Steroids at a young age?

[Lee]

No I'm not even considering juicing, I just like to learn. I was wondering if taking steroids around the ages of 15 to 18 would have more of a muscle-building effect then someone over the age of 20. I was thinking about it, and teenagers bodies do repair and grow faster then that of older folks, so I thought it made sense that steroids would make teens grow faster then adults.

It would make more sense for a teen to take advantage of his own high test levels, as opposed to buying it. Teens grow faster than adults as it is.

im no juice expert but i dont think its the greatest idea. steriods help to make you grow at the same rate as a teenager. if everyone kept growing at the same pace you do from 14 to 20, they would probably never have to take the stuff. so yes you will get a big boost from it, but why, your body at that age is it's own natural steriod. thats my opinion, so yes you would grow more taking it as a teen, however the complications would hardly be worth any of it.

hmm, that does make sense. Once again, I wasn't planning on using steroids, I was just curious.

Hmm...no, not necessarily.

When you're juicing for almost any amount of time, your natural test levels decline sharply. That's why guys who don't do clomid after cycles wind up losing everything they put on (and oftentimes even more...they trade a couple of months of being big for several months of being smaller and softer than they were before the cycle).

If a young teen was to juice, his own test production can't always simply be added to the "boost" he's getting with steroids--say, like 1+1. His own production will slow to .5, .25, and so on, until eventually he's left with something like 0+1 near the end of a cycle (depending on its length). The steroids become his only real source of test.

And as I said, when he comes off, he'd better have plenty of clomid; until his own test is back in full swing, he'll be going from one whole point of hormones to much less. If he does everything right he'll come out a little bit ahead, but I doubt most kids would do everything as they should.

In the end, it'd be better for the kid to just take advantage of his crazy natural test. I imagine if you got a kid on a number of short, intelligently-planned cycles, he could do real well, but it ain't worth it. Besides, it's far more fun to wait until you're really about to tap out naturally then introduce the chemical assistance

One thing that can happen when juice is taken too early is they can stunt their growth.

I am 18 and i juiced simply to get hard for a show (winny for 6 weeks). I did it right and kept all my gains/strength. You can flame me or put me down for using, but we all take risks especially when competing. My test levels were maybe a little low for a week afterword but now there high, I don't have bloodwork proof of it, but I can tell by my sex drive, appetite, ect. I would wait to juice though tell you have reached your maximum potential.

You don't want to start AAS until your early 20's. I would never advocate the use of steroids to teenagers under any circumstances.
