People who started 21 and younger?? are you happy
I generally here the best time to start is around 24 or 25...... but what evidence is there to support this(besides slightly higher test levels younger)....i am almsost 21 and thinking of doing a light 10wk/350mg test e cycle.... everyone says wait, too young and you can grow more naturally.... well isnt the fact we ALL could grow SOME more naturally.... i also here "well your test levels are higher at that age", but comeon not THAT much higher... i mean not signifigant enough to look like a BB'er... so i guess i wanna bring up the discusion again... what is the problem with someone 20-21 doing a light cycle, who is educated on the subject and mature enough(lives healthy life style etc)...... Just wanted to get your thoughts and drum up some conversation

im 20 myself, and have already done afew cycles. the most obvious reasons as to waiting is how roids affect your bones and growth plates. also your hormone levels and production will not reach their natural potential id assume.

yeah, im 19, and i think it's a very over-estimated risk factor, but people are just doing their job to keep "kids" from doing drugs. but im still young and i have got alot of a good gains recently 'naturally' still. so untill i feel i really really need AAS im gonna stay away

1) I grew about 1.5 inches between 18 and 21 years old.
2) Look at arnold of Malta's post - 5 cycles at 19. The gains in the gym are addictive. It is hard to stop once you start. Everyone says this will be their last one, until next year they are not happy with losing size or stregth and they do another.
The health problems are real after years of cycling. I am going to start a 5th cycle at 35.5 years old. Arnold of Malta is 19 and already ahead of me. I personally can't see continuing after 40 but who knows. I started when I was 32 and have done a little more than 1 per year. Another thing that keeps you upping the number of cycles is if you play it smart and only add one compound at a time, you have to accumulate a number of cycles/experiments on yourself to know what really works.
Just some words of caution. People always say, welcome to the dark side. In some ways there is no return. I started lifting at age 15 and it's gonna be life long for me and the results of gear are something that is almost irresitable especially as your natural test starts to slow down, you get more benefits then just the physical.Last edited by sp9; 01-31-2006 at 07:23 PM.

Im not saying u should do steroids if your younger than 20 but what most people dont get is that some people take steroids becuz they are athletes and they do not care at all about bodybuilding, and unless your one of a special few you arent going to be playing organized sports your whole life so i think a big reason a lot of younger people want to use is because they are athletes and they want to use while they still have a chance of going somewhere in their sport. thats just my .02 on it

Good response bro...... so i guess its one of those things.... theres no real extra sides at 21.... but it Could be like smoking? in the sense if you start younger you can see possible side effects earlier in your life? Like if i start at 21 as oppose to 30 i could see possible liver effects 9 years earlier than i would

What are your goals? At 20 years old you could definently use clen for an edge.

Everything in moderation.
There is nothing to discourage me from doing another. I have access, I have the $, I live alone, no children to worry about, no wife that might get to the mailbox before me, retirement accounts are full.
I just gotta make sure I do it in moderation and try to mitigate any health problems.

Mine was 400mg, just because the test c I used was 200mg per ml. If it had been 250mg per ml I porb would have done 500. I think it is a good idea to start out low.

Another thing is make sure you have a good base to start off with. I know guys at the gym who started juicing when they could barely bench 200lbs and squat 250 if there life depended on it. If your healthy and are done growing id say sure start at 20 but get blood work before mid and after pct.

i started at like 19 i dont have any regrets.. all my levels are normal. currently in my third cycle and thnking it may be my last bulker for a few years. going to switch my sights to more cutting over getting big from now on.

01-31-2006, 08:23 PM #33

01-31-2006, 08:25 PM #34
dude I started at 19, I'm def upset I did. I have been growing naturally since then I am glad I did now as my 22nd birthday comes around Im thinking about it again whether or not I will ehhhh.
btw it was a half assed- 10week test/eq/winny no PCT.

well i'm about to start my second cycle. i did my first cycle at 19, and it was shitty, I didn't really do things right till halfway through but managed to gain 20lbs nonetheless off of 250deca and 300 of sust. My problem is I have very low testosterone naturally, and actually when I saw an endo, he got me a prescription for cialis. Don't make fun, it sucks, and I bust my ass in the gym and eat right, and rest well, I just don't make the sort of gains I should be gaining. Put it this way, I went from benching 225 once to benching 265 for 6 on my first cycle. Since then I have only got up to 315x2 on bench. Squats and DL's have been slowly increasing, but that's mostly from lack of training before, so I'm catching up. I've pretty much peaked naturally at 200-205 @ 11-12% BF at 5'9". My growth plates are all closed up from a motocross related crash...so obviously I haven't grown in quite sometime. I'm 20 now, almost 21, and this cycle is gonna push me to the limit. Looking to hit 230 or so with 4weeks of dbol , 10weeks of 400deca, 12 weeks of 500 or 600 test enth. I don't regret it, I just wish I knew then what I knew now...because I could be so much further.
