Steroids [Yes/No]

[Zerkerfist]

No, I don't think that, you can get small buff without steroids, but if I want to get to Vin Diesel/Batista/Dwayne Johnson size, yes, I would most likely need steroids.

Not necessarily. I have watched a few body builder shows before or read a Mens World magazine while at the grocery store waiting for a prescription from the pharmacy, and there are tons of male professional body builders who build their bodies up to incredible sizes, all without the use of illegal drugs such as steroids. If they were caught using steroids, they would be disqualified and would not be able to compete.

So my point was that it IS possible to get that big without steroids. There are also alot of other factors involved, including genetics and the body type that you have already (if you are already sort of "square" shaped and a big dude already, you will have a much easier time bulking up than say, a little skinny 16 year old kid). Personally, I would think that the most important things to do to get big and buff fast, would be to follow an extreme exercise and diet plan. Professional body builders have personal trainers, and literally work out all day as if it was a full time job. They eat snacks that are exploding in protein constantly throughout the day in between workouts, and are limited to certain types of foods, a certain amount of calories etc etc. Its much more complicated than it looks, and there is alot of hard work that goes into it.

But anyways, this is getting WAY off topic and I did not mean to come in here and start a big debate about something that is really not all that relevant to your original topic So I am just going to drop it.

You came here and asked for our opinions on whether you should use steroids or not, and it seems like everyone has unanimously agreed that we DO NOT think you should use them.

How old are you? It's your choice if you do them or not, but there are health risks without a doubt. It weakens your joints, making you more susceptible to serious injury and in order to stay that big you will be needing and wanting to hit the gym quite often. People have been addicted to steroids, not to mention it can/will drastically alter your personality.

Granted not everyone has had these problems from taking them, but what makes you think it might not happen to you? Or are you just really willing to take that risk? They are highly illegal and just because they advertise them in bodybuilding magazines with discreet names doesn't mean anything. If the police really want to bust you with steroids or HGH they will. It's a long discussion that could go on for a while. Just really, really think about it.

Edit: If you're planning on joining the Army, then stay away from steroids. They will show up on a piss test for something like 3 months. You don't want to risk joint damage with a plan to go into the Army. I'm pretty sure any joint damage or certain sugeries are disqualifying, so when you go to MEPS or see a recruiter, and they find out, you're done and that's it. No Army anymore. You will get plenty of exercise in the Army as it is. If you want to join the Army, just wait till then to get some exercise.

> I'm probably going to use some cutting steroids and then some bulking steroids
wat...

you bulk before you cut bro.

Honestly, i'd be all natty, when you're all natty you have a sense of pride and dedication, not just someone loser who was weak and cheated.

They say steroids are the cheat code for life.

Do you really want to be that guy?

I knew a friend who took steds. He had some problems when he was taking them.

Also, it causes liver cancer. Also, causes increased breast tissue, diabetes, shrinks testes size etc.

Not work it, protein is your friend, not steds.

I have taken steriods, and finally snapped out of that habit. From my experience I think it would be much better to just get a creatine drink mix from Walmart, along with the creatine pills. Steriods make you love the results, and you want to take more. After you keep getting use to them, you will inject more, and the more you take the less friends you will have due to the way you act.

I know people are like, "I will not take any more that is suggested." I was one of those people, and then the effects started become to normal for me, so I kept taking more. NOT A GOOD IDEA TO DO STEROIDS..

There's like one pro and like 10,000 cons:

Pro:

You'll be bigger and stronger quite fast.

Cons (To name a few):

Your muscles will develop too fast for your ligaments and tendons and you'll probably injure yourself within the first month.

Your balls will shrink: so with your new body you got that hot chick into bed but she walks out the moment she sees your tic tac.

You'll become an asshole. (roid rage)

You have to inject yourself. (ow, lol)

It'll show up in a drug test at one point in your life, so you won't be able to join the army, lose a job, etc.

And the list goes on and on...

I'm a skinny 16 year old in the process of bulking. If I wanted to be a bitch, I'd take roids, instead I've weighed the pros and cons and realized that it's simply not worth it. Creatine, whey protein before and after workout, casein protein before you go to bed, jack3d pre-workout, and a multivitamin is all you need.

I don't see the point to be honest. Wouldn't you like to bulk up naturally? It's really not that difficult. If anything, stick to creatine or something a little less harmful. My brother has been working out intensely for about a year now and uses a variety of powders and substitutes (even used creatine for a couple months) but never steroids. He's managed to become pretty damn big though.

 

[Garbear]

wanna know my honest opinion? You are a FUCKING moron if you do that.

Are you competing for a 25-million dollar contract like a professional athlete? How about a championship like Ryan Braun? Being enshrined in history like Roger Clemons? Thats what I thought.

I gained 35 lbs of mostly muscle in 2 years by just working out 3 out of the 7 days. I eat a lot of protein, thats all you need if your body is made for it.

My dad weighed 130 in high school and benched 230, sorry for coming off egotistical, but he is exemplary of what hard work can do for you if you just dedicate yourself to hard work.

Your balls shrink, not your dick so how would it be a tic tac, and it does NOT show up on a drug test and roid rage isn't an issue.

I went on something called M1T in my 3rd year of highschool and I can say without a doubt I regret it. I was only on them for two months really as a test to see if my benchpress would go up a lot, since a few guys at my school had gone up 40 lbs in a week on their benches with it.

I had bad cramps, angry at little things, was always pissy over everything. Ontop of paranoia that some serious health side effect would happen to me.

Don't do it, dieting and exercising is more then you need especially at a recreational teenager who lifts.

If it doesn't show up on drug tests, how do people get caught for taking them? =| >_< :huh:
