do you hide PED use from folks?

[Volvo140G]

Girlfriends? Wives? Coworkers? Friends?

Not that you'd use it as an ice breaker for a discussion, but if asked - do you fess up? Or better yet.... how much do u tell them?

Discuss amongst yourselves....

Folks as in ppl, not your actual folks

It's pretty obvious to coworkers and my dad. Told my wife prior to starting so she knew what was coming. But I went from working out for many years with decent results, to all of a sudden in 2 months from my first cycle of Test E and Msten I blew up. So my pops asked me and I told him. Other guy at work I don't really care what they think, so nothing to hide.

 

[jbryand101b]

Don't ask me, and I'm not going to tell you about it.

 

[Volvo140G]

Don't ask me, and I'm not going to tell you about it.

Of course you won't lead with it, but suppose a longtime coworker says "dude what are you on" cause you've clearly blown up - do you admit? Make.something up?

 

[Dma378]

The guys I'm close to at work asked and I told them. A couple of them work out too so they're envious mostly.

 

[McCrew530]

I tell people what the compound does IE dries you out makes you retain glycogen helps you process calories better gives you energy in the gym enhances recovery but then I also go into diet and training habits. I work with a bunch of over weight people though so my work out habits alone stump them let alone my supplementation. Plus the second you tell anyone that you use hormones they automatically think " Ohhh thats why he is in good shape." instead of thinking correctly , this person busts his ass to look good and the gear helps him to do things a bit better than what he normally does.

I say I'm focusing on training for the summer.

I'm not going to talk steroids with people who don't know anything about them.
It's dangerous, and risky.

That first sentence of your post was reminiscent of a post you fuggin nailed in a shazeezee log (I think) about what "needs" to be told to a GF regarding this silly game we all play.

A+ post as well....

 

[Dma378]

Agree McCrew. But even the ones who don't understand see my habits (I change into my gym clothes before I leave work). They see how I eat in the lunch room. So even if they think I'm "cheating", they also see it's a lot of work as well.

Yea its my go to because like jbry said most people are ignorant of what stuff actually does and the convo usually turns into a morality debate rather than a factual based conversation of pros and cons of usage.

 

[McCrew530]

Ive never told. Never been asked either. Im sure some people suspect, but no one has come right out and asked.
I think if anyone ever does I won't tell the truth though. You never know when someone will be upset and try to use it against you.

Youre doing it wrong if no one has every asked you bro!
LOL

Absolutely. I doubt I could count on one had the amount of people in my company who wake up 3 hours early to prep food and hit the gym on a regular basis.

 

[McCrew530]

LMAO. Maybe. Ive had people tell me that other people have asked about me, but no one comes directly up to me. But maybe I should step it up...

Its either that or at 6 ft 210 people just know to keep their mouth shut and not mess with the big dude :fing02:

 

[Dma378]

I work with a bunch of thugs and ex cons anyways, so nobody really gives a shiit.

No actually I'm in aerospace parts manufacturing. I'm the Quality Manager at a pretty technical facility, but some of our best guys, myself included, have had a less than sparkly past.

 

[mixedup]

No one asks me if I juice they ask me if I just got home lol. But at work I wear dress ****s so no one really notices and at my gym we have ifbb pros and top.npc. I mean I'm pretty big for normal people.but my coach is like 200lbs 5ft 7 and 7% bf.so I work out in land of the giants

My wife knows she has always known since I started over 10 years ago. My wife trains now with a npc bikinin competitor and understands even better now so I'm lucky in that aspect.

Much like not harming dolphins while we kill the tuna, people have no clue why they feel the way they do about matters like this.

Ive had a few guys come up to in the gym and compliment me on getting bigger. I keep my bulks to winter time to conceal the "blowing up" effect haha

"na I just been eatin good, you just havnt seen me without a shirt in a long time"

I hate the term "on steroids" used on anything really. People just have no real idea what steroids are, or what they do to a man.

Winter bulk is always a good cover up

 

[JoshR]

I look them right in the eye and say "BCAAs and creatine brah". Jokes aside I'm open about it with my close friends and girlfriend. I just don't like talking about it with random people at the gym and my parents.

besides im a grown man, i really dgaf if they like it or not. i do it for me so.

THIS. I worked at GNC, although it payed well towards the end I started telling guys what was really up and started giving out websites where they could get ARA and things that actually work for half the price. Sales took a hit but GNC made me sick with their lies lol. People that came in there should have researched more too but I don't blame them all.

I know I figured out Thier bs real quick. I will buy protein there if I absolutely have to but that's it. The final straw was a fat guy and a guy in a wheelchair trying to sell me muscletech crap, telling me how effective it was!

right! And all the 'studies' by Tampa bay University they have on their bottles. Biggest joke ever!

 

[dbrock504]

I tell the people I trust that can handle the info maturely. I keep it away from my Mom and family friends.

I have nothing to hide. What I do is what I do.

 

[puccah8808]

I dated a guy who was afraid to tell me, he kept calling them "supplements". One day we were training together and I just asked him. He was really relieved and happy that I didn't care about it. Also, he was surprised at how much I knew. :thank you, AM:

 

[yates84]

I think a lot of the problem (and the reason I dont tell anyone) is that people don't know anything about PED/AAS except the scare tactics shown on tv.

Dude! Don't you know that stuff shrinks your ****?!

 

[Kickstart7]

Dude! Don't you know that stuff shrinks your ****?!

THIS! Man you hit the nail on the head. Everyone makes the ignorant argument that it shrinks your D***! Lol oh yea and of you do them you'll get pregnant and die too.

He became really comfortable and we talked about it quite often, because I was really intrigued by it. He even let me pin him.

Well I mean it does shrink something right next to that so it is easy to see how a non hormone user would react I mean if you say nah man it only shrinks your balls most will be just as aghast

Yah.... His balls where gone.

 

[Duffman86]

I've always just told people I train hard and eat big. A few co-workers have started asking though, noticed I blew up in size over the past few months. But I just start talking about how much I train, how many calories I eat, and how much work it is, and they quit asking quickly.

 

[Swolljaboi]

I just blush and say thanks for noticing my swoll.

 

[McCrew530]
