you ever think of quitting steroid usage and going natural?

[phatrr]

Sure. Especially as I've trained way more "off" than "on".

But it seems like something always happens to make me realize that there might not be a phatrr tomorrow.

Sunday an acquaintance of ours dropped during her workout from an aneurism rupturing; she's in her mid-40's. Thankfully she was working out in a gym, and 911 was able to save her life. She never touched a drug in her life, short of aspriin, antibiotics, the usual crap we all get. No symptoms leading up to it.

I'm going to make the most of the time I do have, and that means I'm "On".

I worry way more about dying on my motorcycle than I worry about dying from complications related to AAS.

I figure I will do AAS for about 2 or 3 more years...I just turned 23.

I dont see how gear is that bad for you in moderation with off periods equal to on periods. Aslong as BP, liver, lipids all in check each cycle shouldnt be more dangerous than speeding on a motorcycle like Cracker said.
I would only give up for worrying about my health which I do worry about but when you see all the pros banging in 5g a week of shit and all living for years after 10-20 years of steroid abuse you wonder how bad for your health they really are.
After my last cycle (test pop and tren- 6 weeks only) my cholesterol was in normal range, bp up a little, liver, etc all fine so I`m unsure whether the ten cycles I have ran have even caused me any damage at all. Time will tell.
If your health can be kept in check then I dont see why someone would give up - its fun and helps to break thru plateaus, and being on test is wicked!

before my lasy cycle which ended in nov, i had taken off 18 months, longest layoff since i was 18. now31. getting ready for next cycle. instead of doing 3 or so cycles a year, from now on, the most just 1 12-16 weeker. nothing too crazy really, except for the tren before last 1 i thought i may have been done for good, but the tren was calling me like crack.

I'm sure many have thought about it......I'd like to know if anyone has actually done it.

 

[i am what i am]

I think about just because I am young and still want to have kids. Enough to push any guy to want to quit. But all the literature that I've read states that everything is reversible.

I agree. I`d be interested if anyone knows what sides can take place as long as u keep everything in check.
If one does cv, eats low sat fat, takes the right health supps, etc has blood checks and all is good, having kids shouldnt be in jeopardy?

well for the moment i have no plans to get back on. my last cycle was around 27 mths ago (maybe more, i don't remember). for me, AAS ended up being a crutch to cover up for poor training. now i am learning to train my body better natty. if and when i decide to take the plunge again, i will really have my training well laid out.

most pro's consider under 1 gram a week as natural ......

So ya ... i've been natural for some time now
