    Do people question you as to how you have gained so much muscle mass so quickly?

    How to you handle it? Do you tell them? Do you have any stories?

    On my first cycle, which was 3 months long, I increased my body weight by 24.6%.

    Everyone I saw, everywhere I went, noticed.

    Everyone. Everywhere.

    I was getting comments like "You're a thousand times bigger", and of course many people were spreading rumours that I was on steroids.

    I just denied the rumours and told everyone I stopped drinking, fixed my diet, and trained twice a day. Nobody with half a brain believed me though.

    I've gained about 80lbs in 3 years, and bf% went up slightly....people ask all the time. Usually I deny it and play the old "diet, good training, sleep pattern" bs. Once people make up their mind, that's that, there is no changing their opinions. When I go out on weekends, I rock a medium size shirt at 250lbs, so I am constantly hearing "roided motherfvcker...juicehead..." under peoples breaths. I take it as a compliment

    Kind of the same boat as tai, my gains come in slow.

    People that used to know me from highschool have asked me about juice. I was skinny as fuk, I weighed 110 pounds during my last year in highschool. I now weight 176pounds, after training for a little under 2 years, but my BF% is slightly higher though, cutting as of now.

    i have bloated heavily though
    Lol I looked like a piƱata filled with fat and water, on a deca/test cycle I did when I was consuming a little over 5k cals a e/d. When I was on that sh1t it was so obvious I was using

    Never ever going to do that pure bulk type thing again, when you're that bloated it just looks disgusting and very obvious you're on something.

    I've been questioned several times in the past as well. A lot of my friends know I've done cycles and many of them have as well. People at work have questioned me a lot too, but they see the healthy lifestyle first hand with the frequent meals and if I go to happy hour drinking water and split a 1/2 hour into it.

    I would say that most people who see me on the street would assume I'm using steroids.

    I'm really not trying to sound egotistical or anything there, it's just the vibe I get, and from the feedback I get from new people I meet at clubs and whatnot. I kinda figure it's like an ice-breaker now... haha

    ... I don't wear medium shirts outside though! (hilarious pic) lolll ****** too funny bro

    I wear a 2x at 250 and 5'8" and I think that's borderline too tight.....


    If you had put a decent base on before AAS (everyone did this, right?) a size increase wouldn't be as noticeable. When people say they put 30lbs on for consecutive years, a good portion of that is most likely fat. Being fat makes you look big, but not in a good way.

    I don't think so, at least with t-shirts. The problem I have is with long sleeve shirts. At 2x the sleeves are all too long and I have to fold them up and some of them hang a little too low. So, yeah maybe a little with some.

    Umm.. .. people ask you if you use steroids? Or "speed"? If you're 6 foot 155lbs you sound like your as big as DJ Qualls. And he looks like an ethiopian. I'm 5' 4" 168lbs (about 11-12% bf), and I don't EVER get comments about steroids, so if you weigh less than me, and are 8 inches taller, I find you FOS that a single person has ever even murmered the word "steroids" around you.

    Not to be an ass but I saw this post and thought wtf.
