No offense but just because you took 200mg androstenedione capsules 3x per day in 1996 and they didn't give you 20lbs in eight weeks, most likely they did nothing, doesn't mean the latest generation of OTC steroids are crap. The vast majority of people get excellent results from the latest generation. Likewise, using "real" steroids carries more risk than many of you realize. Using the dosages common today one can easily get a statuatory bump to distribution and end up be sentenced to a MINIMUM of five years in prison. I've seen a statuatory bump at greater than 50ml. If you're running 75mg TA everyday for eight weeks and it's dosed at 75mg/ml you're already considered a dealer by statute before factoring in the 500mg/week of test you're running. Some people have good lives they would rather not risk screwing up by becoming a convicted felon.
