Here's a question for guys who run orals consistently as part of their blasts.
This is something gotgame mentioned using his friend as a case study; and it's something that still bothers me about orals.
Let's say you run 50 mgs of anadrol the first 4 weeks of a blast; your HDL plummets to the 15-20 range, then you drop it, but with testosterone in the supra-physiological range (500+mgs) for the next 12 weeks, your HDL doesn't really recover all that much.
So that's 4 months straight with a bad lipid profile; some prime environment for plaque buildup. My dad has had a double bypass, so this is not something I take lightly.
I'm tempted to run a little anavar for an upcoming event (hoping it wont destroy the appetite); then I think, that'll destroy the lipids completely, and unless I cruise on TRT for the next 8-12 weeks to restore them back, they'll stay tanked just due to the injectables. So I can keep the orals out, keep the HDL in decent range, and prolong a growth phase.
So how do you guys deal with this when running orals? I know many don't even bother in the off season. Pre-contest it makes sense; take the governor off, and do what's needed to bring the best package. But the rest of the year
Anybody run bloodwork on different ones to see which ones maybe aren't as harsh on the lipids? Best of the worst
Disclaimer: Obviously this isn't consistent with everybody; some of you fuckers have titanium organs, but for us mortals it might be an issue.
