Title: Do bad bbing genetics also mean bad gear response genetics?
Post by: Deicide on August 25, 2011, 03:36:08 PM
I have been curious about this for a while. If said person has terrible genetics for building muscle mass, does that imply terrible genetics for responding to steroids? and if so, juice would just be like a pick-me-up for someone like that, right? Is it even worth it to bother trying?

Better genetics is always going to be better than not. Look at Ronnie Coleman, he has fantastic genetics for mass even without gear.

The idea of gear is simply to take whatever you have and to simply make it better. If you have poor genetics this means you'll still have poor genetics but you'll be able to take whatever it is you do have and make it better. Yes, an average to even below average genetic guy could make some big changes but it'll probably take more gear and more risk as compared to the guy who is naturally genetically blessed. It's an unfortunate reality but that's life.

I completely agree with this. Although judging by how my parents looked, I don't have the genetics for bodybuilding. I have been able to improve on what I inherited from them through weight training and a few cautious cycles of D-bol when I was in my late teens and twenties. Note: "cautious" means that I took D-bol as prescribed by my doctor. Apparently, it was just enough to get me over my twink genetics, thank god! Now it is many, many years later and I have been on TRT for the past three years. This seems to be helping me to avoid some of the problems of aging. Like in the past, I am doing this under a doctor's care.

Had I wanted to become a pro bodybuilder, I would have not only have had to have been much more dedicated to this sport (?) I would probably have had to take shit-load of gear along the way. Fortunately, my goals were less extreme than that. I'm too much of a realist to have taken those kinds risks with my health just to get freaky huge and win some cheap trophy.
