at 18 i wanted to do Deca-Durabolin - nandrolone decanoate - -Durabolin - nandrolone decanoate - so bad, everyone was doing it and i was a mere
5 10 125 no joke. my parents are 5 10 and 5 2 so i figured i was done growing and thought about hopping on. the guy who was gonna hook me luckily was a good person and had me go to my doc and see if my growth plates had shut, which is done by measuring a bone in your hand. the doc said i was not done growing by any means. at 20 i was 6 foot and still 135 tops. working out like crazy trying to eat and it was still hell. at this point steroids were out of my head and i no longer knew anyone to get them but i think i probably would have done them. thank god i didn't. 22 comes around and bamn i shoot up to 6 3 or a bit under(whatever I am) and the weight just starts coming on like crazy. i got up to 170 eating like crazy and jumped the gun a bit early on my cycles when i plateaued. had i waited till i got near 190, which i think is my genetic limit i'd probaby be a bigger guy now. i have a 28 inch waist and tiny frame with chicken legs, so my torso looks great, it sounds stat wise like i'd be able to carry 225 but no way. i have a roid friendly doc and he doesn't think i can put much more weight on as my legs just don't grow. 195-203 is the most i can weight but keep in mind ive never gone over 9%bf. so i love the look, and that wasn't the point anyway, just giving you a glimpse of my journey. learning how to eat from dieselgunz, outlaw, gautho, and dbbt on this site put on a lot of my mass and i couldn't be happier. so listen to these bros.
but whats my point? YOU MIGHT GROW MORE AT THE AGE OF 22-23 IVE SEEN IT HAPPEN FIRST HAND. i like muscle but i'd hate to be under 6 foot which i would have been had i not waited. my parents are not 6 foot and no one in my past has been but my sister is 5 11 and i'm this tall. so make sure you are done growing. the two years i spent being a lanky twig was well worth it for me as my height got me things in life i would not have been able to do.
since this is a thread about learning i thought i'd put that out there, but since you are not in your 20's shit man do what you got to do, you are not growing any more. but for those of you learning from this thread that are in your low 20's or teens think about what i just said.
