Noob question. Deca and testostorone.

[MadKlown187]

So i was reading up about Deca..a nd it was saying one of the side effects is it can lower your testostorone level by 100% and that it takes almost amonth for it to go back up and that they reccomend to take testostorone along with Deca.

THis was off the website Steroids.com

Here is the noob question.. i dont know alot about steroids.. but i thought steroids was extra testostorone you add to giv eyou the boost... what is Deca then? im confused.

First of all Welcome,
Deca is a 19-Nor compound, Deca has a very low rate of aromatization (conversion to estrogen via the aromatase enzyme), roughly equal to 20% the rate of Testosterone.
Basicly, it's test that has been modified to the 19th position, (could be wrong tho).
Deca will shut down your HPTA after two or more shots.

Gear, will only give those a boost as you call it when you natural potential has been reached, it will help others with minimal training experience gain lots of weight, and after all is said and done, you will shrivel and be almost where you were originally. Without a proper Diet and will power and dedication to yourself and your disipline, then all the gear in the world would not help.

What would you say would be best for gaining muscle but also keep you cut.

I am happy to hear that you want to wait. waiting at your age is the best thing to do. When you do decide to start a cycle at least you will have an understanding on exactly what you are doing and all the potential sides that you will or may encounter. At a young age, your natty test levels are still very high ( unless you have had bloodwork done and have found out that you have hypergonadism) then really there is no need for more than a great Diet and An awesome workout routine. Read, Learn, Train are your best friends for now. The guys here are bar none some of the most intelligent ppl round and can be the most informative group of folks to be around. You have def came to the right place.
Ok, PCT= Post Cycle Therapy.
