In 1990 I joined the Navy at a height of 5'10' and a body weight of 129lbs.
I came out of bootcamp at 143lbs. I later went into training at BUDS, and although I did not finish it, I came away at 147lbs, all muscle.
I then began to identify with myself as a lean and muscular guy, but I wanted size.
At 24 I started in the gym, and at 28 I did my first cycle. In two years I gained a pretty fair amount of muscle, topping out at about 195 ish. I was not ripped, but I was sort of lean. I had long blonde hair, and a dark tan.
A year later I lost an acting gig to a guy 6'1' and about 175, absolutely shredded.
the instant he took off his shirt, I knew I looked like a fag. I decided right then and there that I was going to get absolutely ripped to the bone, and dense, regardless of size.
I ate just chicken breast for eight weeks, with a fiber supplement, and went down to 155, ripped and weak. I hit a cycle of test, clen, and equipoise, bringing the eq up to 600-ish mg/week for about seven months. I only got up to about 180, and I was still kind of soft. I continued with only clen and my doses skyrocketed, but I got a pretty good look. Then I tried winstrol, and the rest is history. I lived on it, solid, for months. Unfortunately I was also using other drugs heavily. I got sick after about a year. BAD sick.
I did, however, in 1998 acheive a body fat of 4%, and at a weight of 161 or so I was benching 330 and squatting 315 full to the floor for reps. I was a solid piece of mahogany, right up until the hep got me.
I have cycled woth more respect now, and I prefer ox to anything else. Tren is awesome, but the results are too temporary for my liking. I am currently ripping out on a low dose of test and ox.
I weigh about 175 at around 6% with good vascularity right now. This summer I will dip to 5% and line things out, get some added density. I gain roughly two pounds of muscle a year, if that, but my density seems to improve a little even if my gains are small.
But hey, that's me.
