Why stack?

[Atomini]

Ok this is admittedly a very newbie Q but I have been reading for several days and don't see a clear answer to this.
Why stack? If one thing is bad for you why do another equally bad thing for you thing at the same time?
I am thinking about a short cycle to try and gain about 10-15 lbs.
40 years old
5'11'' 165 I work out at least one hour a day 6 days a week at least two of those are cardio. pretty cut but it is really hard to gain any chest or biceps. easy to put on Thigh and back for me. I eat 2 or 3 whey shakes a day and otherwise a balanced low fat diet.
I guess I am pretty needle phobic and am wondering about using only one oral for a 3 -4 week cycle.
Thoughts?

Define "bad".

ANYTHING can be bad for you. It all depends on how you use it and how much you use.

God, I hate broad vague statements like these.

Bad, lets see: liver toxic, bitch tits, impotence, how long a list do you want?
My point was that it seems to this newb that as little of this as you could get away with would be what we all would want. asking more if there is potentiating of effect or are we trying to balance side effects or what.

Sorry if the word bad offended you.

All 3 side effects you listed there can be completely avoided through proper use via ancilliaries, and educating yourself on proper use, etc.

What I have learned from bodybuilding for 8 years is that:

Everything is bad for you

and

Everything is good for you

Like I said, it all depends on how you use it, and how much of it you use, whatever it is!
