Steroids?

[jason_]

I didnt want to ask this in anabolic zone because probably everyone will say its okay, but i just started working out last month, and my brother has been like like 2 years and looks really good, but there are 2 kids that are 16 at my school with huge arms, but he knows they both use steroids, and he doesnt, and he says he would never, but heres the thing, are steroids that bad for you? the 16 year old kid can bench like 3 plates, and the other kid hasnt been working out long at all, they can just lift a shitload of weights, but how bad are steroids for you

 

[Bonesaw]

very bad at that age. not for kids or people new to lifting

 

[spark]

Very bad. I started when I was 20, I am now 35. I currently am prescribed steroids to keep my hormone levels LEVELED OFF TO NORMAL. Will you grow yes, when you get older will you look good yes, when you get older due to steroid abuse will u suffer yes. Anyone who has used them at a young age, 16-22 will tell you not to use them if they are 30 and older. I have had both knees fixed, right shoulder fixed twice, double hernia surgery and I need knee replacements they say before I am 40-45 years old.

Now, again when your body matures and your hormones have settled down. I dont think anyoNe on this board will tell you they dont work. Their is a price everyone pays, you may not know it but you will pay a price. Oh did i tell you my heart is enlarged, I have high cholesterol. I am on blood pressure meds, cholesterol meds and pain meds til the day I die. So if any 16 year old want to end up like me. I am 34 years old, my doctors say I have the body (meaning tendons. Ligaments and joints) of an 80 year old. Help yourself, I am against them for anyone your age bro. Until your much older and you mentally can assess the situation you are putting your body in. Do NOT USE STEROIDS.

way to f u c k i n young, period. your not even done developing. been proven that at young ages like that have much higher negative effect in life

Could it be that those kids are just strong naturally and not necessarily on steroids? I know this one kid at the gym that he doesn't look like he has 6 months of training under his belt but he could bench 225 lbs with EASE. I swear this kid is around 140, maybe 150 lbs tops! Some guys are just born strong.

 

[ecot3c inside]

those are the kids that will be bald and fat by age 23.

Don't even think about it, seriously. You don't need it, they will pay for it in a few years, you'll end up better off.

If you want to beat them in the long run learn how to train properly, and learn all there is to know about diet management. Get the drop on them - do it properly now and when you're in your mid 20's you'll be fucking laughing.

Wish when i started at 16 i'd stopped fucking around with pointless arms routines and blender-bomb shakes and just focused on deadlifts and squats.

kids nowadays have absolutely noooooo work ethic. You produce more than enough test at your age to make substantial gains. Eat eat and eat some more but most of all be patient.

 

[ANIMALHAUS]

Sounds like typical high school drama & BS. Just because a kid can lift heavy he has to be on steroids?

Eat some fucking food, get plenty of rest and train hard!

How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is

kids nowadays have absolutely noooooo work ethic.

Ironical Statement

That every generation has stated kids have no work ethic.

They said it about your generation and mine.

Tell him to read Bulking for Idiots Part 1 & 2.

Seriously OP, not a great idea.

 

[GMO]

Those 16 year-olds on juice are going to be paying for it when they are older. Don't fall into the same trap...

 

[ANIMALHAUS]

All I thought about was pussy, beer, and going sideways in 2nd gear when I was 16, definitely not needles. lol.

Actually you would have received the same response in the Anabolic Zone forum.

I don't think there is 1 member here that would condone a teenager using AAS, very bad idea.

AAS are not bad for you if you're an adult using them in a responsible way. If you're a teen they can fuck up your endocrine system badly and possibly permanently, as well as stunt your growth by causing a premature closing of the growth plates.

 

[the_warchief]

IMO sounds like typical people that use steroids just to look good. If your a bodybuilder then go at it. 16 is Wayy too young though, I dont know what he was thinking. He must have not talked to anyone about it because anyone would tell him thats a shitty idea

 

[Captn'stabbin]

Honestly i run into all the big kids from high school and they are all small now, mostly balding and more stressed out than could possibly be imagined.

Put your time in and get the diet thing right. Training is the easiest part, weight doesn't mean shit unless your powerlifting...

 

[jtterrible]

you're in luck Midgard Labs came through for you.. see my sig

 

[LightBearer]

just laugh at thoes kids, they wont grow any taller, and if they continue to lift weights theyll be cycling for the rest of their lives bc they destroyed their endocrine system

 

[juggernaut]

[Pika]

Arnold use them at 14 right ? Look listen to these guys man 21 and above you must be lifting for atleast 2 years or yulr dum! .

 

[Gazhole]

Just a nice aside, a friend of mine who's a natural bodybuilder entered a non-tested show recently as a warmup to the British natural comp he's been working towards. He really didn't go in with any expectations, and was just doing it to practice his posing on stage.

He won his class. A few of the competitors who "use" complained that he shouldn't be allowed to compete in this comp because he's natural and a lot of them have run AAS. That makes no sense, obviously.

It just goes to show that even as a responsible adult taking steroids NOTHING can trump effective training, a good work ethic, and diet management. Just because these kids have taken steroids doesn't mean shit.

If you want to be big, strong, ripped, athletic, whatever - work hard and LEARN. Steroids are just one piece of the jigsaw, and won't magically turn you into a beast unless you're already pretty beastly without them.

Maybe try and give them advice tell them to some on here and let these guys let them no maybe they dntno there just kids i dont think we should laff at them bro?

Try talking to um man this is messed up!!

Lol...I'd love to hear that type of whining to judges. All of those guys are just embarrassed so that's why they are whining. Especially the guy who got second place in a non-tested show to a natural guy.

possibly??

Mr. Croxdale,

Before you say my maladies are not from taking steroids. How about asking how my health was before I juiced excessively? How about it made my health worse? How about 3 endocrinologists, hematologists (yes steroids made my blood disease more pronounced), 3 sports specialists, one being Burton Elrod...ya know him. The Tennessee Titans doc, we had a long talk one day sir. Maybe steroids didnt CAUSE all my maladies (as you called them) but they sure as hell made them worse. If you need my doctor's notes, you need my paystubs from where I missed work, you need the medication list I was on before? Your body, the 16 year old kid's body and my body are all different. You sir, post on powerlifting sites as well. You seem fairly intelligent, so intelligent you should know what causes my body to break down mwy not cause everyone's body to breakdown. But, again my maladies (again, as you called them) enlarged heart, high blood pressure, bad joints and tendons (from overloading my muscles and my soft tissue couldnt hold up but muscles did), was due to steroids. Before I began juice i was fine, I had doctors track my health because of my career, it declined, progressively with the maladiezzzzzzzzzz you wanted to argue about. These arent run of the mill docs sir. These are sports specialist, so remember, until a doc tracks your health and 100 others, dont say I was spitting out myths. Because I am a walking testimony bro.

The proper thing would have been to scsre the 16 year old kid along with me instead of trying to make my health issues nonrelated to juice. Step back and think about your post again, now that kid thinks he wont get high cholesterol, an enlarged heart or high blood pressure from juice. What if he does the same way I did. The same things I was warned of sir. Really? Really?
