Your Biggest AAS mistakes.

GatorMAG

New member
I would like to hear about everyone's biggest mistakes while using AAS? Cycles, PCT, gear...etc. Also explain your story a little bit. This will help out new users, such as myself, so maybe we won't make the same mistake.

Thanks for all your input.
 
thinking that winny eod 50mg shots would magically make me grow, i even did it for a few months. my friend was doing this and he looked incredible, it was obviously his genetics. then i learned about ef and found out that my liver is lucky to be ok, furthermore i was wasting that gear because i wasnt' eating right and i had no clue what pct was. i thought winny was a negative side effect aas and all it would do is build muscle.
 
One of my early mistakes was to not commit 100% to either a pure bulk or a pure cut. So my results were not as good as they should have been. Diet is huge...
 
Not to get all of my gear beforehand... I ran out mid-cycle and my source had quit selling. Had to go to some other guy and got underdosed shit.

Also, not believing that liver trouble can actually happen lol... took to many orals and ended up with elevated liver values for a year. Now I won't touch any orals lol

One last one... injecting into my quad too much. I have so much scar tissue there that I'm lucky if I can even get a needle in there anymore.
 
Put'n 4 cc's of something or another in my left quad alone. Needless to say, I couldn't walk for 2 weeks, and had to get a script for vicodin. Also..not taking pct as serious as I should have.
 
the first 2 cycles i did when very young, no clue about pct( this was 15-20 yrs ago)..my source at the gym( btw the owners son and jr. state bb champ) hooked me up with dbol and test..no pct,think about that ending.
 
Using a bottle of mexican aratest that I had already opened and used six months earlier. Heaven forbid I waste the other 5mg's. I shot my left glute with 3cc's, I felt an abcess come on the very next day. Three days later it felt better but as luck would have it I fell off a two story roof and landed right on the damn butt cheek that was otherwise destined to heal. Lucky, I admit, to have survived the fall, however, unlucky to hit the glute. I looked like I was half aborigini, huge swelling on the one side. Off to the e room. They freaked, wanted to do surgery right away, (only after I said I had insurance btw), and I asked why not just drain the damn thing and put me on a z-pack? NO, NO, we need to cut and drain and it's a special surgery that only can be done by some damn doc sixty miles away..... I told them that they had not even done a compartmentalization test yet..wtf? So, once they figured out what a compartm.... tool looked like they immediatly injected about 3cc's of air in my ass. I told them that they really should read the directions on the tool, and put salene solution in it first. So they did another test I asssume correctly. It came back at 42 psi.. bad, should not be over 25 ish. Determined to get fifty large from my insurance company they insisted on surgery. I told them (I have a BA in Sports Med) to give me a blood thinner, some anti biotics and a 18g x 1/2 inch needle with a 60cc syringe. Nope, they insisted I needed surgery. And, even with the special surgery I'd probably loose half my glute and not be able to run full on ever again, and lifting? never more than my own body weight if everything went right. I handed them my gown, put my clothes on and grabbed my car keys. Well, long to short, I drained my own ars every day for two weeks, took two cycles worth of z-packs, bained my brains out for a month and three months later was squating six hundred pounds again. My two mistakes were: listening to moronic doctors and even walking through the e-door, and using too large of a needle when draining my ars, it left a bit of scar tissue. All is well now, however, my white blood cell count is still a bit high. I've shot both glutes now, and when aspirating in one spot it still has a tiny bit of puss, however, I do not have a handicaped permit in my car like they wanted.
 
My biggest mistake was not doing proper pct when starting out first couple cycles.
Also, not eating right, steroids arent magic, bu they sure are nice if you eat, train ,and sleep and eat some more

not starting earlier :evil: why the fuck did i wait so long? oh yeah...cause i didn't know shit about it and didn't have a source. let alone i didn't know about EF.
 
biggest mistake was easily the fact that when most people start out, they don't get the best deals, and i was one of those peeps, ie. i remember paying 4-5 times the price for a bottle of test compared to what i eventually could find. Newbies...wish i could save you cash by posting reasonable prices for gear...but we can't ;) Shop around and look, my advise.
 
Using Tren in my first cycle without knowing what the word "Prolactin" is. (also no HCG in PCT... the combination of the two was bad)
 
Pushing my shoulder too hard when it started to hurt a little mid-cycle and not taking my bottle of liquidex and keeping tabs on my blood pressure while on.
 
i thik right now my biggest mistake mght be the fact i am not making them and having to pay way too much, when hteres a way to do things cheaper i want to do it that way.
 
Two big ones:

Starting a cycle without all of my gear in hand (even with EF knowledge)
Deciding to take AAS because I thought my jimmy would grow

All you can say is WOW to that. Takes the confidence out of a hospital real fast. Just think...you were almost one of those horror stories of using steroids. But Im glad things worked out and that you could pass this useful info onto other people. Great input!
 
I hated I didn't do enough research for my first cycle. I pussied out and was only doing 200mg/wk. of test. Nor was my eating where it should have been. I didn't know if I was cutting or bulking.
 
1. Thinking 19-nor and 4-ad would make one shit bit of difference.
2. Not realizing that I would bloat up as much as I did on test.
3. Waiting until 37 years old to start gear.

but just think...if you did die...the media would have seen the chance to make your story as you killed yourself because of steroids
 
Poor Diet Wile On Gear

No PCT...my first cycle I was a kid with a dottle of test with a pit bull on the bottle....banging that out with halotessin (sp) and no PCT.
I CRASHED HARD !! depression, loss of all gains and feeling sick for months afterwards.
Thats why now I am a huge advocate of small doses done properly to keep gains for ever.
 
Not checking out this site sooner!

Seriously though, I guess not training harder while "on" and PCT.... finished my deca, then ran a week longer of test e... started HCG right away and Clomid a week later...then nolva a week after that.... don't ask! I read it on some other board and they swore it was the way to go...boy was it not! I was a wreck.... mood swings, depression... now I know what girls go through every month....didn't know whether to cry or kill someone...needless to say, not a big fan of clomid right now.....live & learn!
 
my first bulker i did (deca 400 sust 500) i gained quite a bit of water weight, as soon as i'd done my last jab i started dieting hard and lost a lot of my gains, i realised what i was doing though and managed to salvage it by the time i finished PCT
 
1) Taking 2 ml of Mexican test combo called Testoprim-D in the quad. (dirty shit)

2) Starting with a Deca only cycle at the young ripe age of 18. Brovel Norandren 50 remember that shit.

3) Not doing any PCT for my first 5 cycles
 
Being 21 and letting my friend stick me with 3 different kinds of steroids that I had no Idea to this day of what they were. Then when I stopped I stopped working out and did no PCT. It was asinine.

That's a mistake(s).
 
using them in the first place, ignoring sides and injuries that built up while on, running tren so long it shut down my immune system, not eating enough

Yup. Nothing I wish more than to have never have stuck myself. I guess that's why I have unstuck myself for the time being.
 
Not doing research, and paying way too much for a cart of Fina in 1992. Not to mention that I took them orally, and wondered why i didn't get bigger. 2nd cycle was Anadrol by itself, and had nothing for PCT.... Talk about a crash.... After that, I stayed away from AAS untill I got internet access in 1994, and stumbled across Elite..... Was finally able to do research, learn what drugs do what, and learned about PCT.... After that, it was all golden.....

rizz

Similar to yours.

Being 21, seeing my friend who was all big, going to mexico, and buying everything in the pharm.

Injecting as much test as I could get my hands on, turning into a bloated slob, gaining 60 lbs in about 2 months, and thinking I looked good. Then promptly losing it all because I didn't know a damned thing about PCT.

To this day I still feel like I'm affected by that poor beginning (about 6 years ago).
 
No pct since I did my first cycle in the 80's never heard of it, not eating enough, and then shooting in the quad for the first time and putting about 4 1/2 cc's of gear in one quad! Messed me up bad!!
 
1. Using Excessive Dosages
When taking steroids, the more you take is not always the best way to go. Taking excessive dosages has become a huge problem with steroids today. It isn't only dangerous, but studies have shown it to be ineffective. The body can only use a limited amount of the steroid so the extra is turned into estrogen by the body.

2. Staying On Steroids Too Long
In several cases, steroid users avoid waring signs telling them not to go on a cycle more than 8 to 12 weeks without an off period. If an off period is not taken, there is a higher chance for the negative effects of steroids to occur. If there is no off period the body does not have a chance to recover from the steroids, so more damage is done. This also is terrible for the kidneys and liver.

3. Eating Poorly
Many people ignore magazines and educators that explain eating as being an important asset to growing, but the truth is, eating healthy has a big effect on the body. When on steroids the user must comsume between 4000 and 7000 calories a day, not meaning eat only fat foods. The diet must be high in calories and protein, but low in fat.

4. Training Incorrectly
When on steroids the training must be intense and difficult. Instead of the usual weight that suits you, you must do excess weight and strenuous work for the best gains. The workout should involve the maximum weight possible, and make progress each time.

5. Not Getting Regular Blood Tests
Steroids are very dangerous and can cause great problems. Blood tests should be done often and regularly. When steroids are first taken many tests become elevated but will return to normal with in a few weeks. During the off period tests should also be done to make sure the body is recovering properly. If there is a problem with the Blood test, consult a doctor that you can trust.

6. Using The Wrong Steroids
Many athletes will increase their chances of getting negative effects when they take the wrong steroids. The strongest steroids that build more muscle mass, have the most side effects. These drugs should be avoided if possible, unless there is a reason to have an unbelievable gain. But these drugs are very toxic and I would recommend not taking them.

7. Using Counterfeits
Counterfeit steroids are a bigger problem than you would believe, there are more counterfeit steroids in the market than you would think. These steroids offer no positive gains, and some give the side effects of real steroids. Taking counterfeit steroids is like injecting poison into your body, bad effects nothing positive..
 
This post is definitely a good one. I'm glad I've done off/on research for a year now before starting my cycle. It seems I've covered everything looking at yalls past mistakes, hopefully my cycle will turn out great! :)
 
Being too chicken (and maybe too stupid. . .er. . .ignorant) to get enough stuff (and the right stuff) to do it right. Live and learn.
