In all honesty we all began our pursuit of a stronger, better built body by a trial and error based system of training and nutritional experimentation to see what worked for us and what doesn't. Here is where this ties in with steroids bro, steroids in my humble opinion are best reserved for those individuals that have been throw all the process of elimination dieting and training and have already applied the what works aspects of both in thier daily lives. After a while this self aware individual stops making gains or hits a plateau if you will. There is where steroids should then and only then be considered. You take one cycle of steroids because you want to see what it will give you without seeing what proper training, dieting and sleep will get you, then you will probably gain 15 to 20lbs of which you will keep 0% of it. The roids will never make the athlete, only knowledge of what works for that person will. Steroids just help you past the sticking points and on to new levels. My first cycle was started after 5 years of hard training naturally. I am still learning what works and especially what doesn't after close to 9 years total training (5 naturally and close to 4 enhanced). My point is learn and perfect all the avenues you can naturally first and give yourself time to grow further and then make that educated descision. You will be that much better when it is said and done.
