What happens?

[superman15]

Im a newbie gettin info, this has never been really clearly stated for me. But if you take aas and you havent hit your genetic potential, after you get off of them can you still gain muscle and everything naturally? whats your input on that?

With the right diet, calories and protein intake, I don't see why not.

You should workout naturally until you are not getting much results anymore though. It's always highly recommended.

superman, i know you're gung-ho about doing a cycle so i'll give you an example that i feel is fairly representative for all young dudes.

i started on a mass routine in september of '83 when i was 17. yeah, i know, i'm an old fart... by the end of the following february when i turned 18, i had put on just over 25 lbs. and i was solid, not fat at all. that's in just under 6 months time, mind you, and it was all natural. i am by no means exceptional in this respect.

you see at that age us guys have the equivalent of nice cycle of test naturally running through our bodies. we're jacked. naturally. and that's no joke either. so with hard training, a boatload of food and enough sleep it's possible for most guys that age to do the same. so, given the high natural test, why even bother with aas? save your money, spare yourself the side effects, not to mention that aas are illegal. you CAN do it naturally, no doubt about it. and you can do it quickly too.

if any other bros have a similar story, please share it with superman. help this young bro see the light and, hopefully, make the right decision.

Do any side effects like hair loss stay with you after you use aas if that side does happen or does it grow back or what? i have gained 30 lbs naturally within 2 months, and it was solid within about 4 months. Now i stuff myself constantly and i am on a steady mass diet and it really isnt workin right now.

Ok, here we go, the side effects are not the same in everyone, we all respond different to ASS, now I started when I was 17 lifting weights and believe it or not bro, even without the proper nutrition and calorie/carb/protein consumption I made very good gains! I am talking side effect free gains, lean and hard solid, no joke bro. Why? 'cause at that age up until 23 or 24 our test levels are way up there and there is no need for ASS please believe me is true. I started using at age 28 when I hit my plateu after trying different training techniques and diets my body would not respond just like it did when I was 17, why? 'cause is a proven fact that testosterone levels start decreasing at a faster rate starting age 28-30, therefore fat accumulation in stomach midsection, energy is not the same and many more.If you chose to use ASS, well let me tell you that in some people sides start to manifest after end of cycle, that is why you should ALWAYS do PCT, it means post therapy treatment, this is to avoid the 'crash' when your body is not receiving more exogenous test, that is why you lost most of your gains and feel like shit if you do not bring your natural test production back.
I am not claiming to be an expert in this matter nor I am trying to preach on you bro, I am just sharing what I've experience hoping that it will help you clear all this up, remember we all react in different ways to ASS, I know a guy that does Deca only cycles and he never had problems, I doubted but hey! He does his PCT religiously after his cycle, if I do a Deca only cycle I will be impotent for a whole year maybe.

Good Luck Bro.
Peace.

IMO I think you can do just fine natural... most guys never even need to start using AAS when they do.. most look at it as a short cut, they don't want to put in the time and the effort...

But to make a long story short... I wouldn't advise using AAS if you're not allready at your genetic potentiol or you have no plans of ever competing.

Yes, if you cycle and then go off you can still make natural gains. I know people how have done it, however it takes severa, several months for your body to get back to a normal state. Meaning that once your body has higher test levels it does not like going back to normal levels. After a cycle you may not gain weight may for 9 months or longer. Then you can make gains again natural "if you hve not hit your genetic limit".
Problem is once most people gain from a roid cycle they will not wait that long to make natural gains again. This is why this is so adictive for most people.
As far as sides, most sides stay with you forever. ex. hair loss, gyno, body hair gain.

If you gained 30lbs in 2 months (I'll call bullshit on that), then why do you think you even need AAS? Pay your dues, bust your ass, and have some patience!

hey hardcore you obviously aint hardcore if you have never heard of someone gaining 30 lbs in 2 months. I started dieting then and i bulked up fast. There are plenty people on this board im sure that have gained close to that when they first started on a good diet.
