    Anavar vs. Turinabol

    Hey Guys,

    I have been doing a lot of research on anavar because i want to throw it in one of my future cycles. I am intrigued by results it tends to give as far as providing the user with a little bit of muscle gain and strength gain while cutting body fat. Damn that stuff is expensive though. I have seen quite a few discussions about the comparison of Turinabol and Anavar, saying that they provide similar results? What do you guys think? Has anyone on here used both orals or feel strongly about one or the other?

    Also, why is that stuff so expensive? Is it that good that it warrants the high price?

    Thanks for the input
    -J

    IMO Tbol is stronger than Var. They both have low side effects.

    If given the choice I would use Tbol over Anavar .

    Tbol is Dbol without the bloat, I think the gains go as fast as the come, I gain strength but not hardness. Anavar I gain a bit of strength, lots of hardness and i keep more of my gains. This is my experience with the 2

    No offense workhardgethuge, Tbol is no where close to Dbol .....Only reason I would prefer Tbol over Anavar is the cost. As far as a better compound, Anavar hands down. Im actually starting my Anavar tomorrow, 80mgs/daily....Costs roughly 2/3 of all my other compounds combined, lol....Its not my choice for every cycle

    No offense taken, simply my results with it, everyone responds differently, I will agree that var is expensive when compared to other aas

    Anavar is good stuff. Never tried Tbol but just added to my list of things to try.

    I've included Var in several cycles and always loved it. I'm currently doing 100 mg for 12 weeks (talk about an investment!!) along with Test P, Tren E and Masteron P. Good long cut to 6% hopefully!!

    Absolutely man! if im going to drop that much cash on that stuff id be 1000% even more hardcore with the diet, exercise, and rest i get just to make that investment worth while


    So what I am gathering from you guys is that the two orals don't have much in common at all?

    Tbol is associated with more strength and muscle gain but much is lost post cycle while anavar is less strength and muscle gain and provides the "hard" muscle look and most is kept post cycle? Both have low sides which is definitely a plus. At this point its looking like anavar is coming on top aside from it being CRAZY expensive but I am still open to more experiences or input or if you want to correct my thinking. keep them coming guys all the input is appreciated

    I've been interested in Tbol but if I'm bulking I like the classic Test/Deca (NPP)/Dbol kickstart and for cutting Test/Tren /Var/Masteron . I don't know where I'd want to put the Tbol. I guess on the bulk, but I like the Dbol for half the $$.

    People say Anavar is expensive but 8 weeks worth at 50mg a day is 'only' about £95. To me that is more than reasonable. The way people go on about it, you would think it was cut with GH.

    I think I am going to go the anavar route just because it seems to be much more popular and everyone who cycles it seems to love it. How long do you guys suppose I run it and at what dose? And of course I will run it with test when the time comes, no need to remind me.

    Thanks guys

    my next cycle is going to have some var in it. can't wait to try it. i have never run it but since it is an oral, personally I would not run it no longer than 6-8weeks at no less than 60 mg per day but everyone has their own preference. from what i have read, anavar is one of the few compounds that doesn't need test stacked with it but I would think that the test would only help keep the gains on your cycle.
    next cycle idea:
    week 1-4 dbol at 30mg per day
    week 1-12 test prop
    week 8-12 anavar 60mg per day

    by the way Jcole, was your stuff bunk?

    I prefer tbol. tbol made me harder and stronger. Only thing i didnt like about tbol was almost unberable lower back pumps where i couldnt run for more then 10 mins at a time and had to lay down sometimes in gym to rest. also alot of lethargy. Var is more annoying with the muscle cramping and sleepless nights and it doesnt work aswell for str. it is also more expensive and you have to run more of it and for longer

    Still not entirely sure... I think it was just underdosed because I am up 7 pounds in 8 weeks. However, some other member in my cycle log made a great point in saying that maybe I was expecting too much out of a test only cycle and that I was probably at the peak of what I could achieve naturally before cycling. Basically that means that if I started the cycle at 180 when my genetic peak was around 200, it would have been possible for me to throw on 20 pounds because there was a lot of room to grow. But starting at 200, maybe there just wasnt that much room to grow. Who knows, I am going to cycle again next summer with gear that I know is legit and I will be able to tell the difference if one was good and one was bad.

    Actually, they are almost identical in structure. Tbol just has a 4-chloro alteration which keeps it from converting to anything (like estrogen).
    Of course this changes its A:A ratio and a few other things, but it is certainly not an unfair analogy.

    I've used Tbol and Var in the same cycle and preferred Var. Tbol gives better fullness (like Dbol with an AI, minus the androgenic sides ), but not as much in the way of definition or vascularity as Var. Also, Var is great for injury repair, which is all I use it for anymore. It makes road rash and surgeries (I ride a motorcycle) heal up much faster than normal.

    Tbol actually lowers your blood's clotting ability (like a blood thinner), which can be dangerous if you hurt yourself. Just knicking yourself shaving turns into a 10 minute bleeding ordeal.

    If you want to try something similar to var as far as results go look into proviron much less expensive and easier on your liver than tbol

    I dont even think they are comparable. They both are very effective in their own right. Depends on what your wanting.

    I've never heard ANYONE say that Proviron works anything like Anavar .
    It is hardly even an anabolic .

    For me Var is cheaper than Tbol mg to mg. I probably wouldn't run 100 mg of Tbol for 12 weeks though...lol.

    I've heard Anavar was originally developed for burn victims and recovery from orthopedic surgery. I started my Var cycle early to see if it helped with a bi tendon and a rotator cuff that's been giving me problems. Last year Ronnie Rowland suggested I use it post disk replacement surgery and I think it really helped there.

    Sounding like var is just incredible all around...I do want to try both eventually, but var seems to be first in line

    what mg dosage per day would you guys recommend and for how long to make it worth it. I am right around 205lbs 12% body fat if that alters anything.

    Thanks

    Although similar, Var is far more comprehensive (does lots more for you).

    Have I done the math correctly...USD34 for 100 pills@10mg? Waw, hook me up with your source dude

    Oh BTW, I'm just kidding, no source or price discussions allowed in here.

    Maybe you dont hear much or should stop talking to anyone, whoever that is.... I didnt say Proviron and Anavar are EXACTLY the same I said similar results. Much like SOME people would compare winstrol to var because of its popularity in cutting cycles. Proviron would be a closer comparison than winny would be. Both are very lipolytic, easy on your HPTA, build lean muscle, keeps your muscles hard, and SOME users find they keep a good amount of their gains. Sounds SIMILAR to me.... and its less expensive, helps enhance the functionality of testosterone because it strongly binds to your AR so its fairly androgenic but more often compared to masteron .

    However if given the choice myself and just about everyone else would run var. OP was comparing tbol-var which to me sounded like he was looking for some other alternatives to var that would be similar and cost less.

    So do you guys feel anavar is ok to use for a first cycle? Is it ok to use by its self? Personally im not looking to gain much weight, just shed fat and get somewhat stronger. Im still reading up on what is best for someone who is active in mma to use. It seem great to use but is costly.

    Definitely not. Test should always be used as a base.

    anyone care to share their input on dosages and lengths of var cycling when thrown in a test cycle?

    For a first run, I'd go with maybe 50-70mg for 6-8 weeks (largely depending on the quality of the Var and what other AAS you're using).
