  1. Anavar for women is it really a good idea? It’s no secret steroids are geared for the guys. Breaking news!!! There is one out there that’s bucking the trend – anavar for women has become increasingly popular. Oxandrolone for women aka anavar, is the ladies choice for a number of reasons. #1 No Needles Required It’s available in oral form which means anavar for women is somewhat more appealing compared to the steroids you have to juice up. #2 Mild on the Sides In terms of androgenic ratings, anavar is only ranked as a 24 where testosterone is 100. Meaning. Anavar for women is not as harsh on the notorious side effects compared to other steroids for women. #3 Anavar Doesn’t Aromatise One of the main gripes with steroids is the negative impact caused by estrogens – aromatisation. One of main drawbacks is water retention or bloating. It gets better. Anavar is one steroid which doesn’t contain any estrogenic or progestin related setbacks. Bottom line No bloating with this baby and any gains are going to be pure defined muscle. #4 The “Girl” Steroid Men can take anavar, but they need to really high doses to get any benefits from it, which makes alternatives more appealing. However It’s often said, anavar for women is like what testosterone can do for men. And for good reason, it’s considered really effective for women even in very small quantities. This means anavar is a good choice in terms of great gains for minimal risk. #5 Improves Athletic Performance If upping your game is your aim, anavar fits the bill. It’s great for enhancing strength and endurance, helping you to smash your PB’s time and time again. #6 Great for Weight Loss For the body conscious out there, watching the weight is always top priority. Many women buy anavar to enhance their cutting cycles. “Is anavar really effective for women’s weight loss?” You won’t be disappointed. Anavar has some top benefits when it comes to weight loss, so let’s run through them. The benefits of anavar for females are: #1 Preserves Muscle One common trait that surrounds dieting is that when you try to blast fat you can’t avoid losing lean muscle too. Anavar puts pay to that. As your calorie intake depletes it makes sure your lean muscle doesn’t. It gets better Preserving muscle is also crucial for post work out recovery. Using anavar means you can get back on it faster. Bottom line Better weight loss results. #2 Burns Fat Faster It’s no secret women have a hard time shifting fat. Women taking anavar find it’s a handy weapon to combat this.

It’s banned and so will you be if you get caught with it in your system. #6 Great for Weight Loss For the body conscious out there, watching the weight is always top priority. “Is anavar really effective for women’s weight loss?” You won’t be disappointed.

Bottom line Better weight loss results. #2 Burns Fat Faster It’s no secret women have a hard time shifting fat. Women taking anavar find it’s a handy weapon to combat this issue. How? It trains your body to use the fat for energy more efficiently. And you don’t have to take my word for it. In fact, studies have reported that anavar is particularly great for shifting stubborn fat around the midsection. “What’s the best anavar dosage for women?” The ideal anavar dosage should be in the region of 10mg or lower per day. I shouldn’t see any reason why you should feel the need to go higher. However Having said that some women do taper up to a max of 20mg per day “What about cycle duration?” Keep the cycles short – 4 to 6 weeks and no longer. “Should anavar newbie’s do anything differently?” If you are a 1st timer to anavar there are a couple of things you can try to ease yourself into it. Split your dose up – take half in the morning and half later in the day. Don’t stack it to start, keep to an anavar only cycle to make sure you don’t get sides. “If I wanted to stack anavar what would be a good combo?” If you want try something different, anavar plus winstrol for women is a very good stack for cutting cycles. Winstrol is very similar to anavar, although it might be slightly harsher on the side effects it’s still considered one of the milder ones. One more thing. If you feel the need to cycle again make sure you leave a minimum of 4 weeks before you repeat. Anavar is far from what you would call an overpowering androgenic steroid. This is one reason many women give it the thumbs up. But here’s the kicker. When it comes to side effects, anavar for women isn’t entirely bulletproof. Meaning? You don’t want to become complacent – you can still experience them if you are not careful.Women taking anavar for too long or too much, often paves the way for side effects to creep in. Virulization side effects include: 2 Deepening of the voice Enlarged clitoris Irregular menstrual cycle/amenorrhea Abnormal facial and body hair growth (hirsutism) Breast reduction (mammary atrophy) And that’s not all. Other general side effects you can experience are: Acne Hair loss Increase in bad cholesterol Decrease in good cholesterol Toxic to the liver It goes without saying, you should not even think about anavar if you are pregnant, nursing or trying for a baby. So is anavar for women? Now that you’ve got the all the facts, it’s up to you to decide. Its my personal favorite ?

  4. Here's what you need to know... Testosterone replacement therapy is as much an art as it is a science.Sadly, many doctors are crappy artists. A "normal" testosterone reading means almost nothing. You need to have total testosterone, free testosterone, and bioavailable testosterone measured to get a reasonably accurate hormonal picture. Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) should be given based on symptoms instead of blood values. If you have no energy, gain fat easily, have trouble putting on muscle, have a low libido, and suffer from depression, you may need TRT. You have the choice of injections, gels, creams, pellets, or supplements in treating low T. However, testosterone injections give you the most bang for your buck. TRT causes very few negative side effects. TRT however, is contraindicated in men with existing prostate cancer. It can also cause an easily treatable condition where your blood thickens. Some benefits of TRT happen quickly, while others take years. Libido can improve within weeks, as can depression, but loss of body fat and an increase in muscle takes months to plateau while continuing on at a lesser pace for years. Are Your Balls Doing Their Job? So you just got the results of your blood test and your testosterone charts out at 600 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dl) of blood. You know that "normal" is somewhere between the range of 200 and 1100 ng/dl. So you breathe a sigh of relief and mentally give your balls a slap on their backs for a job well done in kicking out a reading of 600. But what does that number really mean? "Normal" Testosterone Means Zilch Unfortunately, that reading of 600 ng/dl means almost nothing. Testing for testosterone is rife with inconsistencies. Blood values of testosterone vary by the minute and the day. The only way to get a reasonably accurate reading would be to collect urine over a 24-hour period and have the lab use it to measure testosterone and its metabolites. Alternately, you could donate at least three blood samples from different times during the day. The lab would then pool the samples together and test that sample. But nobody does it that way. It's more expensive, more time consuming, and more inconvenient. Besides, the doctor would think you were nuts for even suggesting it because, really, who are you to question him, you hapless mortal, and why are you worried so much about your T levels? You should be content with vague blood readings, average testosterone levels, and at least quasi-functional balls like the rest of the sheep on the planet. And even if you did pool multiple blood samples, it still wouldn't tell you much. For one thing, even though the results might indicate that you have a normal level of testosterone, it might not be normal for YOU. Maybe you would've measured a high octane 1100 when you were in your twenties, but now you're sputtering along at a comparatively low octane 600 and spend your days Facebooking, or it's offline equivalent, scrap booking. The only way you'd know what was normal for you is if you'd established a testosterone baseline reading before you turned 30. But again, nobody does that. The Other Players: SHBG and Estradiol Then there's the issue of steroid hormone binding globulin, or SHBG. It's a glycoprotein that literally binds up the sex hormones, including, on average, about 60% of your testosterone, and that percentage keeps climbing as you grow older. The more SHBG you have, the more of your testosterone is bound up, leaving less of it free to do all the good stuff. So while your testosterone level may be 600, a good portion of it is locked up. It can be maddening. It's like having a genie in a bottle that you can't uncork. That's why, at the very least, when trying to determine your T levels, doctors should ask the lab for your total testosterone levels, your "free" testosterone levels, and your "bioavailable" testosterone levels so you can get a little bit better of an idea of what your situation is. But, you guessed it, nobody does that, at least very few conventionally trained doctors. And we can't forget about estrogen, or more specifically, estradiol levels in men. Your testosterone levels may read normal, but if estradiol levels are high, it could thwart testosterone in its efforts to make you the man you're supposed to be. As you can see, determining normal testosterone levels is a tricky beast. So, regardless of what your lab values are, and given the problematical nature of the lab tests, you have to instead rely on symptoms and the simple desire to be more than you are, hormonally speaking. The Symptoms of Low T Do you have less energy? Have you experienced an inexplicable increase in body fat and have trouble losing it? How about a loss of muscle tone and an inability to make progress in your workouts? Does your erection sometimes falter and wane? Do you think more about your lawn than lady parts? How about premature aging? Difficulty in concentration or memory? Depression? Or maybe a lack of "appropriate aggressiveness" where you don't take the initiative in matters of business or the heart? Maybe you're nervous, or always pissed off, ready to tear the head off the pudknocker in line in front of you who bought the last damn cinnamon roll? Any of these things could be indicative of low T, including, seemingly paradoxically, that last item on the list about undue anger levels. Historically, low testosterone, or hypogonadism, has largely been a problem of middle age and beyond. A 2006 study reported that 39% of men over 45 suffer from it. Another study said that while 13 million men in the U.S. may be deficient in testosterone, fewer than 10% get treatment for it. That's quite a chunk of human change, but consider that these statistics reflect only those men that were clinically deficient, i.e., their lab tests indicated they were low. It leaves out the millions – many who are young or relatively young – whose lab tests say they may be fine but based on their symptoms, are probably deficient. It also ignores the younger men who don't typically get their T levels tested. Millions of them are likely deficient, too. Not because of old age, but because of environmental estrogens, pituitary and testicle stifling chemicals in general, and probably even a soft, cushy, modern, convenience-filled low-testosterone lifestyle. In fact, it's speculated that the testosterone levels of today's average man are roughly half of what his grandfather's were, at a comparative point in life. Get the Right Lab Work Done Your first task is to find a progressive doctor, or at least one who isn't threatened by a patient who knows what he wants. Luckily, there are now plenty of low-testosterone treatment centers around the country. Unfortunately, many of them are in it for quick dough and they aren't likely to be as informed on the topic as you'd like them to be. All the more reason for you to take charge. Once you find the right doc, describe your symptoms, confess your desire to get testosterone replacement therapy, and ask for lab work. But make sure you get tests done in exactly the way specified below. (For instance, if you don't ask for a "sensitive assay" estradiol test for males, they're going to measure your estradiol the same as if you were a ballerina from the Bolshoi ballet suffering from menstruation problems.) Ask for this lab work: Testosterone, total Testosterone, bioavailable Testosterone, free Estradiol (sensitive assay) Steroid Hormone Binding Globulin Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Luteinizing Hormone (LH) Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) Complete Blood Count (CBC) Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Blood Chemistry Panel Metabolic Panel These tests will give a fairly good baseline reading of where you stand so that when you have follow-up blood testing done three to six months later, you can see if you're on the right dosage and whether you're suffering any insidious negative side effects. What Are Your Choices For T Replacement? If you test out as deficient in testosterone, or if you have symptoms of low testosterone, you likely want to do something about it. There are definitely over-the-counter supplements designed for this very purpose. (Alpha Male® and Tribex® are the most potent.) And while effective, they're best used by healthy younger men who want a boost in T levels for bodybuilding purposes. They probably aren't the best choice for men who are clinically low and who've made the choice to undergo what's usually a lifetime commitment to testosterone replacement therapy, or TRT. 1. Testosterone Injections Testosterone injections are the creme de la creme of TRT. While it's true that testosterone gels (see below) create a more natural ebb and flow of testosterone, injections, provided they're administered properly, give you the most muscle-building, libido boosting, rock-your-world bang for the buck. You essentially have two injectable choices in America, testosterone enanthate and testosterone cypionate. The half lives of these esters differ slightly, but it's not that big a deal, especially if your dosing is adequate and you've chosen a suitable injection method and schedule. For most men, 100 mg. a week of either ester is enough for effective TRT. However, some men need less and some men need more, possibly up to 200 mg. a week. Beyond that amount and you're pretty much on a mild bodybuilding steroid cycle instead of testosterone replacement. Even if you're injecting weekly (always on the same day), you still might suffer a bit of a low-testosterone lull as you get further away from injection day. To remedy this, many men split their dosage in half and inject twice a week instead of once a week. Doing so keeps your blood levels of testosterone fairly stable. And while many men micromanage their hardest workouts to coincide with the peaks and troughs of their TRT, it's largely an unnecessary battle, especially when you're giving yourself two injections a week. Injections given that close together ensure that you're pretty much always riding a peak. Additionally, you might want to consider subcutaneous injections rather than intramuscular injections. Dr. John Crisler, noted testosterone guru, insists that sub-q is much more effective, so much so that 80 mg. of testosterone injected under the skin is equal to 100 mg. injected intramuscularly. Plus, he adds, you don't poke your muscle bellies full of thousands of holes over the course of a lifetime of TRT. All you do is take a pinch of skin on your glute, thigh, or even belly, and inject a tiny needle into the fold at either a 45-degree or 90-degree angle. Fully depress the plunger, release the skin, and you're good to go. Whether Crisler is right about the potency of sub-q injections isn't known for sure, but it has the ring of truth and it's worth a try. 2. Testosterone Gels As mentioned above, testosterone gels provide a much more natural androgen rhythm and there's probably some argument to be made that mimicking the body's natural rhythms is the way to go. However, many believe it doesn't have the same bang for the testosterone buck as injectable esters. Besides, gels have their drawbacks. You should only apply gels to freshly showered skin. You should refrain from swimming or working up a sweat for at least an hour. Furthermore, you can't, under any circumstances, let a child or female (especially a pregnant one) come into contact with the treated area until it's absolutely dry. If you do decide to use gels, you must apply them once (or in some cases, twice) a day. Don't use your hands to apply the gel, though. Any gel on the hands doesn't soak in to the bloodstream. It's like applying gel onto an old catcher's mitt, which isn't very permeable. Instead, squeeze the gel onto your forearms and rub them together. That way you won't waste any. 3. Everything Else Just about everything else, including creams, pellets, and sublingual drops, isn't much worth discussing. Granted, creams can be effective, but they're messy and they don't penetrate the skin as well as gels. Pellets and drops, however, are either ineffective or impractical and make accurate dosing all but impossible. There are, however, other protocols that have proven to be effective in treating secondary hypogonadism (where the hypothalamus, for whatever reason, isn't telling the pituitary to produce LH and FSH, which in turn cause the testicles to produce T), like selective estrogen receptor modulators, or SERMs. Two of the most commonly known ones are Clomid (clomiphene) and Nolvadex (tamoxifen). They simply trick the pituitary into producing LH, which then tells the testicles to get to work. Exact protocols are beyond the scope of this article, though. TRT, Your Testicles, and HCG One of the big fears about undertaking TRT is infertility and shrinking balls. While TRT does reduce the number of sperm that a man produces, it'd be foolish to think that your replacement dosage has rendered you safe from becoming a daddy. In many cases, though, the testicles will shrink and sperm count will drop, but these effects are easily prevented by concurrently administering human chorionic gonadotropin, or HCG. The drug mimics LH so that your testicles don't shut down. They'll still produce sperm and they'll still produce testosterone, so shrinkage won't occur. Additionally, there are LH receptors throughout the body, and HCG attaches to these system-wide receptors. Anecdotally, at least, this causes men on TRT and HCG therapy to report feeling pretty damn good. HCG is administered subcutaneously via an insulin needle and it's easily available to your doctor through various compounding pharmacies around the country. The generally recommended starting dose is about 100 iu a day, working up to higher daily doses or, alternately, 250 or 500 administered twice a week. The Potential Negative Side Effects of TRT There are a small number of bad things that can happen when on TRT. One is only an issue if you have prostate cancer before starting TRT therapy. Note that there's absolutely no evidence – even after researchers have compiled thousands of studies and patient histories – that TRT can cause prostate cancer. However, for some reasons that we don't totally understand yet, TRT can make prostate cancer worse. That's why it's important to have digital rectal exams (DREs) every year while continuing to monitor prostate specific antigens (PSA). TRT can also cause a condition called polycythemia, which simply means that the testosterone therapy has caused your body to produce too many red blood cells. Instead of freely flowing through your veins, your blood gets thick and spurts along like the stuff that comes out of the Dairy Queen soft serve machine and it can understandably cause heart attacks and strokes when it clogs up your plumbing. That's why it's important to monitor both hemoglobin and hematocrit. If hemoglobin exceeds 18.0, or hematocrit exceeds approximately 50.0, you either need to adjust your dosage of testosterone, donate some blood to the Red Cross, or submit yourself for what's called therapeutic phlebotomy (a simple blood draw in a doctor's office). What About Gyno and Heart Attacks? The much-dreaded gynecomastia is almost unheard of in males receiving TRT. Gynecomastia, or the growth of male breast tissue, is seen almost exclusively in men taking pro-bodybuilder levels of testosterone (1,000 to 3,000 mg. a week) or testosterone analogs. Hair loss is a possibility, but it seems to stabilize in your 30's. If you've made it that far without losing your hair, it's highly doubtful that TRT will make things any worse. All of the rest of the stuff you may have heard about testosterone causing heart attacks or anything else bad is horribly, horribly wrong. If anything, men with low testosterone levels are much more prone to a host of maladies, including heart disease, diabetes, dementia, and pretty much everything else usually associated with old age, death, or decrepitude in males. What to Expect from Testosterone Replacement Therapy Testosterone does cool stuff to the body, but it usually doesn't happen overnight. While you might start feeling pretty good, almost elated, after starting therapy, the various physiological benefits take varying amounts of time. Sexual benefits. These kick in fully at about week 3 and plateau between weeks 19 and 21. Depression. If it's a factor, depression often starts to lift by about week 6, but maximum benefits take longer. Anxiety, sociability, and stimulation of the cerebral cortex (the part that controls attention and even creativity). These start to improve at about week 3, plateauing about 3 months after beginning therapy. Insulin sensitivity. Starts to increase in just a few days, with effects becoming evident (less body fat) in 3 to 12 months, but often continuing for years. Increased muscularity. This is highly dependent not only on having adequate testosterone levels, but genetics, diet, lifestyle, and training. However, generally speaking, testosterone therapy can positively affect muscularity in as little as a month, peak at about a year, and then continue at a slower pace for some time. The good life. And then there's the intangible benefit known as life enjoyment. It's what you often get when you combine all of testosterone's benefits, the physiological and the psychological, into one. It can't really be measured, but it's oh-so valuable. Just make sure you find a doctor that understands that.

  6. I'll chime in too. I only use d-bol pre training. I don't know if i'm sensitive to it or just lucky but i've had good results as low as 15mg and don't usually go over 30mg. Like many have said, everyone is different. I've heard people have great results with 15mg dbol + 30mg anadrol. Haven't done it myself but i'm sure eventually i'll give it a go. I take my d-bol 2 hours before training with food otherwise it gives me heartburn.

  14. I pinned Genetec tren ace on Sunday and got the cough for the very first time.. Lasted about 30 seconds.. but wow! I've read up on lower test/ higher tren cycles and how people experience the benefits of tren without some of the sides... Or lesser sides. I just added tren to the back end of my test-e/Mast-e cycle. I've only done tren-e before but I can tell a definite difference between the two. I'm already experiencing "tren-somnia", and night sweats. All the things I felt about 6 to 8 weeks in on tren-e. So I've been running 250mg/wk of test-e and 400mg/wk of mast-e. I've added 100mg tren-a EOD with 50mg of anavar ED and this week switched the test-e to test-p. In about 2 weeks I'll switch from anavar to wintrol for the remainder of my cycle. I'm using all different labs really. All ones I trust. I'm using the Genetec tren-ace i got a few months back. Love their products. Out of the labs I've used, their near the very top.

  18. Definitely pre-workout for me and I only took it EOD on big workout days. I wouldn't be able to take 60mg and work out...the back pumps would make it impossible. I found 20mg was good....40mg was better. Everyone is different though....only way to find out is play around and see what is best for you.

  22. I gave up on a smooth shave years ago. I use the same hair trimmer on my face that I use on my head, like a big barbershop style one, on the metal with no clip on comb height thing. It shaves me down to what day-2 after a smooth shave would be, and that works well for me. The only time ill ever smooth shave now is if i know in advance that ive got our kids looked after for a few hours so i can go down on my wife for a while, cuz I love it. The stubble tickles and she wont let me chow down unless I clean up. I do remember having waterproof 3-rotor electric shaver. Cant remember what brand, but i was contemplating getting another cuz you can shave in the shower and i did like it. I just dont know where it went after we moved into this house. A quick search shows me that a Phillips Norelco waterproof shaver looks like what i had. Amazon has it. Hmmm...

  23. ^that's a great post. If the meniscus is torn in a way that it's causing issues it's very likely the deca won't just magically heal it. The same goes for a torn ACL. It's almost like saying you cut your arm off and lets add some deca to help it heal. You physically need surgery to make an adjustment. For meniscus it depends exactly how it was torn or what is going on. Once things are surgically repaired I would personally consider adding in some deca to help for possible reduced inflammation and collagen synthesis. Plus reducing muscle atrophy which will help with stability while it's weak. Until you get surgery, take it easy and don't make things worse.

  24. I have used about a dozen different products from Trans, over the course of 3 cycles. i didn’t have a single disappointment. The orals were smooth with some PIP as to be expected but nothing that interfered with my ability to move around at work or workout. I didn’t have a single broken or crumbled pill from the 5 different orals I used. Solid lab, no complaints; every product was solid and I like that the orals come in bottles of 100.

  25. Deca or HGH won't heal a ripped ACL. Whether it's partially torn or fully separated, steroids/hgh simply will not magically reconnect tissues or grow them back to initial strength. There's obvious supporting research on use for muscular degeneration diseases, and joint repair of existing damage, but never expect to go from a moderately/fully destroyed joint to a brand new or minimal one. Just doesn't work like that. So ACL tears come from a typical plant and twist style motion, where usually the femur (thigh bone) doesn't move and the tibia translates forward (anterior) and in a twisting motion it rips it from the bony insertion on what's called the tibial plateau. When this happens, imagine your knee will shift forward like a wooden drawer. It becomes unstable, and as it slides forward you lose ability to contract your quads and hamstrings and you fall...worse case usually breaking a bone. Typically, meniscus injuries happen as well as medial collateral ligament injuries in conjuction to a tear given the way the mechanism happens. Until you see a surgeon for a consult, simple low load quad exercises like leg press, split squats, leg extensions, curls, stiff legged and romanian deads are your best bet. Things where you can control the weight without lock outs and being able to control the time under tension. Balance board exercises from side to side, pool running, bosu ball balance, lateral band side step work, cutting exercises on a ladder all need to be done to increase the motor control and dynamic stability of your knee, as if the ligamentous control is no longer there you need to use your muscle control to stabilize. Ice if it's throbbing and hot, otherwise heat/hot tub/bath for blood flow. Use NSAID's only as necessary. The gear will help of course with muscle growth and prevent atrophy with a damaged knee but it won't do crap to build dynamic (movement) stability to keep the bone in place as you move.
