Does bridging inhibit your receptor clearing up?

OK Once you start to bridge you are no longer cycling. You are then on all the time. Simple as that. The impulse to bridge is caused by the beginning stages of psychological addiction. Reflect on yourself and realize the addiction you are strting to fall into. Do not bridge. Let your body recover completly and train hard and intelligently to bring your size and strenght as close as possible to where is was when you were on. When you reach that point, that's when you are ready for another cycle. Not before then. I have used that formula in the past and it works great.

The short answer is no. Some people have more receptors than other people, and it is possible to gain more receptors by building more LBM. However, the receptors that a person has do not become more or less "receptive".
Now, if you run anavar in a bridge, that may mean that you will begin your next cycle closer to your genetic potential than you would be if you hadn't run the anavar bridge, and therefore you might not gain as much weight on the cycle. But that is merely because you started the cycle at a higher weight than you would have started at if you hadn't bridged with the Anavar.
I hope that makes sense. If it does, how about some karma?
It is kind of like the concept that the first cycle often yields the greatest gains of LBM, since before your first cycle you are usually pretty far from your potential.

Exactly. You said it better than I did. And doesn't that call into question whether bridging is really a good idea for most of us non pros? Is it really worth it?
I tend to think that it is a good idea to give your body a break once in a while, but I guess it all depends on the individual.
I think gwl made some good points above.
Ok, well for that matter, then why work out at all during your "off time"? I mean, most people use creatine and other non-anabolic supplements while they are not cycling and continue to gain. Now granted the gains are not optimal most times, but gains ARE gains... and creatine does cause growth.
I gather that bridging is more of a "gain keeping" process more that a "gain making" process. Because Anavar does not aromatize, it SHOULD (I'm no scientist, mind you) allow for HTPA production to resume (while on clomid therapy) while causing your body to slow its growth, not stop it. Yes, your body will still grow, but anavar is a weak 'roid.
As far as starting closer to your genetic potential... isn't that why we are all doing this? To get as big as we comfortably want to be in a elatively short amount of time.
My question (for those who KNOW this) is:
Would an anavar bridge cause my body to be less responsive to a fina/winny/test/eq cycle after I complete the bridge? Or would it just act as a method to solidify and maintain my gains so I start that cycle in prime condition?
thanks,

Anigo, first of all you are twisting what I said about bridging into something completely different.
If you want to bridge, do it. Anavar is an excellent choice for doing that. I may take anavar for several months at some time in the future myself. I simply expressed my opinion that it is a good idea to give your body a break once in a while.
Second of all, I answered your question in the first post I made on this thread. Now you are saying that because I opined that it may be a good idea to give your body a break once in a while, that means that I must have answered the original question wrong. Sorry, your reasoning is flawed.
Again, the answer to your question is NO. I am confident that my answer is correct. If you are looking for a different answer, regardless of what is correct, you will have to keep looking.
I don't take offense to hyou looking for more people to agree or disagree with me. I have been wrong before as have all other humans. There are plenty of bros on this board that are much more knowledgeable than I am.
But you are insulting me after I tried to help you. Its called biting the hand that feeds you. Not cool.
OK, the jets are cooled. Admittedly I've been a little touchy lately. Work is giving me fits.
I WOULD like to see somebody confirm what I said about anavar affecting "receptiveness" of the receptors, or correct me if I'm wrong.
Some of what I said above when I got off an a tangent isn't worded as clearly as it should be. It isn't that the cycle following the bridge would be less "effective", it is more accurate to say that the actual weight gain from the beginning of the cycle might be less. But you probably would still expect that the bodyweight at the end of the cycle would be slightly higher if the cycle had been preceded by an anavar bridge.
