This is my first visit to this site in a while. I did 1 cycle well over a year ago. I put on about 20 pounds of LBM and was very pleased with myself. I had the reassurances of people online and a few athletes I know that I would keep most of it. I did for a while. 4 months post cycle I was hanging around +15. I kept eating well and working out and eating well. In the time that has passed, I have very gradually gone back to about +3, where I would easily be now if I hadn't done that cycle. The drop was so gradual that I didn't really notice it. I now firmly believe that AS gains are not maintable in the long run, unless you were very small to begin with. Your body will eventually revert to normal without the occassional boost. All you people that talk on here about "gains kept" try going 2 years without a cycle and see what you are really keeping. I'm not criticizing anybody, just putting this out there for people that might be considering their 1st. I really don't care at this point. I am very happy with my build and am over the whole get huge thing. My health and stress come way before my muscle size. I have also found that I am much better at grappling/fighting at my natural weight(200) then I was at my juiced weight(220) In case anyone is curious I am 6`1. I have better endurance and coordination, and I am more than strong enough to handle the juice heads. Like I said I really am not criticizing anyone, just throwing out another point of view than what is normally pushed on this site. Take a long term view of what you are doing and see if it is really worth the acne, needles, diet, money, mood swing, legal risk... Best wishes to everybody.
