Following my bulking cycle scheduled to begin this March (12 weeks Test & Deca) I plan to do a Var only cycle to finish out the summer. I have big problems with sides from Test and I'm looking to downgrade to a milder med from here on out (need to use up last of bulking meds). The highest dose of Var I've ever been on was 50mg ED up to now. I plan to up it to 70mg ED for 8 weeks and was wondering what any other bros have experienced with similar cycles.
All thoughts welcome.
Heavy Hitter just finished his cycle, give him a shout.Quote:

Even though I love some of the other sides associated with Long-Acting Test compounds...feeling of well-being, sexual potency, etc..
I'm going to try a milder approach and derive what I can from it.
I hear shoot Enanthate EOD lessens the sides considerably.
I have ran 40mg ed for 6 weeks (VAR) and it worked great. I think 70mg is too much but that is just my opinion. I think it really depends on how your body reacts to it. If you can take 20mg ED and get a decent pump and stay hard through the night then 70mg is to much. At 40mg for me I had to stop working out short of 30 min at times because I couldn't move my muscle was so hard. I took BD products and at the same time 1500mg B12, 500 mg L-arginine, 500 mg Glutamine, Flax Seed Oil, and about 2 grams of Protein per LB of BW. If you decide to go to 70mg please keep us updated I am curious what it will do to you. Good Luck
it happens to some bro.....imo try a low dose prop cycle with diff ancills, like nolv/femara/lztroleQuote:

I ran Test Prop in my second cycle and, even though people say "Test is Test", I have to admit it did seem like the water retention issue wasn't as bad as with the long-acting esters. But, I had just as big a problem with hair loss. One thing I might try is a much smaller dose of Test Prop--maybe only 50 mg EOD and run it along side the Var. Maybe 500mg/wk is just more than my system wants to handle right now.
a low dose prop/var cycle a much better option than a var only cycle....Quote:
