I split my var into 2 doses 20mg in the morning and 20mg in the evening. My pumps are always insane feeling. Definitely a difference vs taking it an hour before workout only.

The only oral I have ever felt actually improves a workout if taken before it is Dbol assuming you spend a few hours loading up with carbs and fluid beforehand. Even then after about 45 minutes it soons starts causing bad acid reflux during training. I think they are better after training like Mak says as they are effectively a muscle recovery tool.

Var isn't one of those compounds that hits you hard after you take it like dbol or drol, which are great pwo. Split it like you have been doing and just take one of your doses pwo.

I use it split twice throughout the day to keep blood serum levels stable, which seems to be what the prevailing wisdom would suggest is optimal. As it so happens, my second dose is often right before a training session & I do see some augmentation in my pumps and strength, but the pumps can be problematic. Like, abdominal cramps from working abs that feel like your abdominal wall is about to tear open in the center. The unpredictable cramping can pop up in your calves or chest or lower back. Places you haven't had to deal with cramping really ever before. I would imagine taking the entire daily dose right before training would lend itself to more of that.
