Big myth in bodybuilding: the more gear you take, the better things go. It is not true. If you increase your steroids quickly, you're going to gain a shitload of weight. Almost all of it will be body water. Was on 100 mg per week of tren, which was not fun. Organs are like the floor of a party with gum, beer, and cigarette butts and people stepping on it. If you haven't used steroids yet, highly encourage you to never use them. Steroids have absolutely shortened my predictive lifespan. Is it really worth it?

Hey folks, Dr. Mike here for RP Strength. Taking three times less total steroids did to my body. In summer of 2024, did a show prep for competitive bodybuilding, getting back to it soon. Was not doing great: hurt back, psychology stuff, social support, genetics, tan, other people. Taking normal amount of gear for size and level of muscularity: peak total steroid amount per week of about 2,000 mg.

Combination of testosterone, primobolan (primo, similar to testosterone but fewer side effects, can take more for muscle gain), Anavar (oxandrolone, oral), and 100 mg/week tren (not fun for health or psychology, but not a lot of tren). Post-show DEXA: 233 lbs at 6.3% body fat, lean mass 218 lbs, 4 lbs visceral adipose tissue, bone density T-score 4.8 (higher is better, more dense bones).
