Honestly, how many lbs did you gain before AAS?

[Zyglamail]

Those are some pretty good gains. That motivates me to wait another year before juicing.

Zyglamail, Moe, gainerxxl: how many years did you train to get those gains?

I had a lot of ups and down inturupting my training (eye surgeries etc) but it prolly only took a few years. Making serious gains should come pretty easy if your in low 20's and can eat right. The problem so many people suffer when young though is they want to party, may have college etc and just a busy lifestyle.

started at 165 got to 205 naturally, took me 4 years. I'm 6'4, BTW. Been floating between 205 and 215 for the last 2 years, but, I am now bulking and am up 11 lbs in the last 3 weeks - got 7 more to go.

I was 235 when I started. I'm a mesomorph, so I bet I could've gotten even bigger. I just got impatient.

 

[Moe]

Let me see...started training at 18, and by 20 I had gone from 160 to 225. Granted, it was a fairly soft 225, but I gained the weight just the same.

Even now...I look better BELOW my max bodyweight. It's not always about just getting bigger, although that is what I seek.

I was a scrawny 135 when I graduated high school. put on 20 lbs naturally not really dedicating myself to lifting. Since getting serious put on another 30-35 lbs.

I started at 18 years old at 130lbs and now at 21 215lbs, put 50 lbs of LBM in 4 years. Still growing naturaly.

I started at 6'1" 160 lbs right outta high school. In two years I gained 40 lbs bringing me up to 200. BTW I weighed 256 last time I stepped on a scale(last tuesday).

I started to work out when i was 17. At that time, i was 6'4 weighed 205(i was high in bf). When i first benched, i put up 135 for 3. I worked out naturally for 4 years. I naturally put up 315 for 3, weighing 240 and toned. Now i am in week 8 of my first cycle of sust and deca weighing 265 and looking very solid. I hope i dont lose my gains after its over cause that would be bad

 

[thx9000]

I lifted for 7yrs natually before doing my first cycle.

I went from 180# and 18% bf to 207# and 7% bf before doing my first cycle this past fall. Too lazy to figure out the LBM gains.

I started at 6'3 144.5lbs January 26th on my 18th birthday (this was many years ago). By that May I was 190lbs and still had a 33inch waist, abs showing etc. Then I had a few set backs here and there. Once I got back into it, and didn't let things affect me, I went from 185-217 in 7 months. Then once I reached 219, I took the plunge and started using. I wish I wouldn't have. When I was dedicated and hungry for it, I was able to add weight easily, despite being naturally very thin. Who knows how far I could have gone naturally, my mistake. :/
