ANAVAR ONLY 5 weeks so far...GREAT RESULTS
Hey guys,
I have been on Anavar 5 weeks so far, 60mg a day, I have gained 8lbs and super toned and rock hard as if I have been working out all day. My question I have is, do I need to take anything for it decreasing my test? I will be doing blood work this week to check my test levels...is there anything else I need to do? I will be taking the var for 12 weeks. I also take Milk Thistle, Multi-Vitamins and eat 3500 calories a day w/200g protein a day.
Ps. I have seen some amazing strength gains!
I am 28, been working out 3 years, never been on anything, I will NOT take TEST any lose my hair.

OP, your story may seem fantastic to the untrained eye but I would like to point out to a few facts...
When you say ''I am not even halfway in the cycle yet'', do not make the mistake of assuming that your strength and muscle gains will continue to gradually improve as they have in the first 5 weeks of your Anavar only cycle. You are a new member, which brings about the possibility that you have not been tracking the majority of posts concerning the duration of oral AAS in terms of muscle and strength gains. To make the long conversation short, you have possibly already peaked on your Anavar only cycle in terms of both strength and muscle gains, you will be basically keeping your gains throughout the rest of your 12 week cycle as opposed to maintaining a continuum of this process.
I have some news for you, however. Running an Anavar only cycle for 12 weeks is not such a great idea when you look into it, and looking into it requires rather extensive knowledge of AAS. The longer you run your Anavar only cycle without the Test being the base for it, your HTPA will be suppressed further, leading to lower amounts of natural testosterone eventually. Consequentially, it will be a challenge for you to keep your gains by the end of this cycle with lower amounts of natural testosterone, especially if you do not implement some sort of PCT protocol.
On a another note, if your daily caloric intake is 3500 a day and your consumption of daily protein is 200gr, then you must be getting too many calories from carbs and/or fats. I am glad to hear that Anavar only cycle has worked for you so far but don't you think you would have gained even more LBM with an higher daily protein intake? (rhetorical question, do not answer).
Now, I am all over your thread simply because bunch of inexperienced members have already gotten excited over the idea of running an Anavar only cycle, not to mention a 12 week oral only cycle is about as bad as a cycle can get and also that you have made a personal proud note that ''you will NOT take TEST and loose your hair.'' How would you know that Test will make you loose your hair if you have never taken it? How many users do you think actually suffer from significant loss of hair only because they take Test? How come there are professional bodybuilders with a background of 15-20 years of chemically enhanced training under their belts and these juice monsters have more hair than many men who have never touched Test?

I run Test and typically test only... I have stacked it and used every imaginable kind... Even Undecylentate (SP) which is not approved in the U.S.... I have never lost any hair and I have no concern that I ever will unless perhaps I start running 2000 mg/week which I won't... And I'm not even saying I would lose it then I'm just saying that abusing anything will result in sides... And I have never and will never run a all oral cycle... And if I did and it was for 8 pounds I would I would probably be pretty disappointed... Run Test as a base or don't waste your time... You will find a whole lot more people that will tell you that Test>All other AAS... Can't imagine where you got the idea that what is considered the safest AAS to use is going to make you instantly lose your hair!

Glad to hear your gains are going good. To answer your q about test levels, yes there is something you can do.
Testosterone descreases as your HPTA senses AAS. Then happens slowly so most AAS user's limit cycles to 7-8 weeks and also this is when most gains peak as TJ already mentioned.
I would recommend you stop your cycle at 7 weeks and save the rest of your expensive investment for another cycle down the road. This would give you a two-fold benefit. One, you won't be shutdown very much (Anavar is mild on the system for short-duration cycles) and your PCT will be a breeze. (Nolvadex at 20mg per day for a few weeks)
Secondly, you will save money and have almost another full cycle for the future. Maybe next beach season.
And I would recommend you cut your carbs these last two weeks. Increase protein intake to 300 grams and you will like the results.

If your that committed to not losing hair, i understand, i loved my hair, used to highlight it etc...so i respect that. Its gone now, and shaved works for me, but maybe you dont have a great head shape. Anyway, i'd personally run a hormone repla***ent dose of test, 100-150mgs a week for the cycle, just to have NORMAL levels of test throughout so that your dick works. This will also add some minor anabolic effects.

I have hairloss issues, I am on Propecia and have been for the last 4-5 years, I have asked questions regarding TEST on the board already and it was recommended that I should not take TEST, ANAVAR only is an alternative but with minimal gains. I am okay with 8lbs, I am not looking to become a body builder nor have an immediate rush in getting huge. But if I were to try it, can I implement it in my cycle right now just curious?

I have hairloss issues, I am on propecia for 4-5 years, I have read alot of threads with many members stating to stay away from test if hairloss is an issue as it can increase it which I do not want. Like you said, everyone is different but with test I do not want to take the full risk of taking it because if I was I would be on it 500mg a week from the start. I may do it as you mentioned above it may help with lower test levels in small amounts.

bookie, honestly i'd get the hell off propecia. It ruins your sex drive. so even if you think ur drive is good, it's not as good as it should be. It will take away that "evil, dirty, adolescent" sexuality that every male should be seething. I've felt the difference. its the same thing with aromatase inhibition, it makes you less sexual and not as sensitive down there. Alot of testosterones sexual and anabolic effects are done through dht and e. id rather have a shaved head and my sexuality. if you want to chemically castrate yourself and think its a benefit to be as "happy" as a nutured dog, or like being less sensitive down there so you can last longer for HER...that's your problem. But i think you owe it to yourself to be the sexual being you deserve to be, and enjoy sex ON YOUR END FIRST and worry about the women second. Im not being presumptuous. Ive seen guys justify propecias use with these such reasons "Oh well being that horny is inconvienent anyway" or "hey....at least i can last longer(cuz im less sensitive)" Also propecia has permanently made screwed some guys up and there is a whole boared dedicated to it with hormone nerds like us trying to figure out why propcia did this to them and how to fix it. Its actually a good board to go onto to learn some cool stuff that these guys dug up on neurosteroids and dht affects. Propecia made me damn near impotent and did so for four months after i quite. Scary. My sexuality came back but im lucky and was not on it for years, just 6 mos. I understand your dedication to your overal sexiness, im a stripper. Its hard to decide wheter to get huge and ripped and not have hair, or to treadd carefully and not use high doses and avoid dht derived drugs at all costs. Its hard to decide. There is a new procedure for hair restoration that looks like it might actually work where they go follicule by follical, yet do it rather quickly. I was watching a video of it a few weeks ago. I will probably attempt it one day. Look up neo graft

Propecia only has sides for some dudes. Ive been on 2.5mg a day and no sides at all. Some hair regrowth coming in.

OP; good to hear you will stop your Anavar only cycle at week 8 considering the rationales behind it as stated above.
You can run Nolvadex only for 4-6 weeks at 20mg ED as it should be sufficient for this oral only novice cycle dosed at only 60mg ED.
As for a future cycle where you may again employ Anavar since it has treated you so well, you can pin yourself with 150-250mg of Test E every 5 days (biological half life of this compound is 4-6 days) throughout the cycle and this will not only allow you to run a longer cycle but also have Test as the base of your cycle. I don't think that you will suffer from a significant case of hair loss at rather low doses and similarly low intake frequency of Test, but if you are genetically inclined to hair loss and are already loosing it then yes, Test will only accelerate this process.
As for your diet, you will have to learn how to eat and love eating protein if you are going to run cycles in the future as there is no way around it. Even if your body responds very well to both carbs and fats, you need to drastically increase your protein intake for building of further lean muscle tissue as well as forming and maintaining that hard look and feel. If you are having trouble with eating only 200gr of protein a day, then I suggest you introduce shakes to your diet, at least when you are cycling. You can easily increment your daily protein intake 100gr by eating more egg whites and drinking 2-3 shakes throughout the day per se.

Test will not necessarily make him lose hair... there are things out there like finasteride. Also i have a family member who did anavar only and made great gains, he was suppressed badly and required constant use of tribulus + d aspartic acid daily to help him jump back normal, which took around 3 months + From anavar his dick started getting limp so harder to get erections.
Test should be used as a base for every cycle. P.S my family member had no PCT nothing thats why.

all steroids shut you down, some harder than others. Var is probably the lightest but you still will need a PCT.

This is for the origin poster. I too was very very nervous about doing test due to the potential hair loss but I but the bullet and gave it a go. Glad I did as I didn't lose any hair. the only precaution I took was nizirol shampoo.
My very first cycle was a 7 week test suspension cycle which was really painful, not to mention the hassle of two injections a day but I did it so if hairloss would occur it would be out of my system quickly. Now I don't advise test suspension as it was just too Dam painful but you could go with test p and you might be pleasantly surprised.

what is test suspension? I already use nizoral shampoo twice a week, finasteride 1mg a day, zinc and fish oil. All for hairloss issues, rogaine however doesn't work at all and I read somewhere that minoxodil 20% is an anabolic ? I am not sure if that is true though.

You also might want to check your cholesterol level after the cycle. I did a low dose Anavar cycle for 2 months and it almost doubled my cholesterol level.

The guys are true. You can't take anything except Anavar . That's the only steroid that won't raise androgenic activity in your body above the normal level. Deca + Propecia would most probably end up disastrously. With minoxidil, you could have more choices, but once your hair is dependent on Propecia, it would be very risky to switch to minoxidil.

Mr Testomaniac, I think that this guy is clever enough to understand that Propecia doesn't have to save him at testosterone dosages that are 2-3 times higher than his normal testosterone level.

Don't bother with him, he shows up on this forum all once in a while and makes similar comments against the use of testosterone , his line of thought and quality of rhetoric is as good as your average steroid forum troll, if that.
Calling me brainless for suggesting that Test should be the base of every cycle for various reasons; whereas, his assumption is Testosterone alternatives (Deca , Primo, Anavar etc.) could and should be used alone, without realizing the oxymoron here: they are all modified versions of Testosterone and hence have both similar effects & side effects when used either alone or stacked with Test.
Congrats, we have a local genius!Last edited by Turkish Juicer; 05-30-2012 at 01:08 AM.

Yes, I know. Guys using steroids are usually not much brainy. I see it everywhere on forums. Thank you for this example.

Bro - I only speak from my experience - I took two cycles of ANavar nobly before I ever tried test - and they both worked great for me - especially with strength. And I kept 80% of my gains after stopping...Listen to your body,...thats all.

And what did you expect? Anavar stimulates gains of pure muscle, not water weight. It will make you lean and more muscular, but not huge.
Anavar belongs to the best steroids that have ever been developed. His androgenic activity is really riduculous and anabolic strength is reasonably good. Ruined cholesterol is the only side effect that is worthy of note.
