I totally get it. The curiosity, the greed to have more, bigger, better now - it’s very natural with what we do & why we’re doing all this in the first place. I am just saying that the notion that more is better is a fallacy. Taking more drugs WILL allow you to gain size, weight & strength faster.
What it cannot do is allow you to gain quality contractile tissue greater than whatever your unrealized rate-limiting factors may be. If you cannot eat enough calories because you become too toxic to digest it all, or just can’t stomach X,000 calories, or missing necessary micronutrients for cellular processes like zinc for IGF1, etc, or bp and lethargy are so bad you can barely train to generate stimulus, and so on. Even if you can meet the demands now, at some point you run out of road at X dose, and if you can’t take even more drugs then the progress is done.
Plus, the risk of injury with rapid increases is VERY real. I NEVER worry that the power is going to be there come time to compete - I worry that my tendons stay attached during the lifts I’ll attempt to perform. It’s not how much nitrous I can spray - it’s about trying to get the horsepower to the ground without blowing the driveline somewhere.
Look up any SHIC cycle results and you’ll see plenty of guys who ran into issues that end the run, very often injuries, health scares or just feeling terrible. Using big doses is one thing if you are adapted to it, like guys staying on grams of stuff, but rapid increases into very new territory are never a good idea.
