After reading through everyone's answers I'm starting to suspect the anavar may be fake. Now the thing is, where do I go from here? I have a set workout plan and eating plan, been diligently exercising but I still wobble like a bowl of jelly.
ok so giving this some thought here. You are looking for a quick fix it seems hence the turning to anavar as quickly as possible. Work on an average how long it took to go on, is how long it's going to come off. When I started I lost 53kgs in 18months, so 3kgs per month and that was aggressive.
Sadly bodyfat does not come off as fast as you like it to, 0.5kgs of fat a week is a safe place to be. I know, not the 20kgs you had hoped. Any more than that you risk losing muscle. Which you are trying to gain at the same time..
Doing to much cardio isn't actually the best thing, i personally would have you training 4-5days per week, focusing on building muscle, and then body fat would come off as a secondary factor.
you have said you went from 5 to 10kg with your weights, on what exercises? There is 3 ways you can make progress with weight training.. increased weight each week but same reps. Increased number of reps with the same weight or increased weight and increased reps.
Now increasing weight by small amounts on certain exercises is easier than increasing reps. For example.
If you are squatting 50kgs for 10 reps you are squatting 50x10 = 500kg.
If you then try and squat 50kgs for 11reps that is a 10% increase and you may fail on that weight.
If you try 52kgs for said 10 reps and get it, you've increased from 500kgs to 520kgs, but still find it achievable. That is how progression works.
This is good for heavy compound lifts, as if you increase by 2kgs weekly overtime you are going to surpass that 10% jump.
You can do rep increases when loads are smaller, say like dumbell Bulgarian split squats. Going from 10 reps of 20kgs, to 15 reps of 20kgs over weeks before going up. As 20kgs is easier to handle than a 50kg squat.
Or you can do both only if you are well rested and full of food..
Now how close should you be training to failure? 1-2 reps on compound exercises, 0-1reps on isolation. Going to failure on squats are more risk of injury than going to failure on leg extensions.
Apply these technique to your training for 3-6months, whilst eating at 10% calorie deficit and doing 30mins of cardio on days you don't train legs, you will be good to go.
Get at least 2.5g or protein per kg of body weight..0.7g per kg of fat and balance of carbs. This needs to change based on where you are on your menstrual cycle, but that's why I my coaching business and why I charge what I charge.
Also start videoing all your lifts to improve form..I ask clients for tons of videos so I can help them adjust.
