Well there is evidence that oxandrolone can cause a reduction in fat around the abdomen, and I have noticed it when my diet is right, but it's not a "fat burning steriod" it's still going to be base on your diet. It cause significant strength increase, primarily by an increase in creatin phosphate stores in the mucsle with only a minimal size gain. It greatly increases protein synthesis, and maintains maby the best safty profile of all steriods (at least the orals).Some will say being 17AA that it's to toxic to liver to be the safets compound, but I've never experinced a problem nad there have even been cases where it was used to treat patients wich liver damage-therfore I think it is. I would not run the Ox and winny together though. Two 17AA run simultaneously is just not a good idea. you might want to consider dropping the winny and taking a higher dose of the anavar for a little longer with the EQ..say 30 to 50 mg's for last 8 weeks of EQ, and that would be a much better/safer cycle IMO ( I plan on doing the same soon). Do a search and look at some of Huck's old post on Ox, ther'es a ton of them, you should find some good info there
