I'm just curious to know how everyone else goes about getting they're supplements and also how it works into their everyday life. Do ya just work full time and hit the gym, then struggle week to week to get the funds for the supplements? Escort? Massage therapist? Personally, Mine comes from working week to week and struggling to get the money as well as pay the bills. Which can get pretty clustered at times. I really wanna get into the BB process BETTER (Don't get me wrong though, I'm doing really good as it stands, but it's my job that's holding me back from my full potential I believe) but find it extremely difficult at times. I guess I wanna know how everyone else deals with it, so I know if I'm alone or not, or to get some ideas ------------------ IP: Logged |

I must admit I am worthless compared to most of these people in here busting their asses. I am 18 just out of high school, and all i do is sit around and be lazy except for around 6:00 when i go to work out. It is easy for me to come across money to buy the shit i need. The hard part is finding the shit i need. I have done half-ass cycles like 2 10cc bottles of T200, and now i have 200 pink dbols. I do feel sorry for you man. My friend busts his ass at a restuaruant waiting tables, and then has to go work out with me. I need to find a job so i can feel yalls pain. IP: Logged |

I work about 35 hours a week with a solid salary, it seems like they basically pay me to be on this board and others. I dont do jack shit except f**k around on the Net the whole day. I also cultivate and gamble really well. The main supps I use is basically just whey protein so alot of my money is just saved. IP: Logged |

Havoc basically summed up my work week. During football season, gambling pretty much pays for my supplements. One of my friends is a distributorso I get supplements for very cheap. Rock Man, you can save a lot of money by buying supplements in bulk. IP: Logged |

Thick Dog, I'm talking AS sups as well as regular. Buying in bulk is the best way in that case also? ------------------ IP: Logged |

I work from 48-60 hours a week at a steel mill. Up at 5:30am for 45 minutes of cardio. Shower, eat and head for work. Home at 4:15pm, shower, hit the gym between 5 and 5:30, work out, home around 6:30 or 7:00. Shower, eat, watch TV and sometimes more cardio before bed. If I do more cardio I'll shower again real quick and go to bed between 10:30 and 11:00. This is the routine for usually 5 days a week, I'll take 2 days off the gym a week, but still do the cardio. Friday evening I go out to dinner and go shopping, and Saturday evening I go out and do SOMETHING (or Id go crazy)!!! This is basically it. Its rough, but it gives me the money I need to support my "habits"... IP: Logged |

I make a pretty decent living but I am starting to feel my spending effects. I spend about $350 monthly at GNC (gold card days) and much more on gear. I am committed to this now so other savings/purchases have to wait. Prioritize your life. Living a healthy lifestyle affords you savings in other areas such as "beer money", going out to eat, popcorn/soda money, etc... You get the picture. IP: Logged |

I think we all have the same problem. I work between 40-50hrs a week at a parts warehouse. So between bills, and GNC my money is kindda tight. Its gonna suck when I start back to college. (I quit to support my BB habit) I'm gonna be working alot less hours and have less time to workout. But you'll always find time and money for whatever you want to do, its as simple as that.

Hey Rock_Man good to see you're still around. I'm in college but it's summer so I'm working now. I start lifeguarding this week and I can leave the job I have now which is doing shitty grunge work in a warehouse. During school I sell E. Believe it or not, it is a $$$ maker. It's risky, but hell so is juicing. It pays for my gear and I rarely have to dip into my paychecks over the summer to get some more. ------------------ IP: Logged |

I hear ya Pump on. Outside feels like a sauna and I'm in it 3 days out of the week. Who the hell can eat when your brains are baking? Well, this is what i did: I got a blender and started mixing fruit, frozen yogurt and protein powder. Pour in plastic containers and refridgerate. Take these to work and you will get your necessities and its a lot more easy to face that say meat and potatoes. IP: Logged |

I work from 35 to 80 hours per week at an I-Bank, have no qualms about the cost of gear but can't find the time to work out enough to get and keep any gains. Perhaps I should re-prioritize my life but I like/need money more than I like/need muscles... IP: Logged |

Not to make anyone jealous, but all I do is go to night school 4 days a week. I am in the military and they gave me 18 months to finish a degree. Still getting paid and everything. So I do homework, eat like a friggin pig, and work out. It's a rough life you know. I am on my first cycle since 1993 and I feel great. Later... ------------------ IP: Logged |
