am planning to go to Australia in the near future,more precisely Perth.

so am wondering where bodybuilding is affordable. that is the price of gym,food and supplement cost. per month average,how much $ you spend?

and what about the availability of steroid ?

I live in Sydney, so I can't really judge Perth prices, but since the mining boom, their prices are just about as high as Sydney's. Supplement prices in Australia are ridiculous. You know the 10lb ON 100% Whey bags? The cheapest you will get them here is $135 a pop. Also, GOOD gyms cost around $30/fortnight if you're over 18 (an adult). As for food, it all depends on where you shop. But you won't find chicken breast for cheaper than $9.50/kg.

Steroid availability is all about who you know. And if you don't know anyone, you're in trouble, and a target for scammers. However, I'm sure you're aware prices are MUCH higher than what you're used to in the States (assuming that's where you live).

Things arnt as bad as H&A made out, you just need to do some shopping around. Our dollars been pretty good as of late (in comparison to the US) so that helps.

Hey mate.
The prices on gyms depend on which suburb your going to be staying in and if your going to be mobile.
I get most of my sups online with a lot of aussie websites giving free delivery if you spend over $150 or flat shipping of $5-!0 if you spend under.

As for tucker, Im lucky that part of my job i visit slaughter houses and get awesome deals on prime cuts. But shop around, some places have end of week specials on poultry.

Hope you enjoy your stay.

As hitman said getting your supps online is pretty cheap compared to most other places but prices are still pretty bad compared to the states...
I pay $600/year for my gym and its a great place to train but this will vary depending where you are.

Hey H&A where are you getting those ON's 10lb bags for $135??? Im using Dymatize Elite WPI 10lb for $123... Also there 12hour protein is pretty cheap too $55 for 4.4lb

I get my protein from ProteinDirect. Its unflavoured so I just mix in a little honey. Good value for $$$

Oh, and next day delivery.

Another good place if you want to buy bulk is ...http://www.myopure.com.au/Bulk.html
or even ...http://www.thesupplementden.com.au/s...oncentrate.htm

Im actually a big fan of some musashi stuff. If i cant wait I go around to the healty life store , and smooth the workers over with charm and bullshit and walk out the store with a hell of a good deal. http://www.healthylife.net.au/storel...allstores=true

I last got musashi bulk from them, 2 X 5.5lbs tubs( or 5kg) for $130.

I’ve always wanted to buy property in Australia and go there for the winters. It’s cold here in the winter, I don’t really have to work in the winter. I could go there, train all winter and that’s it. I might go out on the weekends and get shot done by some Aussie native girls or try to catch a Koala Bear, I’ve always found both of them cute.

a) They're not bears
b) Koala's are not the type of animals you can/are allowed to catch
c) I love how you believe the stereotype of Australia is a barren land, where dingos and kangaroos hop around our backyards, and crocodile dundee lives next door
