Welcome To Anabolic Minds! Introduction Thread!

Hey guys just joined today...finally! I've been lurking for while lol

I'm 26, 6ft 226lbs between16%-18'% body fat. Been training for about 10 years off and on but religiously for 2 years. Absolutely love everything about it...in the gym, in the kitchen, and reading and learning.

Just recently started getting interested in the anabolic side of lifting, natural, PEDs, and lifestyles to increase test. Can't get enough of it!

Anyway, glad to be here officially now.
 
Hi all. I'm Danny. 28 and live in Hull which is in Yorkshire UK.

Started a diet around 18 months ago and went from 19st to 14st. Looking to now gain as much clean bulk as possible to get that whole reversed triangle look :)

Already read a lot of forum threads but currently looking into a SARM cycle. Any help would be appreciated.

Have a great weekend!
 
Hey, I'm Jake!
I'm 21, (don't judge based on age!) been working in the supplement industry for roughly 2 years, was training for the Navy for about a year before a car accident f*cked up my back. Started getting back into weight lifting about a year ago still working around the injury but lovin it.

Hi All,

I joined to research and learn for you all. I am a raw powerlifter and have been training for about 2 years. Looking to learn more about supplementation and getting optimal performance out of the human body.

Hello all,

Not new here. I was on this site for years but lost my account info. First joined in about 2009, I think. Anyways, got married, kids, job, etc...and kind of fell away. Anyway, I taught HS for about 15 years, taught in a prison for a few years...as an employee not an inmate..no judgement though. I have BAs in English and Education, Masters in English and Education, and a PhD in Human Services. I just resigned as an associate professor at a local university to pursue writing full time. I am 44 years old, 6'6 320, and have been lifting for 20 plus years. I have been competing and training seriously for powerlifting and strongman for 15 years. I am taking one more full bore shot at reaching some personal goals in the weight room before toning it down a notch. I would like to hit some pretty heavy lifts before age makes those numbers unreachable. Lets be honest, age catches us all. Not saying I will stop training, but I want to hit my personal all time bests and crack the open top ten on a national level in the master's division. I currently train 6 to 7 days a week, eat 8 meals a day...all pre-made and weighed...pretty much either chicken, lean beef, or fish, brown rice and broccoli. After 10 years or so, I'm just used to it. I do not use protein shakes, or any of that crap you can buy at GNC. For all you young bucks blowing your money on supplements...stop! Eat more, lift heavier. I am certainly no stranger to cycles, and after many years of this lifestyle, I've learned a thing or two. So hello, I'm not a guru, but I will offer my advice if asked. Note, I am not a bodybuilder, I am a powerlifter. I respect the hell out of bodybuilders..real ones that truly dedicate their lives to the sport..the same as body builders (I would hope) respect and dedication that I have to my sport. I am looking forward to meeting and chatting with you all...time to eat..again..lol.

Welcome back! Sounds like you’ve been able to have a very successful and fruitful personal and professional life so far! I have a journalism degree and own HPS, among other health and wellness based businesses, but having that journalism degree leaves me with a soft spot for anyone who also appreciates the written word! Lmk if you ever need an editor/proofreader ;)
 
Welcome everyone!
 
Hello everyone I am a new member and wanted to say hello and wish everyone a wonderful day.
 
Just found this site after doing some research. Always been a big mofo, never lean.. I lift 4 or so times a week, powerlifting/srongman mostly.

Wanting to do more bodybuilding now that divorce has kicked me in the balls. Looking for info on cycles, so I'll be posting a few stupid questions shortly ?

Hi

Hi! My name is Angel, I reside in the West, but from the southeast. I’m 37 years old, I have been lifting on and off for 11 years. I had a complete hysterectomy in 2012 and ever since then I have been having issues losing fat, I can still build muscle but very slowly. I also have congenital hypothyroidism so it’s tough but I won’t give up so easily. I have tried various diets but I cannot find one that I want to make a lifestyle. I joined this thread to get advice and suggestions. Glad to be here!

Hey everyone new to the forum but not to lifting. A little about myself I was 120 pounds at 5’9” in high school and started lifting around 20. I’m now 30 and am right around 205 (not a cut 205 but not far either). I have used all otc products when I was younger and also had a major health condition at 17 that I feel put me where I am at. I just started trt due to low test and have felt like crap the past 6 years but still kept the lifting up even though I had to drag myself to the gym. I’m here to learn as much as I can. Thanks everyone.
 
Hey guys/gals

New here wanted to introduce myself.
Super excited I found this forum and can’t wait to learn from you guys. Thanks for having me on board.

I’m sure I may annoy some of you seasoned vets with my noob questions so sorry in advance lol.
 
Hello I'm NeedAUserName.

I'm new to these forums and as you can see I lack creativity by my username but I digress.

I'm new to lifting have been doing this for now 7 months and wish to continue my progress thus far. I'm a young guy and as previously mentioned an inexperienced lifter so I apologize in advance in my future posts if I come across as dumbass noob.

I look forward to the knowledge that you guys as a community here at AnabolicMinds will bestow upon me and will take all constructive criticism for what it is. Thanks to all now and later on in the future may we all grow strong.

Welcome! Don’t forget to search the board for previous threads if you have any questions... you can usually find your answers buried in here somewhere.
 
Hello.

I noticed an introduction was on the agenda after a familiarity with the rules and the like.

I’m 28 and I’ve been training off and on for the past 13 years. I originally started because I wanted to join the service and make it a career. That was short lived after a second tour to Afghanistan took a portion of my vision, nerve damage and some tissue loss.

I actually went to my local vocational college to learn how to weld. I work in a Fab shop and fortunately I’m able to make and modify equipment in turn for paid gym membership.

I hope to further my aspirations of a Zane’esq physique, further my knowledge and once again learn to love myself as opposed to being filled with frustration and anger.

Happy Travels
