The young and Steroids

[lovbyts]

I see all these posts here with people around my age (21) saying they are thankful to have seen this post as they will reconsider cycling for a couple years.
I'm not here to say you're wrong for making that decision. Not at all.
But.
I haven't started cycling yet, but am planning on it sometime this week.
I have 4 friends who have all done the exact cycle that I will be starting, and so far they are all fine. PCTs are important and ensuring you are not trying to overkill what your body has potential for.
What I mean by that - If you're 6 feet tall and skinny as hell, don't cycle until you put on some size.

I won't go on and on, but what I'm saying is this.

If you're smart, and you've done your research, and you have the body type to be able to cycle without ****ing yourself up. Don't be afraid to do it because you're too young. Everyone is different.

Please re read what you posted and think about it. Your friends are around your age meaning they dont have much real world experience either and you/they are only looking at the short term pros vs cons. Sometimes people dont realize there is anything wrong for months or years and some never put 2+2 together.

People who are saying to wait are speaking from experience and know there can be serious long term health issues especially when you are young. Going on HRT is not a fun thing when you are only 30 and have been suffering with low T for years due to the being young and arrogant thinking; it wont happen to me.

In the en it's up to you what you do or dont do but it's one of those things where IMO the short term gains are not worth the risk and I am glad that I waited.

I was the same way and was close to doing the same. I was in great shape working out 6x a week for 3+ years. I would have been 2x the size if I had a real clue about diet but there was no internet available for easy access like there is now. I had even purchased gear when I was 23 but at the last minute I decided not to go forward with it and thank god I didnt.

As you get older, more mature you always look back and realize how immature you really were just a few years back and usually regret the impulsive decisions you made even though at the time you felt like you thought it threw. Just be honest with yourself and dont give in to peer pressure or following the pack mentality.

I was going to reply but looks like you summed it up for me.

Ha, for once I posted first? Most of the time if I write more than 1 sentence by the time I hit post you have already replied and mine looks like a cheap copy. lol

Take a look at my post shortly after.

There's a reason why steroids are illegal in most countries. Based on your reply to my post, you're smart enough to figure out the answer as to why they're illegal on your own.

Yes, my friends have so far had no problems, and yes there is plenty of potential for them to have problems in the near future but so is there for everyone. No matter how old you are, there is always a chance that you will have issues when you are older. Low test, depression etc.
My point is not "Go do steroids kids, it's not as bad as people say it is". No.

Its be cautious, be smart, and know your body.
