If you really want to blast, just do it. I'd only advise against if you're still a teenager. You're unlikely to damage your fertility (unless you already have fertility issues), and I think you're more likely to bounce back (in terms of HTPA recover) because you're so young. Maybe that's wrong, but that's what I've heard.

I'm 21; I started at 20. I BnC though. Best decision I've made, even if it means TRT (though I doubt it). Plan on running a long PCT when I'm done, and if it goes well, great, if not, TRT route.

Man I remember when I was 21 and knew everything, Life was so much easier. Let eq that you’re advocating BnC at 21, lol you’re retarded.
 
Age: 21
Height: 6'3"
Weight: 210lb
Gym Experience: 4-5 yrs
Goals: to get bigger. Lifting is my main hobby. And minimize / eliminate the risk of permanent fertility / HPTA damage (with proper PCT and using hCG)

Cycle:
Wk1-12
Test E 500mg/wk
hCG 500iu/wk

Wk 1-14
Arimidex 0.25mg EOD

PCT: (14 Days after last injection)
Wk 14-18
Clomid 75/50/50/50
Nolvadex 40/20/20/20

Thoughts?
I look up to people like Chris Bumstead and Larry Wheels... They're both 22. They also have 1/1000000 genetics. Anyone else out there experienced with AAS in their 20's?

You should probably wait a year or two minimum and spend a lot of time researching what can go wrong. I’m not talking about getting advice from retarded 21 year old, I’m talking about searching google scholar and other real sources of knowledge. Then you’ll know what to do in most circumstances and how to maximize results. The only way to avoid risk is to not partake in AAS at all. I get almost zero sides from most things yet I have friends that lose hair and get gyno on 300mg test and they pretty much know nothing on top of it. You don’t want to be that guy begging everyone at the gym for letro.
 
Something else thats not been touched on yet with all the back and forth...
Op...you said this is a hobby...and thats great!
But the decision to cycle at your age is one that will affect you the rest of your life and it could be in a very negative way.
Depending on the individual most young males endocrinal system...the thing that pretty much regulates your entire bodys metabolism reproductive system and to some extent nuerological system...does not fully mature till around 25 yrs old.
Introducing aas and exegenis hormones at your age can limit that development or shut it down completely.
So when we say someone is too young and shouldnt cycle....its not a slam about maturity or being a grown up...it an actual concern us old guys have for your physiological health.
 
From my experience if your not planning on making a living doing this, and your natural testosterone levels are fine, don't touch gear until your older. You mentioned this was a hobby, and if thats that what it is great, but id wait until it graduated into a lifestyle before adding gear to the mix. My brother did a cycle at 20, after pct had some bad panic attacks and felt mentally and physically terrible , now he's 21 on trt and probably will be for life. Its no longer a hobby when you have to inject yourself with synthetic testosterone for the rest of your life.

You don't have to be after a carrier in bbing or even after muscles to start injecting AAS.
Some like me are doing minimal amounts of anabolics and high amounts of androgens for the mental boost and the greatly improved quality of life.

To each their drug. Some do coke or meth to get their high, I get mine from Masteron.

Not sure my choice carries more risk than a methhead's

He said his goal was to get bigger..
 
When I read some of the posts on here, and other forums, by some of the young guys, makes me glad I didn't start using AAS till I was 53.

At 53 why did you start running cycles bro, health Should be #1 as you get old. I think that's just as bad as starting young. When I'm 50+ I sure as hell won't be cycling.
 
Yeah you're probably right, shouldnt call him bro. He's 50 something he could basically be my grandfather lol
And I feel certain you won't look nearly as good as me in your 50s LOL. And by the way, a lot of pros from the 50s, 60s, and 70s who have died , the vast majority lived long lives. I believe Arnold is now in his 70s. It's only been in recent years that drug usage went right over the top, and now we see a number of pre-mature deaths.

"Bro"
Because in reality we didn't take the short road to success. We learn how to eat, how to sleep and how to lift. We learned the why's and the nots. We made mistakes and we made epic gains, without gear. We learned a craft. Then as we aged and had reached our genetic peak,we pushed it farther. 99.99% of you kids have no clue what you're doing. More is better, bang a gram of tren. It's evident by your questions and those of all the other kids. Your looking for a short cut. You want to get ripped in 6 months to impress some whore. As you yourself are a whore. Instant gratification bro. Product of your environment

Beautifully said. That's an outstanding way of putting it, when approached in a mature, patient, measured way, this thing called "bodybuilding" truly is a "craft."

Thanks. There's so much learn. It's a craft.
