New guy from the Twin Cites MN

**Whiterob** · 01-29-2013, 02:24 PM

Ok so a little background on myself...

28 y/o 6'3" roughly 215lbs medium stature

Played hockey my whole school career, then after high school became an electrician. So I had burned lots of calories at work. Well wouldn't you know shit got slow so I sent my resume out to a ton of places and landed what is close to my dream job.. downfall? I sit on my ass for 8 hours a day. When I started here I was about 190 lbs roughly 12-15% body fat I would say. Well before I knew it, I was about 220 and around 22% body fat. That was as of about October. Started lifting with a buddy who is an MMA trainer and I went down to about 210, and now back to around 215 and roughly 18-20% body fat with more muscle than I had. I have been eating pretty healthy now as well and definitely notice what an improvement diet has to do with it. Looking for advice on "some sort of oral supplements to cheat my way into getting bigger. I lift 4-5 times a week for an hour at a time in the mornings.

I look forward to reading more and learning, so if anyone knows of any threads to help guide me in what to get it would be appreciated.

thanks

thanks for the welcomes. Trying to look for info that pertains to what I am looking to do. No such luck yet. I will get used to the search feature so I don't beat a dead horse with newbie posts. (if this were DJ or car stuff I would know what I am doing, but being I at 28 started lifting for the first time am an uneducated dummy)

after reading this from Muscle Ink, it has me second guessing my decision.. but hell I used to do a lot of dumb stuff when I was younger that were probably worse for my liver.

here are many other factors to consider in an oral only cycle other than the shut down.

Anadrol gains can be largely water derived and will disappear post cycle without a solid nutrition plan before, during, and after. You will be placing significant stress on your liver for which hcg will do little to compensate and liver damage is not something to take lightly.

PCT recovery is possible but every individual is different and there are certainly no guarantees. Your youth could be both an advantage and disadvantage because at 18, shutting down or destroying your own natural testosterone provides no assurance you will recover and I you don't recover, you could be facing the need for long term TRT, emotional issues (depression/anxiety), impotency, and decreased sex drive.

In general, oral only cycles are a bad choice for anyone.

Will you guys answer one question in here for me? Should I start a new thread in a different section on my questions about the gear, even though i am sure it has been asked a million times? I hate to be that guy, but I can't find the answers I am looking for
