If I could go back in time I would of planned things better, do NOT become a junkie as in taking anything can get hands on. Dont start cycles until you have all the gear together, dont get anxious and add other compounds in half way throguh the cycles. Watch your diet, just dont be a half ass juicer is what I'm getting at. Always have a purpose....when your taking gear with no purpose, half ass training, eating whatever you want, that's where shit creeps up on you. Proper planning can make a difference, tons of cash on gear and I finally got big after two years nonstop I got my 18 inch arms....only to have to come off to start right back where I started at 200 soft. I look a good 5 years older than I am in the face as well. I was more of a hormone collector than a bodybuilder the past two years, I enjoye taking the drugs more than the training even though I got pretty big. Proof that getting big is all drugs hell my GF lifted weights harder than me. I'm cleaning out though, have a notebook I carry around with me everywhere, all my shots lined out to the T along with diet, training,etc as well as scheduled breaks. Just try to live like a bodybuilder and you will be ok, boozing on Friday nights, staying out late getting crappy sleep, stopping by Mcdonalds three times a week cause you dont pack your meals,not drinking enough water, that's when your blood work gets fucked. Although it will work for a while most will fall with time
