What did you look like BEFORE you started using steroids?

Haha cool thanks for the reply man. How long did you train for before you started using gear and what age did you start? It's such a temptation for me and I really want to believe that a great physique can be achieved without steroids

Also do you think that at my height (5'11") 185-190lbs at 8-10% bodyfat could be achieved naturally?

I started lifting weights religiously at the age of 14. Was always sort of the chunky strong kid. Lost the weight and held the low 153-160lbs for awhile. Started using gear around age 20 I think...the more I think about it I might have been 21, I honestly can't remember.

Yes, your goal is attainable naturally, but it will take time and it won't be easy. Saying it won't be easy isn't to discourage you, that's just stating the truth but it's not unrealistic. I'd like to think I could have done the same but I was impatient and had bodybuilding glory on the brain, which looking back is retarded glory, lol!

Patience is definitely the hardest part lol, do you regret starting gear at 20/21? Have you suffered any bad long term side effects from it?

No, I don't regret it or say I'm glad I did it. I'm indifferent. I'm on TRT now, which in my opinion I probably would have ended up on even if I had waited. You don't use gear for 10yrs almost non-stop and not end up on TRT. Do I regret that? Well, it's not like being on TRT really affects my life in any negative way. I take one injection of testosterone on Mon. morning and that takes all of 60 seconds. I also inject HCG on Mon. and Thu. so we're looking at a total time of 2.5min a week more or less. And in my opinion, prior gear use or not, many men over 30 will benefit from TRT and most all will over 40.

Other issues: no health issues. My hair is thinner on top, which would have happened anyway but probably a little later on.
