Reality Check

A little rant

I have been on this board for along time as well as some others and I have seen and heard some weird shit. However, what really blows my mind is how easy it now is for kids to get easy access to gear. When I was 16 (10 years ago) the only place I knew where to get was that BIG dude at the gym. Now we have kids comming online barely learning about these drugs and making an order. These are the kids that are 150lbs asking on how to use GH or if EQ is better then Winni to go with their Test/ Deca stack. what happened to the good old days when we paid more attention to eating like a cow and training heavy? I think kids now are lazy. They think a little pill or shot will make them look like he-man. Sorry to break it to ya, but it takes alot of hard work at the gym. The drugs will give you the tools to work with but you still need to put some quality time in the gym!
Pick up an old magazine of the pros of yesteryear before drugs were running rampid... The phyques were built with hard work and good eating.

wish i could remember those "old days" too. I didnt use AAS til i was 22, However I used to be the big "guest" on this board for a while before i decided to join this past summer. As I have been surfing this board since 00'

I basically feel like i grew up with you Vets. Just sitting back and learning. Watchin posts and people and companies come and go.

It really pisses me off that kids who are 15 think that a Dbol only cycle will yeild 1000lb gains

I have had to work hard at my body to get where I am today, and thats no where close to where I want to be.

I like to help out as much as I can. but using something as simple as a search button can answer questions so easily.

I just wish the mentality would return back to the days where people concentrated on their body and nor what might help them make their body bigger/faster.......these kids using AAS without any guidence are only looking for trouble in the long run, especially those running close to 2 grams of grear for a first cycle...

MohawkMuscle....you can add my comments to your rants, i feel ya bro, karma4u

I agree, I trained for 10 years (maybe a little long) before hitting up gear, so I have no respect for people that train for a few months then hit the juice cuz they dont look like arnold yet... But in the end the law of diminishing returns will get them as they have to do a ton of cycles to get to where the rest of us got naturally. I know a bunch of guys that did a bunch of cycles, but were still smaller than me before I started AS, and i am a hardgainer.

Unfortunatly the net is a double edged sword. I can just about guarantee the big dude at the gym 10 years ago would sell to the 16 year old just as he would anyone else. The downside is the big dude at the gym likely knew a lot less than most people here do and hence not only could the kid still get GH but he wouldnt have any help whatsoever in its use.

Personally, all we can do is try and help and steer people down the path of education. As the old saying goes, you can lead a horse to water but you cant make it drink". I myself am tired of lawyers and politicians and even the average amercial looking for someone to blame for their messups in life. Some ol lady spills coffee in her lap sues and wins. Some kid OD's while using DNP and we all get a bad rap while his parents and the FDA go on a witch hunt. Does it suck? sure as hell does but what are the alternative? We can give up our freedoms in exchange for good ole uncle sam to be our guardian angle which of course we all know would be hell on earth....heck its allready hell on earth.

Its simply the law of averages and the natur of the beast rolled into one. For every one of us who wants to help others and promote safe use there are those that simply want a magic pill. There is no black or white and we just have to be happy on middle ground, we know prohibition doesnt work because other, often worse things pop up in its place. On the other extreme we know no regulation at all will work either because then what we do would be totally misused and even more would get hurt. We just have to tow the line and do what we can to help educate and promote safe yse.
