Old Ladies and Anavar

:rolleyes:

----
Anyway, I totally understand where you're coming from though.
I have also an obsessive personality and it's really hard for me to break patterns. I have this really awesome routine involving avanar and the anxiety that will come from being off cycle is gonna be terrible. I'm already coaching myself.

Eman has a great point too. After a break, the gains will be even better!

Do it for the gainz;)
 
The gainz!!! True. Thanks everyone for your input. I do appreciate it. One thing I was looking forward to off cycle is the the bloat that anavar positively doesn't give you but I have going away for a bit. Maybe a small break will be useful. One day at a time......

I definitely have had a lot of random water retention going on throughout my cycle, too. It could be diet related but even during days that I am eating clean and drinking a ton of water, I still have the bloat going on.

Omg. I'm so glad I'm not alone. I mean, I'm sorry you experienced it too but from everything I've read it's "impossible" for anavar to make you bloated. Even though I know I was. Same as you I eat clean (mostly) and drink a ton of water. I was coming off a bulk tho so I thought maybe it was just me and I wasn't used to seeing myself that big. Happy said at day 10 she started to get/feel really lean. So maybe that's what's around the corner. It sure would be nice if that was the case!
 
You're right. Eman. I probably will have to force myself to do this. I tend to get ocd about certain things - unfortunately not cleaning - and need to break that shit. So difficult.

It's tempting to stay on but it's important to remember the body won't continue to respond like it"s doing right now. Muscle growth is dependent upon a lot of complex biochemical processes that need to occur in order to create an anabolic environment, but those biochemical processes won't continue indefinitely. It's similar to how a child grows in spurts.

Personally speaking, I've always achieveved most of my gains before weeks 8 - 10, and anything beyond that was pretty insignificant and not worth the risk of prolonging altered lipids, increased BP, etc., or for you, increased risk of virilization.

My advice is take a break and your next cycle will more successful as a result.

The bloat is real. Left is a couple of months ago and right was this morning. Zero change. Zero. I've whacked my carbs to around 100g/day. When I dip under my energy just dips too low and I am at risk for stampeding the kitchen....Macros at 140P, 123C (although I'm usually around 100 and make up for it in P), 39F.IMG_0285.PNG IMG_0285.PNG

thanks :) I'm pretty tatted up, strategically. This guy took about 8.5 hrs. 2 sessions. Always planning the next one too.

I'd like to get a nice back piece but I'm too much of a pussy to commit to it. I think I'll do one on my inner bicep possibly though.

Love the placement of your tattoo. That is hot! I want one there as well but I'm too scared because I heard the pain really sucks in that spot.

It all hurts tbh. LOL...the last tattoo I got was on my calf. Covers the entire thing. It was the first time I wasn't half naked in a tattoo parlor. It was supposed to be one of the less painful areas to get a tattoo. I could NOT stand it. I squirmed, which I never do, enough for the artist to chastise me....I think you just gotta psych yourself up for it. Ribs hurt for sure, but maybe because you're lying there like roadkill that you just surrender to it. You're completely in their hands. With my calf I could have stood up and ran/limped away! :) My next one will be right above or below my elbow. Thinking of a small old-timey barbell. Arms are a thing for me. I know nowdays visible tattoos on a woman don't mean anything and I really like the way it looks! but it's a taboo thing I grew up with. We'll see.

Anavar not causing bloat is a myth. It bloats my gf, and it bloats her female trainer who is a pro. Her trainer switched her over to equipoise and super low dose test, and it worked way better than anavar
 
Winding down my var cycle. Switched gyms this week too. DL sucked. New bars tearing up my hands but PR today on squats. 205 for 3. This is the first I've broken into the 200s and I'm pretty pleased with myself. :)
How much longer before the end of your cycle? Congrats on the new PR!
