Well I did take them for about 3 years..I would do 6-8 weeks on...then 4 months off...thankfully looking back what I was taking was just a tiny fraction the amount other guys were taking .. True, some people go to far don't they On the small amounts that you had did you see benefits in strength n recovery Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The thing is though the general public think go to the gym...bang a bit of gear in you ...eat chicken broccoli rice and 6 month later you look like Arnold... That's far from it...those guys at the top and even the ones not at the top dedicate every thing to it... Me personally I saw gains ...but they were no where near as great as I thought it would be...and baring in mind I did eat the way I described...and my training partner at the time was arguably the best female bodybuilder in the UK.. and by Christ did she train hard...it helped that at that time I worked in her gym as well..so I was surrounded by it all 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you mean internally?...then not at present my blood pressure is normal..my cholesterol is normal...and my resting heart rate is low..around 53.. I've never done a full blood work thing perhaps I should...but I think my natural testosterone would be normal in as much as I don't suffer any of the symptoms associated with low testosterone...so hopefully I haven't done to much damage...only time will tell I suppose 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Borr 4,502 Posted July 16, 2023 Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 The rock juiced to the eyeballs as someone said has ruined more films than he's made , I find myself paying through the hilt for films I grew up on Spartacus, vikings, Jason and the Argonauts etcs but at least we can all enjoy, otherwise it's black Victorians made up malarky or swearing aimed at kids or dumbed down comedy. Juice is everywhere rugby , Jujitsu, they need to put a stop to it otherwise it's just chemical sports , I understand you need a competitive edge but if it's policed and not a norm then youngsters have half a chance at success without injections Quote Link to post Share on other sites
