Very true. I started at 110 lbs at 5ft7 when i was 14, to see how big and strong i became over time most wouldnt believe. But jve never been stronger than the average gym rat. A year ago i benched 315 for 3 first time in my life. Tore my right labrum days after and just getting back to lifting again. Getbigs strongest i will never be, but a far cry from what i was. And tbh ive run anadrol test tren gh and literally did not get any stronger. Maybe it was all water weight afterall. Makes one wonder why we make such a big deal anyway?
That's the holy trifecta of steroids IMO, test, tren and Anadrol, I don't think there's a stronger 3-drug combo. Anadrol was always best for strength for me, love it. Strangely tren never made me stronger than other weaker anabolics. It is strange that you felt you didn't get stronger. Even just water makes me a lot stronger, which is why my deadlift numbers suddenly jumped up, after decades of lifting, from MK-677.
I benched 350lbs as a teen before steroids. Took Dianabol for several months and did 4 plates on the incline for a double. It was wild and I was hooked. Got a lot stronger for a couple more years and tore both pecs, young and stupid, haveen't really benched since. Still really miss it.
