Killing that Sh*t. Some of my story, now lets hear yours!

So its all about killing that sh*t. In the gym, in the kitchen, in the bed room, no matter where you go or what you do you need to be killing that sh*t.

Don't do what the rest of the lazy world is doing. Kill things and kill them often. Get active in/for what you believe in and only because you believe in it and feel strongly about it. Make a trail for others to follow and make it because you know its the better way.


Almost 4 years ago WE started Needtobuildmuscle here on elitefitness.com. Even before the forming of the company many of us started the foundation for it here on this site. We set out to change the minds of many and inspire even more to do the same. What set us aside from the rest? what made our way better? YOU!! The members that is what makes us better. We set out to do everything the best we could for the members of this site. Set the best rules, the best atmosphere for learning and sharing. The best base of knowledge. The best measures of safety both for physical and financials for all the members.

How did we do all of this? why has it caught on and spread so much? Well rather than try and be above we walk among and we help raise others up to where we are. I know in my heart that Not only my self but many others (to many to mention) have changed the oldest and largest steroid forum in the world in a positive way forever.

Now if anyone knew me 5-6 years ago you would have laughed at the thought of me changing anything on this site let alone the entire site and in a positive light. I started out here ( and most of my life) as a drunken fool who can't spell for crap. When I started I didn't really even know what a steroid was and I thought I knew how to use them but I was so stupid than. Every mod on elite hated me my first year or two here and all of them tried banning me at least once. I was an angry, bitter, selfish, mean, addict with a go no where job and go no where life.


One drunken angry night a mod banned me for who knows what. So being the drunken prick I was I proceeded to call the elitefitness help desk number over and over and over again till some one picked up.. Finely A man picked up the phone. " this is big rick rock at elitefitness.com how can I help you Nathan" he says to me... well you can start by unbanning my account a slurred...

Rick Spoke to me as if I mattered but at the same time let me know I was being foolish. He didn't have to but over the next few months He called me and I called him and he started to the way I thought about things. About this site, about what I was doing here, about my life and more. Than one day he said listen Im going to give you an opportunity here. I chance to change your life and the lives of countless others. But you have to pull your head out of our ass, stop drinking , and completely change everything. Its not going to be easy and you can expect all your past mistakes to just vanish overnight. But if you want it, if you really want anything bad enough you can get it.


at the time I hardly knew rick nor did he know me. But he was a man of his word than as he is now. I took him up on his offer and over the next 2 years my life did change and the lives of countless others have changed too.

Give as many people as you can a hand and in turn they will do the same for you. Teach every person you help to than turn and help another and teach them to also teach that person to do the same. Karma and the ripple effect. Each person has a circle of influence. Each person has a number of people they will come into contact with often and even just a few times to once. But we have the ability to have an effect on every single person we come into contact with no matter what manner in which we meet. And if you are conscious of this and make it a point to have an effect. You can change more than you could ever dream.

What does any of this have to do with steroids, supplements, weight lifting? Everyone of us have come here to this forum to improve our quality of life. Improve our health, our minds, our looks, our lives! So than we can start there but that does not mean it has to end there. We interact with each other and thousands of others here on this site and others daily. The internet has opened up the entire world to everyone of us.


I made a choice a long time ago to change my life by changing the lives of others. Putting others needs at the very least a lot higher on my priority list. This presented a challenge to me, one that would go on forever and continually grow larger as time went on. See there is no shortage of people thus the job is never done and when you start helping others the joy, rewords, everything that comes out of it keeps you going on and on. Each day I wake up knowing today some one will thank me for what I have done for them.

But even more important is that I/we helped some one and they in turn helped another and person by person we are changing not just elitefitness. or the sites we belong to but the entire world.

There is far to many jerks today. Far to many people who care only about them selves. Most forums yo go to some one will bash you simple for asking a question. Yet here on elite, or Needtobuildmuscle.net forums its totally different. WE DID THAT>>>YOU DID!!! We made that difference and we most keep making that difference


In our industry most companies care only for the bottom dollar figures. Profit margins , sell sell sell and care about nothing more than this. It is our job to change this and it starts here on the fitness sites but it does not end there. I would ask that everyone talk to everyone they know. Make a impact and help change things. Change the way we treat each other and the way we are treated by others....Take the time to help some one, give them some advice that you know is good sound advice. And don't ever get tired of giving that same advice out to others over and over again. Every single time you do you make a difference in more than just the person you gave it to.

One man changed my life and set me on a completely different path. One man helped change everything about me and look at the outcome that has had!! Look at all that it has done! Now anyone of us can have that kind of a impact on the people around us. Rick had no Idea who I was when I first called him, not do I know some people who call me when they do. But I treat them like they are a life long friend and I try to make a difference.

Kill that shit? How does this come into the picture? You must always Kill it , everything you do do it as best you can. Inspire others to do the same. Inspire others to Kill that sh*t too and Kill it often. It is through example we can also impact others. When we kill it we inspire others to kill it too. Plus killing sh*t is just awesome...

Anything worth doing is worth killing it. If you're not killing it whats the point? Now Lets all get out there and kill that sh*t and keep making a difference to everyone around us. Some one helped change my life. I am positive you can do the same for someone else too. :evil::evil:
 
Nice post man!
Coming over from forums where ppl don't get this. Thanks for making this one special.
 
Great read.

I must say about 1 year ago I came here by accident cause I saw the app in the app store. I havent had much help with people in the gym, my friends half ass know stuff, and other forums most people are rude or unhelpful cause they dont know either. But here I got the help I needed. People were helpful, patient, gave me honest opinions and advice. Since then Ive made some great gains, learned a great deal, and still obsorbing the knowledge people have to offer. Not to mentioned being introduced to great products by Needto and others.

Now I Kill it every chance I get.

That is what I am talking about. This is the kind of things I like to hear people talking about. I live off Inspiring stories and thank you's from the people I have helped.. Even if its some one else here at elite or in your life that helped you I like to hear about it. so much better than the bull shit we see on tv and or all around us
 
I can't remember how I ran across this site, but it was when I first started to get into lifting. I was 140 lbs., didn't know a thing about lifting or supplements, and had just bought a couple supps from GNC (worst mistake ever!!) I came on here and immediately started reading. Everything I know and I have gained is due to this site and it's great sponsors! I'm 170 lbs now with 7% bf all built with NTBM supps and proud of it. I'm just glad I found this site before I was sucked into the GNC/muscle&fitness douchebag group. Thank you guys! Thanks needto!
 
Oh and one other thing. I'm in high school and I used to just be another pus*y and now all kids lookin to beef up come to me for advice. It's a great feeling! I just give them the link to elite fitness and NTBM.
 
bro, ive been a member for 5 years now, and i have been surfing this site for a consistent 5 years now, i didnt start posting more until recently after i felt that i could give advice and be able to site what i was saying.... and until i had personally used some of the harsher compound to speak from experience... I think the knowledge on our forum is priceless and i personally am thankful for finding out about this forum so i can better my lfie and those around me.... Thanks guys...

That is bad ass bro.. I also repsect that fact that you have done all this with hard work and supplements. You have been smart enough to wait on using steroids. Nothing wrong with using them in fact we all know I love them and everyone here does too. But we can all agree that the right thing to do is wait .. The best thing you can do is learn proper diet, training and than supplementation before moving on.

I would ask people to learn not just about a supplement but try to learn about what is in each supplement, study each and every single ingredient Till you know them all like the back of your hand. Learning this is much more valuable..

damn I been here 9 years now almost? Jesus how time flies when you're having fun lololoolol.... Best 9 years of my life here on this site with you and everyone else here.
 
good ole google brought me here for years before i ever signed up. i remember being 16-18 doing curls and bench every day thinking i was the bomb. if i could go back in time i would kick my own ass! i am now capable of doing an entire routine lol, despite being on the mend with a slipt disc and severely torn lower lumbar muscle and a mangled shoulder for the last 6 months and my 2nd go round with these injuries in the last 2 years im still better looking and lower bf than most active ppl and europeans. defo lost size and muscle tho..

big thanks to Needto, who has personally helped me with many pms on various subjects. who has even put every way to get ahold of him on these boards from pm, email, to personal phone number. and also thanks to all the mods that have taught and helped me, and to all the various knowledgeable members.
 
So its all about killing that sh*t. In the gym, in the kitchen, in the bed room, no matter where you go or what you do you need to be killing that sh*t.

Kill things and kill them often.

lmfao!! its a good thing you are not a musician. you would be in some serious trouble. solid advice tho bro
 
Wow…just when I thought I couldn’t respect you more Nate, that was truly an inspiring story and has moved me in a big way. Thank you for your share, again you are truly the Iron Angel…and you definitely had angels watching over you too bro. I did not know that about Big Rick Rock, another guy whom I respect as well from these forums, as well as being part of my NTMB team…I am honored to be a part of the EF community as well as NTBM family, and to be in the presence of such great folks here on this forum...many names to mention!

This is kind of long, like Nates, but it is my story in a nutshell...and I have never posted this story anywhere else...Nate you inspired me to do this, you asked for it bro!

I will try to condense my share as best as possible, but I too was a skinny 23 year old kid who liked to party a bit too much. In fact I was basically addicted to drugs, but not so much alcohol. I was working for the company I still am today (22 years now) and had a work related accident while on a job. I ended up with a 10% compression fracture in my spine, went through a ton of physical therapy, and at one point I thought to myself that my body was not healthy, I was killing myself, and worst of all almost lost my job. I made a pact with my co-worker/brother that we would quit and start getting each other better and healthy.

I started working out with weight after I was cleared by the doctors from my injury since I thought “man, I am too young to have a back injury for the rest of my life!” I met a guy who was just yoked through another friend of mine and he invited me to work out with him at the local Powerhouse gym. At that time I was just working out in my garage with very few weights that I had. The first workout with him I watched him throw up 140 lb dumbbells for bench presses and I was in awe! I told myself “that will be me one day”. Moving forward I trained with him for a good two years until we went our separate ways (we still keep in contact, although I am bigger than him now lol) and like we all have, I had went through several training partners, always bigger guys than me, to continue my growth and passion in what I have as my new addiction…bodybuilding! I trained natural for a solid 10 years, just trial and error on supplements, trying the next newest marketed supplement in the bodybuilding magazines, or what the guys at the gym would tell me to take…without even knowing what it was I would ingest it! I didn’t care, I just wanted to get big and muscular…but got some fat as well lol. In 10 years I went from 165 lbs of drugged out weakling, to a 265 lb muscular/fat guy but clean and sober, and following a better path than I was 10 years prior.

I was working with a new employee at my work one day and he asked “have you ever juiced?” I was like “what?” Steroids he said, I said nope…all natural here! Well, he said that he had some steroids left over from his hay days and was willing to let me have them…so of course I said ok! He told me how to take them, how much and etc. So with the guidance of some other guys at the gym I had started injecting steroids without even knowing a damn thing about what I was really doing. The stupid things we do. So I ran a so called cycle of Deca and Test and guess what…no PCT. So onto the next cycle, same…no PCT. The one thing that all guys that I thought were knowledgeable left out of this whole equation was Post Cycle Therapy! Anyway, in 2005 I decided to take it to the next level and compete in my first bodybuilding show. I was already on a cycle and hooked up with a friend of mine who is a trainer and had helped many other at the gym compete back in the 90’s. So I did and long story short placed 2nd in the Heavyweight Novice class…I was on cloud 9! The competitive bug had bit me, and my physique was the best it ever was! I was addicted! So in 2007 I competed again in two back to back shows and placed 1st and 2nd (two different divisions) in one, and 2nd (the same show I did in 2005) in the other. After that, I stopped doing cycles as I had got married in 2004, and had a baby girl in 2006. I needed to be responsible and give up my life for my little girl. Although, a guy who owned a local supplement store had turned me onto prohormones, Tren Extreme to be exact, said I would get steroid like results, but it is legal! WOW, cool…so I bought a couple of bottles and he gave me one bottle of an estrogen blocking supplement and outlined the cycle for me and I went on my merry way! About a few weeks into the cycle, I felt burning sensation in my nipples…I didn’t think much of it…you all know what happened next…Gyno. I felt little lumps, and started researching it, went and seen plastic surgeons and found out how expensive the surgery was, etc.

I am going to jump ahead again a bit and just say that this condition had put me in a big time depression, having this really kills your image of yourself…and to this day I am still living with it. So one day I was on the computer and search engined “gyno removal without surgery” and found Gynexin…what a crock that crap was! Didn’t do shit, and wasted my money again! So the depression continued and I kept looking online for a way to get rid of this. I had stumbled across Elite Fitness by accident and was overwhelmed by the PCT and gyno section, so much solid information that I could have used years prior if I knew where to look. It was like striking gold finding all of this information. I stumbled on a thread by the Iron Angel (Nate) about how to remove gyno without surgery. After reading it and the other links connected to it I sent him a PM. It took about a week before he got back to me, and he basically told me what I needed to buy, and what I needed to do if he was going to help me…so I did! Now here is this guy who doesn’t know me from a hole in the ground, nor do I know him for that matter, but I was/am so finished with having this condition that I was willing to do ANYTHING!!! Thank you Nate! We will say I still have a bit of the condition left, but will be going through the program again soon to get rid of this shit for good…and best of all…I have been educated extensively and continue to be on proper Post Cycle Therapy! I am an advocate for this, I am now a spokesperson (after putting myself out here like this…I’m now really exposed LOL!!!), and I am a member (like hair club for men lol!). Nate also educated me a bit on the garbage supplements I was currently taking and turned me onto Need to Build Muscle! After all this guy had done for me, I had to write something positive thanking him and his wife Shanna for their gift to me…and it truly is a gift!

Nate called me one morning on my way to work after I had posted my thread about “Where has Need to Build Muscle been all my life!”, and asked if I would be willing to be a rep for his company…and here we are today! God and things happen for a reason, and just like another brother of mine on this forum, Dylan, said to me the other day in an e-mail “I asked God to let me be able to spread my passion to people all over” and he too is a representative for NTBM…as this is truly my passion! I want to continue working with Nate and the NTBM family helping others as Nate has helped me…and this is my calling. I may not know a lot, but I always am educating myself, and learning everyday, and through 18 years of training I do know a little bit from personal experiences. I am blessed to be a part of this community, a part of NTBM family, and will continue to spread the word of NTBM and help others obtain their goals, here and where I live in my community.

Last thing…Muscle Addiction is my screen name for a very special reason…I turned my life around from drugs and alcohol, and like Nate a downward spiral and took that addiction and focused it into something positive…my need to build muscle and a healthy lifestyle…as that is what this is to all of us…a lifestyle!! I hope to make friends and be able to continue my education here for many, many years to come!

Sorry for the long read, but this thread needs to stay alive!!! Nate, your post motivated me to type this up and put it out there and hopefully others will do the same…as we are all family in my book here! Most will pass judgement, but I really don't care what others think of me...like me or not, I am a simple man whom I love and understand, and my family loves me and that is all that matters to me.

Salute to the Iron Angel, Need to Build Muscle, and the Elite Fitness family here!

This is exactly what I have been doing. Weird that you would say that but that's what I tell people. I tell em,"don't just look at the grams of protein and carbs, that's what newbs do. Look at every individual ingredient and do your research before you put anything in your body" And yes I've done it all natty, no need for steroids right now, but I love learning about them for the future.
 
Damn,nice stories and very inspirational. Id have to thank dylan for pointing me to this site. And i am sure glad he did. Ive been a member in numerous other forums but this one by far takes the cake. Not only is everyone helpful and will take the time to answer your questions and help you out, but the knowledge here is outstanding and feels good to know that there is a forum out there with all of this. I just want to say thanks for having this site and i plan on staying for quite some time, peace.

muscleaddiction my man that is awesome bro. Im glad you got clean like me and trust me you will find that more than a few of us guys here have had past problems too.
 
Needto. I almost got a tear in my eye reading your post. Im joined EF sometime around July 2011. I stumbled across it when I finally came to a point in my life I was tired of feeling "less" than the other guy. I had a terrible breakup with a long term gf who I was thinking of marrying on day. She moved on quite easily. I ate pizza EVERYDAY, chinese takeout, drank as I willed, never worked out. People noticed my life going down a drain. I get teary when I think back to those days.

I finally met a beautiful girl. Honestly shes stunning, and her heart pure gold. But she had a past where she had her fair share of fun if u know what I mean. But she fell for me head over heels for who I was (a fat slob at the time)...

I have accepted her for her past, because she treats me so well and never judged me. I always felt insecure that she had dated so many models and lets face it no doubt she has had amazing sex in her past. This made me feel like shit.

But she gave me the motivation to KILL THAT SHIT! I changed my life for her and I couldnt have done it without u needto and the great guys on here. Shortly after joining I became a platinumm member and most days I drop by. Im a lawyer and life gets hard....somedays i have such long hours but no matter what I think of my girl and u guys and it gives me the strength to push that one extra rep. I want to be the best thing for my girl....but more importantly I owe it to me for a better life, a healthier lifestyle, to live as long as I can and be proud of who I am.

From joining in July, i lurked and gathered all my info on how and what to do. It required dedication from learning the most basic elementary stuff such as diet, macros, supplements, training....it was all too overwhelming. But rest assured everytime I asked questions people on her would JUMP to help me. Why? Why are people so helpful on this site and come to a brother's aid? Because we are a BAND OF BROTHERS!!! AND WE KILL THAT SHIT TOGETHER. we arent jealous, we arent selfish, we love each other. We help each other.

In august I started my journey. I lost over 35 pounds. I gained great mass. I look better, more confident and the god honest truth and main reason for all this? It has made me a happier place.

I know we dont all know each other, and if we passed each other on the street we wouldnt know each other....but all i know is after a long day, my workout when im totally exhausted, i can always turn my computer on from across the world and count on my bros.

I love u EF and I love all u guys here. This place has changed my life.....


THANK YOU EVERYONE

Nice thread!

I came here as an aspiring powerlifting meathead looking for size and strength. I built myself up to a solid 240 at 5'10" with respectable strength with the supp, training, diet, and aas advice I got here. This place has changed my life in many ways and I owe a lot to the guys here.

Now i'm on the complete other end of the spectrum. I'm a sport class cross country bike racer who's trying to LOSE mass. I'm ripped at 190 and I really need to get down to 175-180 before our fall season starts in order to compete and move up in the ranks. We spend all this time trying to cultivate mass and now I'm struggling to lose it haha
 
5 yrs ago I found my second home. People who had no idea who I was were offering me life changing advice. Gym, juice, nutriton, life in general. I can't even count how many times elite, needto and co. have helped me out.

Its funny but when I see morons on here every once in a while bashing the site or just being belligerent , I sometimes take it personally bc I feel this is my site, my family, my house..... its my house!!! Lol

Guess just right now my motivation is through the roof, had 2 moles cut out of my stomach 2 days ago as a precautionary (I've had 1 cut out 2 years back that was turning bad so always careful now) and have 7 stitches in my stomach, I think a year or 2 ago I would have seen it as an excuse to have some time off but nope, still heading in all week, modified workouts so my stitches don't make me ooze all over the gym floor but still getting my arse down there and shifting some weight!

Killing moles and killing the gym!
