Kevin Levrone, a professional bodybuilder like Dorian Yates, has opened up about their steroid dosages and cycles.
Muscular Development interviewed Kevin Levrone about his first and second cycles of steroid use. He provided details that give us a great look into the dosages and compounds he used to build up his body.
Levrone only went through a few cycles before he reached the Olympia stage.
It is amazing to think that Kevin, after only a few years of steroid abuse, was already on stage with Dorian Yates at the 1992 Mr. Olympia.
The Kevin Levrone story is one the most remarkable examples of elite genetic response of steroids in history.
Kevin Levrone’s First Steroid Cycle
Kevin Levrone began his first steroid regimen at the age of 24, six weeks after his first competition, which was the 1990 NPC Maryland State Championship.
Kevin’s first steroid cycle consisted of:
That allowed me to lose fat while simultaneously gaining 198 lbs and 206 lbs in six weeks.
We can only get a glimpse at his physique after the first cycle because there are not enough photos. However, we can get an idea of the type of muscle he displayed at that first show.
A rise in fat-free mass does not necessarily indicate that your body is made up of only contractile tissue when it comes to testosterone use.
This is often overlooked, and it is clearly exaggerated by the clinical data on the graded dose response of testosterone in healthy young men.
We need to speculate on Kevin’s weight gain during the first cycle of pure muscle.
Based on his 8-pound gain and the drop in body fat at the same time, as well as Kevin’s first show body composition, it is possible to conclude that he gained approximately 10 pounds of muscle over that six week period.
Kevin Levrone’s second steroid cycle
Kevin was able to enjoy a healthy off-season after he won the 1990 NPC Maryland State Championship.
Kevin’s second cycle of steroid is more representative of his genetic response to steroids. His first cycle lasted six weeks and he didn’t have the same leniency regarding his calorie allotment.
Kevin’s second steroid-cycle was made up of:
For his second cycle, that is 1700 mg per AAS per Week.
Kevin says he has never had any side effects from his second cycle of aggressive training.
Kevin gained 30 pounds of fat-free muscle during this second cycle, which he did between 1990 and 1991.
Kevin Levrone’s Contest Prep Cycle
Kevin would use androgenic hardening drugs for contest preparation and then let the more water-retensive drugs out of his system.
Kevin began contest prep by adding four amps Winstrol per Week to his intake. This was split into two weekly administrations (2 amps each week).
Winstrol V was available in 50-milligram ampules. His weekly Winstrol dose was 200 milligrams.
Kevin stopped taking Testosterone, Nandrolone, and Anadrol after four weeks.
Two weeks later, Kevin had added 20 mg per day of Halotestin tabs to his daily intake. He would then only go into shows on Winstrol or Halo.
Kevin’s stage weight increased between 1990 and 1991 from 206 to 236 lbs.
A 10-pound weight gain per year would be considered a very successful off-season.
Kevin put on 30 pounds during his first off-season and was second to Dorian Yates on the Olympia stage within two years of his first steroid cycle.
