my opinion , and thats all this comes down to, "opinion" , is that purposely holding off on taking AAS when your purposely trying to bodybuild and build an awesome physique, is just being sub optimal .
its like having a Ferrari and not putting the best performing tires on it . or its like saying your going to optimize your training and then following a sub par shitty program, or with your diet your purposely not buying high quality food . your purposely not enhancing your performance and recovery and maximizing gains. your choosing to be sub optimal .
natty bodybuilders are 'naturally' content with having sub par mediocre physiques . they could easily chose to optimize things (like AAS use) and make themselves much much better, but they are simply content with average and mediocre . thats their personal choice.
I however am not really like that. I generally choose to optimize the hell out of stuff.. if I'm going to put the effort in to diet and train, then I'm going to also optimize recovery with AAS . my sports car does not have budget tires on it , it has the same set of tires that come on the new lambos, it has 6 piston Brembo brakes, and Recaro racing seats. things that optimize its performance.. where as my father in law would be perfectly content with a bone stock Toyota Corrola.. he's also the type of guy that uses an old set of Adams irons that I gave to him to play golf with, where as I'm going to use a top of the line set of Mizzuno forged irons. if he was a bodybuilder, he would likely have the mind set to stay natty. he's totally content with sub optimal performance in all aspects of his life
