Oral Options in Pre Contest Protocols

[ubcpower]

Prae,
Now that its show season I've had the chance to peruse some of my competitor friends contest cycles from a variety of coaches (some big name /some lesser known).
Most seem to subscribe to bringing in some type of base oral from the 8-6 week out mark. At this point things seem to vary tho in terms of Var, Winny , a combo of both or high dose of just one.
Hypothetical question for you. Assuming someone was bringing in an oral from the 6 week out mark and running it at 100mg/day mark what of the following would be better or have a more syngestic effect in ur professional opinion and experience:

Option A
Week 6-1 100mg Winny/ed
Option B
Week 6-1 100mg Var/day
Option C
Week 6-1 50winny/50 var/day
Option D
Week 8-4 100mg var/day
Week 4-1 100mg Winny/day

Two of the above options were right out of a friends protocol made for him by a top NPC national guy.
Thx for ur time!

Instead of listening to hearsay with absolutely no scientific basis I would recommend looking first at what the specific goal is and then what the compounds you are looking at actually do. Its seems rather strange to me that nobody does this and just bases their cycle of what this so called guru does when in most cases these guys have little knowledge themselves.

So lets look at number one...what is the goal...if you are 6 weeks out from a contest the goal is to appear harder leaner, more vascular, as well as more full. So next we look at what effect the compounds have. Since our base should be long ester test...lets assume you are already running 1000mg weekly (standard protocol for a national level BB) then what can we add for maximum hardness, fullness, and vascularity. If we were running EQ the first 8 weeks of our precontest cycle then I would suggest tren acetate the last 8 weeks. Tren is the strongest non aromatizing androgen you can get beside Halotestin. So we now have test and tren so what other compound can help? Anavar? nope it is much less androgenic then tren so running anavar will produce no discernible cosmetic effect. Winstrol in injectable form should be your choice as a DHT derivative it has a special effect of drying the body out and makes you appear denser and harder with increased vascularity. Oral winstrol should only be chosen if injectable is not available because it is less potent and cause more sides because it is 17aa and orally is not as bioavailable as injectable. The other choice if winstrol is not available would be Masteron again because it is a DHT derivative and acts similar to winstrol.

The only oral I would ever add to a precontest cycle would Halotestin the last 2-3 weeks or winstrol if injectable wasnt available.

The best cycle bar none for the last 8 weeks precontest would be test as a base, tren acetate, winstrol injectable, and halotestin.

Anavar is predominantly a womens drug and will not improve things if you are already running a strong non aromatizing androgen.
