think im ready

[cooperman]

ok, ive done all the research i can possibly do... and ive got a good idea of what im going to take, how to take it, what amounts, etc. my question doesnt have to do with your opinions of what drugs, doses, routine etc... its pretty simple -

first a little about me, i am 26 yrs old 6'2'' 230lbs --- married with a 4 month old son. used to be in great shape lifted and ran 4-5 times a week from about 16-24 yrs old... as you can tell from my stats ive gained about 30lbs in the last 2+yrs and its all fat. im not happy about this and want to get back into my routine and body. everything ive read has said for a beginner cycle work out for 2-3yrs prior. i haven't done this. i have gotten back into the routine since new years 1/1/08 (my resolution) and have done a good job now i want to accelerate the process. my question is ---

am i ready?

thanks man,

like i said i didnt come join this board ignorant, as i have done research. but thats what im looking for is your thoughts.

any other opinions??? i know ive only been back in the routine about 1.5 mo's now but im finding gains alot harder than they used to be, which is why i was strongly considering/ looking into/ prepared to do a cycle.

ive recieved mixed thoughts from steroid novices/ friends, which is why i thought id ask the 'experts'

thanks guys

Well I'm no expert since I've never done a cycle yet, but I'd say cut down all that fat first since you will have lesser aromatization. Also focus hard on lifting to get back where you used to be, IMO you should at least be near your max lifts before taking the plunge. Get into the habit of cooking at home and eating clean protein-filled food. Also make sure you have a nice schedule set up w.r.t sleeping and working out, and dont skip the cardio. When you feel you are up to par with all this, then take the plunge and GROWWWWWW

Damn, I'm training intensely myself, just need a few more months, then I'm in! It'ss hard to wait bro, but good things take time

More Cardio and fix your diet first.. Juice isnt the first resort diet 1# Juice is icing on the Cake

I feel your pain man, I hear ya... I've been researching this stuff for months now and the more I read the more I want to f**kin do it But I'd rather wait and do it right! Just fuel all that frustration and rage into your workout.

I've been contemplating trying longjack in the meantime, if it helps ya. I know, I know, I'm comparing gas to rocket fuel here, but shit anything that will keep me from shooting gear for a few more months, LOL, know what I mean?

i personally think you just need a better diet and cardio, you can run a cycle if you really want but steroids are not some miracle drug that will burn all your fat off of you. if i were you a would eat healthier and do a ton of cardio for 3 months then hit a cycle right before summer

totally agree, cut down on the fat and then you would be good to go, and fix your diet if it already isnt

Starting a cycle with the wrong diet could make you fatter, so kick the hell out all of that useless weight before getting gears.
