I created this thread to obtain knowledge from my fellow AM community. Anavar, what do yall know about it? I know nothing at all, hence the creation of this thread. My friend started taking it so I wanted to learn about it. How should you take? Is is good, bad? How hard is it on your body? What and how are the results?
 
Anavar is a very mild anabolic that is about as safe as they come....gains will be relatively mild as well, and you'd have to dose upwards of 100mgs ED to honestly see nice gains. At the cost of that cycle, you could pretty much do anything else you wanted to do. Women typically respond very well with little to no sides.

How would it compare to T-bol? Honestly even though i have found multiple legitmate sources, Tbol is next to non existant. I hear Anavar being a dht derivitive can also cause hair problems for many, your take?
 
if i was going to compare it to anything i would say primo but you get better strength gains with anavar. If i was a woman it would be at the top of my list but for guys there are far better ways to spend your money. If you are starting out it is definatly a good introduction and you can bail any time with no ill effects none what so ever.

It should compare well with Turinabol...they both have very low androgenic profiles. As far as var causing hair loss, Im unaware of that, but the vast majority of my experience with this has been with women.

Var is relatively safe but there's drawbacks, at the doses needed to really get results it has a significant impact on cholesterol, also it's very expensive.

I hope your friend knows what he's doing. As far as cycling goes, men have much better alternatives than anavar-only.

I'm on my first, practically Anavar only, cycle at the moment. I'm 220lb 6.5´ and taking 50mg/ed. It's now 10th day and I'm quite amazed by the results. Maybe it's because I've never tried more than creatine and sheiks before. My testosteron level is naturally very high, maybe that helps also, but this week for example I added 10lb to bench press + 2reps more than usual. Squat +30lb, leg press now also +50lb (5 reps 660lb) etc. I've never felt this way, going to gym and finding out that last weeks weights are too easy. At 50mg I would have to say, I feel damn good. Only thing is that I've lost the appetite I had before, so sometimes have to force myself to eat. From my view, I've never thought of rising the dose up to 100mg.
also using 6g fish oil/ED
20mg/policosanol/ED
2000mg vitamin C/ED
Sylmarin 600mg/ED
and multivitamins with minerals.

People who helped me here when I was asking questions about anavar really know what they are talking about, so I'd listen carefully what they are saying.

Keep us posted on your progess at 50mgs...I havent had much luck in men with doses that low, so I would like to hear your progress...thanks.

Pretty expensive around here, *$ a 10mg pill. I heard a lot of guys doing 50 mg with great results, but this is about **$ a day, which is very high IMO.

Even though winny is not exaclty the same, a 30mg dose a day would produce good results, and cost 15% of the anavar a day instead..

Just a thought..

I ain't saying where to buy it from..I can't see why that wouldn't be allowed. Anyways,no bigdeal lol.

I know its not allowed on other steroid boards, but not entirely postive here, cant be asked to read the rule :o

Better safe than sorry though :)

x2 even though Var's said to be 'milder' on the liver than other 17aa's it has a substantial effect on cholesterol. I've know a few who had their HDL knocked into single digits with Var, ala SD.

what is your pct protocol
 
What is a good pct for anavar? and what should he take to help cholestol? I dont really know the ins and outs of his cylce but i dont think he has anythin other than thistle. Also what do yall think would be a good dosage to take and for how long. (in mind he is 6-4 and 310)

I'll be glad to. Today is resting day, so trying to take some time to put my workout routine into Microsoft Excel, so I could see the progress in different exercises in %.

Raising total cholesterol is a negative side of anabolics but quite possibly the most detrimental effect of 17aa anabolics is their ability to drastically lower good cholesterol (HDL). The most effective thing for raising good cholesterol (HDL) is Niacin. But it's probably not a good idea to take Niacin ON cycle but rather after the cycle to avoid the combined liver strain of the 17aa Var and Niacin both.

Niacin is best taken in either 1 daily dose or 2 doses at the most as more than 2 separate doses is not advisable. Instant release is the way to go as the extended time released versions seem to negatively affect the liver much more than the standard instant release. 1-3 grams per day of non-flush Niacin (Inositol Hexanicotinate) has been shown to raise HDL up to 30% which is more than prescription statins :thumbsup:

Good post. I had no idea niacin had any impact on cholesterol.
 
Guys, I was at Walmart the other day in their health & fitness section and they were selling Akavar - is this the same thing?

:fool2:

I had chances to get legit Var before but passed. The only situation I'd use it was if I were doing an aggressive cut. I never used an anabolic to cut and probably never will but I've seen situations where Var reduced trunk fat and BF pretty drastically with no working out or dieting. It seems pretty amazing as far as lipolysis goes.

Yeah, I think it's popularity is growing strong. 30-50 mg seem to help quite a bit for some.

To those who said that anavar is only for females and rich yuppies: I don't think so. Yes, it turned out to be quite expensive, but for me, it's my first cycle ever. Why should I jump into something I have little knowledge, head first. It took me to read about Anavar almost a year. I think when I go to the gym I don't jump to the biggest weights but learn and start small, to avoid hurting my body. Same principles here.

jumping into something you have little knowledge on? well obviously you read about anavar so that means you could do the same for others. With the price you paid for that cycle you could have got stuff for 3 cycles. All im saying is anavar isnt cheap and there are other things out there that are just as effective for half the price. How is your cycle layout? dosages length and such? PCT? Even a $40 bottle of an epithio compound has very low sides and probably give you more muscle than anavar.

PP, mind giving some specific names of products/compounds that are superiour to Anavar, yet maintain a similar "mildness" regarding sides? I did Epistane and did not like the sides (shedding, back pumps, acne, etc. ).

I'm very interested in alternatives to Anavar (at least researching some). Thanks all....great thread!

I've seen some speculation that it has this effect due to its impact on cortisol. Which seems to be supported by the fact that guys tend to gain the fat back around the midsection once they cease using the compound. I think there is more on this at M&M.

As far as OTC anabolic go, possible the closest thing we've seen to Var was M4OHN which is sadly now discontinued. And regardless of their differences on paper, results are very consistent with Oral Turinabol.

Though T-bol and Var are both getting exceedingly hard to find legit versions of. They did chemical tests of about 20 different AAS in MD a couple months ago and about 50% of the orals actually tested out to be regular methyl-testosterone. It's likely so popular for counterfeiting because it's so extremely cheap and easy to manufacture. Plus it'll likely yield some androgenic sides so many may think it was legit but they ran it wrong - and continue wasting their money on that same supplier.

x2 - I read something similar. Var's supposed to have a pretty potent cortisol blocking affinity. That reminds me, I still have a bottle of Retain2 left. I wonder why it was discontinued by AX, it worked pretty good for me the 1st time I used it.

Do you hae an electronic copy of that? I'm curious.

This is very funny cause my friend said he took anavar, and said he had back pumps.. might be M test...

Is it allowed to post names of the pharmaceuticals here? I have anavar from two different pharmaceuticals. One is still active for what I've heard but I can't remember correctly if the other has maybe stopped producing, which means that I may have something else in my hands than legit anavar.

Im no expert on var as ive never ran it so im not sure im the right guy to be asking. I do however have a good idea on how that compound is etc. I would second the M4OHN as probably the best comparison but its probably tougher to find that now as its been discontinued for quite some time. I think Epi but it seems there is such a wide range of effects between users. Some say water weight and bad sides, for me i got dry gains and pratically no sides at all besides cramping at times and lethargy. Mind you some guys get sheddin with anavar as well. The last that comes to mind is an Hdrol compound, ive never ran that either but i have a good idea that its mild and gives slow dry gains similar to var.

Very good, thank you. I will look into Hdrol (that the complete name or??). Epistane and me do not mix well so scratch Epi.

i was thinking about doing an anavar only cycle my first time (i have never used steroids before) and i was wondering what i should do for post cycle therapy. ive heard var was safe enough that you dont need any pct but ive also heard it can shut down your htpa...do i need to take stuff for pct, and if so at what dosage? any help would be appreciated.

Santa, from my research, not much is needed for PCT. Nolva 20/20/20/20 is enough and maybe toss in a test booster. I have Torem. so I'd prob. run an easy 3 week PCT after a 6-week (40/50/60/60/50/40) run of Var. V. mild stuff man.

No - I wish I did. It was in my doctors office waiting lounge, lol. It think it was either the Aug or Sept issue - I think. I may actually try to buy a copy from MD because it was highly informative. It had specifics on each brand and specifics on different countries, etc. If I pick it up I'll PM you.

As far as OTC anabolics go H-Drol would definitely be similar. When I ran it I gained 8-9 pounds and lost 2% BF. These results seem to be right on par with others using H-Drol as well, with the exception of those eating for a straight bulk. I was only eating about 250 calories over maintenance as well.
 
I´m on my day 18 now on cycle Anavar only. Does Anavar affect bp? I´m noticing little headaches. Also left ear tends to have some kind of pressuring sensation. Thought that might be also because of tense neck muscles, they have definitely also tighten up with rest of the body. Thinking of giving a visit to my masseuse. Also noticed a little libido loss, before cycle I was most of the time ready whenever, where-ever but now I noticed that my interest to "horizontal entertainment" was not what it was before. Started taking Proviron on Monday and don't know if it's already working, but thoughts of "good old things" are back again:D OK, time to go to gym...morning workouts give good energy boost for the rest of the day.

Adam, mind restating how you're dosing Var and your results thus far (vascularity? Fat loss? Mood? Muscle gains? strength? etc). Thanks for the update!
