Looking for advice, please!

[marco13]

Hello,

I am looking at doing an 8 week cycle of Anavar (20-30 mgs per day). I am interested in burning some fat and obtain some strength gains. I would appreciate some input on this steroid with relation to my needs based upon the following:

AGE: 47
DIET: Pretty good. Low carbs, high protein. Lots of whole foods.
TRAINING EXPERIENCE: Weightlifter most of my life. Now into bodyweight work (tons of pull ups, push ups, core training, plyometrics), dumbells, cardio, swimming, etc.
CYCLE EXPERIENCE: Did a Winni V cycle in my 20s with great results.
PCT KNOWLEDGE: Negligible.

Is this a good choice? Would I require some sort of PCT with this drug/dosage? Please advise...

Thanks!

I would bump up dose to 50-60. I ran Anavar alone for 6 wks @ 50mgs/day. Mad (sometimes painful, but loved it) pumps and decent strength gains. Body fat seemed to go down. Gyms in the gym said I was getting bigger, but I didn't notice. I think that was from cutting up and loosing some BF.

I ran Nolva for 4 wks after for PCT.

I think most folks will suggest you use at least 50mg /day at a minimum

What do you mean "sometimes painful?"

Should one pyramid Anavar? Start at a lower dosage then go up then taper down? Also, is PCT necessary?

muscles get SO TIGHT its like.. a cross between a pump and a cramp

var is great for an oral only cycle assuming ur not stingy w/ $$$
i suggest 60mg ED, though its still individual based.
definetly get a serm and AI for your pct.. i suggest tamoxifine or tormifine as your serm and aromasin as your AI..

Tai, explained it as well as I could. It wasn't really painful, just a very hard tight pump.

If Anavar doesn't aromatize, why would I need aromasin?

[marco13]

Also, when I came off the winni 8 weeks) I did no PCT and kept most of my gains. I was told that with a low dosage of var I wouldn't need any PCT either. What would happen if I did without?

for pct..

[magic32]

Minimum 40mgs
Good 60mgs
Great 80mgs
Overdoing it 100mgs (no difference from 80mgs)

Some people exp. gastro and libido trouble with Var. Never bothered me.

[marco13]

SO all in all, if I do 40-60 mgs per day, I should see some good strength gains and lose some fat? Is the PCT absolutely necessary at this dose?

it would be idiotic to neglect pct..

[marco13]
