First cycle - Anavar

[joeblower]

Firstly, my stats are as follows: I'm 33, approx 82kg at 15%bf and have been lifting consistently for the past 10 years. I am naturally quite a small guy but i try to train smart and lift hard and heavy, with good form. However, I've stagnated over the past 12 months in terms of adding bodyweight (I'm looking to reach 85kg) and lifts (benching has plateaued over past 2 years). To try to break this plateau I'm looking to start a 6 week cycle of Anavar, at 40mg ed split over two doses. In terms of ancillaries, I have two bottles of HCGenerate, 3x5000iu of HCG, some nolva and arimidex on hand. I also have some Unleashed (though it doesn't seem to agree with me) and some Tribestan for natural test boost, Liv52 for liver protection, Animal Omega and Udo's choice for lipids, and Animal Pak for multis. I know this might sound overboard for such a light first cycle, but I'd rather be over-prepared and I want to get the most from my first time on cycle.

My diet is solid, with 3 solid meals plus 2-3 small meals/snacks (fruit, protein bar, brown rice with chicken, etc), plus 2-3 protein shakes per day.

Am looking for advice on pct and what would be the best way to run the HCGenerate/HCG? I was thinking of running HCGenerate for weeks 1-4 then HCG at 5000iu pw for weeks 5-7. Less sure on how to run the nolva, so would really like to hear advice from the forum.

As a final aside, I'm concerned with hairloss so will run 5mg of finasteride ed while on cycle, then back to 1.25mg post cycle (I've been on this for 6 years now), along with nizoral 2% twice a week and rogaine foam.

My main concerns are breakouts and keeping my libido high, so would appreciate any advice.

Thanks in advance.

you could definitely lose your libido w/ a cycle that doesnt have test. there are other things you can take but you might or might not suffer this.. I would for sure so I always add some test

forget the anavar for a sec.

if you couldnt break through the weights you need to change your routine.

if you cant gain weight you need to eat more then you are currently eating.

do those two things for a month or two until they are just an easy habit then start the var.

finastride and anavar with no test? lol good luck with your libido

Ok, so basically my question now is: can I run a var only cycle and maintain my libido if I have HCGenerate, HCG and a natural test booster on hand?

I'm open to the idea of using test only as a first cycle also, but I'm concerned about the hairloss and I've never pinned before (other than some hgh using slin pins).

Oh, and Judo Tom, i appreciate the advice. However, I have varied my routine a lot over the past 12 months to try to break my plateaus and had some small improvements but nothing which has unlocked any substantial growth. I've also been working on my diet to increase the number of quality meals and again made some small gains.

This is all on the back of 10+ years of dedicated gym work.

Any further suggestions are most welcome.
