Getting sick on cycle

[The Red Dragon]

I started a var only cycle (don't ask) yesterday. I used 25 mg in the morning and 25 mg at night yesterday. Today I can tell I'm coming down with a cold or a flu or whatever. Should I continue the cycle or just wait out the cold then restart?

vitamin C is your best friend

I would stick it out bro, at least a couple of days to see if you adjust and get better.

What kind of Var is it?

Yeah, so far I'm cramming down zinc, vitamin C, vitamin E and tons of whey, sometimes I can completely suppress it out, hopefully thats the case. I'm just wondering because I'm only in day 2 of a 50 day cycle. I'm just concerned that a cold/flu can disrupt protein synthesis or optimal training.

Never fails, I get sick everytime I start taking any anabolics. Ususally not till the 2nd or 3rd week though so I always ride it out. The worst is having to force yourself to eat 4-5k calories a day when you have zero hunger. Not sure what I would do if I got sick so close to the begining though, good luck either way.

if you can still train and eat..continue.

I'd stop using the AS until you get better. If it were 3 wks into your cycle I'd say ride it out and still train/eat. But since it's only one day's worth, fuck it. I'd rather take my gear when I'm feeling 100%. The last thing your body wants to do is grow when it's preoccupied with fighting off infection. Oh yeah, asap go up to every guy in the gym that's bigger than you and cough/sneeze on them. That way they'll get sick too and you might be able to catch up a bit. lol

Vitamin C, lots of water, and Garlic supps-it's a natural antibiotic(supposedly?) If I really feel like shit I smoke weed and drink Nyquil while trying to sleep as much as possible until I feel better.

I agree 100% with this post. Youre only 2 days in, stop it and wait until you are totally healthy and ready to workout your hardest.

Only a day or two in, unless you'd front-loaded like a gram each of test and EQ, I'd just stop it. I got sick 3 weeks into my cycle, just now getting over it, took 3 days off from the gym last week after hitting PR's every week prior to that, pissed me off. But for anavar-only at 2 days, I'd just stop till you get over it... unless it's a cutting cycle and you don't feel too bad, then the appetite suppression can be a good thing lol. J/k, probably best to come off and start over next week
