      Why do I think this will fall on deaf ears?

      No steroids. Cardio=great! Light weights=great! Diet=????
      So If you are new to this you probably are doing a few things wrong. Considering steroids, especially anavar is a big one.

      Diet and training are 80%/15% of the equation. Steroids would or should be the other 5%, IF appropriate.
      If you put more than 5% on steroids you are most likely to let the importance of the other two slide.
      Dieting alone can improve health and appearance.
      Training alone can change health and appearance.
      Steroids alone will do nothing except maybe degrade health because of and in addition to the lack of diet and training.

      Good on ya for taking steps to improve your life. Don’t bother complicating things with steroids. Perhaps get your testosterone levels checked and if low, go on TRT.
      Most of all, seek proper guidance on diet and training and let time take what it needs to show you the changes.
      Then, one day, maybe you’ll really want to explore some different steroids for various reasons. But NEVER as a shortcut.

      Please do not think this fell on deaf ears - I hear and appreciate everything you have to say- so I will hit the gym harder and work on strict diet- I DO want to get o to the best shape of my life-so I have insurance can I just go and request these blood tests like I see on here or should I go a different route -at what point would of my transformation should I think about this again after a loss of 20..30.. pounds? Thanks for all your insight

      Come to the Robotics section and check out my Spring log. I always accent the foundational importance of training and diet. Welcome to the path.....

      Tom, I think you should focus mainly on diet and weights. Do cardio on the side. I used to be a massive cardio junkie. I could go into the gym and pound out an hour and a half - high speed 10-12mph on the elliptical, hour on the step climber on other days, hiking for 2 hours, bycling, etc. I love cardio. But, I wasn't losing the weight. Seriously! lol. I used to weight train hard in my 20s and early 30s and just got sucked into cardio all the time. I scratched my head a lot and said, I'm beating myself up every day and not losing the weight. And it gets harder and harder every year, especially now that I'm 47. I still feel great, and I'm starting to look good again - muscular.

      I know a lot of guys in here may or may not like this advice, but I really got hooked on watching those athleen-x videos by Jeff Cavalier. He's probably the best physical trainer/ therapist around. I had to stop thinking about cardio all the time, and start weight training. And weight training the correct way. I got rid of all the horrible exercises that I picked up over the years, stopped over doing it and I'm currently getting my diet in check now.

      One thing I know to be true.

      YOU CAN'T OUT-TRAIN A BAD DIET!!

      Take my word on it bro. My wife is starting to feel it as well, and she's going to sign up for one of his programs and I told her that I would follow her diet except that I'll eat more protein due to weight training.

      I dialed in my gym since I began retraining myself mentally and physically on my last cycle that started in November. I ran eq 500 and test e 500 for 16 weeks. I just finished my pct protocol and I was blessed with about 5-6 weeks of anavar. Funny that you mentioned that.

      One thing that I didn't realize is just how GREAT anavar is at melting the fat on the trunk/mid section (abs). I've only been on it now for about a week and a half at 25mgs. It's subtle, but dude, you still have to work on the diet and the weight training. Weight Training will really help you shred the fat if you put the time in on it. And you could easily drop those 30-40 pounds in the next 6 months to a year if you just dial in the carbs. Whether you pick some program from Athleen or get a personal diet coach/trainer to help you, you can do it. I watched a guy that I work with, 6'2 250 pounds drop down to 179 in a year!!! All he did was eat right (under 2000 calories a day - thinking more around 1700).

      Get your blood work done, look at what you're eating every day, how to reduce it and your goal before EVER introducing steroids. There are plenty of "fat" strong guys out there, very little strong low body fat guys. But, no matter which road you go down, get your bloods first.

      The issue you probably had with cardio not reducing fat was due to intense vs. target cardio. Intense cardio simply doesn’t promote fat loss past a point. It’s why I don’t get this HIIT trend for BBers.
      I, and my clients getting very lean doing target cardio as I outlined in Ragu’s thread a while back.

      Not calling you fat but a fat guy on steroids is still a fat guy.

      Work on diet and cardio. That's 99% of the game. Post up your diet and workout and let us help. Var is not the answer.
