First Cycle- Anavar (var) only

[sugarshane]

First Cycle- Var only

I started my first cycle last thursday.

50mg Anavar (var) /day in the morning
Starting weight- 190 pounds(6'1)

Other supplements: 300 mg Alpha lipoic acid,
ZMA Fuel
Animal stack
Echinacea
Multivitamin
25-50mg ephedra

I will post progress every couple of days or weekly.
So far Ive just had a great increases in mental Drive.
Its only been 4 days, I cant wait for a few weeks to go buy.

Im on a strenght training routine with a buddy of mine who is a personal trainer as well as I am. He's been training like a beast for years now and is running Anavar (var) with me.

Here is an idea of what my routine right now is like.(my days are a little weird because of work)

Sunday- Legs/abs
Monday- chest
Tuesday-Back/light cardio
Wednesday-Bi's Tri's Shoulders/abs
Thursday-Rest/possibly some light cardio
Friday-Start over

Every thing is heavy weight 3-6 tough reps. Going for purely strength and hardness.

One question...Im taking my 50 mg capsule every morning around 8:00. Is that ok? Because I hear most people split there 50 mg into separate doses of morning and night.
I appreciate any feedback, comments, and/or advice. Thanks a Lot

Yea 1 a day will suffice!
But I would recomend for splits.........Jsut becasue oxandrolone has a 8 hour half life I do believe!

Just started my own 60mg/day Anavar (var) at 8 weeks!

Keep your water intake HIGH
and you lean protein high............. Anavar (var) is my all time fav oral!

I posted this in your other forum, but I can say I've never seen a 50mg Anavar (var) capsule (maybe others have, just thought I'd mention it). Like you said, they are capsules so you can't really split them unless you open them, divide the powder in half and put it water and drink it or something...

why did you decide to go with a Anavar (var) only as opposed to a test only first cycle?

Thanks a lot bro. My protein intake is at about 220grams per day, is this good enough?? All lean protein besides my red meat almost once a day. Will the ana Anavar (var) not reach its full potential with one dose of 50 mg every morning??(I'm not sure how I could split the capsule)

Because I wanted to stay away from a high androgenic. Im worried about extreme acne. I also didnt want to put on to much bulk too fast, im still only 21. I figured I'd run this Anavar (var) cycle for 8 weeks and gain some hardness and vascularity as well as strenghth, and then ill go from there. Ive heard of people running very low doses of test such as 300 mg every other week. Would this be enough to see any added bulk with the Anavar (var) and would it decrease the likelyhood of those negative androgenic sides??

The reason testosterone is adviced for a first cycle is because it has the least potential for side effects, in conservative dosages. I would do 300mg/wk and you would see very good gains, but this is a first cycle so stick to one compounds @ a time.

So my next cycle would you recomend maybe a Test/var run or just Test alone?

[VooDooMan]

No I recomend a dbol/test or a dbol/test/eq

After my first 8 weeker of anavar, I felt rela comfortable jumping on the injectable wagon.......I just never got around to it, I simply have more oxandrolone on hand to last me another 30 weeks, and its all for free!

LOL
test is great though!
watch for extreme gyno prone glands though!

 

[sugarshane]

I trained Back today. This is now my sixth day of the Anavar (var) and I had a pump(good pump) like you would not believe. Im kinda getting this feeling like my body is going through some sort of change but I feel thats its gonna come on strong in the next week or two.(hopefully)

by day 14 you should be fully immersed in the oxandrolone,
Keep the water intake high, tendons are going to fucking ache soon!

whats your cals per day with macros?
and watch your eight - let us know

My cals are around 2500/day and protein is at about 220/day. I am hoping to put on a little bit of mass even if its just 5 pounds of lean mass.
My diet is really clean. Usually a protein bar or shake before work early in the morning. My next meal two hours later is usually eggwhite omelets with asparagus and turkey(sometimes I go for the whole egg) and some toast. Then from there I eat every two hours, whether it be a shake or a meal. After My workouts I try to get about 50g of protein. I am eating lean red meats about once a day.

I am trying to lose body fat. Should I stay away from shakes with a lot of sugar?

 

[outlawtas]

Yeah, stay away from the sugary shakes, they are okay PWO though I guess. I'd up the protein to at least 250g though.

Im now two weeks in to my var cycle. I bumped my dosage up to 50mg every morning and 25 at night. I feel great, Im starting to see incredible definition and the vascularity is starting to become more pronounced. My body fat has gone down from 13.2(one month ago) to 11.3. This readings were done by the same person on the same calipers and both were 8 point readings. The decrease in body fat has a lot to do with the 50mg of ephedra that ive been taking for a month now but I really have just begun to notice this loss in body fat in the last week or so, I have to accredit some of that to the Var already.

My muscle mass looks a lot more quality now than it ever has, I feel harder especially during my workout when the blood is flowing. Im even starting to see some strenght increases. Today I repped out 225 on the bench for 5 solid reps with no help, 2 weeks ago I was struggling to get 2 without help. My all around strenght has definelty gone up in every workout, it seems as though I can bust out 4 or 5 more reps on everything with added weight that I havnt been able to get before.

Sorry If Im rambling, Basically 14 days in I have nothing but great things to say about Anavar. And what really has made me know that Im seeing results is the fact that Im getting compliments from everyother person in the gym on my size and shape, even people who see me everyday are noticing a difference.

Any more news on your progress?

 

[gogetter]

im about to start my Anavar (var) only cycle. what kind of post cycle therapy (pct) are you running?

I ran Anavar (var) for 8weeks and really regretted not at least using a Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) dose of test, I felt sooooo lathargic from having zero test in my body, I also think my gains really started to suffer as the Test left my body...DHT which Anavar (var) is a dirivative of is fantastic for CNS system recovery and muscle hardness but Test is the main hormone used to build bulk....at least add in a Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) dose of Test ( 150 mg EW ) otherwise you will hamper your gains.

 

[sugarshane]

I havnt been on here in a while Sorry I didnt keep it updated guys. Well needless to say I finished my cycle. I liked the anavar but as lucky said you feel like shit not having any test in your body. I leaned out a ton but I actually lost some muscle mass due to the lack of test. So of course now Im on to bigger and better things. I'm 8 weeks in to a Test E cycle at 400 mg/week. I went up from 184-200 lbs in the first 5 weeks and now Ive tapered off and have stayed at the same weight. Bottom line is...I will never do any cycle without test again.

P.S. Im thinking about adding some tren, would it be worthless to do this deep into a cycle?

not sue if those dates add up...did you run a post cycle therapy (pct) after your last cycle or take a break ?

No PCT...I thought I could get by without it. I wish I had because I felt shut down big time after. I took a break for a month or two. I have HCG for this cycle...I dont want to go through that again
