Need advice for a dilemma
ad
I am currently 4 weeks into a cycle of VAR and things are going very well. Losing body fat and gaining muscle. I'm just trying to slim down for the summer. I was just looking for a little help and I'm finding it. My waist is thinner and I'm more muscular. I'm training light with high reps and I'm only taking 30mg/day.
Here is my problem. I have to go out of the country on business for a week and I probably will not be able to train and I don't want to carry "anything" with me having to go though Customs. I was going to try this cycle for 8 weeks and now at week 6, I'm going to have to take a 5 day break.
Any advice on how best to handle this?
Thanks.

OK. I did a friend request to Viking. A clean diet and high intensity cardio to lose weight? When did that start? Seriously, though, I do 4 different P90X routines per week. I mix it up.
But what are you shoveling into your mouth? Results with or without AAS start in the kitchen!!!
Maybe that's why it's working so well then. Egg white omelet in the morning, oatmeal and blueberry snack mid-morning. Chicken or fish and vegtables for lunch, protein bar mid afternoon, Protein shake with BCAA and green organic super-food powder for dinner, plus a handful of vitamins and other supplements throughout the day.
Maybe that's what's making this placebo I'm taking work so well. For the first time in a long time, the big bicep vein is showing up in my arm even when cold. Today I noticed a series of veins crossing over my quad muscle and I have some vein running over the front of my calf muscles. You know my original question was what do I do when I have to travel out of the country for a week, not that this wasn't working. You guys all came on here with the doomsday news.
The whole point is, why not try to shed the fat with DIET and HARD WORK first. Your going to keep fu*&ing around and screw yourself up with an oral only regimen. Regardless of what you think you may know, even a mild compound like Anavar will suppress natural production of testosterone which is why you should be running Test. The reason you aren't gettin any advice about what to do when you have to leave the country is bc nobody wants to give you advice to help you continue a "cycle" that is wrong!! I will repeat this again, AAS arent wonder drugs, these are serious compounds. Whatever fat you have didnt frigging get deposited there yesterday quit trying to take short cuts by trying to make it disappear overnight!!!!!
AnonYou aren't eating anywhere near enough ( yes even while cutting you have to EAT ) or even remotely correctly - you're eating more artificial food than real food WTF ARE YOU DOING.... Talk to Viking dude. You're using AAS like fucking hydroxycut how long did you do research for a total of 3 hours?? At 50+ the game changes so i'm not going to say what I would say in terms of long term sides to a younger guy, again talk to Viking.
I'm here. I've been taking all this in. In fact, prior to even posting, I read a bunch of similar posts and they all have pretty much the same theme. For clarity, I'm 52 years old. Been working out forever. I'm 6' 230 lbs. I'm not looking to get bigger or lift heavier weights. When you are my age and go heavy, all you get are aches and pains. I have 18 inch arms-hanging cold. I look like a linebacker (with love handles...lol). Those are what I am trying to do without. So far, the only side effects I have experienced are difficulty falling asleep, but once I do, I sleep like a log. I also experienced a horrible calf cramp one night that left me limping for a week. No decrease in libido. I'm taking Avena Sativa, Tribulus and Milk Thistle (for what they are worth. 30mg/day of VAR. So far, I have lost weight around my waist, my muscles are more defined, more vascularity, my neck is thicker and my rear deltoid has noticably grown. What would it be like if this was really working? I had my testosterone checked by a Urologist and he said I was in the normal range, not high but not low. I know that if go to a Low-T center, they will hook me up, they hook everybody up. I'm just trying to lose some bodyfat. The last guy I knew that was using test, got bigger all over and much uglier. His back looked like moon craters and I think he sweated Valvoline 10W40. What is so dangerous about only an oral cycle that would be made safer with test? I'm not trying to be a smart-ass, just genuinely asking.
My goals may be a lot different than many of yours. Side effects are one thing I do not want to experience.
Thanks for all the comments and advice.
Man you really need to take Viking up on his invitation to educate you via PM!! The use of AAS as a "fat burner" is reckless and dangerous. If all you are looking to do is shed bodyfat, focus on a CLEAN DIET high in protein with low/moderate complex carbs and secondly you need to incorporate some high intensity cardio into your workouts!! AAS are not wonder drugs!!!!!
Oral cycles are not good bro, PM me i will give you the low down in there i have a little exp were 50+ is concerned LOL....
You wont keep losing fat anyway mate... 4 weeks into it I see a slow down.
Ide just take the 5 days off (I dont carry either), then hit again when you get back. I agree with the others about running atleast a TRT dose of test. However,
you could have your reasons for not taking it (a third teste maybe!!).
I run all orals 4 weeks on 4 weeks off regardless just to give the ole liver a break.
Hope this helps mate! If your gona take stuff thru customs....
USE YOUR PRISON WALLET!! (jokes).
I sure hope you are not telling this guy who came here for advice and obviously doesn't really know what he is doing that oral only is ok?? Trt dose of test. Minimum .. and 4 weeks on 4 weeks off is not a good idea.. that doesn't leave time for post cycle and recovery.. I know var is mild but Jesus..
To the Brother who wrote the post, get in to the post cycle section of eroids, do some research..get off the var and don't just jump on it 5 days later.. research "testosterone replacement therapy"
X2 brother i hope he comes back to read this
IM BACK!! haha.
Dont worry guys, Im not posting any advice again. Im not gona get into an argument over it, its clears that what I say offends people and thats not why Im here...
Im gona stick to talking shit in the aussie lounge from now on
Come tan up with me some time viking ;)
I didnt mean you brother i meant the guy that posted lol but will still come over the oz lounge for a tan with you guys LMFOAooooo
HardLuck13Honestly, stop and when you get back order some Testosterone and run a proper cycle dude. Oral only cycles are dangerous and show a lack of proper research.
HardLuck13Ok just noticed your Intro man. Sorry if I came off rude about this. I asumed you were a youngin. At your age 52 I wouldn't worry about shut down for the chance of procreating. I would worry about sexual dysfunction. Test should be a staple for most men of your age. I do think you should seriously consider getting testosterone for TRT. I'm assuming at your age the chance having Low T is very high. Have you had any labwork on your test levels?
Dont look like hes coming back to hear any advice bro,he just popped a post up as fast has he popped his var lol good advice i get the feeling you have exp in these matters, keep it coming brother i like it
HardLuck13I have more experience with it than I wanted:-) Can't look back now though, just share the 411 to all my Eroids brothers. If it helps one member than hopefully I've earned a place here.
AnonWhy the hell is this down voted... I must fix...
Ahhhh things only get better round here tread has run of with my mrs and i thought he was a friend Huh now i get down voted oh well things can only get better they say lol dont worry about a thing bro.
