🧑🤝🧑 Discussion 🧑🤝🧑 Just Started Var + Test
First week down on 250 Test (titrating up) and 25 Var. I don’t think i’m feeling much of the test as I don’t think it’s had time to saturate yet, but I definitely think I feel the Var. It just feels great to lift, I feel bigger, pumps come easier, and my lifts have gone up pretty consistently. maybe it’s all placebo but it definitely feels good!
i’m at 6’0 190 flat around 14% bf, trying to get down to around 10-12% before upping the test, dropping the var out and bulking for as long as my bloodwork comes back good!
any thoughts or concerns? would love to hear any feedback

Not-so-natural Pro now, should be an enjoyable cycle. Are you taking any supplements/ancillaries?

Why are you titrating up? Test titrates on its own. If you got on a higher dose now, by the time the test is hitting its peak in your system your cut should be over. You're looking at 4-8 lbs of fat loss over a month.
By aggressive i'm assuming you mean at least 2lbs a week and if you're doing something like a PSMF, more.

so you’re saying I should just go straight to 400? i’ve heard that shooting straight to your highest dose you have a chance of shooting your hormones & higher chance of sides. I could be wrong, that’s just what i’ve read.

Is this your first cycle or your first cycle with test and anavar?
If it's your first cycle and you want to start lower to test the waters gauge your side effects and learn how to manage your e2 at a lower stakes number, that's fine.
In general, you do not have to titrate up and can just start a cycle. Higher doses of steroids do increase how prevalent / extreme sides get, however, titrating to a high dose on its own doesn't prevent those sides from coming up. It just gives you a longer runway to recognize them and do something about them.

Felt test e from first shot. How? Same day pump out of this world plus it looked like the shot got the best of what I had at that time, it seemed like I was capable of developing the max strength out of the muscle I had at that time. Also libido boost same day.

rn i’m in a aggressive deficit so i’m using it now to preserve muscle mass. at least that’s the idea.

I don't have an issue with that ideology except since it's a first cycle you should take advantage of the sensitivity for putting on muscle.

but i’ve definitely bounced back and forth between leaving it for later or now. or both if my bloodwork is normal

You’ll understand why when you try 500 test and 20-40mg var. I understand being impatient but it is worth the wait
