Is this the WEAKEST cycle ever?

[Highlander]

My training partner wants to 'increase his rate of growth'. He's pretty anti-steroids for health reasons, so sticks to creatine and protein supplements.

Anyhow, I recently told him about the virtues of ANAVAR, and have hooked his interest (BTW I'm not pushing roids, just answering his questions the best I can!).

He's thinking of doing a 4 wk "sample" cycle at low doses of ANAVAR. The dose throughout would be 20mg daily (his body weight: about 200lbs).

His thinking is that this dose won't interfere with natural test. levels, and the anavar would boost his strenght allowing heavier weights=growth. He'd also be using in conjunction with creatine as the anavar would aid with creatine synthesis. Not looking for huge test. gains here, just a step up from creatine!!

What do you guys think of this? Would it be a complete waste of time and money???!!! Thanks

20mg is too low. 30mg is optimal. This won't interfere
with the HPT axis and will permit him to put
on a few pounds of muscle and get noticeably stronger.

Godspeed

The only "waste" I see here is using it for only 4 weeks.
Tell him to go for 8 weeks he will be much more pleased!
And he will gain nicely, not monster gains, but keepable gains!!

I remember a post awhile back about some guy using anavar for medical reasons. He was using a LOW dosage (i think it was no more than 10 or 12mgs per day). He stated that he had already lost 2 persent body fat and gained 4 pounds of muscle in 3 weeks.

Everyone reacts different to AS, but thing fact is your friend shouldn't waste his money at 20mgs day when most claim great results with 30-40mg/day, especially when it's his "sample" cycle as you put it. And please tell him to go 6-8 weeks at least!!!

 

[ORGANON CANON]

6-8 weeks at 40-50mg a day will not give him any sides and he will actually be making gains instead of flushing away money

 

[Highlander]

Thanks for the advice guys! I'll pass the information on...

The guy posted he was taking 7.5mg per day and he was up 1.5 lbs and lost an inch on his waist in 2 weeks. Not bad. He also said his overall feeling was great.

 

[MadCow1]

Many reports in non-career steroid users of 20mg per day yielding very good results. Not explosive growth but in the neighborhood of 10+ lbs. of LBM and significant fat loss over periods of less than 6 weeks.

Someone just posted results like this a few days ago.

Remember to use creatine w/ anavar to enahnce effectiveness.

I think I am the guy on the low dose you are talking about.
I took 7.5mg a day the first 2 Weeks
Then 10mg a day the third Week
I do feel great and my body has changed quite a bit.
bf% 16.6 to 14.1
Scale Weight=+5lbs
Lean Mass=+8lbs
Fat Mass=-3lbs
I am going to up my dose for the fourth week to 15mgs though, because my sex drive has dropped back off.
This and the depression were the reasons I was using in the first place.

 

[Highlander]

Do low doses of anavar really boost your sex drive?

Sounds like a lower dose cycle would be worth it then!

Thanks again.

Is pyramiding (or at least increasing every week) a good idea with Anavar?

 

[Jeff_rys]

it saves you money

when increasing every week (am not saying this is how it should be done), and you are not pleased with the results (otherwise you would not increase), at least you are not wasting anything. It still is expensive.

 

[Tombstonealley]

I am pyramiding purely to see how low I can go and get the results I want. My primary reason for using is not physique enhancement. I am posting my results so that you guys may get some ideas about how low you may be able to go as well. I hope this helps you guys. I am in no way saying to start this low, but based on my results so far perhaps many start too high.

So far on this week 15mg/day my sex drive is up. Sex three times and it wasn't a chore. If this doesn't work it is time to get rid of the woman.....HEHEHEHE!
