Anavar (oxandrolone) is not very toxic, not very androgenic, mildly anabolic, and pretty mild on the body's HPTA (Hypothalamic-Testicular-Pituitary-Axis). First of all, and this will come as no surprise to many people, Anavar is quite mild on your liver. Water retention is also virtually nil with it.

Weight gained with 'var may be nearly permanent too. If you're regaining weight, Anavar will give you nearly permanent gains, and if you are trying to lose fat (and you keep your diet in check), the fat lost with Anavar basically looks to be nearly permanent.

Anavar is also the clear choice for a "spring-cutting" cycle, to look great at the beach—you can use it up until the summer starts, and then keep the fat off during the entire beach season!

Anavar is great for strength and cutting purposes, but not for bulking or a lot of weight gain. Anavar will not totally shut down your HPTA, especially at lower doses (unlike testosterone, which will eventually do this even at a 100mg dose, or Deca which will do it with a single 100mg dose).

Thus, Anavar may even be ideal for use in bridges between cycles, (at very low doses under 10mgs perhaps), or as previously mentioned, for cutting/strength cycles at 50-100mgs. Its relatively high cost is its only major drawback.
