i started looking into gear as a magic pill, but the more i learned about gear, the more I learned about how to make gains without it. So I started making my first real gains not because of gear, but just by researching it!
with that said, I plan to do a sust cycle sometime in the near future and I guess it's cause i feel i'm too small/skinny. I think that's why everyone takes it, because they want size (assuming we're talking about bulking gear, not cutting gear). I think people WORKOUT to better their self confidense and most of the other things you listed, but they take steroids to increase their size, meaning they feel they're too small.

that's my 2 cents anwyays.
 
i was a skinny ass whiteboy frickin 6ft tall 150lbs now i am 210lbs, main reason to wanna get big was for chicks and intimidation...nothin like gettin pussy and kickin ass:D
 
after doctor after doctor & spin thousands$$$$ my body start to fail me at 27 of age, at age of 32 i was dienose as a 62 year old.
now i do my own doctoring & i got better :angel:
 
I planned on using roids when I first started working out 8 yrs ago. Lifted for 5yrs researched for 1yr, been using for a little over 2yrs. I guess it was a childhood dream/goal. LOL
BTW: I'm 21
 
i Blew a disc out in my lower back that required surgery when i was 24 years old. that made me realise that i wasn't invincible and it started to wear on my self esteem. not to mention i have been married since i was 20 and i will be 29 next month its nice to have the girls checking me out and making me feel like i still got it.hehehe!
 
I've always liked to be different than everyone else, I love working out feeling and looking good. I love women and I'm a strong believer in good psychological heath. I even think its more important than physical health in some cases. If you have a high self esteem you always feel good ,you enjoy life much more. Think about it, how many people have low self esteems because they don't feel they look good, what kind of life is that. Don't get me wrong I never thought of my self as ugly but now I walk in the room and think no one looks better than me. AS has helped me enjoy my life more than I ever have before. I feel good both physically and psychologically.
 
I couldn't make anymore gains naturally after reaching 47 yrs old ...so BAM!!!!
 
Want to look good for me and always keep the spark with the girl.
But remembering never let the head get big.

Kev:)
 
I wanted to get them in highschool to enhance athletic ability but I couldn't get them anywhere. Then I got to college and it was like a kid in a candy store. I just wanted to be the best looking dude around. BamBam
 
Worked difficult construction job all summer and needed a way to keep weight on for football camp. Eating and lifting just weren't cutting it. Deca cut it.
 
Well I started because I love lifting and gaining size. But at first I wouldn't touch steroids because I beleived all the hype about them. But the more I read the more I wanted to take them. I mean it just seems natural if you like doing something your going to do whatever it takes to make you better.

This is one of the reasons roid heads piss me off. Most of the replys here have been to get girls, respect from guys, etc...

There should be three answers given.

1. I started for myself, my choice, my decision
2. I've been training for years and gains had stopped, which meant it was time to gear up.
3. To increase athletic performance in a sport


I mean shit, if the only reason you are putting drugs into your body is to impress girls, than I personally think you're pathetic.

I am going to take juice because I have become tired of buying sports supplements that do not do shit. Even when I have taken 2-3 dosages to get more of a kick because I am not a newbie to lifting. These new transdermal prohormones = crap I am not about to give this sorry company a free add but the claims were to gain 8-20lbs of muscle, I gained 6 lbs, 4lbs fat 2 lbs muscle. For the price I payed, which was a great deal I could have taken a Deca or Eq cycle and gotten guarenteed results. When I finally finish checking on suppliers I look forward to useing the products that work.
 
Several factors....

I trained on and off, but maybe never with right diet and technique.

In any case, I was curious. I had a buddy who used them regularly and looked damn good. He gave me training tips and helped me get my first cycle of Dianabol.

He was a wealth of info. Lots of bad data I got from doctors was replaced with sensible info I could use. I decided that the potential benefits outweighed the potential risks enough to give them a try.

Of course, the stuff's too expensive to use them often. Another trend is that I used to be Mr. Straight-and-Narrow for many years. I've learned the system sucks, and those who break the rules often get ahead just as well or better than those who play by the rules.

So, I said, "F*** the rules. I'm doing what's right for me for a change." ;)
 
The US Government

I was told by the media that steroids where evil and dangerous! :devil:

That was all the encouragement I needed to start my first cycle! :)
 
Man I was really curious for a long time and I didn't know a lot about it I just thought they were bad. Until my boy had to give me a lot of info and I wanted to get swollen cause I love to train.
 
Better performance as an athlete. New a few people that took them in highschool. I never did but now that I am in college, it seems all the athletes are using. Funny one of you saying like candy in a candy store. I am too afraid to ask the wrong person at school. I keep to my self and use out side help.
 
I decided that I would do prohormones. Then I did some research and found that you could get shitty results, but some of the same side effects. So I said fuck it, what's stopping me from doing roids? If you're going to do it, do it right.
 
wanting a college scholorship, because my family was to poor to pay for college.

thanks!

You guys rock! I appreciate your input. I started juice after 10 months of working out. I worked out before for about 1.5 years and quit like a bonehead - I hit a wall and could not get past it. I would have never considered juice but one day I hit a wall and could not gain or budge an ounce more. I looked into the safest steriod on the planet - primo depot and have had some pretty good gains. I may try some test in 6 months after I complete the cycle I am currently on. I still have 5 more weeks to go on this cycle of primo only. I am itching to see the final results.
Thanks Again.
 
I always wanted to see what AS can do for me, now that I finally got sources I have tried it and LOVED IT!!! I believe its one of the best decisions I have made.
 
reached genetic limit and realized everyone in the pro's and even amateur's was doing it. so why be at a disadvatage?
 
was tired of paying a shit load of $$$ on crap, so I tried it. Will never buy another prohormone like andro in my life again.

My story goes like this:

My friend was taking a prohormone stack called stenandiol from Germany or something. I was interested because he was really talking it up. I thought it was really hardcore shit so I did a search on the internet and the closest thing I could come up with since I couldn't remember the name was sustanon! Well once I read the profile and about gaining 15-20 on a cycle I started to read a lot more, then about protection from sides and post cycle recovery. After joining some boards i realized that when done properly AS is not hazardous to your health as long as you dont abuse it. So I never set out to TAKE STEROIDS but once I found out what I was looking at was roids I was just like "oh well thats alright then i guess" and here I am. Cycle #2 now!
 
To Summarize Steroids are Supps that work!

Good point. I was spending about $350 per month on the following piece of shit supps:

- Mass Action (HMB/TMG bullshit from MetRX)

- PS - expensive and doesn't reduce cortisol enough to make a difference

- Andro Poppers - Dear God! Why or Why was I so stupid?

- ParaDeca from VPX - The retarded phony needle & a bottle -christ!

- Amino Fuel

- Tribex - good post cycle for libido, otherwise shit

- Methoxy 7

- etc

So a year ago I decided the following supps where way more cost effective:

- Tren

- Dbol

- Abombs

- Winny

- Halo

- Test

- Clomid

God, if only I had been spending $350 a month on these during the time I was on supps.. I would have several years supply stocked up..

The funny thing is the main difference between supps & steroids to me is with supps you may go: "I think this may be working.. I think I notice a little improvement" to "Hell Yeah, it's kicking in!" when on steroids.
 
The poll says most of us were skinny befoe juice

Is this true? Tell us about yourselves "skinny" guys. The juice and results would be cool
 
Wanted to max out my potential to see if I had what it took to compete at the Olympia level.
I didn't, so now I powerlift and have more fun doing it.
 
i fell in love with the sport at the age of 17 ,i didnt touch aas till the age of 22 which i regret wish i would of done aas at the age of 25,now im 27 and looking to compete by next year ,thats why i do steriods... :evil:

Please explain.. I am interested.
 
I had worked out for years in High School and then I started lifting in College. I would see guys just starting to lift getting stronger and bigger than me in 2 months. I really didn't understand how people were passing me in less than two months until someone told me about steroids. This was in the early 80's and I really didn't even know about steroids. I was dumb enough to think that if I just worked hard enough I could get as big as the guys in the magazines. Boy was I wrong.

My first cycle was 100 Dianabol tabs. I took them for 6 weeks and increased my bench by 75lbs. I was hooked.
 
Other- Bodybuilder?
 
I saw Ben Johnson run the 100m and was like "Wow! That fucker is enormous and fucking quick". At the time I was in a High School and sport was extremely competitive and everyone was talented in their field.....yeah, one of those schools.

When I saw ole Ben get busted for Winny in the 1988 Olypmpics I thought roids was the answer (and it still is 15 years later). So, in order to win and compete at a national level I started juicing back then.

Now I do it just so that I can love myself more everyday!

It's a free world bro and what's more is you're being judgemental. At least they're being honest. After all, the question is "What made you try steroids?". Why should it for reasons you approve of ???
 
My penis was too large so I figured I needed to make my legs bigger to make it appear smaller so as not to scare the girls.

Perp
 
5 year old thread? Wow.

I did it for athletics when I was WAAAY too young. Then it became bodybuilding when I got a little older :evil:
 
Good question man. A the time I was gettin over a girl and was in a "fuck it" kinda mood for a while. I had a guy who I could get through, only guy ever new at that time. I wanted to improve my appearance and take it to the next level. And I forget who said it somewhere in this post, but the more I learned about juice, the more I learned about exercise and nutrition and all that good stuff.

You make a good point! The reality of the situation IMO is that they have ulterior motives for Big Pharma. This is all a marketing strategy for the new anabolic hormone and peptide analogues that are being produced, and about to be produced by the big pharmaceutical companies. IGF-1 has been released in the US as a product called Increlex made by a company called Tercica. It is FDA approved!

Do you you really think the government are concerned about anyone's health. They have $$$ in their eyesight. They don't want you to use other people's drugs they want you to use their drugs. Did you know that Pfizer have a 7000% markup on Viagra!!! Yes, you read correctly.

Another interesting event is the 'bust' of Sylvester Stallone in Australia. Why on earth would Australian customs search a 'celebrity'. I'm twice the size of Mr. Ego and I have been through Aussie customs a few times with nothing more than a 'G'day mate. Enjoy your stay'. Then if that wasn't enough for the press, he gets bust AGAIN 3 days later with a 'pharmacy' in his hotel room. C'mon, how stupid do they think we are.....It is staged in order to put rHGH into the limelight. Aaah, if Sly is using GH then we all should use it, right? Negative publicity seems to be far more effective at marketing ANYTHING!

Peace bros.

US gov sure seems to be on a mission these days. not just with AAS, but with holding their people captive in their own country.

Life is so much easier above the border. ;)
 
I first tried gear because of a little peer pressure and bad self image. My training partner my first year of college was a competitive powerlifter. He had never tried gear before either, and when his coach told him to basically give it a try, I wanted to jump on the bandwagon too. His coach hooked my friend up with some test prop and some anadrol. I bought a 100 day cycle of anadrol and we started together. It was amazing to say the least. Everyone on campus would look at us while working out and just stare. I loved the attention. I guess it was that attention that I had never gotton before that i got hooked on. That and being 30 lbs bigger and stronger than 80 % of the gym. There is just no other feeling than being "on".

Fuck yeah! Well said. I love being ON.
 
Started out ultra skinny. Did three bulking cycles naturally - bulk up 20lbs, diet back down 10lbs, bulk up 20lbs diet back down 10lbs, bulk up 20lbs diet back down 10lbs. All of this because my grandmother saw a picture of me and thought I was sickly - god bless her. After putting on 30lbs naturally from overfeeding and dieting cycles, I liked the way I looked and people complimented my constantly. Helped my self esteem from always being that "skinny guy". Figured that AS would help me keep it on easier and refine what I had. Worked exactly like that while I was on. Funny though, I made my best gains and most permanent gains naturally. Now it is more of a biology class on my body, I take this compound - what happens, I take this other compound - now what happens. I like the experimentation and I actually excercise more and eat cleaner when I am on then when I am not. I like the feeling of getting stronger each workout. Not easy to do the further you get up in age.
 
i took steroids so that I would tear up the football field. Now i take steroids because it is the ultimate fealing. I use to be heavy in to recreational drugs such as weed, coke, pills and so on but If some 1 asked me what drug is your favorite and you liked the most, akwardly to say it would be steroids.

chances are a lot of former (and current) rec drug users now use steroids instead of rec drugs. one addiction...for another.
 
They helped me do what otherwise took years of hard work. I found that fascinating. In other words, they work!

I found the more you gain naturally, the easier it is to hold on to to gains from cycles. Guys who start too soon tend to need to be "on" otherwise they lose their gains quickly.
 
my bro was a pro bodybuilder, and when i went away to school to play ball. he sent me a lil pick me up to get me started. pretty much take this if you dont want to wait 2 years to get on the field......
 
getting older
dick not working like it used to.
diet sucked
strength waining

then i discovered knowledge, and the journey began..
 
started out young, 2 young by most opinions, from the very start of my training I wanted to comp, read flex and thought it could be done without gear, then an older friend told me ron, jay, lee every pro was on gear, was 17 yeares old and my dreames were shattered still didnt beleave it so went n don my own reaserch on it. was heart broken the whole time i trained i despised steroids then found out it was the only way to look the way i wanted. I w8ed till i was 18 done the usual silly c.u.n.t cycles of Dbol only Dbol deca then late last year tried test and then again bout 15 16 weeks or so ago only doing baby doses 500 then drop it down 2 250, prob do another 1 when iv had 6 or so weeks off. Im 20 in july and still havnt don a comp hope to do jrns before 21. so ne way strted in hopes of winning a comp 1 day. I no it was a simple question but therugo.....
