Anavar Sides....where are they?

[DPH5175]

Hi, just a quick question really. I'm just dipping my toe in the steroid pool to see how my body would react and started running an anavar only cycle. I'm using Noble anavar as they seemed to have good reviews online.

I am 3 weeks into a 7 week cycle.

I take 50 mgs at 05:15 before I work out between 06:00 and 07:30. I cycle to the gym which count as my 20 minute warm up and then spend 45 mins focusing on 2 muscle groups.

Monday - chest and triceps
Tuesday - back and biceps,
Wednesday - legs and shoulders.
Thursday - rest.
Friday - chest and triceps.
Saturday - back and biceps
Sunday - legs and shoulders.

I do abs and forearms as and when.

I drink a quick absorption protein shake with a scoop of glutamine before and after my weight session and the rest of my protein comes from lean meats and fish with nuts as a snacking substitute. Carbs are from brown rice, brown pasta, vegetables and fruit.

I'm eating roughly 3000 calories a day spread out over several small meals comprised of 80% protein and 20% carbs.

At 17:00 I take another 50mgs of anavar and head to the gym for 45 mins of high intensity interval training on either the elliptical trainer or the rowing machine.

I then drink a slow absorption shake with a scoop of glutamine before I get into bed. I'm getting a good 7 or 8 hours sleep each night.

I'm taking milk thistle with each dose of anavar and drink green tea throughout the day.

I am sticking rigidly to this cycle, the workouts and the diet.

I am blown away by the results which have far exceeded what I was expecting from an anavar only cycle. This stuff is nowhere near as mild as I was led to believe it would be. My strength is up and my muscle gain is awesome. I do have questions though:

1 - I haven't experienced any of the dreaded pumps at all. Does everyone get them or just some people.

2 - My bodyfat seems to be unchanged at around 15%. Is it possible that I'm losing fat but retaining water? If I am retaining water how quickly will I lose it after the cycle.

3 - Other than the possible water retention I have had absolutely no side effects at all. I sleep fine, my libido is fine, I've had no gyno and no hair loss. Does this mean I'm likely to respond well to another cycle later in the year which will be anavar and test?

Any info and advice will be greatly appreciated.

As good as noble labs may be, it could be faked since anavar is expensive.

Also, anavar doesn't burn fat but instead will give you a dryer look, similar to that of winstrol. You really won't get much from anavar... very mild and generally for women. If you want to lose fat you need to be in a caloric deficit to which I suspect is which you are not in with your current intake. You state you see increase in strength and muscle.. will happen when supplementing with AAS, however you will most likely lose a good percentage of it when you come off.

Also, drop the milk thistle and pick up NAC - it's better.

Final tip, most important: If you value your manhood and your ability to function properly with minimal risk (note i say minimal risk because some people have somehow recovered) then you need to use test as a base for all cycles, even anavar being mild will shut you down hard. So if you have any ED symptoms... you know what you did wrong.
Hair loss is generally caused by DHT based compounds (masteron, winstrol come into mind) but increase in androgenic activity will also aggravate it if you have a predisposition to male pattern baldness.

Also... 80% protein and 20% carbs split? What happened to the fat macro...
I've posted this in the kindest way possible, since you'll be flamed hardcore after me.

And while your at it, PCT plan would be fantastic.

Cheers.

Lol, 2600cals from protein that's 650g of protein per day. And no fats? Come on man post your diet in detail.

1 - Noble anavar is not anavar, like 95% european var. Its probably underdosed winny.
2 - Steroids dont shed fat. Diet and cardio do that.
3 - Oral cycles are useless.

Hi UHIT and Black, thanks for the responses. I'll look into swapping the milk thistle tomorrow. I have nolva for my pct and assumed that the 12% - 15% fat that comes with the lean protein was sufficient.

A more detailed diet breakdown is goven below. Some feedback would be great as I want to get it right for a proper cycle after later in the year.

1 - 05:30 - pre-workout: banana and shake.

2 - 07:30 - post-workout: shake + unsweetened oats.

3 - 08:45 - 5 Boiled eggs with two yolks only and some nuts and dried fruit.

4 - 11:00 - Protein bar + banana

5 - 13:00 - 200 - 250 grams of lean meat or fish with a portion of brown rice or past. The fish is either salmon or tuna and the meat either minced turkey, pork, beef or chicken breast.

6 - 16:00 - Shake with an couple of apples.

7 - 18:00 - The same as 5 above.

9 - 21:00 - Shake on its own.

Am I eating too much?

What kind of fats should I be eating and what are good sources.

I have a desk job so have a bag of dried fruit and nuts to nibble on if I'm peckish. I should maybe mention that since last August I had gone from 117kgs down to 82kg before starting this cycle. I lost the weight by working out as detailed above and stocking religiously to the paleo diet, but getting down to that 10% bf (which is my goal) just seems to elude me. It's been a killer getting here so the suggestion that I should now be eating fat seems odd to someone who struggled to cut it out of his diet for so long. If it's what I need though I'll work it in there.

Once again any advice or guidance will be greatly appreciated.

Educate yourself on macronutrient breakdown and calories as well as TDEE and such. All that info is in the nutrition section within these forums.

Steroids arn't the cure for you at the moment. Sorry

[Mr.BB]

Hopefully you have your own office, with that many shakes, processed food and NO vegetables or salads you probably have powerfull gas plant LOL

I'd get nutrition dailed in 100% before even bothering with the anavar, you'll be setting yourself up for failure if your'e diet isn't perfect imo..
