Hey hows its going im new to the community wanted to just briefly introduce myself and my goals here and what i hope to achieve. I just registered on here today but have been browsing the forums for the past week in a half trying to soak in as much information as i can. Any input/criticism on my views is welcomed and a learning experience for myself.
(please excuse the typos I'm not the greatest speller and i don't want to go back in forth to google page jsut to get the correct spelling of a word)
The names Pablo im 23 from Connecticut I work as a Financial Adviser, and Eve been lifting religiously on and off for the past 9 years as well as competing in sports (wrestling, jiujitsu, MMA) for most of that time. I really enjoy lifting and its one of my passions its not a chore its something that makes me feel good and enjoy setting goals and seeing how much I can lift and what achievements and weight i can surpass. I'm currently in decent shape and strength (above average but nothing to brag about) and feel that for the past 2 years ive reached my limit in gaining any significant lean size and strength without adding excess bulk and fat. I'm also someone who has a love for competing whether its sports or in work.
For the most part I've always been against steroids (or any recreational RX for that matter), I've always felt the social stigma of taking them were highly looked down upon (being viewed as a cheater or a fake) and the consequences (side effects) far outweighed the positive benefits. But I feel that now more than ever more people are getting into it (people i know and just people in general) and reaping the rewards associated with it without the harsh social consequences (if anything there viewed in a more admiring manner now that they have an admiring, brute physique) and rarely having any harsh negative side affects that are associated with anabolics. I've been seeing more and more that If taken properly and with the right Post cycle precautions Anabloics can be used safely without any dire health consequences.
Like I said before I've always had a competive edge and it absoloutly kills me knowing that someone who puts less of the effort and time in the gym, who doesn't have the same work ethic as I do, who hasn't been lifting nearly as long as I have, show up to the gym 2 months later with 25lbs of pure lean muscle mass no fat and brag about it. Ive seen it happen multiple times now and its not like these guys/kids are hardcore athletes or genetically gifted. Most of the time its just that they've gained those gains thru the use of Steroids. Now to each there own, if someone uses steroids that there own choice and I respect that but its becoming so intriguing to me know that I need to use them in order to get that body I always wanted and reap the benefits associated with them. And cmon who doesn't wanna look like a Greek god.
As superficial as this sounds unfortunately looks get you to alot of places in life. For woman ( I apologize to any female members if you take this the wrong way don't mean to offend) a nice boob job will get you a date or your foot in the door with that big shot lawyer. And Vice-Versa a body sculpted like a Greek statue will earn you respect in the business world, let some punk-guy think twice before he try to start a fight with you, get you that date with that hot blonde you always wanted. Is it any coincidence that so many Proffesionals and jobs are turning to steroids (ex. Police, Military, bouncers, sports, Models, bodybuilders, brokers/salesman,etc..they all need that edge in a particular way looks/strength/etc)
The point is I'm intrigued and this isn't an overnight idea I've been thinking of. I've been thinking about steroid use for over the past 6 months and I know now is the perfect time to start this journey. Who knows maybe after my 1st or 2nd cycle ill realize steroids aren't for me or maybe ill realize its the greatest thing since slice bread. Like a teenager first experimenting with pot or Alcohol (not that i'm condoning any recreational activities) its just something I need to do and decide whether to continue doing it.
Now with that being said.... I've been doing research on first cycles for beginners and it seems that a good starting cycle would be Testosterone Enanthate,either alone or stacked (most likely alone) with a anti-estrogen RX (nolvadex) and a PCT RX...any info or suggestions on what other good beginner cycles is highly appreciated.
