Hey All,
New here but been at it about 20 years, 12 years enhanced and homebrewing the whole time. For the last ~10 years, just for myself, so purchases of raws are few and far between, and I find myself in a situation needing a new raw source after my old reliable hasn't answered an email going on 2 weeks
. Though after skimming for a few days, I'm starting to come to terms with maybe paying more for domestic finished product for a while - play it safer and try to keep my life intact until there's less attention on the border or I can find a reputable one with US warehouse. Will keep lurking.
Anyway, I was a skinny kid interested in bodybuilding in my early teens, starting lifting in gym class and eventually got my mom to drive me to a regular gym on the days I didn't have gym class. The first summer that I lifted "seriously" (or as much as a teenager could), I added about 25 pounds. Pretty much immediately plateaued thereafter lol. Left my small town for college in a bigger city, got connected to the right people in both the bodybuilding and powerlifting worlds. Having been stalled out on BW for a while, I gravitated toward powerlifting.
Stuck with powerlifting for a long time and did also start to work my weight up slowly from about 185 to 195 lbs over a couple years naturally then started gear after a young NPC guy taught me how to make it and showed me some places online for reference - got over the 200lbs BW hurdle. I competed a few times over about a 9 year period, last time was ~3 years ago. PR comp lifts were 572, 374, 550 at 198. Never figured out how to peak, naturally my gym lifts are better - 640, 420, 615 and I was about 225-230lbs at that time.
Today, I am tired of nagging joint pain and the occasional (frequent) muscle strains, so I don't intend to compete any time soon. Still train moderately heavy but always with 0.5-1 RIR rarely going over RPE 9, almost never using a straight bar for squat or bench, and doing a lot more intentional volume at lower intensities. Started rockclimbing(??) so just keep my BW around 203 because I can't get over the mental hurdle of being under 200lbs - worked too hard for too long to let it go. Decent though I think for my weight and ~3 years experience limit climbing in the low to mid 5.11s in the gym and high 5.10s outside.
Knew for a long time I'd use drugs eventually but didn't start until my early 20's and having a good base of strength - my bench and deadlift sucked but I know I was squatting 485 before touching anything. First ever cycle was 8wk 200mg mast only and I think the psychological or placebo effect would have been enough I was so excited; never ran another cycle without test and have gone all the way up to just over 2g/wk total at times - have used deca, dbol, adrol, tren, var, winnie, mast, EQ, and halo (didn't cook the halo; considered crushing it up and making a cream to be a rage machine without liver tox but never have). HGH and/or BPC when injured depending on the severity; have tried GHRP's but the real thing is better, no need for em imo - no other peptides. For the last few years, I pretty much just run 6 weeks on 500mg/wk Test C and 300mg/wk Tren A and 6 weeks cruising Test. Some summers I'll toss in 40mg/d winstrol for the vanity.
Early 30's now and getting an itch that hasn't gone away for a few weeks to see if I can do any damage in a physique sport. Maybe classic. Undecided.
Wrapping it up with I don't expect to post much, but who knows. Thanks for having an active forum.
