Too Old To Juice?

[Deadly Impact]

I have been sitting back and reading this board for some time now. Seen plenty of posts from guys wondering if they are too young to try AS.

I am wondering, am I too old? Is 38 too old to start?

Let me give you some history. I have been lifting since I was 14 (to some degree or another). I always wanted to be huge. But it never happened. I slowly got stronger, but never got anywhere near the huge ripped look I wanted.

Should I try AS? Or should I live out the rest of my life in a small 180lb body?

Should I go through my Doctor for this?

DCS ya, guys your age can someitmes have simple deficiency and normal replacement dosages can do alot. However, it is not likely, you are still pretty young. TO use aas in large dosages is a big descision and you need to do alot of research to know how to do it correctly. No docotr will support you using supraphysiological dosages of testoterone unless they are weird.

agreed!

and remember, unless theres something seriously wrong, they can have a really positive if the cycles are done intelligently

Too old??? Hell, I'm 51.............do I look too old? You are too young to need hormone deficiency replacement. You may in another 10 years.
From what you said, you just have "hit the wall" like we all do eventually in natural training. Then, it's decision time....is this lifestyle important enough to you to step across the line to steroid use. It makes a huge difference. My natural body weight was around 180 many years ago, now I'm at 240 and I'm cutting.
But there are some serious considerations; legal, health related, etc.
I'll say this, I've never felt better.

I knew the iron master would have a reply on this one... I cant add to anything he said... never too old!

 

[ironmaster]

Damn, Vexed, you make me want to come to Spain....my 3 favorite things listed there in your sig line. Everyone gives me shit cause I take a siesta everyday.

 

[vexed]

Well shit grandpa just cause your jacked like your 20 doesnt mean you dont need sleep... I am not spanish but I love spain... I love $2 primo!!! and man my price went up to a whoppinh $3 because of the shortage

Spanish chicks are hot as a rule at least in southern spain I wasnt impressed owth much outside of that... But the women of JEREZ are drop dead gorgeous!!!

 

[ironmaster]

I'm there, brother, soon as I retire, which ain't long....soon as I get these kids out of college. Speaking of jacked, you should see my boys. They both kick my ass in the gym. My oldest boy can clean and jerk more than the "big" guys bench.
Drop me a line sometime and tell me about Spain. I'd be like a kid in the candy store.

The first time my business partner walked me into a pharmacy (one owned by a friends brother who happened to own a gym go figure ) and was like what do you need I was like 300 clen some sustanon testoviron nolvadex etc... and the guy just came out with a baggie after all was said and done i had a bag of gear and it only cost me $50... what a beutifull memory...

Man I am finally not feeling like a little bitch I am back in the gym now after a 2mos hiatus due to moving and gf... I wanted to spend as much time with her as possible, but the day she left on the plane was the sam day i injected! I am finally able to walk around like a badass again... I must have been down to 200lbs feeling like a little runt... lost about 20 in the 2 mos shitty diet non existent traiing... This time I want 230

Oh the gyms here suck though... Better make friends with the navy guys in rota and they can get you on base to train with them.. The navy gym will take your breath away!

If you have a consistent background of weight lifting and you've hit a plateau then you're where I was at 5 years ago, when I started AS at 40. It's been the best decision I've made in relation to moving ahead, but I haven't done any monster cycles but kept them strong and simple. Read and research and start. You're still young-no matter what the 20 somethings will tell you on this board. Look at Ironmasters pic-I'm willing to bet he looks better than 95% of the people logging on here, and guys like him make a good role model for us older guys.

 

[Jeff_rys]

that is an understatement

More like better looking then 99% of the board (better than me, that's for sure).

SHit i am 22 my workout partner is 41 and he started when he was 40, growin like a mofo
never too old to start, i would recommend an exam and bloodtest first though

 

[slash747]

Too OLD?????

Me and my Friend 25, and 26, have a friend who is about 40.

Not only is this guy 3 times the size of us , He picks up all the hot chics our age, Dont you old fuckers got anything better to do like pick up girls closer to youre own age and leave all the younger chics for us!!!

 

[anabolic24/7]

... i would recommend an exam and bloodtest first though

Good advise for anyone on AS. Frequent exams and bloodwork are very important at any age.
BTW I'm 35, join the club Deadly Impact, as slash said... it does wonders for "middle age syndrome" heh heh heh

I'm 42 and love the gear. Makes you feel young again.
And Ironmaster, I do snatches, clean & jerks, and front and back squats. How much does your son C&J?

 

[RADAR]

Took my last cycle at 39 made great natural gains after that starting my next cycle at 49 now & strong as an ox........RADAR

 

[ironmaster]

Cujo, he has his college's record at 387, but he was lighter then. He got 405 easy 2 nights ago when we were up at the gym. People stop and stare when they hear all those 45's clanging. He weighs 230. Plays Div1 football. I know this is not olympics material, but not bad for natural. How about you?

Damn, Radar, you are an old fart - almost as old as me. Good job, hanging in there for 10 years natural. Lot of guys quit after they go off the sauce, cause it's so much harder, esp. in your 40's. I know from personal experience, it's tough.

Jeff, you ain't no kid either, are you? I hear you are a large fellow as well.

I think GH is the best thing going in a stack for us older lifters - I'm producing 60% less naturally than these young guys - so I damn well supplement it.
