possible to ever go back to natural?

[calveless wonder]

just a thought....Is it ever possible to go back to natural once you've gone to the darkside?
gonna use myself as an example

i for one started AAS use EXTREMELY prematurely. I realize looking back now, but i was young (still am) and stupid. i learned alot from doing my first cycle and my diet/training have been near flawless ever since. I' managed to get VERY VERY lucky in terms of aesthetics. There's alot of information in regards to training and diet that i didnt know at the time yet somehow everything grew in proportion. Now, i know if i came off for awhile i could def still make natural gains but is it even worth it at this point?

IF you knew you could make some natural gains would you and could you, come off AAS till you platued completely? that is the question

A question i've been wondering about since 1992.

If you are only looking to maintain what you have got and maybe gain very very slowly then it is what you should do.

I just ended my cycle early today because I'm getting ridiculous hairloss. I know that I can grow without AAS, and I definitely started using gear prematurely. I never really have a problem with training naturally between cycles, so I don't think it will phase me too badly.

I'm going to do one further experiment, with IGF-1, and if that goes well I won't quite go back to being natural. If it's a disappointment I'm just going to go back to busting my ass naturally and maybe I'll give AAS a shot again. With all my other obligations I don't think I'm getting the most out of steroids anyway.

I started using the gear in college while I was 21. I was about 210lb by the time I was 23. I have not used any gear for the past 7 year till this summer. I am currently 180lb, and I cannot lift as much as I pushed in my early days. I’d say I am back on the gear, and I will continue for a while. The only problem is that it is more difficult to find gear than it was while I was in college.

Priorities change in life, and sometimes you may have to change out of necessity (children, financial obligations, etc...) Just because you can not use gear again does not mean that one can not bust ass in the gym and continue to flourish from it...If you truly love the rewards you will stick with it regardless (I know I will...)

IF you are not over your "genetic limit" you can still make gains natually.

it's very hard to conclude that one has truly plateaued naturally so at least i would advise ppl to figure out exactly what their priorities would be. i don't think u r hooked for life. i had originally planned a long string of short cycles soon. now i have decided to go natty for at least 6mths before i do maybe even longer. i think for anyone who is not competing, it is best to use AAS as an aid and not a life support machine.

 

[wannabebig1]

of course u can , i have not taken AS in about 14 months and the last 2 months i have gained about 15 pounds and went up 30 lbs in my bench... with out anything...except protein..

Gotta respond to this thread. Ive been off now approaching 2 years. Went thru the loss and partial regain loop and now am very comfortable with how i feel and look. I can honestly look in the mirror and say i dont look that far of from still being on gear. It took a long while but i had to relearn how to train naturally as well as naturally after haveing gotten as big as i am now from training while being on. People still think im on. If you want to look and feel good, just do whatever possible to shed water retension. Carb load and or with creatine if you want to look big. These things will help keep you positive. Even as i say this im contemplating my first cycle in 2 years, but im really in no hurry.

I think you can go natural again if you just refrain from reading the Message Boards. That would be the biggest thing that would keep people interested in my oppinion by reading other people's experiences, etc.

 

[magman1]

haha...that is a good point...if it werent for these damn message boards...

 

[AtLarge]
