    Is Anavar a good place to start?

    I'm thinking of trying my first cycle and from what I've been researching it seems VAR is what I've been looking for. I'm looking for something that will give me some strength gains and a good cut. I know you don't typically gain much weight with this product but from what I've found out is that you typically retain what you gain after the cycle. Also, I want to start with an oral product and this seems to have very little toxic properties and is prob. best to start. I know the draw back is that it is expensive but what are your thoughts? I'm thinking of starting here and then on my next cycle tying an injected product.

    Also, with this product is there a need for a post cycle therapy? Seems that there isn't from what I could find out.

    Any thoughts or advice? I'm in the learning and research stage right now so please be gentle on me... Also, how many pills/mgs are in a typical bottle of this stuff?

    Here you go:

    I'm 33 years old
    173lbs. 5'8" tall
    train 4 days a week 1 1/2 - 2 hours each session.
    Training schedule:

    day 1: Chest and shoulders
    day 2: Bis and tris
    day 3: Legs
    day 4: back

    Typically train Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri.

    I eat mostly healthy about 3000 calories a day. Take BCAA's, Whey, Creatine, multi vitamin, and Pre workout NO product. Drink at least a gallon of water a day, 5 eggs for breakfast, whole wheat bread, LOTS of chicken, etc.

    I'm looking to gain some weight but I know Anavar isn't the best for weight gain but I want to get more cut and gain some additional strength.

    var will give u LBM without significant weight gain. good for cut and strength.
    60-80mg ed for 8weeks is the normal cycle. yes, u'll need PCT. Nolva for 40/40/20/20 will be sufficient.

    Its a good start, but you wont be near as happy as a simple test E/C cycle.

    Personally if he wants to do a anavar cycle I would say go for it. At lease he is not wanting to do a d-bol/winny only cycle. This might be a good start for him.

    I would highly recommend that you add a small replacement dose of test with the var.

    It really seems that most people recommend using Test E or C. What is the difference between the 2? If I decide to take Test E or C will I become bloated? That is exactly what I'm trying to avoid. I would love the weight gain so long as it's not water weight and a bloated look. I want to get leaner which I was I was thinking of the Anavar.

    Thanks,
    Pete

    For your purposes there is little difference. I believe that if you took a small replacement dose of 250mgs of test e or test c you will be amazed at the difference in the results you get and the way you feel. There should not be that much bloat with a small dose. Var will shut you down and you want to have some test in your system when that happens! Also, test e helps me with fat loss when my diet and trainning are in check.

    Not to sound like a "TOTAL NOOB" (even though I am) but what are you referring to when you mention taking a replacement dose of test? Do you mean while I'm taking the Anavar add in a dose of the Test?

    Thanks again,
    Pete

    Yes! Anavar will shut down your Natty test to a certain point so the Maintenance shot of test keeps your levels constant while you are on the Var! I am not sure that it is 100% necessary but it is a good idea! I actually have my beother doing the same cycle 60mg of Var Ed for 6 weeks with Clen 2on 2 off and Nolva 40/40/20/20 for PCT He is a triathlete

    you would at very minimum take a 200mg shot once a week to keep you test levels at a normal range! I do not eliev for a short cycle of Var 6-8 weeks it is 100% necessary but it is recommened! As I said my brother will not do needles and I am having him run it! Just making him do 4 weeks of Nolvadex 40/40/20/20 at the end!

    So what differences could one expect when taking Anavar for a 12 week cycle? A couple of pounds of body weight and lower fat? An increase in strength? Is this a good option or should it be stacked with something else as well?

    Your answer is in this thread. Yes. Stack the VAR with a min of 250mg Test each week. Twice that if you want more than maintenance. I am putting very similar cycle together now.

    I love ANAVAR. Mild and effective. Great for stregth,,lean mass and hardness.
    Stack with some OTC creatine. Try 10-12 wk..40-60mg daily ANAVAR.

    What do you use for a PCT? Were you able to gain any weight while on Anavar?

    Thanks,
    Pete

    can you start right off the bat with a specific mg, and maintain that or do you need to ramp up, and down at the end of the cycle?
