I am 21 year old college student, who has been working out for 9 years. I was a competitive powerlifter in High School, but have just recently for the last 8 months been "training". I have been trying to bulk up, gain weight, muscle, size, and to gain more all around strength. I have been using creatine and HMB supplements ( no xplode, cellmass, HMB pills) starting last august and in the for the first five months gained 25 lbs. and bench max went from 165 to 225. But for the last to months I haven't seen anymore gains. Any suggestions, I have been looking into steroids and the process since last august mainly at this site it has been very helpful and easily silenced my questions I contemplated asking back in October about the Bulking Stack pack rip off from some companies. I train 5 days a week, have the time and the dedication, I really guess I am just looking for more of an edge. It also seems like the more I eat now it just goes to my gut and if I do an ab workout or more cardio I lose weight and Muscularity.
I am mainly looking for opinions on if it seems like the time is right?
