Anavar Results: How Long Until You See A Change?
1️⃣ Assessment & Goal‑Setting
Step What to do Why it matters
Baseline health check – Blood pressure, resting heart rate, BMI, blood work (lipids, HbA1c). Ensures you’re medically cleared and provides reference points for future progress. Detects risk factors early; informs safe training loads.
Body‑composition measurement – DEXA, DXA, Bod Pod, or 7‑segment skinfold calipers. Quantifies lean mass, fat mass, bone density, and visceral adiposity. Allows tracking of true health changes beyond scale weight.
Functional movement screen (FMS) + strength test – squats, deadlifts, push‑ups, core endurance. Identifies mobility deficits or imbalances that could lead to injury. Targets corrective exercises; sets a baseline for training adaptations.
Cardiovascular assessment – Resting HR, BP, VO₂max (lab) or sub‑maximal field test (coefficient of performance). Gauges heart‑lung fitness and autonomic regulation. Helps tailor aerobic program intensity to current capacity.
> Result: A comprehensive data set that reveals the athlete’s physical strengths, weaknesses, movement patterns, and cardiovascular status.

2. Setting Specific, Measurable Goals
Domain Short‑Term Goal (0–6 weeks) Long‑Term Goal (6–12 months)
Strength Increase back squat to ≥ 1.5 × bodyweight (e.g., 225 lb for a 150 lb athlete). Reach 2 × bodyweight squat, and 1.75 × for deadlift.
Power/Speed Generate > 250 W power output in the Wingate test. Hit > 300 W and improve sprint time from 20 m: 3.5 s to 3.0 s.
Endurance Sustain > 80% of max heart rate for ≥ 30 min at 75 rpm. Maintain > 90% HR for 45 min
available At valley`S Website 85 rpm with minimal fatigue.
Injury Prevention Strengthen posterior chain: glute bridge strength index 1.5× body weight. Reduce knee joint loading by improving quadriceps-to-hamstring ratio to ≥ 0.75.
Testing Schedule:
-
Baseline (Week 0) – All metrics recorded.
-
Midpoint (Weeks 12–14) – Reassess key performance and injury prevention markers.
-
Post‑Season (Week 22) – Final evaluation, compare to baseline.

8. Practical Implementation Checklist
Item Frequency Notes
Core & Hip Stability Drills Daily 2–3 sets of planks, side planks, bird‑dogs; 1–2 sets of resisted hip abduction/adduction
Flexibility Routine (hip flexors, hamstrings) Daily 30 s static stretch per muscle group after warm‑up or cool‑down
Hip Strengthening (glute bridges, clamshells) 3×/week Progress to single‑leg variations; add resistance bands or ankle weights
Mobility Warm‑up (dynamic hip circles, leg swings) Pre‑practice 1–2 min of each movement
Cool‑down Stretching + Foam Rolling Post‑practice 5–10 min focused on hips and lower back

4. Practical Training Routine for a Youth Baseball Team
Overview
Frequency: 3–4 training sessions per week (e.g., after-school or weekend practices).
Duration: 20–30 minutes per session, integrated into existing practice time.
Session Warm‑up (5 min) Core Drill (10–15 min) Cool‑down (5–10 min)
|
Day 1 | Dynamic stretches: leg swings, hip circles, torso twists. |
Hip‑Openers Circuit:Side‑lying Clamshells (2×12 each side).
Standing Hip Abduction with resistance band (3×15 each side).
Bird‑Dog (3×10 each side). |
|
Day 2 | Leg swings, walking lunges. |
Hip‑Strength Circuit:Glute Bridge (3×15).
Side Plank (hold 30 s each side, 3 reps).
Dead Bug (3×10 each side). |
|
Day 3 | Gentle yoga stretches: pigeon pose. |
Dynamic Hip Mobilization:Hip Circles (3×10 each direction).
Standing Quad Stretch with hip flexor release. |
Progression & FrequencyStart with
2–3 sessions per week; increase to
4 sessions once pain improves.
Gradually increase hold times, repetitions, and load (e.g., adding light dumbbells).
Monitor for sharp or new pain; if discomfort increases, reduce intensity.
6. Follow‑Up & Re‑Assessment
Visit Goal
Week 2 Evaluate pain scores, ROM, functional status, adjust home program.
Week 4 Assess progress, re‑educate on activity modification, possibly add more advanced strengthening.
Month 3–6 Continue monitoring; aim for full return to usual activities without pain.

7. Patient Education & Resources
Explain the biomechanics of shoulder overuse and how movement patterns contribute.
Provide a visual diagram (attached) showing correct vs. incorrect arm positioning during common tasks.
Recommend ergonomic adjustments at work or home, such as using a stool to keep the computer at eye level.
Encourage regular breaks: every 30 minutes stand up and move your shoulders for 1–2 minutes.
8. Summary
Your shoulder pain is most likely caused by chronic overuse from repetitive motions that place excessive stress on the supraspinatus tendon. By combining targeted strengthening of the rotator cuff, improving scapular stability, correcting movement patterns, and incorporating self‑care strategies such as ice, heat, and stretching, you should see significant relief in a few weeks. Please let me know if you have any questions or would like to schedule a follow‑up visit.
Thank you for trusting me with your care.
