Please don’t do anavar for that long
Your lipids are going to be fucked up by your first blood work and you are going to be managing that shit your whole cycle. Would cut the Var.
I heard that var isnt so bad on your bloodwork especially at only 20mgs, you think I really should take it out and keep it for a future cycle?
Var really fucks with your lipids.
Are you taking something to support your lipids?
Yes currently taking hella supplements/vitamins fo organ health, lipids, and etc.
It is fine to ramp up your test. You’ll want bloodwork at 4 week mark to see how your levels look and if it makes sense to up your dose.
Var is fine at the start. It doesn’t mess with your liver but does fuck up your lipids.
Run HGH at 2IU and maybe bump up.
Reta is pretty awesome. I don’t think you’ll have to bump it up that fast. In fact, you might not need to at all.
Perfect, getting bloods this Thursday and ill asses from there. As for the hgh, ill start at 2 iu every night and poteintally stay there just for more cost effective. As for Reta, should I just stay around 1-2 mg for the total of my cycle? Its great for insulin sensitivity which I heard hgh is pretty insulin resistance after a long period of use.
It is up to your response to Reta. If you want more food suppression, maybe up it.
Depends on your goals.
Why the Var and HGH? If you really wanna use HGH start lower, like 1-2iu. The Test and Reta alone is enough for a first cycle. Also did you do any blood work before you ever even began taking test, are you going to do blood work again in 2 more weeks?
Yes! I got bw done before, getting it don’t actually next week on Thursday and obviously after my cycle / pct. I threw in hgh because I’ve been having a hard time sleeping and struggle with stomach fat. I have shredded arms, with veins all across my quads, arms, chest, and even lats, but still carry an excess fat on my stomach to the point of little to none abs. I heard hgh + Reta would be a good option for fat loss, should I maybe take hgh out of just start off Low?
Start HGH at .5-1iu then go up .5 every 2-3 wks I would've started test at 400-500mg wk an stayed there the entire 12 wk cycle so it will stable out your blood work I don't teeter up and down unless I'm trying to fix something with woodwork do you have an AI in hand and your PCT you need to have all that on hand before starting cycle
Yes, currently using arimidex and Nolvadex for pct, haven’t had to use the ai yet tho, should I start at 2iu for hgh and stay at 300 mg test? Or can I still bump it up like I plan on doing? I would’ve started higher but I wanted to make sure at 300 I didn’t get any major side effects, currently I feel normal with no real problems
Arimidex is a ai
How old are you bud
Yeah I know arimidex is a ai, currently 28
Good luck
I wanted to ask him this on my first comment in this thread, but you know that could be incriminating evidence lmao
