lean mass i mean hardening up and shredding your muscle, youve been smoked after changing your story 8 times drop it
I almost want to stop responding to you because it's so annoying reading your posts that don't use proper grammar, but I will anyway.
"Bulking" means attempting to gain muscle. If some fat and water come along with it, then so be it, but the qualifying factor is the muscle gain. And there's no reason this cannot be accomplished on var. Will some compounds allow you to do this more easily? Perhaps, but you seem to be implying that if a guy is eating well over maintenance, yet using var, that he won't be able to gain any mass.
Lol at "shredding your muscle". You mean what happens when you *gasp*...cut? You seem to be putting a lot of stock into which drugs you're using and not much into what is actually important: one's diet. Var doesn't have to make you shredded; you can take var and gain lbs of fat as well...

There you go speculating about how much more muscle you gain or lose based on what type of gear you run.
You are forgetting "I" am the one saying diet is what matters, not your choice of drug. Like I said above, if you think var is going to cause an equivalent amount of bloat to deca, I am unsure why I am even continuing this debate.

I dont want to speculate on things that cant be substanciated. I will say that the guy on 1g of test will be able to gain more than the guy on 1g of var. You can speculate on how much more, but Im not.
THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT THOUGH. If the guy on test isn't going to gain that much more than the guy on var, then many people would prefer to run the var because there are less sides. THAT is my argument. Your posts, as well as Mr. Grammar's, are implying that you feel the gains from test are going to be substantially greater. If that's not the case, then there is no argument to be had.
ex. Guy's maintenance calories = 4000
Guy is bulking so he consumes 5000 calories everyday
We're talking about the same guy, with the same genetics, doing the same training program. Is he really going to gain that much more off of test than var? I don't think so; you guys seem to. And if there is a large difference in muscle gained over the course of the cycle, did the extra sides make it worth it?
In any event, an advanced bodybuilder is not going to be running a var-only cycle OR a test-only cycle.

Well, I guess your driving at a much slower speed, so if you crash, you have a much greater chance of survival.
lol, thank-you, the analogy is now complete.

I would like to know what you used that allowed you to get 40lbs gains while only being able to yeild 10. Again, you seem to be speculating that gains are only 1-2lbs different on var as compared to something like test. I dont know how you come to these conclusions.
It's called a hypothetical example, with a hint of exageration thrown in. And yes, I AM speculating that the gains wouldn't be that much different. That's my entire argument. When was the last time you ran 1g of var/week? You've been speculating this whole time as well, but all of a sudden you won't admit it.
And guys please, was the bombing really necessary? We've got a half decent debate going and then you go and do that. I suppose it would have been better if I just agreed with you both right off the bat. Elite would really be a great board if everyone kissed everyone else's ass and all agreed on everything
