    Impressive lifts for your age and only 6 months. Imagine where you will be 5-6 years?!

    Just don't think about steroids at your age, your dick can fall off, literally.

    Welcome, you're good bro but I can bet you can add 150lbs to your deadlift and squat each, without AAS, and around half that on your bench and OHP, without being a genetically gifted in becoming strong... You could learn more about training and nutrition here too not just AAS.

    Awesome numbers!

    Newbie gains are amazing. You've def got further you can go without gear. Good technique, quality food, and really strong mind-muscle connection will get you where you want to go.

    I will say this, as your beginning your journey.

    PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE YOUR FORM, AND TECHNIQUE on these lifts. don't worry about weight, you cannot perfect tour form and tech. with maxed out weights.

    you learn form early on before bad habits start. you will be powerlifting numbers in a years time.

    deadlift, bench, squat techniques are not only needed for big numbers, they are needed to stay pain and injury free.

    and injuries are not usually obvious acute injuries, they are chronic and build up over time, then one day you'll be 23 with blown out shoulders, bad lower back.

    form is everything

    Welcome to the forum. Great lifts for your age. As said above you should be able to gain quite a bit on your dl and squat with some more time. Also for lifting for a couple months your bench is pretty good. You could be a future bench beast. Keep it up.
