10 days into anavar only cycle

[TheLastRabbi]

hey there!
I'm now 10 days into my first cycle.I started off with 40mg ed for the first week to test the water and have now upped it to 60mg ed as I have had virtually no sides as of yet.
stats:male age 35,76kg body weight at 7%bf.
goals:I just want to get my bf down to about 5%.I have been at 5.5 but due to stresses at home and work II've been yoyoing the last few mths.My diet is 100% all of the time.I only have 1 cheat meal every saturday religiously.As for my training,I have a pt/mentor whom does my programming and is poliquin qualified level 1,2 and 3 so I know my training is spot on and all my ligaments/tendons are strong as I did 4mths of prehab work before I started proper lifting and am 18mths in at this stage.I had been training for 8yrs previous to this so am by no means a new comer.Basically,I want to gain maybe 3-4kg of lean muscle and keep it afterwards.Also,I would like to make some strength gains too.The reason I've chosen anavar is firstly because I'm not looking for big gains that I will lose after cycle and I don't want it to be too obvious that I'm taking any form of steroid.I have no interest in injecting either.
anyway,10 days in,my strength have increased noticably on leg days especially and less but still noticably on upper body days.I have hardened up and filled out a bit.I was quite muscular already so I think its more so a case of it showcasing it was there as apposed to building new muscle in 10days.I did a lot of research before I decided to take this path and was happy that what I want is achievable with this product but then the last couple of days,I read that I may lose the gains I make.I'm gonna keep going and complete cycle regardless.
Can anyone with experience in anavar only cycles please give me feedback on their experiences.
Thanks in advance

once your cycle ends, i hope one day you can use your penis for sex again, if not, enjoy your new windsock

OP your going to fvck yourself up running anavar without test. you do know anavar shuts down your natty test production?

[BlueWaffle21]

What was the reasoning behind not using Test as a base?

[t-dogg]

Yeah running test is safer and will yield better results also for you.

[thediabolicalking]

If pinning is not an option, look into something like protomax, d-plex, or stano. They are all legal dht precursors that may provide some of the benefits of having a test base due to there androgenic nature. Proto and d-plex are discontinued and may be tough to find, but stano and its clones are pretty available, and around 1g a day is pretty nice. It also isn't 17aa methylated unlike proto and d-plex which is a bonus.

But truthfully, nothing can truly replace a test base like actual test. In my case, I am living in very close quarters with 5 other people at the moment, and pinning is not an option. Im doing protomax+var and enjoying it a lot

Subscribed to this.

Lol really? You're at 5.5% and you want to juice to 5% and gain 2 lbs? Because that's suppose to transform your body? This must be a joke

[TheLastRabbi]

I don't need to gain 12-15lbs.im not looking for that kind of increase.as I said,I'm currently 7% and want to get to 5% while gaining a few pounds that I will keep.i have no interest in gaining a lot of water and then deflating after.anything I read before I started cycle indicated that anavar at low dosage will not completely stop nat test production so this is why I chose it as I'm not interested in pinning.will winstrol be of benefit with test levels?
How much shud I take?

Luda ur practically in the same boat. You want to juice to gain 10lbs in your other thread not to mention you don't even diet, well have one I should say.

hi mate i done anavar for 8 weeks, started at 60mg a day and then got to 80mg a day. my strength went up and a lost a few % body fat. with regards to shutting you down it was not so bad for me i was only down for about a week and then i became horny as usual.

[Times Roman]

first, it sounds like you have already been hard at this for a while. My hats off to you if you truly at 5.5% bf! I would say maybe 1% or less of the blokes here are that low.

I've had a few var cycles, without test, and here's the main thing that i can remember.

First, my results will differ from yours. reason is im 3x the bodyfat %.

I usually dose at 100mg/day, since i only buy bulk powder and less expensive, not worried about cost as much.

after a week or two, strength gains up some. I'd call it moderate compared to other aas i've taken. Also seem to get slightly noticeably bigger. I usually run for 6 or 8 weeks.

But here is the thing, and i didn't notice it until my woman pointed it out to me (she didn't know i was running the var). she wanted to know if something was going on... why wasn't i all over her like i usually am? tbh, i hadn't thought or noticed it. but yes, i wasn't thinking of sex much until she pointed it out. the var had suppressed my libido. It's a subtle thing, because it is sometimes difficult not noticing something you are not doing.

I still take var, but now with test. Before, since it was var only, the loss of libido is a big clue that your natty test production is being suppressed. Definately not a good thing!

I have also done an anavar only cycle: which makes me also want to ask this question...
Test with Anavar-
Anavar Only-

Which one will you keep most gains off? And which one is easier to recover from?

I am guilty of this also in the past so would be very appreciative if some1 could answer my question

[Polish]

Okay I have to ask this to clear it up for myself. Test is injected right? Also would taking tribulus while taking var help with the libido?

what do you mean no side effects?? increased strength is a side effect... are you taking hcg?? are your testicals shrinking yet??

and if your diet is 100% all the time, you will not gain weight on a test cycle.. steroids don't make you gain weight, they enable faster recovery, and with proper nitrogen levels allow for more protein uptake..

so not sure if you are being realistic with your goals.. I would have assumed you would have chosen winni instead of var if you were going to do an oral only... dry you out nice..

keepable gains is more about your diet while you are on..

faster recovery?? test only.. test and var great combo for recomp but both need a pct..

[DigitalGorilla]

I hate to disagree with everyone but I did 3 ANAVAR only cycles.....and had the same type of results I had when I took it with TEST.....no sides from any of the cycles either...and i was still getting hard 3 to 4 times a day ...

[warmouth]

I think var supresses T, but nota total shutdown. I think test SHOULD be used, but that is what will actually shut you down. Recovery should in theory be fairly quick with var only, but why risk possible negative sides? Even a 2% topical test should work fine, and it wont shut down total productionat only 2%. I do think var only is safer for the HPTA than test, but that is my own opinion based that I believe supression is ultimately better than total shutdown.

I agree......I actually lost about 8 lbs while on TEST E

[TheLastRabbi]

Thanks guys for all the feedback .
Has anyone used anavar only and anavar with Winnie and can compare cycle results.
The big thing for me is keeping my strength and minimal size gains at end of cycle.i didn't mention that I have nolvadex for my pct

[Metalject]

The good news is you should easily be able to obtain your goal with this cycle of Anavar. It will still take work and you need to give it time, two weeks in is nothing. If your diet really is spot on but you're struggling to get rid of that last bit of fat, the Anavar should help. This is one of the few steroids that has been proven to promote direct fat loss in a very strong and pronounced manner.

The bad news is your test levels are going to be suppressed. Based on the dose you're taking your levels will drop by approximately 50%. At your age, this would more than likely put you in a low testosterone condition. It would for a lot of guys in their 20's but in your 30's the odds are greater. You may, however, still have enough test to function properly, but you may not feel as good overall. Some type of exogenous testosterone would be best at a low TRT dose...a gel would be fine if you don't want to inject. Thankfully, natural testosterone recovery does appear to be a little easier when using Anavar due to its relatively mild nature.

Anavar and Winstrol together and nothing else will shut you down even more...definitely not the best way to go if you want to avoid low testosterone.

That's exactly what I wanted to know,thanks

Would supplementing tribulus during/after be advised?

What dosage were you taking? Also did you have an AI? Some people say there is estrogenic effects, some say there isn't.. Thanks
