+ 1 Anavar 5mg cycle for Strength?

ad

Hello. I've read that doing 5mg of anavar won't do much but wondering is it worth doing 5mg for strength and endurance factor? I'm a female and have the concern of getting noticeable side effects such as oily skin, break outs, agitation, unfocused (any of this would not be favorable for what I do workwise, or at home). I'm not doing this for a cut or bulk (I am in a slight calorie surplus though). Certainly, I could bump it up a bit if no sides, but just wanted to know is it worthwhile being on a low dose for 6 wks (my goal is to get the strength to build up lower body more; upper body is not my concern). Thanks!

Just wondering, did you happen to lean out when you did the cycle again? I am not using this to cut because I don't want to actually lean out (maybe the abs more so but no where else since I am fairly lean as it is). I like the fuller look of muscles if that makes sense.

I'm pretty sure that you will see no effects from 5mg.
I'm not an expert for female cycles but I know a few fitness females they run between 10 and 25mg.

My wife has done three cycles and the first one she started with 10mg per day. She got bloating and water retention in the first week and stopped. A few weeks later she started with 5mg and then stepped up to 10mg per day in week two. This seemed to work for her and the only sides have been increased libido and some mild irritation. I am not giving you advice just relaying her experience. Everyone is different though.

8 weeks. She leaned out nicely but didn’t lose any wieght. For her that was frustrating but she gained muscle and lost fat and def got stronger on all of the big lifts. Her diet has always been great and she doesn’t drink. She also does a lot of cardio. The var really worked for her but she had everything else dialed in for years before she tried it.

If your worried about sides I wouldn’t start. Unfortunately there’s no way of knowing until you try the compound. That’s a mild dose but some females get hit harder with sides than others. Screwing with your natural hormones for a dose that probably woulnt yield much is not wise imo.
