Question about Anavar...

**boxingfan30** · 11-23-2012, 08:17 PM

I'm planning on doing some r&r from injuries with some very light workouts and all i've read about var says it's very good at helping to preserve muscle and helps manage fat with a decent diet of course. I'm only planning to start out at 20 mg's... I know I know 20 isn't enough. However, i'm not a big guy, i'm not planning on staying on it for to long, and i'm not going to run any test because frankly, I can't afford it, and I don't want to get into all of that. If it helps to give me a strength increase and helps with fat a little, that's all i'm looking for.

My question is this... what brands of var are considered better?, or are all of them considered equal? A bit of input?

No price talk and 20 mg of var will not do anything... And test is cheaper then var and probably a better bet... IF EVERYTHING else is in check. Physical therapy and diet can do wonders... Have you tried that?

Yeah, you need to edit your post.

20mgs is pointless to run for a male.

My girlfriend runs 20 mg of Anavar ed.

No cycle should be run without a base of test in my opinion and as for brands just do research for what available in your area. But 20mgs a day is absolutely pointless specially with no test. Just run prop EOD

I've done physical therapy, used a chiropractor, had multiple x-rays, MRI's, etc etc... I had to lose 50 lbs years ago so yeah, i'm pretty familiar with diet.

why will 20 mg's do nothing? As far as i've read. During an 8 week study it actually showed very promising effects. Understand also i'm not trying to get huge or anything of the sort. Some strength increase, cutting some bodyfat while eating a proper diet is basically what i'm looking for. I don't want to do test and all of the other stuff that goes along with that. I'm also looking for something that won't suppress to much and won't cause liver issues. As far as i've seen 20 mg's a day won't do that.

Look at it this way, 20mgs of anavar is like cutting a aspirin in quarters, yes you have it in your system but 25% of an aspirin is not going to be effective. You need the full dose to have anything work properly. Anavar is very expensive, there are other things out there that are close but less expensive.

Ok, well i'm open to suggestions. I wanted to try the Anavar because it does produce collagen synthesis that might help with some of my pain... I know it won't heal me, but it might calm it down a bit. The test suppression is what I don't want though. Shooting test and taking var isn't what I really wanted to do. Does something out there NOT suppress test so much?

Although Var is considered a mild steroid , a testosterone base should always be included to replace your own test production. The degree of suppression will vary form one person to another, so including a testosterone base and hCG on cycle is wise.

So if the consensus is that 20 mg ed is a waste, then what would the recommended dose dose be for somebody who is running it for the first time along with test e 500mg wk???? It looked like a good opportunity to bring this up since that is exactly what my summer cycle is going to be.

I had also considered Primo, as it seems to be the most safe out of all of the orals i've looked into. It's a bit expensive and you have to take a lot to get a decent effect from what I recall. The thing is my test isn't really low... it's 633 my last blood test, which was about a month or 2 ago I guess it's been, so i'm not in need of test as far as it being low or anything. As I said, my main goals are to do just bodyweight exercises, and have something that does promote collagen which var does do, but I can get a strength increase with.

So you all are saying 20 mg's will do absolutely nothing at all? or what sort of effect might I see? Let's say I chose to go with 40 mg's?
