Hi everyone,
I've been searching the net for months now for solid info on Anavar (oxandrolone), for women and couldn't really find what I was looking for, so I thought I'd make a log for those who are curious and are looking into their first cycle.
A bit about me - been training for 3-4 years now and I competitively powerlift. My main goal with this cycle isn't aesthetic, but to maintain, and possibly even increase strength while dieting. I bulked to 170+lbs, then dropped to <160lbs naturally over the course of several weeks, and was planning to stay natural up until my strength started dropping. I've had easy access to this stuff for a while now but was hesitant to hop on without getting lean first, but as a competitor I'm doing what I can do stay on top of my game.
I'm currently taking liquid anavar at 5mg ed, broken up into two doses, 2.5mg in the morning, and 2.5mg at night. Today marks the end of my first week. I'm also taking liquid clen at 40mcg two days on/two days off, although I prefer EC which I take on my off days. I was running liquid t3 at a low dose - 12.5mcg for a week or so, then I bumped it up to 25mcg, and now I'm at 40mcg. I'm being conservative with the anavar because I'm very wary of putting hormones in my body, I want to make sure I'm doing things relatively safely. I've played with the clen dose, and although I'm not the biggest fan (I don't think it does much), I'm keeping the dose at a steady 40mcg.
So far I don't feel anything physically from the var, but it's way too early to tell. I had one giant breakout on my back last week (I never break out on my back), but that went away and I haven't seen anything since. When I started lifting more intensely about a year ago, I started to get breakouts on my face near my jaw line which is hormonal, but now that I'm taking anavar I've noticed a DECREASE in face breakouts. This is very unusual, so I'm going to keep track of this and see how things go.
One thing I will note is that I'm very emotional. I've been getting upset easily, it's almost as if I'm in a state of mild depression. I'm staying aware of this and keeping tabs on my mood. That can also simply be from dieting, though... I also feel very bloated, like I'm holding lots of water. Wasn't expecting that either... my weight jumped up a little once I hopped on, but hopefully that comes off over the next few weeks.
I weightlift intensely 6x/wk, with cardio here and there.
Maintenance calories are roughly 2,400.
Dieting on 2,000 calories, 150g protein, <100g carbs
Drinking at least a gallon of water a day.
Main sources of protein: Chicken, eggs, egg whites, protein powder, greek yogurt
Main sources of carbs: fruits/veggies (lettuce, tomato, cucumber, cabbage, peas, carrots), sweet potato
Main sources of fats: nut butter, olive oil, coconut oil, cheese
Supplements: Joint support, Liver care, Adrenal fatigue, Multivitamin/multimineral, Fish oil
I'm not a bodybuilder so I don't have any fears of fruits or dairy
I eat to fuel my body and I train hard.
Feel free to ask any questions.
Here's my predicted dosing schedule--
Breakdown of Cycle:
Week 1: 5mg Anavar / 40mcg T3/ 40mcg Clen (2days on/2days off)
Week 2: 5mg Anavar / 40mcg T3 / 40mcg Clen (2days on/2days off)
Week 3: 7.5mg Anavar / 50mcg T3
Week 4: 7.5mg Anavar / 75mcg T3 / 40mcg Clen (2days on/2days off)
Week 5: 10mg Anavar / 75mcg T3 / 40mcg Clen (2days on/2days off)
Week 6: 10mg Anavar / 50mcg T3
Week 7: 12.5 mg Anavar / 40mcg T3 / 40mcg Clen (2days on/2days off)

Week 9: 15mg Anavar / 25mcg T3
Week 10: 15mg Anavar / 25mcg T3 / 40mcg Clen (2days on/2days off)
**NOTE** I'm very aware that there are side effects of using these drugs. I take full responsibility and would not advise for anyone to use anything at the doses I'm taking, this is purely informative and it's to log my personal experience so others can learn from it. Take these drugs at your own risk.
