post first show, natty, looking to start a cycle

[torretornado]

I'm a natty figure Competitor. Wanted my first show under my belt Before I did anything. I've lifted for 8 years barring my 3 pregnancies and post partum for short time due to complications And Being higher risk. I did my first show 2 weeks ago and took second place in open and novice, qualified for nationals. Looking to start a very minimal cycle of Var for some help with growth, then use it again for cutting next year for my National sHow. I'm probably about 13- 15% body fat. I'm 114.4, thought I'd gained more but my monthly cycle was playing tricks on me. I don't bulk easily. I bulked at 2800 cals last season. 5'2" and 110 lbs at the time. Only gained 7 lbs and lost 4 in a 12 week prep. Anyway. Trying to paint a picture and I'm rambling. Lol. When is the best time to start my cycle. I'm considering starting on 2.5 mg - 5 mg, running 6- 8 weeks. I have enough to run a 12 week cycle at 10 mg, so more than enough To split it up a bit And start less aggressively. When is the best time to start? I assume now, while I'm leanish?

My wife's has competed many times, 17 to be exact, 3 times at National level and once at World Championships...she stays pretty natural at around 5mg of Anavar and 2.5mg of winny, i think your first run should be 5mg per day and see how it goes...start while still in the post show rebound for 6-8 weeks see what you can get out of it...ohh and my wife had hard pregnancy with child 3, finished 4th at the World Championships 1 year to the day after birth of our daughter...good luck...

Wow. Just wow.

Wow that's amazing. Having our 3rd, I literally almost died and then nursing her threw my autoimmune issues into crazy town. I had to cold turkey stop nursing when she was 7 months. I lost all my weight by 12 weeks post partum but lost a lot of muscle trying to reverse my autoimmune crap. She was about 16 months old when I went back to the gym, I bulked for 6 months, prepped for 3 months, finally walked that stage and took 2nd in my categories with a national qual. Proudest moment of my life other than the obviously family and college moments.

Your wife sounds like a force. Good for her.

I'm waiting for my test for the Var to make sure it's authentic then I'm starting it.

Good for you, you sound like a warrior yourself...keep us posted on your progress...

My wife developed a blood clot 6 weeks before due date, she was put on injections of blood thinner (warfarin) to control it, imagine going to walmart in August with her wearing tank tops while she is followed by me and 2 kids in hand, yes people were looking at me like a wife abuser, but whatever...then they induced her and just now we find out they way they went about it was totally incorrect and she could have died...to top that off her placenta didnt come out right and she was bleeding and because she is o+ she donates all the time yet the hospital did not have blood for her...it was pretty sketchy to say the least...but we all made it at the end of the day so its a happy ending story :-)
