Anavar?

No, not for me...........but I am curious why I see so many posts about it.....I always thoght it was a worthless, overpriced, mild aas, but then why do so many use it?

Also, if it really burns and eats fat like no other aas, even at a dose say of 30g/day, why wouldnt more use it during BULKING to keep the fat down? Why the hell is the price so crazy? Just curious...thanks for the replies!

Steroids are known for extreme fat loss now? Heh.

Loss of fat is a rather inconsistant finding with steroid use, and is usually dependent on energy balance. Fat has an innate tendency to proportionally increase with the weight gain caused by anabolics. I'm unaware of any solid evidence showing increased metabolic rates not casued by increases in LBM.

What's the reasoning behind the thermogenic or whatever mechanism causing these purported extreme fat loss claims?

Oxandrolone is commonly used because it has less pronounced androgenic activity and well pronounced anabolic activity, the latter likely due to it's nitrogen-retaining activity. Another reason is wide availability. Whether or not a steroid is available on the open market dictates it's popularity.

very good post, too many people think of steroids as magical fat loss drugs when it is diet and exercise that will promote fat loss

40mg on a bulk clean cals would keep you lean or "leaner" than someone not using it? Then it may be worth it if it actually fought fat......
