Teenage Steroid Use

[Retabolil2]

Ladies and Gentlemen, I have been troubled by the growing interest of young men at the high school level concerning AS use. In my profession of personal training I have developed a number relationships with young athletes. Numerous times conversations have revolved around this issue of AS use by 17-20 year old males. I have made it understood that I do not approve of this age group using for a number of reasons. Never the less I fear some of the young athletes are going to make these choices because the pressure they feel to succeed.

I want this thread to represent the pros and cons of AS use by young athletes. If they are going to take the chance of AS use, lets give them the best advice we can.

Please post only factual information backed by unbiased research or personal experiences. Thanks for any help you can give these young athletes.

I wouldn`t recommend using steroids at this age but I`ve seen many genetically gifted guys who became world or europe champions in powerlifting and bodybuilding at this age. And of course they were juicing alot. So if you think its worth it and you really want to become a professional athlete who compete then you have no choice.

I have to say I am very sick of hearing this genetic potential BS. Come on bros. I truely think most that preach waiting untill you hit your genetic potential are jealous of the inexperienced gaining the same as it took most years to gain natty in a couple cycles. I am def not for Teens using AAS but lets not use the damn genetic potential bs. Yes being disciplined is of extreme importance. Having a massive amount of knowledge surely doesn't hurt. All who think AAS is a magic hit is sorely mistaken teen or no teen and will not retain what they have gained. I think the most accurate warning to all the teens is your natural hormone levels that are still pretty new even at the age of 18. Why risk shuting down and starting up over and over. Its dangerous IMO.. Your levels should be high enough that you should grow if you have the discipline and knowledge of training and nutrition and not have to risk any side affects. Cherish your balls lol you only have two of them. I know the odds of permanent damage might be slight but is it worth the risk? Then there is the estrogen to worry about. Why do women usually shorter than men??? Estrogen will stunt your growth. Too the one who said whats wrong with being 5'6 damn man I guess nothing is wrong with it but if everyone in your family is 6ft you might feel a little strange if you probably were suppose to be at eye level with them, but your a half a foot under. Plus a lot of teens turn to juice because they want to be an over night huge freek. Well a 6ft huge freek is a lot bigger than a 5'6 huge freek. I think generally speaking LOL not to mention imaging getting gyno at the age of 18. That would suck. Well ok, it would suck at any age. The irreversible damage that you could do to your liver. Wow the list of course goes on. I think all the teens need to be watched after and helped along their way. To simply tell them to grow naturally for 10 years isn't good enough. If they want to do it they will do it. Hell when did most of the true bodybuilders start. Hmmmm I recall Arnold (the god BTW) started young in his teens. All the teens need to just keep sucking in the info and if your going to do it make sure you know all the sides and try to be mature enough to look into the future and say gee is it ok if I stunt my growth now??? If your already maxed out in height hell hit yourself up with a gram of test EW J/K but ask any questions. No question is stupid. Just ignore any flames you might get.......there are some good bros on this board so someone will answer with an intelligent response. Good luck too alllll!!!!!!!!!!

BTW I have to agree with Retabolil2

 

[110%]

i am 18 and will say i know that i will take steroids later when i am older around 20 or 21 i assume now, but i do not agree with how people blame an 18 year old that considers taking steroids as an escape and way out to get big, that is not true at all. i have considered doing them sooner a few times but for reasons that it accelerates progress so much, it is not a way out at all; i would still train just as hard and keep to my diet as i currently do, it would just be another factor to help impact my results. If someone was 18 and to do their research, use in moderate and safe doses, and not just do it as a way out but have been lifting for a while and is dedicated to bodybuilding and understands the decision he is making then i think it is their decision to make and not as bad as people make it out to be.

I will also say the reason i am waiting now is not because i havent reached my genetic potential, because really what is the point of this as people say, if one says wait till u reach ur genetic potential to use then basically they are saying they want ot get bigger, so if u believe this what is wrong with researching and doing the work and then using steroids to accelerate ur progress before you reach your genetic potential (whats the point of waiting the extra couple years to reach ur natural genetic potential and have wasted that time where you could have put on more size)? the sole reason i do not use now is because of the impact it claims to have on growth, and i have heard you hit another growth spurt around 19-20 and fell i can be confident i will be done growing by then.


With this said, i also have some questions that i am wondering to help me start to research the use of steroids. Basically i am wondering where do i start, the different kinds of sterods and what each one is supposed to do and the dose to use of each i woul dfigure to research second, wouldnt i want to start by looking itno like the difference between oil based and water based and the general info i need to konw. basically ihvae no info at all right now and no knowledge, and woudl ike to start my research, so if you could help me with where to start with websites i can go to i would be very appreciative.

Back on track

Once again the focus of the thread is to post as much research and personal knowledge in regard to the disruption of natural growth of skeletal frame due to AS use be teens. This seems to be the biggest controversy when it comes to premature use of AS. Myth or Fact that is the question.

where i went to high school, you were judged soley by your performance on the football field. Even talk about steroids was taboo, but under it all, it seemed like if someone didnt come out and be outgoing about juicing, the coaches left a blind eye on that person. my senior year when i was 17(yeah this is going to sound really unintelligent, but maybe by me telling this story someone else will keep from doing it) one of my friends ordered some deca and dbol from some place online. He sold me a syringe of "deca" for 20 dollars which was filled with 2cc's of something (probably not deca). he told me to take one injection every other day of .5 cc and to find a spot where i didnt hit a vein and stick with using that one spot. About 2 weeks after my last "injection" i was out playing football just messing around with some of my friends, and my leg sort of popped, and burned like heck. Well it didnt get better, so i went to see a physical therapist. I had this lump of scar tissue the size of a golf ball on my right quad. I had somehow managed to tear my right quadricep to pieces, well maybe not that bad, but bad enough that i had to go through 6 months of PT before i could run again. I missed my senior year of track, and more than one walk-on recruiting trip for football. Yeah it was really stupid.
