Optimal anavar dosage

Thinking of adding in 20mg anavar was wondering what would be the best way to dose it 10mg am and 10mg pre workout/pm to keep blood levels stable or should I do 20mg pre workout just curious which way will net the best results for growth
 
imo at a low dose taking the entire dose pre workout is the best bang for your buck. Theoretically should drive a higher level of performance.

I think most would agree that orals aren’t really what you want lean into in terms of driving anabolism. They’re more ideally used for acute performance enhancement and cosmetics while your injectable compounds do their thing.
 
What are you planning to use it with? 15-20mg on it's own for a beginner or first cycle would work pretty good.
 
How much primo? That's quite a bit as it is. Just use more primo if you want more drugs and skip the anavar, no need for 3 compounds IMO.
I agree in most circumstances.

If OP is coming in to the final 4-6 weeks of his cycle with an acceptable bill of health, for most people adding in 20mg of anavar should be fairly benign from a health standpoint. I think it will probably yield better results than adding in an equivalent amount of primo.
An argument could be made for getting more out of the cycle by bumping up the test and primo a decent amount instead of adding in anavar. I don’t think he can go wrong with either approach though if he feels pushing things more is appropriate.

Yup in the end more mg= more results (to a certain degree).

Like anything in bodybuilding it's so individual. The last few weeks i could add more, you name it, and nothing really happens. I respond fast so i like to hit things hard in the beginning. My cycles have gotten increasingly shorter over time.

I've done something similar to what OP is proposing just with dbol. It worked great but it was probably overkill.

It’s so funny because this is how every thread about cycle advice can be summarized.

You can have your head as deep in the books as you want but you learn very quickly that things rarely work out how they should on paper when it comes to this stuff.

So true. Usually i reply with "try it and let us know how it goes" haha.

I understand the science and i can articulate it but i hardly ever really go by it.

That is the plan I'm coming to the last 4-6 weeks of my cycle and just got
My bloods back everything is in good range so was just looking to add a little extra kick at the end I've used anavar before so I have some left over and I also have tbol but have never used it but if you guys think bumping the primo/test up last 4 weeks that's something I'd consider too just looking for the best risk/reward option my last 4-6 weeks
 
500 test 500 primo
That's a good amount of gear, I'd personally just ride it out or even cut the cycle short once results slow down.

The sooner you come off and start again, you reap the benefits of being "fresh". I've been at those last few weeks and added this and that, they made no difference other than making me feel unwell (above 1.2g ish).

There's something to be said about satisfying one's curiousity though. Everyone's threshold and reaction is different.

Personally, I would skip out on the anavar and increase both injectables 200mg/week
 
Save it for when you need the extra polish.... Say your next calender shoot or the end of your pre trip diet phase 😊
 
500 test 500 primo
What was your last cycle? If your last cycle total milligrams was 500 then 1000 is way overkill what would you do the cycle after that?? 1500 mg?? that’s unsustainable

You should only take enough of an increase of anabolic to achieve new growth if you’ve completely maxed out growth at for example 500 mg why would you do more than 600 next because after that you could do 700. If your last cycle was 500 mg I would recommend this cycle 300 test 300 primo or 400 test 200 primo.

Too many guys go 500 - 750 - 1000mg. So many opportunities for growth missed.

I see these threads all the time and it is great to get someone else's opinion, but there is no right answer. Few comments - maybe I have you confused and if so (sorry, but you don't need 1 gram of injectables. Is this not your second cycle or one of your first? @Oldguyjiujitsu is correct. Been doing cycles - higher doses earlier in life(never over 500 mg a week) / lower now and no where near 1 gram a week and I am referring to decades of lifting. You are an adult so do what you want, but if you are in this for the long run, and like your health - take it slow and you don't even have to increase your injectables your second cycle or third. If 500 test worked well the 1st time, you did a PCT, took time off at minimum equal to the time you were on and are healthy - why wouldn't 500 mg work again?

Members often ask for the best dosage and there is no correct answer. Everyone is different (weight / physiology) and it will depend on your priorities and degree of risk you will tolerate. There is a thought process Oxandralone and T-bol are safer orals and maybe they are for many. Oxandrolone is supposed to be primarily metabolized by the kidneys (90 plus %) but if that is the case, why does it send so many user's liver enzymes into the stratosphere. I tried it at 5 mg a day and 10 mg a day and in a few weeks (woman's dosage) - ALT - 4 times top of the normal range, GGT up, etc. T-bol - same. By the way - I felt great, but never try anything new without doing bloods and urine tests a few weeks after I start. I hear this from many. Others - can take it longer and in higher doses. Just an opinion - do not assume it is a safer or there is a perfect dosage or time to take it. It is known to be better 2 times per day - just divide by 2 and take it twice due to half-life. @BanditNOLIMIT likes it pre-workout, if I could take it - I would be twice a day every day, but neither of us are wrong.
This whole concept of taking more each time doesn't work if you plan to use steroids long term - you will end up with health issues or worse (unless you are lucky). Why add an oral that will be hard on the lipids, liver, kidneys when you are already taking a gram of gear. If you have to increase something - increase your primo dose but if you can't grow on 1000 mg of gear, something is missing in the equation.
If this seems harsh, it isn't meant that way - I am concerned about health and don't want to see you injuring yourself. Hopefully, you monitor your blood, BP, and urine.
Best of luck.
 
The thing with threads like this is I go in assuming the individual is doing their due diligence and have already made up their mind about they want to do.

Doses are completely individual. Some people hyper respond some don't. I agree with @Goldenrod and @Oldguyjiujitsu in that dosages for most people should progress as they progress. That being said there is something to be said about effective dosages for the application. For instance, nobody takes half an advil when they're sick then talks about how little they used, you just take what you need, no more no less.

This is not to say I advocate high doses, i have found what i believe is my personal threshold and it is lower than many people's as I am sensitive, though these days I contemplate quitting AAS altogether.

Anyways, assuming diet, training etc. are in check, it's not only about dose, it's about duration too, and yes time off is important. Something to keep in mind is results are cyclical. My last cycle(1g deca only) by week 7 results basically stopped rolling in the way they did in the first 6 weeks. No amount of extra food or drugs did anything. This isn't for everyone, but I'm just laying out an example of how gains will eventually slow down regardless of how much you take. In my experience it's better to come off at that point and reset.
