    Don't take this the wrong way, but you don't look like somebody who is even months away from being in any condition to compete on stage. You need to put a lot more lean mass on before you should even think about it. I'm not trying to cut you down, I just think you should be realistic about yourself and your plans.

    I think you're at least a few years away from being ready even on a lower level.

    If you are going physique, you need to get very lean. I see nothing wrong with starting in the amateur division. It is a good experience.
    Donkey is right that you really can’t expect to compete against the big boys.
    What weight class?

    I started bodybuilding at 165 and very small in a local competition and placed third. I am 230 now I compete around 215….. and I’m 55.
    You can do anything you want if you are willing to put in the effort.

    I sang for many years, was in Glee club in college...ect. I had very average genetics and did not train as smart and hard as I could have. I got over it after some time.

    That being said, I respect and will help anyone who I think deserves it. Only posting about drug cycles and what ever else you have said is fine but it tells me literally nothing about you. One or two photos from the waist up, no back shots, no training program history or info, no eating/diet information, well Nothing.


    I wish I was Luciano Pavarotti , I am not, I wish I was Ronnie Coleman, but I am not. Life is not fair, get over it and move on. Drugs will not change this, it sucks but it is the truth.

    I'm just giving you my honest opinion. Your chest isn't very good shaped/developed/defined, your abs are nonexistent. Your shoulders are small, your traps aren't good. Your arms aren't really that big. Who knows what your legs and back are? And you need to cut a lot (which will make your size go down since a lot of that isn't muscle).

    I'm not trying to be mean to you either, just realistic. If your goal is to compete hire a coach to help you with your diet and training. And you'll need a coach to help you with posing (and you need to work hours on in on your poses).

    Also comparing yourself to some noob that can get stage-ready in 6 months isn't fair. Everybody has different starting points, different genetics and different training/dieting programs. I'm not telling you to give up on your dreams, just be honest with yourself.

    You really need to make that decision. If you are willing to run the risk of not having kids and being in TRT, You can do the cruise. If you want the least risk and the least growth, you can PCT and lay off for a period.
    I started out naturally and realized that I could not keep up. I also started competing at an older age ( 45) which brings its own challenges.
    You are in for a ride if you want to compete. Prior to competition, your mind plays games with you. One minute you look great and the next minute you look terrible.
    You need to be willing to spend a lot of time with cardio, meal prep so you always have the right food.
    Most of all, you need to learn how to pose. You need to learn how to expose your strengths and hide your weaknesses. I personally do some forms of poses that no one else does which hides a weakness and exposes a strength.
