Finaject was an injectable steroid of veterinary medicine which was
extremely popular in bodybuilding and powerlifting during the 1980's.
"Was"?, some of you will wonder. Well, we can easily ex-plain
this. All those of you who still do not know, do not believe, do not
want to realize the facts, or still let unscrupulous black market
dealers convince you to purchase Finaject, should pay attention to the
following statement: ORIGINAL FINAJECT HAS NOT BEEN MANUFACTURED IN NINE
YEARS! (Finaplix will be discussed at the end of this chapter.) Since
1987 neither Finaject nor Finajet has been manufactured in either France
or Great Britain, nor in any other country worldwide. Residual supplies
are available at this time; however, in all likelihood they are used up
or superposed (past their expiration dates). For this reason, trade with
faked Finaject is booming on the black market where the athlete can find
a 30 ml or 50 ml vial of dark-brown glass that usually comes with a red
cap. The label or sticker is in French and shows the compound as "Finaject
30." The manufacturer is apparently Distrivet s.a., 35 bd des
Invalides, 75007 Paris by "Groupe Roussel UCLAF" The
expiration date and manufacturing date are either missing or printed in
the same type as the rest of the label. In some cases the vial comes in
an additional package (see photo in chapter on Fakes.) The multicolored
imprint on the carton can be wiped off with your finger if you wet the
label and apply some pressure when rubbing. This would never be the case
on an original package. All fakes are lacking traces of the substance
"trenbolone acetate." So what does this compound contain? An
analysis made in September '93 showed a very small amount of
"testosterone enanthate." This finding, however, does not mean
much, since the next vial that is analyzed might contain something
completely different. The 50 ml oil solution costs $350 -400 on the
black market, which is a lot of money for a little "Testo." No
matter what, the best you can do is stay clear of compounds with the
imprint "Finaject." The same is obviously true for the En-glish
Finajet.
Although it does not make much sense to describe in detail a com-pound
and its characteristics when it is no longer available (yes, we will
talk about Finaplix) we would like to make an exception here. Some day
perhaps "Fina" will be produced again, although this seems
unlikely. Too many times in Europe it was illicitly abused in the
treatment of animals destined for food processing. This shows what a
high potential for abuse there is. Finaject is a very strong and
androgenic compound which also has a high anabolic effect. it gives its
users a fast and powerful strength gain without causing excessive gain
in body weight. The reason is that "Fina" does not cause a
water retention in the body. This was the reason why it was so popular
among power lifters who had to stay within a certain weight class. The
strength gain is comparable to the famous "mass steroids"
Dianabol, Anapolon 50, and Testosterone. What is special about Finaject
is the substance trenobolone acetate which plays an active role during
fatburning. It was a favorite among competing body-builders during
preparation for championships since it helped athletes whose fat content
was already relatively low to obtain a good muscle hardness and density.
When the nutrition was right, it was possible that one could obtain with
Finaject simultaneously both a high strength gain and a qualitatively
high muscle gain-, and the entire muscle system continued to get harder.
Since Finaject is the acetate form of trenbolone, its effect lasts only
a short time and frequent administration is necessary. Most athletes
inject I ml (30 mg) every second day. Higher dosages such as, for
example, 30 mg/day or 60 mg every two days, however, were not unusual
since an enormous strength gain and also a strong but still high-quality
muscle gain was obtained. Finaject does not aromatize since its
substance is not changed into estrogens. In combination with Winstrol it
has a dramatic effect on the body's appearance. To achieve a gigantic
strength gain bodybuilders used to combine 30 mg Finaject every 1-2 days
and 50 mg Winstrol Depot every 1-2 days (also known as Strombaject)
during preparation for a compe-tition and the buildup phase. No other
combination gives the athlete such an incredible hardness and such a
defined muscle gain. The possible physical change obtainable in only a
few weeks is enormous enough to shock some non-involved observers.
Believe us, competing bodybuilders love this combination especially.
Finaject was also part of probably the most effective stack for mass
buildup. Together with Dianabol or Anadrol 50, and testosterone, "Fina"
builds up strength and mass in record time. So much about the positive
aspects of Finaject which, unfortunately, are often spoiled by its
considerable negative side effects.
"Fina" is quite kidney-toxic and after a certain time of
intake, it may cause pain in the kidneys. The first sign of possible
kidney damage manifests itself in a very dark-colored urine. Some
athlete will probably still remember the day when he excreted blood in
his urine for the first time. It is important that Fina not be taken in
high dosages over a prolonged period of time. It must also be observed
that the amount of fluids is increased to at least one gallon/day so
that the kidneys are well flushed. Finaject has considerable
androgenic-caused side effects both in women and men. Athletes often
report head-aches, nasal bleeding, high blood pressure, oily skin with
acne, and in part an enormous increase in aggressiveness. The high blood
pres-sure is surprising since "Fina" does not cause water and
salt retention which are normally the main cause of this condition. The
skin can also considerably worsen which again manifests itself in a
higher production of the sebaceous gland resulting in severe acne and
larger pores. Especially negative is the characteristically high
aggressive-ness of athletes. "Fina" gets into your brain and
can cause consider-able mood swings in its users. One is extremely
irritable and can "act out" quite abruptly. Daniel Duchaine in
his Underground Steroid Handbook 2 hits the nail on the head:
"Someone on Finajet is no fun to be with." Women, in short
time, can experience most undesirable cosmetic changes which often are
irreversible. Despite this, many top female bodybuilders and
powerlifters have included "Fina" in their training program
for competitions. Finaject is no steroid for male/female leisure
bodybuilders and, if at all, should only be used by advanced and
ambitious competitive athletes. Sensible women refuse to take it.
Although "Fina" does not aromatize, its users often report
gynecomastia. We believe that the reason for this is that during the
late 1980's many athletes-and today all users-do not in-ject original
but faked "Fina." Since the fake usually turns out to be a
common testo this seems to explain the feminization symptoms. Original
"Fina" was often recognized by the pain it caused at the point
of injection even hours after the injection. Some athletes complained
about hot flashes, nausea, and, in the event of veterinary compounds,
"steroid fever." The original "Fina"-as mentioned
be-fore-has not been manufactured in years and many have been re-placed
by Parabolan which is made in France and comes from the field of human
medicine. Parabolan, as a substance, also contains trenbolone but
without the acetate form (see Parabolan).
As promised we conclude by discussing Finaplix which has be-come
increasingly popular in recent years. When we previously talked about
Finaject or Finajet, we referred exclusively to the injectable solution
dissolved in oil. Finaplix, however, is a little more difficult because
there is no place to insert a needle and draw a solution. Finaplix is a
veterinary drug which is not for injection but is to be "shot"
into your system. You have read correctly: animals are shot with
Finaplix using an implant pistol. Finaplix is only available in this one
form of administration, in the form of pellets which are small,
cylindrical implants similar to tablets. We hope but do not guarantee
that no one will hold such a pistol at his behind and pull the trigger.
Athletes who are afraid of injections apparently have even drunk the
content of ampules! We can only explicitly warn you not to do so. Back
to its form of administration: Two different sizes are available.
Finaplix-s stands for 70, Finaplix-h for 100 pellets which are en-closed
in a cartridge. These pellets are obviously not intended to be
swallowed. Their basic chemical structure is developed in such a way as
to break down very slowly; that is, the substance re-lease is delayed.
Once implanted, its substance is expected to work for a certain time in
a way similar to progesterone or estradiol patches for women. One-way of
administering the substance found in the pellets consists of first
grinding the pellets into powder by use of a mortar and pestle. Then the
powder is put into a container, adding 2 ml of distilled water or sesame
oil. (Two pellets should be enough, since one pellet contains 20 mg
trenbolone acetate.) Then combine powder and liquid and draw up the
solution using a syringe. At this point we want to emphasize once more
that this procedure has a great number of risks. The inject-able
solution was not created under sterile lab conditions and an injection
could cause infections and many other complications.
Another way of administration which is far less dangerous, can be
prepared as follows: the ground pellets are mixed with a mixture of 50%
water and 50% DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide). Then the mixture is put on the
skin and allowed to soak in. Dimethyl sulfoxide is used to transport the
substance trenbolone through the skin. Using this method approximately
40 mg of the substance can get into the blood without much harm. On the
black market a box of 100 pellets costs up to $300. So far we have not
seen any fakes.
