So I’ve made a couple adjustments to the diet…more protein, etc. & have almost completely decided to up the test to about 400 mg a week (I was thinking 125 mg [0.5 ml of Sust] eod), what would be the best/most effective way to dose 400-500 mg of test/wk? I came up with .5 ml eod based on fact that the shortest acting ester in Sust holds a length of 48 hrs…
I’m still torn on the Winstrol vs. Anavar debate almost solely based on cost at this point…from what I can gather the Anavar has very few/if any side effects, i.e. easier on your joints, hairline, liver etc. but is not quite as efficient in really cutting you up as Winstrol, however the strength gains can be just as good. The Winstrol appears to be a little more effective albeit a little more harsh…the tendon pain is something that is worrisome and I’ve read a pretty much equal number of articles/experiences saying that it caused tendon pain/didn’t caused tendon pain/pain was extremely manageable-hardly noticeable; there doesn’t seem to be a clear cut general consensus…for me the Anavar is just about twice as much cost-wise as the Winstrol so that is something that I have to take into account as well…
How about the supplement regime? Should anything be changed when I do cycle? Pretty much everything I take is for joints and or is a green supplement…[/quote]
I know cost is an issue. I can’t advise you on that but I would really say for a guy involved in both high impact and high risk sports–especially one where you can get a joint torn apart if you don’t tap in time, Winny is the VERY LAST thing you want messing up your tendons for jiujitsu. At least for your first cycle. If at some point in the future you want to mess with it, fine, but break into things with the fewest possible variables to screw things up.
Also, you will still be getting lots of help with your leaning out the way you are doing things now. You have an extremely hard training schedule + a very very clean diet. I would not worry too much. If you really wanted something known for “leaning you out” I would suggest Masteron. But honestly, I don’t think it fits your goals.
Supp regimen looks fine. I might look into some surge workout fuel to drink during your marathon jiujitsu workouts, but everything you have looks fine. Nothing stupid. ED pin is better, but harder to measure accurately at your current dose, so EOD would probably work just fine as well and I wouldn’t worry. The difference is between “perfect” and “not quite perfect” so no biggie.[/quote]
So I’ve decided on the Anavar…even if I have to wait another week or so to start the cycle…I figured I’ve waited this long what’s another week or two and on top of that I watched a couple of videos on the damage Winstrol can do to your tendons, albeit it was long-term abuse, but still the thought of something being that taxing on my tendons is very worrisome. I am going to start on the peptides as well which I have been doing a lot of reading and can’t seem to find a single negative piece on them…coupled with the Sust and Anavar I believe that I’ll have a really good first cycle that will have little to no side effects, great strength gains w/out hindering my endurance and give me the look that I’m wanting…
Not to be too vain either but my brother is an avid Crossfitter, one of those “if you aren’t with us you’re against types”…I went home for Xmas, did some Crossfit stuff and absolutely smoked him (which I attribute more to the way I train vs. the way he does) but I really want to have that “what the fuck have you been doing” look when I go home at the end of June for a wedding…I told him that I think Crossfit is a great workout but it’s not sport specific and will never give me the look I want…you know the one…the deep cuts, big arms, tapered waist, and vascularity like you wouldn’t believe…
So I’ve all but decided on the 125 mg of Sust eod, probably 60 mg Anavar, plus the peptides will do everything that I’m wanting…
With the Anavar what is a good dosage for the first cycle? I’ve read that a lot of people go anywhere from 50-80 mg ed so I figured that 60 mg ed would be a good dosage…also is that good to do for the full 10 weeks?
Thanks for all of the solid advice guys…I really appreciate it.
