress natural testosterone production.
   • Its androgenic potency is reported to be significant, with sources citing it as approximately 43.9% as potent as testosterone and about 80% as potent as methyltestosterone, based on microgram equivalents.
3. Muscle Protein Synthesis and Recovery:
   • By binding to androgen receptors, 3-AD enhances muscle protein synthesis, which supports muscle growth and repair. It also increases nitrogen retention, creating an anabolic environment conducive to lean muscle gains without water retention or bloating.
4. Unique Biosynthesis Pathway:
   • 3-AD is synthesized from dehydroandrosterone (DHA) and other steroid precursors, following a distinct pathway that avoids DHT or DHEA metabolism. This contributes to its reputation as a “clean” prohormone, minimizing unwanted hormonal side effects.
5. No Post-Cycle Therapy (PCT) Typically Required:
   • 3-AD works with the body’s natural hormone production rather than introducing external androgens, therefore the manufacture claims it does not typically require PCT. However, to be cautious, especially with prolonged or high-dose use a PCT is never a bad idea and will only further benefit you.

Potential Benefits of 3-AD

The benefits of 3-AD, particularly for bodybuilders and athletes, include:

1. Lean Muscle Growth:
   • 3-AD is designed to promote lean muscle mass without the water retention or bloating associated with some other prohormones or steroids. Users may experience increased muscle density and fullness.
2. Increased Strength:
   • By enhancing testosterone-like effects, 3-AD can improve muscle strength, making it appealing for those engaged in resistance training.
3. Enhanced Recovery:
   • The supplement may accelerate muscle recovery by supporting protein synthesis and reducing muscle breakdown, allowing for more intense and frequent workouts.
4. Improved Physical Performance:
   • Users may experience increased energy levels and enhanced physical performance, which can translate to better workout outcomes.
5. Fat Loss and Muscle Definition:
   • 3-AD is claimed to boost metabolism, supporting fat loss and a lean, defined physique. This makes it suitable for both bulking and cutting cycles when stacked with other compounds.
6. Versatility in Stacking:
   • 3-AD can be used standalone or stacked with other supplements (e.g., Chosen1, AbNORmal, or Brutal 4ce) to enhance muscle-building or fat-loss goals, depending on the user’s cycle.

Why You Might Consider Taking 3-AD

You might consider 3-AD if you are:

• A bodybuilder or athlete seeking lean muscle gains and improved strength without the side effects associated with synthetic anabolic steroids.
• Looking for a supplement that supports natural testosterone production rather than suppressing it.
• Aiming for a “clean” bulking or cutting cycle with minimal water retention or estrogenic side effects.
• An experienced supplement user (intermediate to advanced) who understands cycling protocols and wants to enhance their training regimen.

Each capsule is enhanced with BioPerine® (black pepper extract), clinically proven to increase nutrient absorption by up to 30–40%. This ensures faster uptake and improved bioavailability, so you get more out of every dose.

How to properly take 3-AD for optimal results

Standard Cycle: 100–150mg (2-3 capsules) daily for 6–8 weeks
Pulse Cycle Protocol:

• Workout Days: 150mg (3 capsules – 1 in the AM, 2 pre-workout)
• Non-Workout Days: 50mg (1 capsule in the AM)

Pulse cycling helps maintain long-term results while reducing unnecessary daily exposure.
