I agree.  You'd be much more interesting if you started doing gay for pay.  There's this one dude in Kitty Hawk...

7 degrees in Thunder Bay...
I feel for you. It's 32 here in Portugal, sea water 21 (Atlantic coast, not mediterranean), zero wind... God bless global warming!

Joe is a smart individual, he doesn't post anything that might be indicated a as very bad in case he was doxxed. He is also not very big so he doesn't need to do very high doses.

I was initially taken aback my joswift's post where he said that 200mg is acceptable to make progress in bodybuilding. It is message board lore that a barebones steroid cycle is 500mg Testosterone at a minimum. But Lyle McDonald said 500mg is when training techniques begin not to matter because you are going to grow on that amount.

When I later had him clarify his post, he just said - follow a good diet. The 500mg figure is going to work for people following your sort of normal North American [or UK] bad diet.

If the average man produces between 50-150mg of Testosterone per week, 200mg would be double that of many men. So...yeah, sure, you can make progress.

I don't think most would look like joswift...that's where decades of training + good genetics come in. Obviously, he will have that encoded in his DNA by now.

My experience from taking Anadrol last summer was: it didn't take much. Plus, I didn't want some huge change anyway. I guess it depends on what sort of transformation you want to make.

PS - I took creatine last month, and put on 10-lb, Van. I hope 4-lb was muscle, like you said I could gain. Do you think it would be ok to run it for another month so son? I don't want to lose that 10-lb until my strength challenge with B. Hank is over on January 1st, lol.

Yes!
I turned me heat on here two days ago.

I'm getting a new high efficiency heater, and from the results of someone I know, it will reduce my heating bill by 60-80%. I need my savings to last me 50 years [possibly/hopefully], and so I still do little things like turn my heat off.

I would probably still turn my heat down to 12°C during the winters [when it gets to -40°C / -40°F about 2 in every 3 winters here!] because I find it helps me sleep longer. That + a 15-lb blanket I have can put me out for 10-12 hours some nights.

How are winters in Portugal? Do you ever get to -40 over there? Lol.  ;D

Creatine is safe to run year round... Ive been taking it for 30 years...
