If you’re looking to supplement with prohormones during a bulking phase, you need to make sure you’re using the right products.
We previously wrote a review of two of our favourite bulking prohormones (read it here) and in this article, we’ll look at two more.
On this page you’ll also find links to our recommended UK prohormone supplier where you can buy the products featured.
A bulking phase is all about adding size. To add serious size you need to:
- Eat plenty of high quality protein, carbs and fats
- Train with maximum intensity
- Rest and recover like it’s your job
- Supplement intelligently
Using prohormones during a bulking phase could help you add quality size and strength.
Bulking Prohormones – Not for Beginners
If you’re new to prohormone supplementation, we recommend having a few successful cycles of gentler prohormones or SARMs before moving on to the products featured in this post.
If you’ve run 2-3 cycles of ‘beginner’ prohormones with no problems, then keep reading. Otherwise, check out our guide for newbies here. As always, when we write about prohormones, we’re talking supplements that can be bought and sold legally over the counter.
All of these prohormones are currently legal in the UK . If you want to know more, read this.
If you live in a country or state where prohormones and designer steroids are illegal, we can’t help you. Sorry.
This isn’t medical advice either. Don’t be an idiot and speak to a doctor if you need to.
Best Bulking Prohormones: Our Pick
1. Halodrol: The ‘Safe’ Superdrol
If you recognize Halodrol (also called H-drol, Halo etc) it also features in our post on beginner prohoromones. Halodrol is closely related to an old designer steroid called Turinabol which was reportedly developed by the Soviets to boost sports performance.
Halo is seen as a relatively ‘safe’ prohormone having no estrogenic effects. In terms of adding size, I saw some of my best results using Halodrol. The feature image for this post is a ‘before and after’ using Halodrol.
As with most bulking prohormones, you will retain water during your cycle. However this will disappear if you get your PCT and recovery period right.
If you start to feel like a giant water balloon, you could add a herbal diuretic like dandelion route or Aqua-ban (Ammonium chloride) which is used to treat menstrual bloat. I personally prefer the former. It’s cheaper too. Get it here (Amazon).
You can also buy Aqua-Ban on Amazon here.
2. Xtreme Mass: Strong Prohormone Stack
Xtreme Mass by Fusion supplements is a combination of two prohormones. The first is Methoxygonadiene (13-ethyl-3-methoxy-gona-2.5(10)-dien-17-one) which is a methylated prohormone with low androgenic activity which could reduce libido and give you moobs (gyno).
This is combined with a low dose (10mg) of Superdrol (2a, 17a-dimethyl-5a-androst-3-one-17b-oi 10mg). For more on Superdrol, read part 1.
Taking these two compounds will greatly increase muscle size and strength. Some lifters have reported adding 10kg during a cycle.
Xtreme Mass is a prohormone stack and contains two methylated products which means potentially high toxicity so your cycle support and PCT has to be on point including an aromatise inhibitor.
You shouldn’t stack prohormones for more than 6 weeks, even if you’re very experienced. If you start to get negative side effects such as breathlessness or abdominal stop immediately and see your doctor.
Summary: Bulking Prohormones for Big Results
The four supplements featured in this two-part series are for big league players. Although Halodrol is a relatively safe product, it still has some toxicity and should be respected.
Fusion Supplements Xtreme Mass is the big daddy of prohormones and is only for very advanced lifters and those with years of prohormone experience. However it will give you serious results if you want to add size quickly.
While these supplements are effective, they aren’t magic pills. Your diet and training need to be on point to maximise any gains.
As always, stay safe and have a great cycle.

Hi Jack, these are great articles – so well written and easy to understand; thank you for all your hard work.
About myself: I’m a “power-builder” who has been training seriously for over 3 1/2 years and though I’ve made some impressive gains thus far through natural means, I cannot get past the fact that – at the age of 45 – my body simply doesn’t produce the testosterone that it used to and recovery for me is much, much slooooower than it was back when I was into powerlifting in my late teens/early 20s.
Hence why I’m currently doing a lot of reading on prohormones and hence how, through a quick Google search, I came upon your site.
Once again, thank you for the work you’ve put into this. I’ve added this site to my favourites and will be sure to keep visiting it.
Kindest wishes,
GARY
Hi Gary, thanks for your comment and for reading. I’m glad the articles are useful for you. Keep checking back to the site, we’ve got some updates coming later in 2018.
