Zyglamail You keep referring to me as scrawny. I'd love to see how you're built man. 9,000 posts on an internet discussion board. I bet you could use a little time in the gym. Or at least in the real world.
For starters, im 5'10 and was 180lbs when I graduated high school and about 10%bf and I WAS SCRAWNY!. In 2-3 years I went to 220lbs and about 13%bf and thats where I stayed while working a full time job, spending about 1.5 hours in the gym and practicing martial arts for 2-3 hours 5 days a week.
Now, im nearly 20 years older than you, im no longer looking to be big, simply strong and well rounded with decent endurance. Im holding steady at about 15% at 230lbs, I can currently row a 2k on an erg rower in under 7 minutes, not going to set any records but not bad either, especially for an old fart. Im not letting BF or weight be my guide but performance in strength and endurance. I train with those goals in mind and let my body adjust accordingly.
Ive spent plenty of time in the real world, enough to add serious mass and adjust my body comp in various ways for various goals. Ive trained clean and have used AAS (after I was in my 30 mind you) and have been as large as 265lbs and about 10%bf.
What I dont need is scrawny snot nosed kids like yourself preaching to me that you need AAS to gain a little strength and mass because you clearly dont. I gave you advice, take it or leave it I dont really care but you have made it abundantly clear your a waste of my time.
