Hey guys. Been lurking a bit reading up on everything. You all seem to have a wealth of knowledge and i cant wait to learn more from all of you.

Im 32 and live in Adelaide, Australia. Been lifting for 10 years and im at the point where im looking for that edge to keep me motivated and pushing for more.

I was curious about doing an Anavar only cycle and wanted to know your thoughts and opinions on it, would that be a good introduction for someone new to this world?

Welcome… no it wouldn’t be a good intro, anavar and every other AAS will shut your balls off, you need test as a base, and as a first cycle it would be recommended that you do ONLY test, you also should post some stats and goals you want from a cycle, and what is your eating habits like, protein carbs and calories, the more info you share the more people can help you, you would also need a AI to help combat estrogen issues… do your research ask questions

Welcome aboard! Always have a test base. Oral only cycles just aren’t a good thing. If it’s the pinning that is an issue, then at some point you got to face it. Or get the o’lady to do it @John said it best in his post. I’m just saying hello and agreeing with it.

My woman does my glutes.

Welcome!! And agree with @John and @TBU. You really need the test as a base. Oral only cycles can be harsh on the liver and kidneys, you can combat this with NAC and Tudca supplements to help the organs. But if your worried about pining my suggestion would be look into micro dosing with an insulin needle. I mean you can easily get 2 ml worth test E or Test C in a week. You would have to pin every day at .40 ml on the insulin needle. Pinning Monday through Friday only off on the weekend. For AI that’s up to you and how your body aromatizes or produce the estergen. I would recommend to start out with aromasin at 12.5 once a week or Adex 1mg once a week. Just my two cents.

Welcome to the forum!

Welcome to the board.
Bloodwork is key.
Test only for the first time around.

 

[woodwalker1889]

Welcome need a test base for pretty much everything.

Welcome!
Back in the day test wasn’t even used in cycles. It was mostly deca and Dbol. I’ve gotten killer results from deca, tbol, and winstrol. It you want to get your feet wet with Anavar only then go for it.

 

[John]

Killer results are great, but what, you had zero problems by not using test, noticed nothing different after the fact?

 

[John]

And if so why are you using test now then?

 

[johnjuanb1]

I did Tren only for 2 years. I’ve never had issues not using test. Sex drive is always high.

 

[John]

So your recommending to do tren only for two years? Straight?

 

[johnjuanb1]

Because I’m old and it’s safest, assuming the dose is 100-200mg. The reason I’m not big on test is because when I first started using AAS, testosterone was all I could get. I did tons of test. I had tons of side effects too. Bad acne, testicular shrinkage, nausea, fatigue, etc. It was my fault though. I did 2 grams a week. I wanted to be a pro bodybuilder. This was from age 27-30. After that I had access to a lot of new toys: Thai dbol and anadrol, injectable Australian dbol and deca, winstrol and tbol from Moldova. The results were so much better on the new drugs. I always loved Pharma sustenon from Mexico, but after only using that and primoteston, plus cheap brovel test enan, I was ready for new things.
It is a myth, at least in my body, to think you need testosterone for sex drive.

 

[johnjuanb1]

I’m not recommending it. I’m saying that’s what I did. It was USA Tren/fina cattle implants I converted to inject. I grew faster than ever. I also felt like toxic hell.

 

[woodwalker1889]

Damn son I’d be scared to death lol

 

[John]

You see that explains it now, your reasoning, and what not, but based on what people were saying, and what you were saying, for @Bigdaddy could be very confusing

 

[johnjuanb1]

I did some real stupid things. I was obsessed with bodybuilding and didn’t care about my health. Things change when you see a lot of your friends dying.
When I started bodybuilding everyone said don’t use testosterone until you’ve exhausted all other alternatives with “safer” ratios like Anavar, turinabol, winstrol, primobolan. Thinking has changed completely since then to where everyone says testosterone is safest.
