This is a big concern I have with AAS use in the present day. Too many guys saying things like "mild" or "just a little"

AAS is serious shit. It's meant for people who have busted ass, paid dues, and want an advantage. If people are looking for a minimal change then AAS IS NOT FOR THEM.

OP; your carrying 40 pound of fat, you can make some major changes with an overhaul of your nutrition protocol. Drinking will set you back faster than anything will advance you and add nothing but empty calories.
