Cycle Sins

ad

Dumbest decisions you have made running cycles. A good example of how to not use steroids.

Not packing meals to take with me which lead to me going for 6-10 hours between meals on very busy days. Def hampered gains.

I am surprised you didn't pass out or go hypo not eating consistently on gear.

Not following through with bulking cycles when I was younger to truly establish a foundation. I was always afraid of my BF too high due to my fears of my previous teenage obesity.

Also, when I was 20 years old, I ordered Test e and unbeknownst, of the compound, received Tren e instead. Ran Tren e 1 shot a week, got shredded and was confused why I was getting leaner and not being able to have sex.

Unreasonable dosages increase without revising the training split.

Not using BP meds sooner. And bulking when I was already fat

anvil's picture

You were never fat, cmon.
Bp meds definitely is mine, but they haven't been this easy to get ever. I give credit to the movement of influencers who are preaching harm mitigation instead of tiktok / insta tren talk.

bigred250's picture

20% body fat ain’t exactly slim! Haha thanks for the kind words. Yeah me too. Some of the influencers who actually talk about harm mitigation are actual life savers. I never would have bought a blood pressure cuff without them

That probably applied to me also

My first cycle was pretty much wasted because I still kept to a natty bulking diet -_-.

I went clubbing/partying almost everyday. I was drinking and doing coke.

I think he was REALLY depressed. After blasting he said that the attention was cool but all the people he talked to were shallow and stupid. That they wouldn't even give him the time of day if he didn't look the way he did. There's a text interaction with this girl where he starts to get real and tells her how he has a heart condition and then immediately backpedals and goes "lol just kidding".

If only he actually knew how to use drugs properly, what a waste. I love that he was just a shitposting nerd in douchebag camouflage.

Lmfao you seen his pre pics? He looked like that streamer kid “Neon”

FartDracula's picture

A little bit yeah. All of those examples of people where "steroids ruined their aesthetic/handsomeness etc. It actually made him look like a person instead of an ipad kid

DeeMan's picture

I don't know that kid from a can of paint. No need to mention who he is. Hate hearing he passed though

FartDracula's picture

Nah I'm just gonna mention who he is. He was an internet troll/proto-fitness influencer who literally blasted roids nonstop without ever really cruising while also going to parties and doing drugs. He was a funny dude

DeeMan's picture

I mean I wonder do these dudes think they're the exception. As if they are so lucky or exempt

FartDracula's picture

I think they're just sad people honestly. They're so desperate to reach out and take hold of anything meaningful or fulfilling that they're willing to put their lives at stake. They never end up reaching that goal or at best attain a hollow version of it, then they die.

DeeMan's picture

Let me just say this and it's being honest @smurfdude1234567
@FartDracula even when I was that age yeah I did crazy things but I was never reckless at all. Of course I had fun and drank and did what my buddies did but I always knew that things could get out of hand real fast. Got a few highschool buddies today that are certified crackheads. Not trying to be funny either cause that's the situation. And one of them should of been playing professional ball, yet he lurkes the streets. Life decisions unfortunately

smurfdude1234567's picture

I think it’s the addiction/craving of attention & anabolics that they love more than anything else. These dudes didn’t even bat an eye or research the consequences in most cases it was go… go… go…

I won't say the member's name but I was just telling him that I had a workout buddy who acted that same way many years ago. I'll leave it at that. Thanks for giving me this kid's background.

The ole saying goes...live fast die young!

Yep this is the “Zyzz” I told you about when you were trying to think of Bostin that one time a while back if you recall. I categorize him in the same rich, Bostin, zyzz, etc. early influencer steroid 27 club type

DeeMan's picture

Oooo. Ok. So that's him. Hey man I don't be knowing these young YouTubers from a can of paint bought straight from Home Depot lol. I don't knock them making money. It's just with more money usually comes more problems that resulted from a wild lifestyle. I've seen this type of thing before. I'm not old at all but 27 is still young to me. Not even hitting their prime yet. So sad. Damn that Boston guy really kinda hurt me a little bit. He just seemed like that buddy next door. Wow. Yeah I mentioned that to you. Now it's still debated whether he was a member here.

Jedizzle's picture

How old do you think Bostin was when he first did aas. I’m sure his folks had something to with his way of thinking. When I first started messing with gear about ten years ago dudes where saying “ the more you use the more it works”.

DeeMan's picture

I don't know how old he was when he started. If I'm not mistaken was his mom was into fitness competitions? So you might be right on that.

When it comes to that more is better stuff I was always hard headed. I guess it just depends on the individuals body. I can't say this or that because we are different, but those damn side effects don't care how different we are. So I see he was a teenager then. Damn

Jedizzle's picture

There was a pic of him and his wiener circulating the net. He had a baby dick. I’m not an endocrinologist but I’m positive if you use druing puberty you’re fucking yourself up.

FartDracula's picture

Missed a day pinning (twice) because I was ripping dabs constantly and didn't realize it until I had a full on panic attack where I was clinging to my cat for dear life. I now almost never smoke weed or ingest THC of any kind because of this. Also randomly adding 50 mgs of Anavar a day to my first cycle.

TheIcon's picture

Nothing stupid yet. I try to keep it simple. But I see time and time again people NOT getting bloodwork done. Get it done before, during, and after. At the very least. Doesn't have to be a full panel every time but get the main numbers.

Things are way easier when you have blood numbers in front of you rather than people guessing what could be the cause

press1's picture

Didn't use Blood Pressure meds or Liver supps for years - made myself ill and caused training to be way harder than it needed to ever be.

Are you talking about over the counter BP meds? I was wondering what could be done for BP other than beet root. Or are you meaning something more like Clonidine?

press1's picture

Prescription meds mate like Losartan or Bisoprolol/Nevibolol. I tried the Cialis root and other natural routes but the proper medications work best for me. Telmisartan you can get from most of the sources now.

Spool's picture

I’ve been researching all day. I sent a pm to you. Been going through it.

anvil's picture

Loosing sleep absolutely raises blood pressure, its like this vicious cycle. You get headaches, which stresses you out , then you don't sleep well and all these things are symptoms and causes. 5mg nebivolol, 40mg telmisartan, will get it dropped for you, at least as a starting point. But you are describing exactly what would happen to me, like I knew it was coming, I'd take my bp would be 145/80. Mine is 125/68 now.

Spool's picture

Yup yup, that’s what I was just saying. It’s like a cyclical thing. It all affects each other. And you hit the nail on the head, I knew it was coming but I can’t tell why it happens exactly because I felt great otherwise.

anvil's picture

Same here but off gear my BP is normally 130/75 so I just keep the bp med protocol in year round. Feel 100% better because I was always stressing about the bp. Hope that it helps you, if you in us there's a place that can get you both quickly.

Spool's picture

Yes. That definitely helps. I plan to research and order a couple things tonight. That’s for sure. I just don’t understand this right now. It’s such an odd thing. I’ve taken a lot of information in the past couple months, I didn’t foresee this issue happening.

Spool's picture

Can you explain more about this. I don’t quite understand how that works. That is awesome though.

Edit: Are you saying because all the blood is in the member, it brings Bp down?

DeeMan's picture

Are you having BP issues?

Spool's picture

Yeah. On 3 separate days. 11/13,(Couple hours), 11/23(2days worth), 12/2(today). Felt great otherwise and the all of a sudddn it flips on me.

DeeMan's picture

Yeah man get that taken care of. I've never taken a BP med but like you I'm looking into it. I've taken beet root but that can only do so much. High Bp is a total destroyer but sometimes guys just tend to ignore it. Yeah so I'm with you on looking into something
