Beginner Anavar Cycle Example (12 weeks total cycle time)
Weeks 1-12:
– Testosterone Enanthate at 250 – 500mg/week
Weeks 1-8:
– Anavar at 80 – 120mg/day
Oxandrolone will make you veiny as all hell. And quickly. Look out for brand new bulging forearms veins by around day 6. If you are following a cutting regimen, expect new spider webs in your chest, shoulders and quads by around day 21.
When on Anavar, the pumps are constant. Bored sitting in class/at work? Do some unweighted calf raises. After about three minutes, your calves will be ready to pop. Youll be doing something like drinking a cup of water, and after a minute of holding it, your biceps will be completely full and pumped. You may have to cut some sets short in the gym due to the painful pumpage.
Even when cutting, you can expect new strength gains every workout after about day 14-21.
Anavar has been shown to contribute to accelerated fat loss in both subcutaneous and visceral fat, concentrated effects in the abdomen and thigh area. And if you’ve used the drug, you can attest to this…if you cant sport the 6-8 pack look on var, its not gonna happen .
Anavar should be run @ at least 80mg a day to see all of the benefits it offers. Dosages upwards of 140mg have been shown to exhibit diminishing returns.
Anavar is a 17 Alpha Alkylated steroid , and is toxic. It has been shown to be less toxic than other orals, and is even used as liver treatment for recovering alcoholics. Still, i would limit my time using it to 8 weeks, 10 at the most. It would be beneficial to your liver to use several different OTC supplements during, and perhaps after your cycle. A few preventive measures never hurt anyone .
Anavar isn’t going to kill your cholesterol levels like some drugs (winny being one of the worst), but it may put your LDL/HDL profiles outside of the normal range.
What is the highest recommended dose for bodybuilding purposes?
The consensus is that anything over 80mg shows extreme diminishing returns.
Does Oxandrolone suppress your HPTA (natural testosterone production)?
Yes. Research shows as little as 2.5mg can suppress in some folks. As far as the effects of this lowered test production, at 40mg a day.
Is Clomid needed post cycle?
Yes. This should be apparent from the above question. You may find that 50mg/day for two weeks is enough however. Nolvadex use is also encouraged.
Cholesterol?
User experience seems to point to the fact that prolonged use does bring your good cholesterol down and your bad cholesterol up. Take your flax seed oil.
“Also, because oral steroids can decrease the “good” HDL cholesterol and increase the “bad” LDL cholesterol, oral steroids can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). If you use oral anabolic steroids consider taking 400 to 800 IU of Vitamin E, and 1,000 to 2,000 mg. of Vitamin C with each meal. These vitamin antioxidants help to protect cholesterol from the oxidation that is associated with CVD.”
Side effects
Common side effects you should be prepared for: Appetite loss, stomach discomfort, increase skin “grease”. I personally suffered extreme loss of appetite, but no stomach discomfort. Appetite came back in 1 week. Rarer side effects: acne
Overall, this is an extremely mild drug. You should experience virtually no side effects. Those you do experience will diminish over time.
How long before it kicks in?
Individual thing. Varies on product line as well. I noticed vascularity and hardness within 2-3 days with generics, and strength in 2.5 weeks. Wait about 3 weeks for the full effect before you get disappointed. Vascularity and hardness will come quick, it’s very nice.Spiderweb veins on your pecs that you’ve never seen before in just 3 days on Oxandrolone – “Personal friend, anavar user”
What is this drug used for?
Involuntary weight loss. HIV, AIDS, burns etc. Liver treatment in severe alcohol induced liver damage.
What is the half life of Oxandrolone? - 9 hours.
When should Oxandrolone be dosed?
There are two camps.
Camp 1: Take it all in the morning. The rationale is that your blood concentrations will ‘fall off’ by the time you go to bed, which will limit HPTA impact during this crucial “recentering” time for your body.
Camp 2: Spread it out evenly through the day. This will keep blood concentrations steady. Plus, don’t we want that nice anabolic substance in our veins during our growth at night?
My comments: With a halflife of 9 hours, this issue is virtually meaningless. The ideas used in “camp 1″ apply well when you have a substance with a 3 hour halflife (Dianabol), (e.g. if 30mg of dbol is taken at 9am, only about 1 miligram is left in your bloodstream by bedtime. great.) I don’t think things pan out so well with a 9 hour halflife drug. If 40mg is taken at 9am, at bedtime you will have approximately 10mg or more in your bloodstream. You would have about 15 at bedtime if you took it 4 times evenly through the day. I don’t think you are giving your body any drop off at night anyway.
Conclusion: Take it whenever you want. Choose the camp you agree with and do it, things will work out.
How about doses for women?
Have a look at the sample Anavar cycle. Women do not need large dosages to see results.
How long is a typical Oxandrolone cycle?
Most tend to agree longer is better with Ox. 6 weeks seems to be the minimum, while 10 weeks is recommended and common. Over 10 weeks might be stressful on the liver.
