Calories on Anavar Cycle - female 28yo

Hi there,

I'm an experienced female trainer and Previously a natural competitor about to start my first Anavar cycle. Im 28 years old. I won't be commencing for another 3 weeks so just doing some forward panning.

My main question is regarding diet... Stats below:

Weight: 75kg
Height: 178cm
LBM: 61kg
BF%: ~19%

Training: 5 x intense weights weekly, 45-1h cardio daily

Diet: average 1750 - 1900cal per day
Protien 60% Carb 20% Fat 20%

Currently maintaining weight but slowly getting visibly leaner and harder so semi cut slash recomp.

Planning 5-6 week cycle with a three day taper up from 2.5mg once daily to 2.5mg twice daily from day 4 of week one. Then pending on response and results maybe up to 10mg daily. A one week taper added on at end of 5/5/5/2.5/2.5/2.5/2.5.

Should my cals increase on cycle? I'm hoping to gain LBM and drop BF in prep for comp in late October.

Also, thinking of taking 6 weeks off after first cycle then repeat the above again.

Between cycle should i adjust my cals based on my LBM increase? Are loss of gains something to be concerned about?

Any advice or suggestions welcome!!!

Thanks in advance :)

Dandylion,

I certainly don't have the knowlege to make any meaningful recommendations, so hopefully Kawi or some of the others will give some real world input.

However the reason I posted is to say, that your post is really a great one, Plenty of details,history etc. Such a great change from most first cycle question posts.

Welcome aboard,

Thank you Far from massive! Appreciate the welcome! Wasn't sure if this belonged in diet section, or here!! If I get to turn pink there may even be a better place for it. :)

Welcome.

Welcome yeah i copy and paste thiss to the diet section but we all love new female members:) Iam sorry I dont know much about the female body and hormones or diet..Best of luck to you though!

Thank you!! Yep, made a thread in diet section also :P

I would like to say I DO know a lot about the female body, but in this particular case I can't help much. It would help if you could post a pic......:-)
