Do i need steroids to compete?

[calichico]

I'm 19 and have a goal to compete in my first show in a few months. I want to know if I do compete, do i need to take steroids to be competitive? I know there are natural contest, but i have tried steroids about a year ago for about a month. It hurt me more than it helped (because i didn't know what i was doing) So, since i have to join a regular, non tested contest, do i need steroids to compete and do well?

5-9, 185, 12%

also, do i need steroids to get that ripped look? to acheive the 3-4% bodyfat?

Thank You!

dude your still young train natty for as long as you can. wait a few years until your body naturaly stops growing then if you decide to use aas research first so you can have a safe productive cycle. i wish ive had waited now im paying for now. and yes you could get ripped with out aas. a buddy of mine just took 2nd 175lbs class all natty just supps and was the most ripped on the stage. while other guys were using. all comes down to diet. good luck on your decisions.
