well congrats on a good log.. but about the age thing.. i hope you are completely fine with being 5'9 because you will never be 5'10..
and yes plenty of ppl still hit spurts, even in college
but nice gains man
The height was one of my big concerns. I checked with my doctor before I began the cycle, and he assured me that I wouldn't get any taller lol. But I assumed that since my body is already maturally proportioned
dude u should still be happy with your cycle.. your 180 at 18 and doing 2x your body weight.. im 22 and cant even do that yet.. although im pretty close ... i dont see u growing anymore either.. im not a doctor but i think your fully matured by now.. hell i havent grow since i was in 6th grade..
doctor also told me i'd never be able to lift weights again after my nerve damage.. ya just never know man.. but too late now.. no need to dwell on the "what ifs". nice cycle.. i cant wait to start mine
Just got back from the gym. Did chest, tris and shoulders.
My strength is still up and my weight is 185-6 after yesterdays lunch at the chinese buffet.
The gyms scale is 4 pounds too heavy - it says I'm 190.
I'm thinking about starting creatine after I'm done with the Blue Up pills - I'm running them 3/day until I run out. I'm also running the reduce xt 6/day until I run out. I'm bumping the nolva down to 5mg/day for the last week.
Everything is going good, feeling back to normal and then some
looks like you had a good cycle dude. you only gained a couple of pounds but you look alot leaner and bigger still! and some people are too pushy on the age thing... don't worry about it it was your personal choice. arnold juiced when he was very young, and hes one of bodybuildings legends.
Young - Congrats on a successful cycle, though, you may not see it because of what the scale says. Don't look at weight gain as a measure of cycle success, as scales do not read the difference between fat weight lost v. muscle weight gain - just net gains/losses. Your strength gains were phenomenal and even though you may not weigh much more, your appearence is much bigger. I am not going to yell at you about your age, others did so already, but I am glad that you realize you probably didn't need it. I just hope others do the same BEFORE starting a cycle.
Yes, Arnold used steroids at a young age, but we are not all Arnold. The majority of those under a fully matured age (whatever that may be for that given individual) will not walk away from a cycle unscathed. This type of statistical syllogism is completely flawed and I urge you to take a more cautious standing on the subject. The occurences where kids (or even some adults) use steroids without ever understanding them and completely ruin their endocrine system are the occurences that get good, efficacious products banned. Teenagers are going to do what they want, when they want. So, realizing this, its better for you to discourage the use of steroids until the body is properly aged, and educate them as to why they should not use them, rather than blindly just supporting them and using Arnold's use at a young age as the basis for your argument.....
I agree with you. He did do his research and at the very least one could argue that he even went so far as to find out if he was fully matured. He did go above and beyond with planning and supporting himself, but he is an exception to the rule. The real problem I had with your comment was that you used arnold as a skape-goat for his underage use. Had you made the same argument previously that you did to me would have resulted in a much different comment from me.
be careful eating to cut weight on your PCT
