Me?
I've been lifting steadily for quite some time now. I began lifting around 19, and was so into it that I overtrained. I'd be so excited to work out that sometimes I'd work out for a month at a time without taking a day off.
Nutrition wise, I'm set. I use to track my calories, but since I'm bulking right now I'm not too worried about it. It's winter here, but in the summer I slam myself via cardio and get pretty cut. Jogging six to eight miles a day is usual for me in the summer.
I only became interested in steroids a few months back after realizing that my routines had stagnated and I had reached a plataeu.
You see, for some reason last year I contracted a weird kidney infection. I travel a lot, so the doctor told me it was probably from the airplanes and uncomfortable car seats. I woke up one day pissing blood. Not fun, believe me.
Anyhow, that incident put me out of workout commission for some time. My back hurt, bad, and I had no energy. Oddly, ever since then I've felt very weak.
On a positive note, since I began my first cycle, I feel stronger than ever. I'm really happy with my results thus far. I consider myself to be a fairly cerebral guy and I always analyze everything and take all factors into consideration. I held off taking anything until I did enough research. All things considered, I'm more than impressed. In a weird way, I think this is exactly what my body needed.
