So today is the last day of my cycle.

My weight has held at 58kgs.

deadlift is now at 100kg for 1rm
squat is now at 67.5kg for 1rm
Bench is now at 45kg for 1rm (needed more time and spotters)
OHP is now at 30kg for 1rm

In my view the cycle has help me put on lean muscle mostly on my upper body but I can see some benefits to my lower body.

It has shown me what my body would look like if I dropped the body fat lower. e.g. I'd have V cut lines on my abs.

The whole cycle I have been eating slightly above TDEE or on TDEE.

Already decided that next time I run a var cycle I will be doing it below TDEE but for the next 8-10 weeks I want to carry on eating and building what I can e.g. a v-taper. This to allow me to build up my calories so I can cut at a decent level.

The side of the cycle were very little
Headaches over 2-3 days at the start
The odd one or two spots
Thinking about sex all the time between week 2 to about 5

For confirmation I did not taper off but stayed at 10mg for week 8.

While I'll never recommend someone to cycle/take steroids (you have to do you own research and make your own mind up) I have no concerns about doing another cycle of var at the same level but over a longer period 10 weeks max for myself.

For upper body nothing much has changed since I posted these:

On a side note happy to accept FR requests but please let me know why as I always seem to get an influx when I post semi-naked photos (my bad I know but I do see them as progress shots)

Sorry guys. Been a bit lack updating this cycle as just been going the updates on the above cycle log

** Week 7 **

No movement on my weight which is still steady.

Been feeling good on the cycle and again nothing new to report however then I've found a taste for dandelion tea this week.

Week 8 I'll do a full write up and upload a end of cycle photo but will add more into the picture section of the site.

More then happy that after a 10 week break I'll be doing another cycle. Next cycle will be in calorie deficit because this cycle has shown that I would be able to get abs lines and v cut at the expensive of my boobs

** Day 4 **

Please to say the headache have passed so I think my body is getting used to the Var.
Workout are going well to. Not notice any extra strength gains but it is only day 4.
Will up to 5mg morning/night from Monday onwards

No other sides so far other than headaches with have now passed.

** DAY 2 **

So not much to report other then mild headaches so I've upped my water intake from 4L to 5L plus all the green tea I am drinking. They tend come around a couple of hours after I've taken my tab. I knew this was a potential side effect but I am hoping I wont be suffering from them after a week or so once my body adjusted.

If I am still suffering come Monday I'll get my BP checked when I am at the doctors.

Oh another wonderful note my work mates got me 6 cans of tuna, some sliced salmon, box of eggs and some green powders for my Birthday. Love that my work mates taken notice of my lunches
