Hey Everyone, my name is Francis and I just completed my first anavar cycle. Hopefully these results inspire others to try a cycle if they are on the fence.

Age:24
Height: 5'7
Starting Weight: 135
Finish Weight: 142
Starting body fat: 17%
Finish body fat: 13%
Cycle length: 10 weeks
Dose: 10mg split in half twice daily for the first 5 weeks and the. 12.5mg split twice daily the next 3 weeks. I finished with 20mg split twice daily the last 2 weeks.

Background: I used to run track in college and now that I don't have to worry about doping controls I wanted to push my body and see what some assistance would do. I don't compete anymore so am mainly using these cycles to try and increase my strength and gain muscle. My goal is to hit 150lbs at 12% body fat.

**i want to state that I had a high level of fitness starting this and was a former d1 track athlete. Others can get similar benefits and might even have greater self improvements relative to their starting point.

Week 1- the var kicked in around day 5. I was doing deadlifts and instead of fatiguing at 10 I could just push out a few more reps. So nothing crazy, but just a subtle push.

Weeks 2-4: were about the same. I just simply had an extra 5-7%which really adds up. I didn't tell my training partners initially I was taking var until that week. That's were I had my biggest jump. I think having those extra few percent compounded into some serious strength gains.t the other people I trained with started with similar strength and stamina. I was all of a sudden lifting 45-70lbs more on squats and deads and 5-15lbs more in upper body lifts. I was also getting noticeably more vascular in the forearms and biceps and my abs were really showing. I had to tell them I was having assistance lol.

Side effects: minor back acne and slightly more aggression. I was a little testy.

Weeks 4-5: no significant strength gains to report, but my aerobic capacity was shockingly strong. The first 3-4weeks I focused on hypertophy doing full body weights of 10-20 reps. Week 5 I backed off on the weights and added some HIT training. Hill sprints, intervals on the stationary bike, and one longer run of 45 min to try and lean out more. Again nothing crazy, I just had that extra hill rep in me or could not be about 10yards ahead of my training partners.

Weeks 6-8: continued trying to lean out. I wasn't weighing my self but could notice muscles showing that I hadn't seen since college. Specifically my arms and abs were getting more vascular.

Side affects: I upped the dose during this time and mainly noticed an increase in sex drive. I didn't notice that much the first 5 weeks but wow, It was almost too much especially for a single girl. I could see this process being great couples for a change of pace.

Weeks 9-10: I upped the dose to 20mg with an emphasis on less reps but heavier weight and eliminated any cardio. This was definitely another break through. By the end of week 9 I had so much energy. My sleep was definitely compromised. I was antsy throughout the day but in the gym I had so much to give. I only lifted 4 days both weeks but did daily doubles on those days. For example I would do 8(3squats or 10(2 deads) pull-ups with as little weight assistance as possible but to still do 10(4) in the morning I woukd do lifts incorporating multiple muscle groups but heavy and to failure with lots of rest. In the evening I would kettlebells focusing on doing 20-30 minute workouts with little rest such as doing 5 sets of 10 swings, rest 10sec, 20 swings, rest 20, then continue that pattern to 40 and start over. I was definitely trashed by the end of the day, but var gives you this ability to recover between sessions. It's pretty cool.

Side affects: extreme sex drive,increased back acne, horse voice/cracking interminently through the day. I was essy to piss off. I was more aggressive as well. For example I was getting home supplies and a man was trying to help me carry some lumber and kept saying I'm fine and he kept insisting to help and ignoring me. Finally I barked out at him saying that I'm strong and don't need his help. Nothing too crazy but I was just easily agitated. I have to say 20mg was too much for the first cycle. I had lab work done and had elevated testosterone(285mg/mol) that's about 4-5 times higher than normal. The strength gains were definitely large but not with the side affects.

Conclusion: I was happy with my strength gains and plan another cycle. I gained about 8lbs of muscle and lost about 1.5lbs of fat
