I was gonna juice at 16(for football) and decided against it. Made a promise to my self that Id try to max out naturally and then use gear after I was 21.(21 in FEB!!!) Honestly it had more to do with the naturally maxing than age. If I were 17 and plateued for more than 3 months I would have used gear. The answer your gonna get alot is wait till your 21. I guess Id say if your naturally maxed, go for it. Be harsh on that judgement of maxed though.

I did have a growth spurt at 20 so who knows. You may have some growin to do. You may not.

you are certainly not gonna hit your natural plateu at 20, or even 30. Its not necessarily about that. I say put 4-5 yrs of dedicated training under your belt before you run a cycle. Certainly no need to start at 19 or younger either. Once you knwo enough about them to make a decision, your decision will probbaly be to wait longer so take that how you want to. You don't want to burn out on tha anabolics at 24 either do you? when in doubt, wait.

In rare cases it looks like people can grow until 24 or so. Doctors can measure the bones in your hands to predict approximately how tall you will become.

As for when to start, that is personal choice. However without diet and training know how you will be held back, and I'd say of the two diet is going to be the toughest to nail down.

exactly!

i'm pissed just got disconnected and lost what i'd written, but to some it up i know i'm naturally gonna grow bigger when i hit 20-21

thats the 1 thing stopping me juicing right now

just annoys me when i'm not that much bigger than a lot of other guys who don't lift, i really wanna start standing out!

very fustrating, just gotta keep it goin, diet is the toughest thing

peace

Dig this youngblood, Don't play yourself like that. Give yourself a chance to see what you're work'n with , and then consider if thats the only way to get what you want. It's really not a good thing to do just because you ain't swell'n up fast enough and you got some extra chips to flip, Keep yo scrilla( money) in your pockets,Chill , live, and let God do his thing with your hook up and see what you can be naturally before you become " supernatural" playa!

This and more I claim from each victim or new toy as I have come to think of them lately.I feel tha power of tha Voodoo all my Jamaican and Zulu forefathers died to keep secret and pass into me. This is my birthright, my gift if you will.

Yeah, I've thought about juicing myself at 16 for football. But I've decided against it. I've only been lifting for a little over a year and I'm too young. The one time I would use it would be before my senior season, and that would be too better my chances of playing college ball, And even then I'd only prolly run like 8 weeks of D-Bol, and some injectable that would give me good gains and not stay detectable for a year like deca does. Either way, I'm already 5'9", an inch taller than my dad, and my mom is only 5'3", So I'm not too worried about stunting my growth. I figure I'll prolly just stick to creatine, glut., whey,a nd multivite. But when I'm like 24 then it's over.



back for the first time....

there are 4 things majorly wrong with the 3 sentences you wrote...and surpriseingly enough they arent even dealing with your age(even though its not good)..

A-If you bought T-Bomb, chances are you went into gnc plunked down some cash...and got something you know nothing about...

B-You probably did no research...why can I guess this? ....cause you bought a very crappy PH(tbomb)..one of the worst on the market dosage wise, review wise, and science wise

C-You used 2 1-t ph's at the same time...you would have gotten the same results just upping your m1t.

D-Your not even doseing properly because m1t, for best stability dosages should be split up and taken multiple times a day


This is why....age plays a role...but more importantly knowledge plays a bigger one...what age to start matters so much less than haveing the proper knowledge about what your gonna put in you...

Im not doggin ya bro...eveyone starts somewhere, even if its by makeing a mistake...just do alittle more time searching about what your gonna take next cycle, rather than jump into it

Bro ive been fallowing what it says on the back of the bottle witch is two 20 mg's once a day. And I figured there was a difference in the two when one has tetrahydropranyl ether and M1t doesnt. HMM ???what about that.

2 x 20mg once a day? Should be split through the day, and 40mg is a bit high.

M1T is just methylated 1 Test, THP is used to make the compound fat soluable.

The benefit is to have it in your system for more than a few hours a day bro, every drug has a half life, it is not in your body for the entire day.

If you want positive nitrogen retention and the benefits of the steroid, spread it out. In fact 5mg 4x a day would be spectacular.

Sure you feel it more because you are using more at a time, if I take an entire week of pills before one days workout I'm sure I'd feel it more too, but thats still not the way to do it.

i wouldnt drop it..i mean ya did pay for it....but i doubt its adding much to the stack....

as for burst of strength..your strength should be going up while on the cycle..but for the most part you arent gonna pull a Popeye...and getta hella strong minuites, even hours after injestion... God i wish spinach did that for me:-P would save me alot of $$

also dont forget to be eating properly....all of your gains are gonna come from the dinner table....the drug just makes your body use that food alittle more efficiently

Razor blade works great, most of the time. Just figure something out so parts dont go shooting across the room.

If you want to grow you have to eat, drugs wont do much on thier own but offer some strength.
