Nearing end of cycle and decided to post a b4 and after..

[DGK]

I decided to use aas after a string of surgerys and health issues left me 30 lbs lighter then i was. I began my cycle of andro 275 in april and am finishing up soon. Just thought i would post a before and after to get some feed back.

Stats beginning. 170 lbs, 26, 6'
stats ending. 205 lbs, 27, 6'

Any thoughts, critiques, comments ?

How long was your cycle? 35lbs is a big difference but from what you are saying you just gained back what you had lost from surgeries? Wouldn't you have been better off relying on muscle memory and rebuilding at least some of it naturally first, then use AAS? Not flaming, just asking.

Added some size but you were far from ready to cycle

As said above it seems as if you just out back on the size you lost which imo you could have easily had those results naturally

[DGK]

SO this is a lil background. Before i went through chemo from 3/10 to 6/10 i was 195. After chemo no matter what i never reached my previous weight and build in the 8 months post chemo and b4 my last surgery in feb 11. Then from the pain meds thye had me on from the surgery that gave me that sweet scar i dropped back down to like 170 b y the time i was cleared for any kind of physical activity. Ik i was not "ready" to cycle but my body had been through so much in those 14 months and i was definately sick of being scrawny( reminded me of being a adolescent) that i made the decision to use.
Also from the chemo and everything else my sex drive was pretty much non exsistent, which of course made my gf and babys mother less then happy. I tried to go the trt route and had my doctors test my test and even though it came back extremely lower then it was b4 i had my first surgery where they removed my left testicle, they didnt want to start me on trt so young. So even though i was not ideal to cycle i have accomplished what i set out to do and that was get back to where i was b4 i began the cancer ordeal.

As far as to how long was my cycle. It is/ was 12 weeks. Of 550 mgs of andro 275 a week. With liquid stane for an ai and pct ready to go . Ik im not hulk hogan or anything but i definately feel 100 percent better , my sex drive has been through the roof, and i like being back up and a lil beyond where i was to begin with.

[Noles12]

Im sorry to hear what all you have been through. You did it and it obviously did some real good for you. Like i said you definitely look much better now and obviously feel better. In the end thats what is important

[DGK]

Thanks bro. I knew going into it , i was not starting with a good base buti accomplished what i set out to do. And actually thanks to being on cycle i am eating better and more then i ever was before. Im definately satisfied with the results and am stoked to keep at it off cycle then use this test 400 i have next time.(4 and a half months later)

Hey mate, good work - sounds like you went thru a lot bro and if you are feeling better and relationship has benefited then sounds good all round. Congrats on the gains.

[DGK]

Thanks man. appreciate it.

[Sulixe]

[Noles12]

good progress but i can see some gyno

Where?

[stevey_6t9]

good work mate.

[Bigd89]

good progress but i can see some gyno

Where at?? You said the same thing about my photos. Do you have gyno or something? All you do is belittle people.

[DGK]

Where do you see gyno. i was pretty sure i didnt have any. plus im on an ai..

[DFRELAT]

Good job man, your scar is nicer than mine! lol You guys saying he should've waited, he wasnt ready and what not, have no god damn clue what being really sick is! Sure he could've gained it all back naturally, after a year and a half maybe or even more! Just to get back to your natural 'normal' level can take 5-6 months alone, your body was so stressed and in shock from it, nevermind gaining all that weight back on top. If you ask me, they should prescribe anabolics a whole lot more! It drastically cuts down your recovery and healing time and gets you back on your feet faster. I don't want to hijack this thread so I'll just say that I'm talking from experience having had 7 surgeries myself so far!

[DGK]

Thanks bro and your right i did try after the first surgery and chemo to get it back naturally for 8 months. COuldnt get over 180.. I have accomplished what i set out to do with this first cycle. Now i ask again where does that one guy see gyno? lol

[Standby]

he doesnt see gyno dont worry about it. good job

[DGK]

Thanks bro.. appreciate it

[27300man]

I'm glad you accomplished your personal goal on your cycle! Good work bro!

[DGK]

thanks bro , appreciate it.

[oldschoolfitness]

bro you had some good reasons for the cycle imo. glad you feel and look better and i am sure the gf is happy now lol!! best of luck man you deserve nothing but praise.

[punish]

That gnarly scar bro, good job gaining your size back.

[X83]

Added some size but you were far from ready to cycle

I agree.

Do you normally have white nipples before and after?

[DGK]

can u read x83? i didnt cycle to become a pro athlete or compete or run faster jump higher etc...

Thanks oldschoolfitness and punish...

[Sicko]

It seems to me so often people are so worried about gyno that they have dillusions of what gyno is. Just becaause a man has nipples doesnt mean he has gyno!!! I had my nipples peirced about a decade ago..my body rejected them not thru infection or anything. The peircings, just over a year and a half periods time pushed out to the edge till i had to remove them. Or maybe it was just the freaky biatches tugging on them all the time.heheheh...Anyways the point is my nipples are twice as thick and long as they were originally due to the peircings...But that doesnt mean I have gyno...

Oh yeah sorry DGK, congrats on beating the cancer its great to hear/see stories like yours..Hope all stays healthy with you...

[Sulixe]

I do have gyno and can recognise it.

Pointy nipples= gyno
Puffy nipples= gyno

I see pointy nipples, like if there was a little lump right under the nip.

[tjax03]

Sorry but your reasoning is wrong. Gyno is the abnormal growth of breast tissue on a man. Nipple shape and size may or may not be dependent on this. Additionally, some people naturally tend to hold fat deposits on their chest, giving them the appearance of gyno. Unless the OP confirms the presence of hard lumps under his nips, then he most likely does not have gyno.

[DGK]

There is no hard lumps anywhere in my nipples or my chest. And like the above poster stated i too had my nipples pterced for a while until my body rejected them as well. I have no gyno...lol

Welcome to the cancer survivors' club. I'm 26 years post treatment. Chemo, radiation, surgery etc. I'm on TRT and thinking of a cycle later this year. Best of luck to you and congrats on your results so far.

[oatmeal69]

I think you did yourself a huge favor, you look MUCH better. Especially if you spent 8 months previous trying to get it back.

[PitMaster]

Good work man! Whatever it takes to get u back on top of your game. Some people get cancer will go through all the hell of radiation, chemo, infusion. It's a mindfvck and some will just lay down. You fought like a champ and kicked it's ass. I think if you continue train, it will keep a proactive approach to that sh*t coming back. I'm not sure in your case if that's even a possibility. I personally seen it happen to someone close to me and she just accepted it and waited to long to do anything on her own about it. I think you kicked some major ass. Good for you! I wish you the best.

[DGK]

Yeah this last time was my second battle with it in less then 2 yrs.. but **** it, i aint goin with out a fight..

[DGK]

Results almost done with pct... got a lil flab but i can burn that off quick like.

[DFRELAT]

You can check one of my threads for the whole story, but I've just been diagnosed with a major brain tumor cancer and I'm starting radiotherapy and chemo in about 2 weeks. What I'm really wondering is if the steroids will interect with the treatment. How long after can I start juicing again. Because its not the first time that I've been very sick and roids always made me feel great and helped me to recuperate so much faster.

[DGK]

Idk bro thats something u should ask ur doc..
