For fucks sake dude. No offense but at those stats you have a way to go before thinking about gear. If anything get your levels checked and if they're low go on TRT (either doctor or self prescribed) and train for a long while. I think if you're truly low T you'll feel worlds better at an upper range of average testosterone level. Once you blast highish levels of gear you will never train natty again though.

Third time. Still getting use to the rules here guys. I linked picks of myself but the automod hates them. PM me OP if you want to see a pick of me for credibility or check my post history.

My genes are horrible; bad bone structure, below average height, small wrists/feet/hand size, bad shoulder to hip ratio, and my genetic muscle limit is also low; I can't go over 170kg deadlift / 75kg bench / 120kg squat, even after months of trying to overload.

I would have to see you to argue that.

I want to give steroids a try, not because I want to put on mass, but also because I want to feel alive again. I was born with low T and the doctors here won't do anything about it because they're not low low, but below average.

I know exactly how you feel. They treat a number on a page, not symptoms. That's how you know you have a good endocrinologist, they treat symptoms, not just a number.

But before I do (and I might not even do it), I'm researching about it like crazy, therefore I'm giving this place a shot.

I'd like to know you guys' experience with steroids, how it makes you feel, any bad effects, etc. Anything at all will be useful.

There are side effects that you have to deal with and you will only know what ones you are going to get after you try the drugs. It's a gamble and an experiment. Some of the sides are nasty, cystic acne, limp disk, hair loss, permanent damage to your hart, blood pressure, blood thickness (can be fatal), and many more.

You need a way to run bloodwork to attempt to mitigate the sides and that's all it is, mitigation.

Steroids are like being bit by a vampire, once you take them you can never go back to being natty. If you are not a couple of years into the lifestyle there is a very high chance that steroids will end your lifting career. You will quit when you go off. Happens all the time.

They are performance enhancing drugs, not performance inducing drugs.

Some of the different compounds have dramatic mental side effects. Trenbalone is injecting pure narcissism for example.

The juice is just the icing on the cake, you have to be balls deep into the lifestyle to get the look.

The steroids sub wiki has a perfect n00b cycle outlined, follow that to the letter and ask questions in their daily threads AFTER you have read the wiki.

You can ask me anything if you want.

Holy fuck get the fuck out of this sub. I'm cringing at all these comments from people who only hear what the media tells them. Go to r / steroids and read the wiki. Don't fucking give your advice or opinion on steroids when you don't do them.

With your stats, you are better off taking a good, hard look at your diet and your current training program. You are obviously doing something wrong if these numbers are not increasing by training naturally.

I have personally done two cycles which barely did anything for me. My training, sleep, and diet were obviously shit. If these are not in order beforehand, you might as well drain your money down the toilet.

With regard to your low testosterone levels, try natural remedies instead, i.e. increase your consumption of healthy fats, eat vegetables and red meat, lose body fat, sleep more, masturbate less, do heavy compound lifts, eliminate or reduce stress, work out regularly, take supplements, avoid alcohol, etc.

I compete in a variety of strength sports and did so as a "natty" for a while. When I started going to the national level I started with gray area sarms, mostly for body recomp. Ostarine was by far the best one I tried. I also did s23 (probably closer to a prohormone) and got great strength gains from it. I did the prescribed PCT's for both.

Recently I got my levels checked and had very low T levels, I was surprised for how often I lift and am pretty consistent with my diet. I acknowledge my sleep is not the best due to my work schedule.

On TRT now with a good doctor. I haven't noticed much engergy wise, but am definitely getting more lean with my same diet and exercise

Your problem isn't your genetics. Try out Lyle Mcdonalds generic bulking routine. DO A DELOAD. Eat more food, be sure you are in a surplus and train hard. Every men, doesn't matter if good or bad genetics, is able to bench at least 100kg. The real limit for naturals is about 180kg. I am only 5`10 and I have very small wrists, wide hips and average at best shoulders. I am naturally light and I weight only about 69kg and I bench over 85kg. It has nothing to do with your genetics. A friend of mine is also rather light boned and he benched 100kg now at the age of 18. So there is no excuse and if you can't progress naturally you won't have much fun with steroids.

Like others have said, you get out of them what you put in. Personally, they’ve changed my life. When I was in the research phase of looking into them, I got my blood tested to see what my test levels were at. Tested at 230ng/dL which is low as fuck. On a “blast” right now and will drop down to a cruise dose when that ends in a few weeks. Get your diet on point, make sure you’re hitting your calorie/macro goals everyday, and grind your ass off in the gym and you’ll see amazing results.

It's not magic. Take that into consideration.

If you have low testosterone than you should start testosterone as soon as you can.

I had low testo due to a medical reason and starting testosteron has been one of the best decisions I have ever done.

However, I only advice you to do if you will be on it for the rest of your life. There is no point in doing a cycle or two. Just going to leave you worse than beforem

Took some roidz, turned into swolbroham Lincoln, freed all the nibbas, came off my cycle, "omg no wat have I doen", never touched them again.

Go ask the steroid sub. Your lifts are decent for a small guy. Unless you want to be on steroids your whole life, they won't help you be stronger than your genetic limit. Also what is your T levels?
