Whats up guys. I read the user agreement and hopefully after posting this thread I don't violate any of the forums rules. If I do then please let me know and I will edit it to resolve the problem. In other forums I have had some threads abruptly closed and deleted because of mild and innocent questions about AAS. I know this one is very direct and somewhat insulting to whoever wants to wear the jacket, but if you're a MODERATOR and are thinking about closing my thread, LET ME KNOW what is bothering you and I will change it. Have the respect of talking to me instead of taking immature actions.
I have been to many forums lately, asked many friends, trainers, and bodybuilders about AAS. I will tell you the conclusion after my short story. I will tell you why the bodybuilders I have encountered are liars. Keep in mind I don't want to offend anybody in this forum or that reads it. I also don't think that all bodybuilders like myself are jealous liars.
I have been lifting for over 7 years. Am not 27 years old and have never used AAS. All I have used is protein and creating. The usage of AAS never crossed my mind until about 5 months ago.
After over 7 years I feel that I have reached a plateau, that my metabolism is slower because I'm older, and that people have been lying to me ever since I started lifting.
MY STATS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 240
Arms: 18
Waist: 36
Body fat: 22% fat approx.
I'm very strong, and lift hardcore.
As you can see, after many years of lifting and cardio I have gained a lot of muscle, but have NEVER been able to loose the fat. Every year I keep getting a little bit fatter and fatter. A factor of this is my businesses. I run a couple of small businesses and dieting is hard because I travel a lot, go to lunch and dinner with a lot of clients, and sometimes have to binge due to deadlines I have to meet. Sometimes I'm so busy I can't even take a piss. Fortunately I am able to go to the gym 4-5 days a week for 1.5 hours.
"Why I believe the bodybuilding world has lied to me"
I have subscribed to many forums where I asked one simple question.
I have reached my plateau in muscle making. I can't loose fat that easy anymore, and I need something to AID in loosing fat without loosing muscle. What Steroids, pills, injections, herbs, or other stuff can I use to AID in fat loss and muscle retention.
EVERYONE has laughed and told me that there is no magic pill. Even though they are huge, shredded, strong, and clearly it looks like they are cycling something they still DENY the fact of using steroids.
They say that I'm just not dieting or working out correctly.
I have also asked bodybuilders that I know personally who are again, shredded, very muscular, and roided out who DENY the usage of Steroids. They say they just diet and work out very hard.
BS!! I don't believe that because I work harder than them in the gym. I lift very heavy, do super sets, increase the weight every week, and I actually sweat my AAS off (get it. lol) at the gym when I lift. Aside from that I do cardio and those liars don't.
So, out of all of the people that have amazing bodies that I have asked about steroid usage, 60% deny they have used any, 30% say they have done one cycle, but it didn't even work for them, and 10% say they do cycles every now and then and it has worked out amazingly well for them.
I have come to the conclusion that out of all the guys who have amazing bodies that I surveyed verbally that denied the usage of steroids; 25% are scared of the law, and the rest are just jealous pricks that want to be the only ones with a good looking body.
They simply want to keep their secret to themselves.
Magazines, TV, Movies, and everything you see about bodybuilding is fake. They say they are natural, but they are using lots of steroids.
They are just natural at the time of the contest.
So here go all the other people and buy supplements like crazy, try dieting, working hard, and never reach their goals. They don't reach their goals because they don't use AAS. AND if they do happen to get muscular and shredded they are going to end up with skinny arms. I have seen this many times. I see it all now. My mind is completely open now and I can see that there is really now way to have a bodybuilders body without steroids. Its impossible to have 20 inch arms, be shredded, and have a six pack that looks like rivers are running through it without steroids.... UNLESS you go to the gym 6-7 days a week, cardio every single day, diet every single day, have lots of money to spend on healthy food, and pretty much don't have anything else to do but workout and diet.
That's not the case for everyone. I don't get paid for having a nice body. I have to go out and talk with people all day, fill out paperwork, go to meetings, travel, date a couple girls here and there, tend to family, etc. I have many responsibilities and if some idiot tells me that he is just naturally built that way thanks to his family genes, I'm not gonna believe it. Not anymore. Thats because I have worked out like crazy in the past years, have dieted as much as possible and have dedicated 40% of my life to bodybuilding and exercise and not even that way have I been able to accomplish what these dudes have.
So, Am I lying to myself? Do I just have bad genes PERIOD? or is there a way to actually loose and keep the fat off while still making muscle? Is there a way of having a 32 inch waist, 20 inch arms, and look awesome while you hold an 8am to 5pm job? I ask because after working my ass off, dieting really good, and burning lots of calories every day I still haven't been able to look like this:

I want to see opinions. Cuss me out if you want, but I'm tired of hearing all this BS that I have heard for years. Also, please tell me about side effects like hair loss, Alopecia, Gyno, female features, Aromatization, etc. Also, for those of you who know, please tell us what would effect AAS would have on people that already have lost some hair, have Alopecia, have Gyno, have Acne, or whatever else.
Believe me. I have done my research... I know ephedrine might work, Anavar (Oxandralone), Primo, and other steroids might work. But what is your input? Everything says MIGHT, but nobody is willing to say that they have tried it and that it either worked great, or they had some problems.
By the way, please don't PAST anything you got off another website that teaches about steroids. I have read it all. I know what they do, I know the side effects, I know about PCT, and everything that articles say about steroids. I have been researching for a long time.
We don't want to see any of that anymore. Us guys that need advice DON'T want to see something like: Deca MIGHT make you some muscle and MIGHT make you lose some fat.
We need to get opinions from the guys that have benefited from usage of steroids, supplements, ephedrine, and whatever you did to succeed or get closer to your goal.
Oh, by the way.... After reading many forums I have seen these competitive Powerlifters who have horrible bodies, bad acne, ugly faces, and are bald give stupid opinions. Telling me that I'm doing it all wrong. Excuse me!!! The ones I have encountered are the ones with the worse bodies in the forums. So please, if you are a Powerlifter and think you have an amazing body with all your fat, DON'T even comment on this. We know its your job and that you want to be fat and ugly, but it wouldn't be credible if you gave us tips. Keep in mind that not all Powerlifters look messed up. Its only a large percentage of the ones I have encountered. I look up to many Powerlifters who have amazing bodies, and yes, a little bit of fat, but some of the other ugly pricks in the forums I have read or posted on get out of hand.
Believe me, whenever I have an amazing body I am going to help everyone I can and not keep things to myself.
