AAS at a young age (18)

[b_light]

Currently im on a winter bulk and am sitting at 184 (weighted my self monday). I am 6' tall and have been for 2 years now, pretty sure im not growing vertically anymore. I was already away of the growth plates sealing prematurely but im confident they already have or are close to it. I have a very good feeling that BBing will be a life time thing for me. Every single day of my life i look forward to how much more i can eat then i did yesterday and seeing if the scales will shoot up compared to the past day. I gave up drinking with my buddies, all rec drugs. I got to be around 8 or 9pm to ensure i get enough rest.

I know you dont know me on a personal level but i have never stuck to anything this long and had a drive this late in the game like i had just started the hobby or what ever it may be. It has changed my life and for the better i think. Now im started to get on a rant but its the truth.

I know im not gonna be the next olympia but i want to compete. Everyone that is competing at my age or a few years older has no chance unless they are on or have done a cycle, its just the way it is IMO.

a serious question that deserves a serious answer

how tall are you?
last time we had a short mr olyimia was right after arnold
if you havent reached your full height you never will after your first cycle
so short term goals will seem to hurt your long term goals.

how big are you now?
if you dont have good genetics and already pretty big you will never be a pro bodybuider i my opinion. those guys were big without juice i garuntee.

bodybuilding is my life.
at 18 dungeons and dragons was my life
at 20 martial arts was my life
at 23 playing pool for money was my life
at 30 my children were my life
at 42 still the children... hey i think i grew up at 30 guys!!!!!

are you sure that bodybuilding will be your life at 23 or 27??
do you really think that you will be able to compete at a high enough level to make it a career?
99.9 % chance you wont
think about that before you stick that first needle
and kudos to you for the good research youve done on usage but my advice is wait

Excellent post. Far too many young guys are clueless about what they want their day to day life to be like as an adult. Wanna be a pro BB? Plan on being broke and not having a life for at least 7-10 yrs-and even then you may still not have the genetic potential to compete at the state level, let alone professionally. Did you ever notice how the majority of top amateur BB's don't have jobs? How do you think they earn their $$$ for juice??? A lot of them are gay for pay-and have some rich gay guy paying all of their bills in return for sexual favors. Are you willing to cross that line to compete with the other guys that want a pro card? How can you compete against guys taking $60K worth of drugs per year that have nothing else to worry about besides training when you only make $24K a year busting your ass 40 hrs/wk at a ft job???

im not sayin dont compete and i think its great that it has had a positive impact on your life
keep doing it and skip the AAS for now and concentrate on what is really important at your age


TRIM!!!

i think you guys are taking it a little out of context. in no way do i want to compete on that large of a scale, if it happens eventually that would be great who wouldent want that? However, its not my focus. I just want to compete on a smaller level and see where it takes me. It's purely for fun and its something i enjoy more then anything else in the world.

In all honesty bro if your gonna compete and really go through with it then maybe its all up to the user as long as you make a informed decision. Look at the october issue of muscular development magazine it has 24yr old evan centopani and there is no doubt in my mind that he is juiced to the gills and has been for a long time. He is so enormous for a 24yr old its sick especially his stretch marks <-----from some extremely quick growth.

i m a bit smaller in that pic then i am now, im starting to gain more bodyfat along with the muscle now. Regardless i do think i am still pretty small but i just dont realisiticly see how i can compete against non-natural people at this age. Do you guys know of any natural compititions in new england area around my age group i could look into?
