    IMO! 6 feet at 180lbs is still a bit underweight bro... you can go to 200lbs quickly with a proper diet, training and rest. How about cycle when you are 24 yrs old above. Just my opinion bro.

    Well, I will agree that as a bodybuilder its defiantly underweight. To the average Joe I have a really lean athletic physique, but its not really what I'm going for. at 6' to be anything worth a damn I gotta be 210+. Why would 24 be the age? I don't agree with it, but I had a family member compete in bodybuilding and win a lot of awards starting cycling at 16, back in the 70s, never had any issues, but was about 5-11 225 on stage, saw 250+ has a powerlifter.

    AGE
    In humans your Endocrine system is not fully functional until an average age of 25yrs, although the main development is up to around 21yrs it still fluctuates a little bit up to its fully functional age. There is a risk of permanently damaging your HPTA if you take AAS to young and you could end up with symptoms of andropause and HRT for life. Symptoms could be Limp dick, low libido, depression, low energy, low endurance, erection problems and many more but.......are these the types of symptoms you want to have in your 20's?. Believe me its hard to cope with these in your 40's yet alone in your prime of your life.

    Around this age your Testosterone levels are the highest they going to be in your life naturally, so use what you have and don't take the risk of damage, I am passionate about this because ive seen it many times with young kids wanting to looking like their heroes and they think the answer is in an injection/tablet.

    Taking AAS to young can also cause problems with development, one other main problem is premature sealing of your epiphyeal bone and the consequences mean that you wont grow as big as your genetics could allow you to, there is a test which can be done to see if your growth plates have sealed yet but the average age is around 21yrs old.
