NEW RULE Re Underage Members

[Chocolate_Thunder]

This is something that has been informally enforced by members and staff for awhile, but its time to make it official.

No one is to give steroid related advice to a member under the age of 21 (which is the approximate average age of epiphyseal fusion).

If a young kid wants to limit his final height, ruin an optimally functioning hpta and reduce his longterm potential for growth, we wont be complicit.

Please limit any discussions with under 21's to nutrition and training and non-steroidal supplements.

Yes we know the limitations, but digger, needto, myself and the other mods will be enforcing this "energetically", and I know alot of you feel strongly about this as well.

thanks for your help.

Also just thought ot this...
I have been seeeing some people asking about doing a cycle with only a few years under their belt. I think after 5 years of training consistently before jumping in. I waiting 9 years!

We've thought about it. If (and that is a BIG IF) they are willing to listen, we're happy to have them here to get advice about training and diet, and even to hear the horror stories about things that can go wrong with Da Joose. Where we draw the line is people saying "Oh, you can get away with it at 19" and "EVEN THOUGH YOU'RE AN IDIOT FOR EVEN THINKING ABOUT IT AT YOUR AGE, here's a cycle for you to try."

Saying you found some young monster and let him juice at 19 does not mean he needed it -- or that he would not be just as big without it. Not to mention healthier down the road.

ELITE FITNESS is not about looking great at 20 and dying at 30. It's about looking awesome at 30 and living to 120.

Very good thing. I'm glad to see this happen. As much as nobody wants to admit the media does play a huge role with alot of the younger members that come on here and assume hop on some steroids and bam, your huge. EF is a great place which promotes fitness, and like digger said looking good ALL your life and prolonging it. I think EF is about fitness and doing your body well, not drug abuse and abusing your body.

No one here NEEDS steroids. they just take them so they can get their physique to the next level.
