How about man up, and make your own decision, and decide if looking like muscled up freak with a foul temper and fucking your body up with drugs is worth it? Or you could just train instead and be fit and healthy......

If you do it properly you'll find you don't end up like that stereotype

Check out the training room. Also, how long have you been training?, I advise a good 2-3 years natural training with decent routine and diet before trying gear.

i trained for 6 years with all my mates doing steroids.i didnt touch them once and wont do.my uncle done them and they aint to good imo.you have to use them if you want to get huge but i got to just a good size by good healthy eating and 5 times a week training. i looked like a normally well built bloke.
roids give you all sorts of probs,bad temper/mood swings,bad spots on your face and back,tiny dick, and for some reason it also makes you think you are the hardest coont in the world. sad fact is you wont be.

my opinion is steer clear and train hard and you will be pushing near thier weight without them just not looking as big.and who looks silly then?you or the muscle bound dude who cant lift more than the smaller fit guy

pmsl at that! it something to do with the hormones in it.apparently it does well thats what a few mates have said.it does shrink it a bit.
but that could be them being thick and not realising thier legs are getting bigger not thier cock getting smaller

There is so much bollocks talked about steroids.
SOME not all will have varying degrees of bad side effects, just the same as the ones a DR gives you.
I took BLUE DIANOBOL for two years and went from 8 stone to 15 stone.
Personally the best thing I ever did FOR ME.
Not every body will respond the same though, a lot of steroids are not steroids they are crap made to look like steroids, some dangerously so.
I had NO mood swings, but DID suffer from KIDNEY PROBLEMS, and was told clearly stop taking or you are going to lse your kidneys, this scared the shit out of me if I'm honest, but I was taking 3x the rec dose.
Having been there and done it, al I canm say is some are less harmful than a pint down the local, way less harmful than smoking, but some will KILL you quite easy.
I would not again take any as it also screws your metabolism up big time.
Most knucleheads concentrate on muscles rather than CV, but thier heart is also a muscle and needs exercise too, you will be much better with decent diet/training, and have more money.
I lost a friend at age 37 from steroid abuse, twice daily thigh injections he was 5'4" 23 stone and not a shred of fat anywhere, he left two lovely kids and a lovely wife behind as he would not stop, but this was eriously hard stuff, but he was the mnost gentle person you could meet, and always walked away from fights unless he couldn't.
Try taking green tea capsules, but DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES take moe than the rec dose, as it makes you fly!!
This is an awsome fat burner and will also help muscle growth as will CREATINE help with muscle retention, just take creatine with warm water with a teaspoon of sugar as it absorbs much better that way.

certain riods will do certain things to your body
some will give you bitch tits too so not only will you look good, you'll be able to play with your own boobs

as long as you take thigns that are basicly recommended by the guys in the local health food shop type establishment rather than those down the jim, you'll be fine and dandy in most cases

juicing up is all about being able to replenish the stuff your body is using, so a lot of guys will pop pills because you can't eat enough and digest enough to be able to keep your intake of 15,000 calories a day without them (some of the top rate guys do this sort of amount because you'd never stop eating long enough to train)

read up what you are getting yourself into by buying the regular bodybuilding mags and stuff

The problem is when you STOP taking them as your body will want to get back to your natural size. You'll end up like a right porker and sag like an 80 year old granny later on in life!

If you cant do it naturally, then i wouldnt bother in my opinion. Everyone i know on them get the piss taken out of them for it. Anyone can do it so its no acheivement at all, whereas if you work hard enough in the gym, it should pay off in the end.

anyone that says they dont affect your mood is talking shite. i was on nandralone injections and other pills for a while a few years ago and was dragging people out of their cars in road rage incidents surprisingly regularly. never came of second best though . now i dont see the point in sterroids as when you stop taking them you will lose a lot of what youve gained but it gives you the instant results that keep you going when you first start out on the weights.

I used to think about this alot but personally I started to dislike how peoples bodies turned when they took gear, the gym I go to is made up of about 10% natural and 90% on gear. To me its very obvious who is using and their stomachs always look wrong and puffed up. Someone once mentioned that the gear makes internal organs grow as well but I dont believe that I think its just maybe a side effect that the gut appears larger.
All depends on your cicrumstances mate, if your doing it under peer pressure then Id say its wrong, if your doing it for personal reasons and you've reached a plateau with your natural growth then go for it but do plenty of research, muscletalk.co.uk would be my first port of call.

Well you were very lucky then-I'm glad you have stopped doing them and stopped doing stupid things like that, imagine if you had tried to pick a fight with someone twice your size and on steroids.............

Exactly... I have done them the right way... eg properly planned, tested and supervised by a medical professional

or the wrong way... 15 NASTY pink Anabols taken once a day in the morning as I 'thought' thats what the bloke said

The wrong way fucked me RIGHT up... the right way was awesome

quite a few of my mates take roids...

It really has changed their physique but the amount of chicken they eat is unreal permanently eating

The only down size I can see to it, is the mood's.. We were down the pub enjoying a few beers and suddenly my mate just flips.. smashes the pint glass on the floor.. sad really..

they have absolutely no fuse at all.. which leads to fights all the time.. again, pathetic IMO..

I guess its down to your personallity with the effects

roid rage is definately apparent in them tho

I also find it funny that most people who take them only see the posatives and dont want to believe there are any negatives. You can always tell the ones that go over the top with them though. The gut is a give away with many.

As with the ott ones, Ive also found that most people dont think 'oh look at the size of him', but more like 'how many steroids is he taking then'. I seriously think that these ott people think they look good, when most are taking the piss out of them in reality. If only they knew!

People generalise to much there are oads of different types of roids. People tend to stay away from the injections and stay with the orals but in reality the injectios are far better for your body as there is less harsh on the liver and kidneys etc.

As porkie said if there done properly with the other supliments to go with them so your balls dont shrink to nothing and GOOD gear is used in moderation there not bad imo.

Think of it this way you could spend your whole life drinking 2 pints a night and be fine, or you could drink a bottle of whisky every night and see how long your liver lasts. Its exactly the same principal imo

so very true.

to me cycling gear is like taking 3 steps forward, and off cycle 1 step backwards.

thats if you do it right.

its very easy to take 3 steps forwards and 3 steps back if you dont have the knowledge or the commitment.

used right they are awesome.

there's a lot of shit being talked in this thread lol

the popular gear does you little harm...like its been said above a night out probably does more harm. the key is keeping up your CV, eating right, training right and resting right.

training is a science...it takes years of doing it wrong to finally do it right. as porkie said, 2-3 years natural should be experienced before juicing up.

i laugh out loud at the misconceptions surrounding gear. people saying its cheating, that it give u a small dick, that you deflate like a popped baloon afterwards etc...load of bollox. physcologically, gear BATTERS your head...as you swell quickly, your on a high, then you lose weight and feel a bit depressed and thin, even though you havent lost that much (its called 'manarexia')...id say its probably more hassle/harder being on gear than off it!

FPMSL...another typical 'believer' in the stories of gear giving you heart attacks when your 30 etc lol

im not saying gear is good for you, but it's probably less harmful than drinking.
