There are some topics that have become more commonly seen and discussed that I believe to be dangerous. Also I see fewer guys posting in warning. These topics aren't only perilous to the new user, more experienced user don't seem to be as cautious of them either. As more people than ever are seeking out aas because of the fitness craze that's taken hold in America its more important than ever to give sound advice and be mindful that after someone logs off this site they may actually be applying what they've just read. Something that could have lasting effects on their health. Not just how they will look at the beach in 12 weeks......here are a few of these topics and a little about my concerns on each.

CRUISING, CRUISE/ BLASTING

You will see this topic referred to by both the titles above. A brief description is between cycles instead of proper PCT and adequate time off a person will use a lower dose than what was used on cycle to "cruise" until the next cycle. The logic behind this is you keep your test level hi and lose no gains in between cycles so you will in theory grow more. This can cause numerous long and short term problems. You should be aware of them and prepared to deal with them if you are planning doing it. Under no circumstances should you attempt this until you are years into your aas use and have some advanced cycles to your credit. If you don't fall into that category then chances are you will gain MORE LONG-TERM by using PCT and recovery time between cycles because your body still has untapped potential that could be forever hindered by over use. The cruise/blast might keep you look good now but years from now should you still be dedicated to training you will have robbed your body of some things. The thought that you can just go TRT usually comes in with the cruise conversation and this is also my next topic

Trying to go on TRT for the wrong reasons
If you have been legitimately diagnosed with problems that lead you to TRT you think TRT sucks but your thankful for it. You went through some dark days most likely and finding TRT was a great thing. Its a hassle and the issues that lead you to get on it to start with could still come up but with the care of a Dr you can keep things normal. TRT isn't something you can just stop if you get tired of doing it or you lose your insurance and can't afford the expense out of pocket. Thinking you can just order UGL gear and give yourself injections from now on as sort of a self diagnosed, self administered TRT is just ignorant and dangerous. I fear there are a lot of guys that do this without any bloodwork or medical advice or supervision.

The Cycle with Two 19-Nor compounds Ran Together

There was a time when this topic was talked about as extremely dangerous. I won't say it has become accepted but its definitely more tolerated than it used to be. On boards and in the gym among peers. Also there are a lot of offerings from various labs for hi mg blends offering a two 19-nor mix. You never saw this in the past. I believe 19-nors should be used with extreme care when 1 is included in cycle. Using 2 at the same time I believe is beyond stupidity. Even if you just look at risk vs. Reward and what precautions needed to be taken intra-cycle and post cycle, why would you do it.

There are several other topics that are cause for concern but most are addressed regularly in forums and perhaps these I've listed above in your opinion are talked about and warned of sufficiently. I feel these are worth repeating and keeping the dialog fresh. More and more people are using aas as I said above. Also its much easier to obtain than in the past. People are using these forums (this site as well as others) as their introduction to all things aas. You can't stop them from acting dangerously but at least making sure they have both sides of the coin they know the pitfalls are real. There will always be those that take time to educate themselves and become successful and responsible aas users. Those are the ones we will be depending on to carry on the knowledge we try to provide about the need for patients and safety with aas. I hope this post helps someone make a better informed decision. One that has ramifications on there greatest asset. Their health.
