How do I cycle Anavar?

[Lahlyi]

OK. So I have been lifting 4-5x/week and doing consistent cardio for 4 years now. I have created a great foundation and have been competing in figure for 1 year now. I just took 2nd at my last show and I have 12 weeks until my next.

I want to use Anavar, but need some advice on how to cycle it.

Can I do a 12 week cycle or is that too long?

How much time is best to lay off the shit in between cycles?

Should I stop taking birth control? I take yasmin and have not experienced much weight gain from it over the years.

How many mg of Anavar should I take? I am 5'2 and weigh 118 lb.

Im asuming your a female even though your Avatar says your a male.

Most orals should only be taken for 8 weeks max. I prefer to run orals for 4 to 6 weeks.

I would PM missmuscle. she seems to have a lot of experence and can do a better job in helping you. good luck!

Welcome. You can cycle anavar 12 weeks but since you are new just do a 6 to 8 week cycle.

Start at 2.5 or 5 mg....no more. You can take half at morning and half at night or just take the whole once per day. I recommend half if possible.

You should leave the same amount of time in between cycles as the cycle itself. I recommend the same time as the cycle plus a couple of weeks.

Don't bother going off birth control yet. Anavar won't affect it nor will it affect the var. Do you contest diet with the birth control? Some ladies go off it due to high estrogen but most don't need to. If you lean down fine with it than stick with it.

First cycle....start at a low dose and watch your body carefully for unwanted side effects. You can always up the dose if need be but once you have certain side effects occur they are permanent and you can not go back.

WOW! one post and out. no thanks, no extra questions. good info MM, I thought 8 weeks was it for orals. I would be concerned of liver damage with a 12 week. Do you think 12 weeks for men and women or 12 weeks because she is only running Anavar (var) and nothing else?

12 weeks is okay because a ladies dose of Anavar (var) is small usually.

However I think 6 to 8 weeks for a newbie is plenty.

You do bring up a good point though Hogman...liver damage. I think with any steroid...not just oral a liver supplement should be taken...something like Liv 52.

Your advice about orals was good though. Most oral compounds are taken for a shorter amount of time. Ana Anavar (var) isn't nearly one of the worst compounds for the liver anyways. It's not usually a big concern...especially at small doses.

Thanks for participating in our section...we always welcome boy....I mean men.

Hi ladies!

This may be of some help to you. I started my very first cycle 3 days ago with anavar- have been lifting for 6 years and have hit that point where I want to look as best as I can.

Day 1 I took 5mg split into 2 doses 8 hours between. I got headaches also a very sleepless night and the headache still, and some very wierd dreams!
I decided to drop to 2.5mg the day after and same today, I did feel a bit on edge yesterday and odd but I was extremely tired- today I've been fine. I'm keeping at 2.5mg for a few more days then I will go bak to 5mg.

I'm taking liv52, milk thistle, taurine, flaxseed,potassium and cla.

Taurine in case of cramps, liv supps obviously and potassium for blood pressure..

 

[frenchy121]

Oh and I'm running for 8 weeks and going to taper down on week 9 so no pct...

 

[sheflexed]

Thx French..let me know mentally how u feel after?

 

[essays]

Drink a ton of water.

 

[frenchy121]

Yeah I'll keep you posted no worries at all. Got a little lower back ache with it as well...

I'm drinking shit loads of water! Also following a cutting diet, cardio also as var works well with it so I'm told

The lower back ache is common on oral steroids but not fully understood.

Strange. Is it anything to worry about?
Also when is there a best time to take Anavar (var)? I take mine after training because I train early I don't eat before and I always take it with food. Surely whenever u take it doesn't matter as its in your system?

Fasted training doesn't actually burn more fat than fed training. Anavar has a 9 hour half life. I'd take it about 2 hours pre-workout, but it's not going to matter toooooo much...

 

[frenchy121]

I train at 6am in the week so there's no way I'm getting up at 4 just for that

Weekends I train at 9am and there is no way I'm setting my alarm for 7 as I want a lie in!

Fasted training is very controversial, it's said that it causes your muscles to shrink, (so a bad idea if tyour trying to build muscle)
on the other hand fasted cardio is so popular because when u do fasted cardio you release certain hormones that are good for burning the "stubborn fat"

who knows ?

I've done fasted cardio, but, never fasted training, I think I wouldn't have the energy/strengnth I need to do my workout.

 

[frenchy121]

Never eat before cardio! Get a bloody stitch actually I do have a protein shake before weights an I'm fine but I'm not usually hungry at 5.30am.... Imagine scrambling eggs at 5.30am??i don't think so!

 

[frenchy121]

I'm fine at 6am as I go to bed early and get 9 hours sleep. I hate gym after work as its to busy an I just want to eat and chill at home- I'm a morning person! 4am is mental, gyms open at 4am? U must be in the USA? 6am they open in the UK

So you're taking 20mg per day? Are you a man or a woman? If you're a man, don't expect much of anavar until you're taking 50mg+ per day.

To be honest, at your weight, I wouldn't touch the stuff. Build yourself up naturally.
