Concerns with Var 100mg e.d.

[Rickology]

I was wondering if there are any concerns with a var only cycle at 100mg e.d. ?
I've been told by various sources that it may affect sex drive, aggression or possible liver damage?

Any help or reference to any articles I can read more on would be greatly appropriated.

Thanks

Several.

1) Suppression, and no test base to substitute (I'm assuming you're a guy).
2) That's a high dose for Var. Even though it's easier on the liver than most orals, I think you'd be stupid not to run some cheap liver support with it like Liv52 and bulk NAC.

What are your goals?

destroy you HCL and make your testicles shrink to the size of raisins?? and all that comes from that??

cholesterol and the destruction of Healthy cholesterol is never a good thing to do..

but i do love using var..

24 years old
Male
180 lbs, ~12-15% bf
Training: Crossfit (recently included more isolation workouts)
Goal: My main goal is to reduce body fat while somewhat maintaining same body weight. I am not a body builder.

I started this past monday and been taking 2x50mg capsules e.d. 8-10 hours apart. I am also taking creatine monohydrate and ~2g of protein per 1 lb of body weight. Diet is pretty much strict to Paleo which includes but not limited to Lean Meats, Fruits, Vegetables, unsalted nuts & water.

I am planning on taking this for 6 weeks and then a PCT of climid or nolva for another 6 weeks. But I am definitely concerned with some of the sides and how I can mitigate them.

Thanks for all the feedback guys, all the information I can get at this point would def be helpful.

the back pumps will be too much for crossfit that's for sure... strength gains will be big... if the pumps are too much just lower the dose to 80 or 60 after 2-3 days you should be able to walk..

another side effects the pumps in the jaw can make it so painful you can't chew..

good times..

i've had that. That really sucks

Had the jaw pumps on 80-100mg Anavar and on a PH im using right now. You think its bad when you get it while eating? Try getting it when your down between your girls legs.. lol. Before steroids, I never knew it was possible to get a tounge pump and have it literally lockup.

Have you ever tried runing it in lower amounts. 60mg daily is my upper end.

[Rickology]

This is my 4th day and i'm not gonna lie, i'm getting massive back pumps lol, my upper, lower and center back are tight! Again my crossfit training is a little intense since we're preparing for competitions. I haven't gotten any jaw lock ups but thanks for the heads up! I'm going to continue this cycle and see how it goes.

p.s. 'm not going to take any tablets on Saturday/Sunday, is this accurate or should i continue to take the same dosage throughout the weekend?

[gixxerboy1]

take it everyday

[Rickology]

Thanks, this would be outstanding since i'm also training on saturdays and sundays,

Thanks

No, i started taking 100mg as recommended by a local resource after I explained my goal. My second cycle next year would probably include some winny possibly stacked with var at low dosage. Still trying to research that. This will all depend on where my diet and this cycle takes me.
