What do you say when people ask is your using steroids??

[Joey2ness]

I know there is a thread here somewhere about this.
Just curious...what DO you say when poeple notice how quickly you got bigger?

Im taking cell tech and nitro tech

Admitting to using steroids is not an option
The uneducated public believes steroids users have shrunken packages

[Timm1704]

depends who is asking, altho im usually pretty open about it. all my friends know, family know, and girlfriends, after awhile, il tell them. so far no problems. why insult peoples intelligence? i have afew friends who dont tell anybody at all, they even keep their gear at my house and i inject them, so nobody finds out. but its blatantly obvious to anybody who knows anything about steroids. they go very, very puffy in the face and blow up bigstyle, as they dont bother using anti estrogens. i think people at our gym MUST know im on, as il catch them staring at my traps/shoulders when we are in conversation, and they will very reluctantly say my shoulders are looking huge. some of them, if they asked, id tell them, as they likely would be able to tell anyway. they never ask, which is fine by me

[diezell]

just tell them ive been drinking my milk

[roccoswello]

When I first started I was walking through the gym with my source. We were working out and he just kept explaining everything to me. You know all the details of my first cycle etc. Talking about the particular brand of d-bol he had and how he didn't like it much. I kept looking around. There were ppl everywhere. What was this crazy guy doing. I didn't want everyone knowing I was on the juice. Maybe this was a bad idea. Finally he convinced me that almost everyone in the place was juicing. I thought it couldn't be true. But it was. I pointed out a 65-70 yr old man with some guns. My bro is like "Yeah, he does Sust." Same thing with the cops they do it too.

Some gyms are like that. I personally don't like everyone knowing, because then they assume you wouldn't be shit without it....

[MasterShake]

mastershake, im in the exact same boat as you. although i had a bottle of ZMA sittin out, and it says anabloic mineral support formula so she automatically thought i was using steroids, until i slapper her and made her read the back label. its amazing to see shows and hear stuff about steroids in the media and then hear the uneducated people youre with remark about it, i usually just bite my tounge and laugh to myself

Plus you can't stop people from believing everything the media says!!! The bottom line is that I don't give a fcuk what people think they know, I aint admitting to anything except hard training and supps! And will never tell the GF or she would want me to stop...

[duramaxedge]

lol Dont know but I need to figure out how to lie really good.. Gf was pissed about last cycle.. and I started a new one today haha..

[Auto54]

Abuse reported

[scotttiger54]

admit nothing unless its your wife or someone else of = importance. no one else deserves to know your anabolic supplementation regiment

[Rolsroyce]

just tell them you are working out harder,average people thing that the harder you train the bigger you will get.They dont know about diet and all that...

[godkilla]

i keep my buisness to myself except when it comes to my bodybuilding friends, they just have to see my puffy face and they know what the deal is.

[crazy mike]

This is an old thread. BUT I am curious since times have changed. I know that supplement use and science has come a long way and into the common acceptable grounds of home and society. SO where do you stand now.

For me I don't have a problem telling anyone I use steroids to aide my body with more Testosterone for the benefits in bodybuilding. I don't care if the average uneducated individual thinks that I only got this body by using steroids That is a misconception and I will discuss it if they want. But when society excepts a woman having breast implants and having lipo suction and other unnecessary cosmetic surgery, I think it is time they start getting educated (even if by me) that steroids aide my body to eat more, train harder and to work my a$$ off to achieve the look I have.

Most men will opt (if they can) to pay for boobs and more than not women in general would love to have implants so they look good. What about a nose job... what about that suction (cosmetic) to loose the weight to look better and not have to do any work.

Well shame on those people who are fakes and phony's with their implants and sucked thin bodies. I use steroids and WORK MY ASS off in the gym, and force feed to look the way I do. I am 62 and am feeling good and (I think) looking good. This I owe to more hard work then any of these phony fit people. Thanks. ...crazy mike

So haven't time changed ?? ...cm

I definitely agree with you that times have changed. I think cosmetic surgery is a great example of something that is very accepted in today's society, costs a lot of money and has only visual benefits. Now bring up steroids to those same people and watch them frown upon it.

I agree that steroids aid in a lot more than just merely visual benefits. Most people that use gear train much harder, eat better, are healthier overall, get blood work more often, etc - then your average person but main stream media has ruined steroid use. It's all steroid abuse, roid rage non sense and most people believe it all.

And for that reason alone Ill deny all day, everyday that I've ever taken any steroids. I have a lot more to lose then to gain by telling anyone.

If asked I say no and if asked how I put on so much size I always say diet because most of the skinny guys in the gym do not get anywhere near the amount of calories they need to grow works everytime... . Other juicers dont ask because they already know ;-)..

[testluva]

People ask me what I'm taking? I tell them "whey protein and BCAA"

[Captncavematt]

As we progress isn't it funny that people go straight from "Do you lift weights?" to "Do you take steroids?" I also think it's funny that most of the people in my gym assume that I do because I make progress, but I don't take them......yet. Truth is they do not train smart or hard, eat like crap, and underestimate their genetic potential.

[crazy mike]

Great responses for the more modern !!! Hee hee! ...crazy mike

[Capebuffalo]

I take a lot of iron supplements. They are called weights. I go to the gym and lift them. I do t sit on my ass and watch TV while eating potato chips. You sir should try it.

That's funny sh!t ...crazy mike

[diesel101]

When they ask I raise my arm flex it and scream "Boom, what do you think?" J/k

[Cuz]

way to bring it back from the dead cm. I don't think science and over the counter products have nothing to do with it, if any, the stuff now is weaker than the old days.

And for the matter, I usually don't hide it in the gym, we discuss what we run, have run, will run etc etc...but on the street I try to keep quiet just because I don't want people investigating me or a family member finding out.

and as stated, when others see you make progress, especially people outside the gym, they automatically assume you took steroids no matter what and its a waste of time to try to convince them otherwise.

nobody ever makes comments or talks about aas in my gym...there are to many cops there...are there no police that go to your gym?...id find out quick if I where talking openly about steroids there...just saying...you can never be to safe...

[Giggle]

Mike = this is great! Where did you find this old thread?
One of my old coaches posted above, and it was great to see his comments. You made my day!

One of the best answers I ever heard was from a IFBB pro - she said "lots of sex!" Shut the guy right up.

[Giggle]

I love your answer! People should listen.

[Hazard]

Steroids? What steroids?

I eat my wheaties......

That's been my response a few times haha

[kawasaki]

I say want to see my food bill . And I go to the gym 5-6 times a week . I don't drink alcohol and don't smoke . By this most say OK OK I get it . Other just say white boys don't get that big . So I just laugh ..

[cgi]

My answer to " Do you take steroids? " is always "not yet", and it's the truth too. I seem to get the question quite a bit. I hang around some juicers and we talk very openly about cycles and UGLs dosing etc so I think some people at the gym think I'm guilty by association.

[Cuz]

plenty of cops there bro....they are on juice too. And I have family ties to the locals there. I don't go wearing a sign on my back that says "hey im juicing come get me" lol.
I guess I should rephrase it and say me and my buddies talk about it, not just to anyone that walks up after are workouts ya know. But yeah, I feel ya. My town probably don't even have 20k people in it anyway, just a small spot on the map. If it wasn't so small and low key, like if I was in a big metro area...yeah then id keep my mouth shut. I probably should anyway but its too late for that.

[austinite]

Incredibly rude to ask. Ignore them.

Small towns are worse..... One yahoo cop decides to be a hero and you just made front page of the "suburban boonie times"

Big metro areas are waaayyyyy busier and they have too much to do to worry about a dude not selling. A friend of mine was busted in NYC with a bunch of illegal stuff. He went to central booking and sat there for 24 hours before someone came and said "you're out" - only to find out they had so much paper work and other shit to do that his "amount" didn't warrant the extra work for them.

[Hazard]

The only people in my life that know are family, close friends that use aas also, and my gf. Other than that..... No one needs to know. Its not at all that I give a rats ass what anyone thinks..... But if the wrong person finds out it could just give me more unnecessary trouble and I'm not about looking for unnecessary trouble

*edit* the gf only knows because she lives with me. There's no way for me to hide it. Otherwise..... I wouldn't say shit

[Sfla80]

Funny my regional director for work, asks everytime he sees me. He says it in a joking manor but u know hes always means it.

I just laugh and say thankyou.

[Cuz]

Incredibly rude to ask. Ignore them.

yeah I agree with you on that aust, they only do it to me out in public. But its been a while... since I quit growing, when I was it seemed like every other day some some dousche would ask me "hey man you taking steroids?" its always the ones that don't train.

[crazy mike]

This is so cool. I appreciate those who have commented.
When my daughter was over with the grand babies she saw a vial and a syringe on my bookshelf. She picked it up and looked at me. I smiled and she said " we all know dad". I said even your husband , she says , well what do you think, I have picture of you 6 months ago and who gets that big in 6 months...you're 62 years old !!"

Then I ask my wife about my other daughter who had seen me recently. She told her mother, "mom we know what he's doing, for God's sake what 62 year old man looks like that........Ha!!, haaa! What a gas ! WE all had a laugh.

So for me I don't give a shit. I try to do it the safest way I can. I study about it and like to think it's a science and I'm proud to be apart. My family knows how hard I work for what little gains I make even with steroids. ...crazy mike

I'm not that big of a guy, but innuendo does come my way from time to time, like at work for example.

the rule is to always DENY

[PetrX]

I just say I cross-fit ( obviously joking).. Even though i'm not really on steroids per say

[wmaousley]

People dont ask here, they all know everyone is using. Usually the question here is what are you using.

[JinNtonic]

I usually answer with, "Why? Can you get me some." Or "I wish".

[Bio-Active]

I'm not that big of a guy, but innuendo does come my way from time to time, like at work for example.

Yes always deny it and thank them for the compliment. I just say its all food and that I would be bigger if I was
