In the last throes of my cut would anavar really benefit me at this stage

Anything else i can use orally or otherwise to bring out my physique a bit more in the last few weeks. Not trying to be stage ready just hoping to get to 11%bf or so.

I was 253 in my before pic and 223 in the new pic. the new pic is about 2 weeks old and i haven't weighed myself in a bit. Shout out to 3J for helping me through this not so painful journeyView attachment 562350
 
This may sound like a weird question - but why are you ending your cut - if you aren't at a bodyweight you are happy with yet?

You've put some extremely solid work in there to shed a lot of bodyfat - why stop now when the job isn't finished?

Whether you throw an oral in or do an ECA stack now is by the by - get the job finished.

And that involves nailing that diet even harder than you have and seeing this through.

Good Job!
 
It was never my desire to get 7-8%bf. The end goal has always been 10-12% bf. Sure If I could snap my fingers and magically be that ripped I would be cool with that but seeing how I have no desire to go on stage I don't see the benefit in going that low

So why are you asking about Anavar then?

I'd stick with exactly what you are doing (because it is obviously working) until you are happy - then shift to maintenance.

Sure 'Var and ECA will give you results - but unless you have a show or a shoot at the end of this, then I wouldn't put your body through it.

Just my thoughts

I thought anavar would benefit me despite not trying to get into the single digit bf%. I can gather from your line of questioning it would be a waste of money, correct?

Thanks for the insight. So given my current condition and my desire to get a bit lower you don't see me benefiting from any additional compounds?? (currently on 400mg of cyp a week and t3 .75mcg)
 
Var won't do anything appreciable to help you 'cut' at this stage

Fewer cals, more cardio and more time...those are all (mostly) free and all you'll need (:

SP how about i give you a few lbs of fat? Looks like you could use it around your midsection and quads, wouldn't want you getting too ripped
 
I tend to have a rule of thumb with cutting OP....

If you're running a show or cutting for a photo shoot - then I go the extra mile, take a few extra risks and smash a few orals.

If I'm just cutting to get in better shape and lower general body fat - then I go as hard as I can with diet and cardio, change my weights up a bit so that I'm doing more volume and higher intensity - and that'll do.

You've made great results so far - be happy with where you're at - and finish as planned bro :)

I've still got to lose some off the back of my legs brother :)

You've made great progress though - keep it up, just don't 'give me' any of it lol!

Thanks. 3J's diet wasn't nearly as brutal as i thought it was going to be but then again i did take a few liberties. based on my pic how many more weeks would you say i have to go? bare in mind i took the last 2 off but i still look the same.

Only you can answer that Dirk. If you're not stepping on stage - then it's just a case of getting to the stage where you can look at yourself in the mirror and say "Job done, I'm happy with that"

Then (and quite honestly this is the hard bit) - you need to move on to a maintenance diet to ensure all that junk doesn't go back on again!
