Nelson, your input on this short cycle

[Public Enemy]

Nelson I am planning to get on a short cycle of Anavar only for about three weeks at 30mg per day. This is my first ever cycle.
I am a 37 year old male triathlete 5'6" tall and weigh 147 lbs, 10% fat. My goal is to gain 3-4 lbs of solid muscle and increase strength.
What is your opinion on this cycle and also what PCT would you recommend? Unleashed, PostCycle, Clomid, or nothing at all?

Thanks for your help.

Anavar only...hmm...I definitely want to hear Nelson's input on this one. I don't want to speak for him, but I *think* he'll say that the cost to benefit ratio is too low...meaning that Anavar by itself although fairly safe won't do much from an anabolic perspective. Just a guess though, let's see what he has to say.

Assuming cost is no object, at 30 mgs a day, Var isn't so safe. (To the liver at least, but 3 weeks ain't bad)

That dosage comes to 210 mgs a week. Hell, you can do 250mgs of test a week and it'll be just about as effective and maybe even safer.


If you go with the Var you won't need any anti-e because Var does not aromatize. It will cause some suppression though so I'd recommend using the Unleashed afterward, maybe even while on it. Var is not a very strong androgenic,so it won't suppress much but the little suppression it does cause can actually leave you with a lower sex drive while on since you won't be replacing your lowered test with any androgen. Of course this varies from person to person. At 37, you may feel it more than a guy 27. Maybe not.

You may want to consider splitting the difference. 200 mgs of T and 14 mgs of var is a very conservatibve cycle that can still be productive providing you eat at least 300 grams of protein a day. You may want to add some creatine too since Var tends to use it up.

BLATENT PRODUCT PLUG WARNING!

You may also want to check out "BIG BLAST" from www.proteinfactory.com whey isolate, whole egg, bovine serum, creatine, high glycemic carbs and nitric oxide precursors all in one.

You're only 147 lbs? Mix it with Half and Half and add two a day to your meals. You'll grow. In fact, considering your size, I'd suggest trying this first.

Thanks Nelson. Being a cyclist and swimmer I can not afford to get heavy hence my decision to go with Anavar instead of T.

I will follow your suggestions. Thanks again.

If you're not looking to gain much, winstrol is another option. Look what it did for Ben Johnson! : )

Nelson, one last question please.
Do you think that it would be better to go for only 20mg of Anavar daily and do it for 4 weeks instead of three?
Again, I am looking for about 4lbs of lean mass and some more strength. I have already stocked up on protein, amino acids, and creatine.

Thanks again.

The difference is negligable. As far as how much lean mass you put on, that's a matter of how hard you train, (lift weights) not just the drugs.
