Maybe look at taking some joint support aswel and omega 3 to help with your joints. Not everyone but some people have issues with joints on Var.

Don't panic, if you decide to carry on you can always just stop early if it comes to it.

@ Nate - The var will only give you visible results once your bodyfat is slightly lower. Keep your cycle exactly as is, but drop the var. Trust me you will not see the results from it. You will have good pumps & hardness but that's about it.
Lets keep the var when we decide to start dropping the extra bodyfat. As for now, keep putting on the size like you have been doing.
If you keep updating us, we can help customize your cycle for a better end result.

I will take that advice and drop the var.
I do feel like i have a great pump going this morning and the veins are popping a bit. Which must be the var. I dig the look of it. And the var definitely helps with strength. But I will drop it if you think it is best.
Will I go back to it a week before bridge as Rhino suggested or should I drop it completely?
+1 Dankie Oupa.

That is apparently quite common with var. It does not necessarily spell kidney or liver problems. I read an article about it, but not sure who wrote it. Could have been Bill Roberts. Google it. I had the same thing on var.

If this was my cycle, i would run the test 2 weeks past my last deca pin. Once i dropped the deca, i will add the var and adjust my diet. 80mg ED for 6weeks is more than enough for a solid var bridge cycle.
As i said, its a suggestion and not a necessity

Forgot to mention details of my 54 day bridge starting on June7:
My last pin of Test Enanthate and Deca as mentioned is June 6.
For my bridge the plan was to inject 150mg of Test Prop EOD for first 40 days of bridge. And to continue with anavar, proviron, HCG and dostinex.

Will try get her to take one of my back and legs for you.
Back making progress. Legs very skinny but trying hard. Guess they dont know what I am trying to do after staying like twigs for the running.
The only areas that have really ached a bit have been my knees, but am taking care not to go too heavy in order to keep the right form and not hurt knees or back too much during squats.

I can do them and make i do them with right form, i just resist going to heavy with the squats.
Its by far the most difficult exercise for me. The pullup bar was easier

Time Under Tension is a training method growing in popularity among athletes and bodybuilders to increase muscle mass. The method can also be used to increase muscle strength and endurance.
As you may have guessed, what time under tension (TUT) actually involves is measuring the time a muscle is under tension. I know you're probably thinking; any workout has a muscle under tension for a certain amount of time, right?
Well, what the TUT method actually does is consciously define the 'set' of an exercise by the length of time to finish it, rather than by repetitions (but repetitions are still involved of course). So, the time it takes to complete the set is the amount of time that the muscle is "under tension." Using a stopwatch or counting "steamboats," you can measure the time of one repetition.
Usually TUT is measured with a 3-digit code, but can be better measured with a 4-digit code to maximize gains. For example, doing a "push exercise" like bench press, the TUT can be measured as 4012.
What this translates to is that it took 4 seconds for the eccentric part of the motion (bringing the weight down, lengthening the muscle), a 0-second pause at the bottom of the motion, then 1-second for the concentric part (pushing it up, shortening the muscle), followed by a 2-second pause at the top (focusing on tight contraction). For this rep, the time under tension is 7 seconds. In a set of 8 reps, the time under tension for the entire set would be 56 seconds.

This is awesome advice. Going to look into it and give it a shot.
I would give you more karma right now but it won't let me. Damn the machine!
