wtf is it just me or do you feel the same

[keepnitreal]

kay maybe a thread like this has been made but wtf seems like every 4th thread lately like literally is about a dude who cycled and reading along, I see he has weak diet
(ex. with a guy who had like 10 shakes in his diet)
or people with minor improvments
- a dude who uped his bench from 165 - 220 on cycle..!?

WHAT! call me old fashion and im sure the exp. guys on here would agree, you were probably benching 2 plates for reps before you even considered AAS right?

Why is it that the guys now just feel like they can get on the juice and itll turn into a pro over a span on 12 weeks.
The.more and.more I read around, I notice ALOT of people are on the gear (im pretty new to forum and the AAS so that was a shock to me) and they have no business doing it.

so ultimately question being in repect to Gear ...

Do you think its cause they THINK they have everything dialed and so they started cycling OR
Do you think they just want a quick fix ?

I think it is a reflection of modern society. Weather it's "reality TV" or video games; it's all instant gratification. I have taught guitar lessons for many, many years, and the quality of students has gotten so bad I won't do it anymore. Hard work is something that, IMO, people try to avoid these days, while at the same time wanting the rewards.

yeah i think its a waste when someone comes off and then loses everything and quits on the gym. i don't get it at all.

I totally agree with Buddha. The attitude is reflective of today's society, people want the results; just not the work it takes to get them.

You only need to look at the increase in sales of weight loss products over the last few years. This has become a billion dollar industry, as people crave the results they promise without the work.

For every dude that's told on here " your not ready for AAS" and goes 5 more take his place.

The Bro's here keep it real and hopefully in doing what they do time after time may save someone from fucking themselves up big time!

I only hope people are sensible enough to listen!

From what i heard from a friends son, who is early 20's and we could not convince him to wait or just train natural...

The girls of today, of the younger generation are not interested in guys who are fat or skinny, if your not Jersey Shore your a worthless bag of skin not worth dragging into a bedroom... and so these guys are eating dbol coz it makes them look "big" with no regards to protecting liver and/or cycle lengths, and lets not even discuss PCT or using test as the base of a good and well planned cycle.....

There's a lot of idiots. I started/am young but had a good base to start. Its ridiculous what these kids are doing. Makes no sense to me.

What's worse is people asking how to lower their T levels so they can get on TRT. Instead of looking at everything that's causing their low t - like terrible diet, lifestyle, stress, anti-depressants, lack of exercise, smoking, alcohol, AAS use - they look for the quick fix. IMO it's no better than the kids looking for a quick fix. "I don't work out well unless I'm on AAS. I must have low T. Time to blast cruise for the rest of my life."

More and more research is coming out showing that age significantly less to do with T levels than previously believed. TRT is going the way of anti-depressants and ADD meds. In a few years it will be a heavily over prescribed mask to symptoms of much greater problems. Sure, there are legitimate cases in there for SSRI's and TRT. But I guarantee most people didn't put the work in to make sure everything else was in order before starting treatment.

Most people these days, regardless of age, want a quick fix. It's hard to blame em when it's presented as a safe, simple solution to their problem. I know I take the bait too often.

This is way more than just a video game generation thing. Parents are putting their fucking kids on ADD meds at 4 years old. Throw some pills at it and the problem's solved. So what are kids supposed to think when they turn 20 and want to get bigger?

Btw, I'm one of those people who used aas when I could have gained naturally. I had shoulder surgery and didn't work out for nearly 9 months. Diet went to shit and lost a ton of muscle. I could have easily recovered naturally back to where I was, but I wanted a faster, easier solution.

I'm 28 now, but was prescribed anti-depressants at 13. After an hour of meeting with me - his prognosis was that I needed to start anti-depressants immediately. I wasn't depressed, just didn't care much about school at the time. After a couple years I was sick of the meds and started exercising, eating well, and living a more esteemable life. Magically I felt better. Imagine that.

It's only getting worse, especially in the US.

It has unfortunately become the American way...get what you want with little to no work for it. Need to lose weight? Try this super duper ab ripper and have a 6 pack in 6 weeks!! Sprinkle some of this nonsense fairy dust on your food and lose fat while eating what you want! Take this pill and gain 20 lbs of muscle in a month!! In between every fast food commercial on TV is a commercial for a drug or pill for our lazy ass society.

I think its funny that when approached by our home grown Americans in the gym they ask what I "took" to develop my body, when several people from outside of the US have asked me "what did you eat to look like this"
