Would like to hear some personal experiences of what it felt like coming off all together. I know the longer you were on the harder it must've been so please let us know how long you were on for.
-
Not hard at all man.
Just give it some time and dont act like you are addicted to cocaine.
Its only juice and muscle can and will be regained within 2 months if and when you decide to go back on.
Life is much more then juicing and muscles. Relax and enjoy!
Yeah dude that's what I'm thinking. :D
Its just that I was on for close to 6 months on my first cycle so I would like to hear what I may experience in the coming weeks. I know we're all different and there's other factors to take into account like length of cycle, specific steroids used, age, genetics, mind state, etc of the user that will determine what one will go through when coming off.
I think we know all those things would determine the severity of the off period but I think its good to have stuff like this up on the boards since there's a lot of people just searching around looking for info. I remember reading the steroid boards for years before pinning myself..lol.

Honestly!!
Well sex drive goes to nothing, even with a decent PCT it will never be like when you were on.
Strength goes down, so the weight you can use, makes it hard mentally.
Longer recovery times!!
Personally my work suffers, as i feel less productive.
You obviously drop weight, which is more than likely water weight. But that sudden decrease can cause loss of confidence.
The sad fact is, im a better all round person when im on! I have more energy, more confidence, my family life improves.
This is just me personally.

I already feel very lethargic at times during the day. Tbh, if I wasn't worried about my hair I would stay on forever cause of all the things you mentioned. I still have a full head of hair but there's some baldies in my family in I don't wanna risk it.

Took a year off after being on the for 3 years straight, felt OK while I was off but didn't even touch a weight couldn't get motivated come hell or high waters, it's been a year now and have been dosing mild until now, going back to the extreme for now on. The worst part was coming back and doing 2 plates for only 7 reps when I have benched 5plates per side before, that was a bitter pill for me to swallow. I may never come off again, I feel I am unhealthy, unmotivated and weak when I am off, just being honest.

Appreciate the honesty.
I just came off and already got a cold even though its summer time. I went into the supermarket sweaty after a bit of cardio and the next morning I already had a runny nose. Had done it plenty of times while on and never got sick so I can understand why someone would wanna stay on indefinitely.

Well ive recently made the decision to stay on now. Ive spent 8 years doing time off = time on. Im 35, and recently went to have my bloods checked. I had them checked after doing a pct and making sure my system was clean. Everything came back normal. In fact the dr was very susprised about how healthy i was. I never told him that i was any type of gear. However he did ask due to the size of me which i denied.
Maybe ive been lucky and staying on could cause a problem. But the life i lead, when im on. lifting big, looking big, feeling confident, sex when ever i want it. From now on its blast for 12 weeks, cruise for 12 weeks. and all over again.
Of course i will continue to get my bloods checked, and use every anti side effect drug and supplement i can get my hands on.
I eat clean, cardio everyday, you name it. This is the life ive chosen and I couldnt be happier.
P.s im also worried about my hair, it is thinning, but im 35, how do i know if thats due to the gear. Thanks to this board, im now using every treament i can get my hands on. and its working. so far.

Funny when a doctor is shocked of someone's good health...lol.
They say its usually when we start getting older that our bodies are less tolerant to abuse. Maybe this is when gh (obviously diet and cardio as well) becomes more and more important. Stay Healthy and good luck with the hair!

About 8 months off right now.
Fuck the needle, I dont need this shit.
I feel great.
No doubt im smaller, "weaker"...softer. I see other guys around me comming out of mowhere looking jacked, im jealous I admit it...BUT I know what it takes to get there, been there...and I laugh because I know those guys have no base.
But I feel healthier and I dont carry that "weight" of the needle, you know...when to pin..when is my next orde comming what to use next etc etc...

So do you still live the same life wrt to training and diet?
-
Yes, I train the same.. maybe less volume and eat the same.. except from less meals or protein..

That's cool...I'm hoping on doing the same only if I can maintain my motivation for training.
-
i took 2 n a half year off when i got sick of competing, the worst part is loosing your condition as has been said above, even eating perfectly and doing your cardio you still carry fat where you dont want it, you never have that semi pump out of the gym either
that being said, im thinking of comming off for a good beak again,, was on for 5 month, got shredded for a hol towards the end of it.... since i came back i just cant be arsed to shoot up, im curious to see how long i can keep looking good and holding my weight,, been 3 weeks so far so im all positive now, might be rummaging through my drug draw in a few month tho

Imagine that you have billions of dollars and you are given any woman that you want anytime, then one day you just wake up and it's all gone and you are now a kidnapped african forced to be a soldier in Uganda.
That's what it feels like coming off.

nah,,,, its not the best, but its not so bad... i did 5 yr without before i took anything, and as has been said many times on here, built a solid base... does make a big difference coming on and off
you also have to be realistic on how you can look and how you can train, your not going to be big and tight no matter what you do... you can be big or you can be tight...or you can be somwhere in-between ( which is what i aim for )
when it comes to training youl feel your joints much more and generally ache most of the time in and out of the gym, but you just have to plod on and do what you can
-
not sure you should even be on. I saw you pics in another thread and at best, you got a swimmers build. This after being on for 6 months? Geez man...

Really.....a swimmer's build at best?
Not sure if you're serious.
I had been taking really low doses with a few weeks off here and there...it wasn't 6 months of gh15 doses.
In the pic below that I took last friday I was back on for 2 weeks taking 20 mgs of dbol a day. I weigh 195 at 5'9 in that pic.... I don't know any swimmers like that.
I shouldn't even be on... whatever bitch!

Thats a very good physique man! Dont listen to haters!
As for the coming off etc, i have only ever done a few 12 weekers so my opinion probably isnt as valid as someone whos been on for months or years. But for me i dont ever lose motivation to train, thats one thing i dont understand that people can feel that they dont want to hit a gym! Its a lifelong thing for me, so it really doesnt matter wether im cycling or not!
The physical differences, well thats a different story! the pump is the biggest difference for me, my arms are busting out my T shirts everyday when im on, and not quite as much off lol Condition goes also and i find myself not being able to get away with my huge meals as much lol

Thanks man, I expect abuse and welcome it on the G&O board. I think over on this side we all expect little more respect and help from one another cause usually that's what you get. Nothing wrong with criticism as long as its constructive...not like what that goof ritch does.
And wrt the training I agree with what you've said about it being a lifelong thing. I would go nuts without having that as a part of my life...which is kind of why I started taking gear this year to begin with. Its hard to stay motivated when all you can do is go up and down in bf after training naturally for years.

Good physique

just being honest, post your pic on any forum where you don't your guys backing you. I dare you. You will get real feedback. I don't care about your stats, you got a newb body and you're talk about being on gear. Kinda sad, but hey, keep on living with your head in the sand.
Not hating, giving you a good dose of reality.

"My guys" ...
I don't know what that's supposed to mean you goof... lmao
And I do have a "newb" body cause that's exactly what I am. Nowhere have I claimed to be something I'm not and only posted that pic in reply to your post because I am larger than a swimmer....that much I will say. I didn't post it here for any other reason than that and I'm not gonna go and post it elsewhere just to please you.
Bud...you're a goof lol just shut up already.
-
you admit you're a newb, yet you used steroids. Proof right there what an absolute idiot you are.
So no... Why don't you just shut up already as the more you talk the dumber you sound.
-

I'm a newb when it comes to steroids and I'm just getting started so I will only improve :)
And keep talking shit we'll see who gets the last laugh ya goof lol
-
no you fool, you build is newb like, accept that. And as I said, post your pics on a new forum and tell them you take steroids, prepare to be rediculed dipshit.
Of course you won't as you're just another delusional idiot who juices. Pathetic.
-
so what makes you so good then, everyone has to start somwhere.... the lads got a nice build, why dont you fuck off to the g&o with this shit, it doesn't belong on here

glad you asked! You see... I started gear after I no longer had the body of a boy... I was on par with many who used and when I did go on, the impact was big.
Using gear, to after still not look impressive=fail. There is no defending that. So how about you just shut your fucking dumb ass mouth as you have no idea what you're talking about just like that fool Borracho.
thanks.
Next?
-
And what really is the most sad/pathetic part is Borracho was on for 6 months as a first cycle. In 6 months of being on, you should be a beast! Not look like a soccer player/swimmer. Again, there is no defending this.
Generation fail at it's "best"...

Just remember 6 months is 24 weeks and most people would not consider 7 weeks of anavar at 40 mgs or another 7 weeks of dbol at 40mgs a cycle...you goof lol.... That's the kind of doses I was playing with during this go at it.
I'm done polluting this board with this childish bullshit.
pm sent.

Got your pm you bitch ass. Cu at circus afterhours Saturday night, little man...

you sound like you're getting off on this. But hey, I told you where I will be Saturday, you don't show, you're just a big ass pussy.

don't know why you can't keep this to pms
very unethical what you're doing here
-
just shut your fucking mouth and show up at circus saturday. yes, circus, the afterhour located on st catherine's and st timothay. I never leave before the place closes, so I should not be very hard the spot. I'm the guy with the body you wish you had, little boy.

So you're not showing up Saturday, just as I thought. And no more pm's I want everyone to witness what a coward you are in the forum here, thanks!

I hope all this stuff you've just written here doesn't get deleted just so everyone here can see what kind of person we're dealing with. I don't know why you're getting all worked up my friend....relax! ;D
-
Me getting worked up? Trust me, not even close, and no... This is not some tough guy act, there will be no acts of violence either... But I see you pm'd me again, I'm not reading it. I told you... Anything you have to tell me, do so here. And why do I have a a feeling I will never cross you? you put this off until 3 weeks. By then you know something will come up or some bullshit. When stuff like this comes up on boards nothing ever happens.
thanks.
I see you sent me another pm while I'm typing this, not looking either...
-
I made a mistake, the pm I thought was you, was not you... See, I'm reasonable, I make a mistake and admit it... Not out to get you... This whole thing was started by you not being able to take real life feedback. Yes it sounds insulting, but I feel it's important to be honest. I'm most known for that aspect which many have a hard time hearing at times.
-
Stop the nonsense.
Keep it in PM's.
You guys are both good people, but this isn't the board for this.

No showdown.
But I am gonna be in Montreal later on this month and I simply asked ritch where he trained at cause I would love to see what he looks like in person and possibly get some workout tips. I wouldn't be replying to your post but I think its important that everyone reading this knows that I didn't threaten him.

Bro why are you after this guy, he just posted a pic, everyone starts somewhere, he looks better then a handful of getbiggers. If you look better, remember at one point you where there too, not taking sides, don't really know either of you but seems you're treating him a little harsh, again no beef with you, just giving my 2 cents.

The bottom line is... When I see someone who's done steroids, I expect to see something more impressive. Another person who used first and asked questions later. 6 months of orals... Real smart shit. How can you be on a forum for so long and pull off something so dumb? There is no excuse or defending this. So no, I'm not being harsh at all, just giving a good dose of reality, something none of you were able to do. My 2 cents....

There's female fitness competitors who probably take the same amount if not more than what I took during most of that period. Plus, I wasn't even on 6 months straight of orals and there was probably a month in those 24 weeks where I took nothing at all. I'm shaking my head over here thinking why I even feel the need to explain myself to you.
A lot of people take steroids and not everyone has the same goals...
Keep in touch.
