For me it was the strength boost that got a hold of me. Some people are naturally strong And then there's me, I'm at the complete opposite end of the spectrum.
Killing myself for months straight just to put a couple pounds on a lift, And the lift is not even close to average anyway.
Then a friend Who's never worked out before in his life will want to come to the gym with me as a guest. Then this asshole proceeds to lay down on the bench and push 280 for reps raw.
I had to work for almost 2 years to get 2 wheels on a bench.
I've busted my ass to the point of exhaustion, I know what central nervous system fatigue feels like. I am told again and again that I look a lot stronger then I actually am.
So when I did my first cycle and by week 6 I'd put 40 pounds on my bench with ease, there was no turning back!!!!!
Of course I like looking nice but, for me it really is about picking up heavy as shit!
There's just nothing like it, that feeling that surges through your body after a heavy ass squat or dead lift with perfect form, I can't even describe it really, you'll have to experience it for yourself
