Peter's Muscle Builfing Blog With Anabolic Steroids

Background

No doubt you've heard of the horror stories involving steroids and of course we have all seen the freakish end result of steroids each year up on the Olympia stage. I though it might be both refreshing and a little more relevant to write a blog detailing how a normal guy with average genetics would fair using steroids. I completed a 10 week cycle with and additional 3 weeks post recovery and have included all the steroids I chose to use and why, the positive and negative results and what kind of training regime I undertook. I'm not here to discuss the ethics of taking steroids, nor am I promoting the use of them and I am by no means an expert of any kind. This is merely a blog of one guy’s experience.

Let me begin with a quick self introduction. At age 16 I was 188cm tall and weighed 65 kg. For a teenager who liked physically competitive sports that tall rake like body simply had to change. I had always admired the physics of my favorite cartoon characters such as Superman and the Hulk. Their massive shoulders and rippling arms had long been something I had aspired to. So, at age 16 I began weight training. Like any new sport it took some time to fully understand the weight lifting ethos and master all the basic techniques, but After some time I began to see progress and once I felt that awesome sensation of my first bicep pump I was hooked. I made steady progress into my mid 20's until I was struck down with 2 serious injuries due to football. These injuries cost me 2 years of training and ended my competitive sport playing days.

Since about the age of 26 I've trained constantly with only a few minor injuries and interruptions. I’m currently 33years old and although I was happy with my state of my body there was a desire deep within me to become bigger and stronger. As I passed 30 years of age I found myself training more to just keep in shape than to make progress. 5 nights a week of weight lifting at gym had become 3 nights a week lifting and 2 nights of cardio just to keep the love handles at bay and the weight down. I decided I wanted more than to just tread water. In my early years of training I tried every kind of protein powder imaginable. The only result I noticed from using protein drinks and pill were that my wallet always seemed lighter than it should have been. I began to search the net and tried to find as much information as possible before taking the next step. After a month or so of comparing prices, side effects, benefits, risks and rewards I apprehensively made the decision to try my first cycle of steroids.

My First Cycle

After deciding on Anabolic247.com as my supplier I then had to decide on a specific body goal that I wanted to obtain. Before starting my cycle I was 188cm and weighed in at a tubby 97kgs. I had reasonable arms and chest but my waist was flabby and unattractive and I had no vascular to speak of. So, I made the decision that I wanted to increase my overall size and muscularity whilst narrowing my waist and perhaps see those elusive abdominal muscles that had been hidden for so many years. For these reasons I decide to stack two well-known mass building steroids, Deca Durabolin and Sustanon. I wasn't sure about how to lose the weight as I had tried everything I could think of but fortunately Anabolic247.com sent me some complimentary Clenbuterol. I had never heard of this product before but it was by far the best product I've used to burn away the fat and also provide a noticeably energy burst if taken before training. I used Vitamin B-6 to help my liver deal with all the extra work I was forcing upon it. I also used Nolvadex to ensure or protect against the horrid side effect of gynecomastia (man boob syndrome),

My first cycle was 10 weeks on the juice and then about 3 weeks waiting for my body’s androgen level to drop to a low enough level. Then 20 days on post recovery cycle. Here’s a rough outline of what I did.

Training Schedule

Below is my basic training schedule. It is very simple, never working more than 2 muscle groups at a time. I often change the upper body combinations to make sure each workout is a little different. Monday could just as well be chest/triceps or even chest/back.

I think it's important to always be thinking about your workouts ahead of time. So when you enter the gym you have the whole work out planned out in your mind. Also I carried a small note book with me and just kept a log of what exercises I did and how many sets, reps and the weights I lifted. It’s very easy to forget from one week to the next exactly what you did the previous week.

Because my body seems to be a little injury prone I allow 3 days off just to fully rest my muscles. I changed my workout style a little bit for my cycle. Rather than do the usual 10-12 reps per set I settled on 8. This enabled me to focus on lifting as heavy as possible and seemed to be quite successful.

Positives

Clearly the most positive result for me was the gain in size and strength. I went from a flabby 97kg to the hardest I've ever been at 105kg at the peak of my cycle. My entire upper body filled out into a really nice muscular shape. I also achieved a great amount of weight loss so it made my gains in muscularity look even greater as my shoulder to waist ratio dramatically changed. I have never come close to having a six pack and yet now I see most of the muscles and am perhaps another 6-8months from achieving my ultimate goal. It's difficult to describe the feeling of being on steroids when you’re at the gym. My workouts became very intense and focused. As I was able to increasing lift more and more a definite sense of pure testosterone driven male power and confidence came over me. I passed so many of what I assumed to be my limits. For example, my chest db press has been stagnant at 20kg for about 1 year and yet in just 10 short weeks it raised to a personal best of 34kg x 8reps x 4sets. This was a common pattern for all of my exercises. Not only was I was able to lift much heavier weights than ever before but I was able to keep my form which is so important. In general all my weight levels went up at least 25% and in some cases they doubled.

It’s a strange experience to see everyone in the gym slowly getting smaller and thinner, but that’s what it feels like when you are growing so rapidly. Those guys who were at least a couple years ahead of me in progress now didn't seem so far away. During my cycle my motivation level was extremely high. I had to force myself to have rest days. I guess I wanted that unmatched feeling of a steroid fueled pump. During workouts my muscles grew and filled with more blood than I thought was possible and the feeling can only be described as awesome. Toward the end of my cycle when I was feeling the full effects I had to really stop and look in the mirror to check if that was actually my body I was looking at. It was an amazing transformation.

I think for a lot of people, their own body image and how they feel about their body is directly linked with many other faces of their lives. This is very much the case for me. When I'm training hard and feel good the rest of my life seems to follow in the same organized disciplined manner. This was the case during my cycle. Perhaps one of the most surprising and yet welcome side effects was in my relationship with my girlfriend. Not only did she begin to really love my new body but my libido increased quite dramatically. We have been together for more that 2 years and the past 3 months while on steroids has been the best 3 months of our entire relationship. Enough said.

Negatives

When taking steroid one must automatically assume the many possible risks. Even taken in reasonable dosages the long term effects for me are yet to be determined and that are always a sobering thought. I attempted to do as much research as possible regarding the steroids I chose, dosages per week, cleanliness when injecting and finding a reliable trustworthy supplier etc. Perhaps the most annoying side effect for me was the acne. It began on my back just as little red dots and slowly spread to my shoulders and down to my forearms. It wasn’t a serious case but noticeable enough for me to have to wear a t-shirt to cover the many red spots on my body. I'll definitely purchase some ant-acne medicine before I begin my second cycle. Many people talk about road rage. Personally I experienced nothing like this. There were times when my patience for small menial things seemed to fray a little easier than usual but nothing that I couldn't handle.

20 sachets mean 20 injections. Overall the injection process went smoothly with only a little blood spilt. I only injected into my gluts rotating from cheek to cheek for each shot. I was careful not to use the same spot twice to avoid creating scar tissue. It wasn't all bad; the masochist in me quite enjoyed the pain and watching to roids flow into my body. I always felt very strong after an injection despite this most likely being more of placebo high.

Perhaps the greatest negative is the risk. While all my products were very well packaged and I had no problems, there still is that small element of risk of finding yourself in a legal situation if caught. For me, I couldn't relax from the time I paid the money until the last package arrived. Fortunately all packages did arrive, but it’s perhaps the most important thing you need to think about before purchasing steroids.

Another Side Effect

I had to deliberate as to which category to put this last side effect in as it is both positive and negative. I trained, ate and slept in a very strict manner and as I reached about week 7 of my cycle my friends at gym beginning to notice my growth. One man said to me »You are bigger and bigger every time I see you". While this is great for the ego one must remain rooted in reality when dealing with what is often an illegal substance in most parts of the world. I wore my baggy t-shirts to gym to both conceal my acne and my ever increasing size. I would have loved to have worn a tiny tank top for my chest/biceps workout but couldn't. For these reasons I placed the final effect on the negative. If someone is going to familiar with the visible side effects of roids they are most likely to be a gym orientated person. I always took the utmost care at gym and was aware of my behavior at all times. You simply never know what kind of job the person next to you on the treadmill has.

Conclusion

It's now About 8 weeks since my last injection and 3 weeks after my post recovery cycle. My weight is currently 102kg. I'm now a solid 5kg heavier than when I started my cycle. However, the ratio of fat to muscle has dramatically changed. I have lost a little size when compared to the peak period of my cycle but I can clearly see the progress I have made and I have been able to hold on to some substantial gains. I am a lot more vascular now and for the first time in my life can see my abs. They aren't all there but I'm close and motivated. The acne is subsiding and I’m feeling good. It was a very positive experience for me and my motivation to train has never been higher. I made at least 1 year worth of progress of normal training in 10 weeks. If I have any advice to give it would be to take as much care as possible when injecting to avoid any complications/infections. Keep your product well hidden and be sure to monitor you behavior in the gym and in your personal life for any changes. Also, listen to your body and look for and of the negative side effects on a daily basis. As with most thing ordered over the internet I was a bit suspicious whether I was getting the real thing or not. But, I have to say the products supplied to me by Anabolic247.com where great and helped me achieve perhaps greater results that I expected.

As far as my training post cycle, I would say that most of my weight levels have dropped a little but overall all weights lifted are higher than before I began my cycle. As I stand and look in the mirror today and look at my before and after pics it brings a smile to my face and sense of satisfaction. I definitely intend on doing another cycle but this time I will be better prepared. My motivation is still so high for training and I just can't wait to start the second cycle.
