Hate is such a strong word… What a prick.

How do you insult somebody and say something stupid at the same time? Your basically saying he recovers from his workouts faster, gets bigger then what get weaker?..Obviously the steriods made him stronger than if he did not use them, therefore it made him stronger. But wait since I don’t know my ass from my face, I could be wrong I guess steriods does make you weak.

Steroids do not make you stronger. They allow you to recover faster, allowing you to grow faster. (That was primarily for airtruth and that beast dude… not the regulars that know their ass from their face.)

The implication I am getting from several people is that once you stop, if you keep lifting you can keep your size and/or strength. If this is the case what is the point of the Natural Bodybuilding competitions where they have rules like you must not have used in the last 5 years.

Couldn’t I get as big as possible from 20 - 25 then go natural at 30?

Maybe. But you are being single-minded about what steroids can do.

I’m not flaming - just being honest here.

Some compounds dry you out. Some compounds add vascularity. Not all AAS is about strength and mass.

Look ant the nats - then look at the IFBB. There is a marked difference in how each are finished for a show.

I’m sure this was funny at the time, but it doesn’t seem like the right thing to do. Not too cool.

It’s still funny, and I would do it again tonight of some fat drunk kid was passed out sitting straight up next to my pool table.

Since when do I give a shit about “cool”?[/quote]

Sounds pretty cool and funny to me.

Any fuktard that gets so drunk in public that another person can put dots on him with a que stick without stirring a response totally deserves it.

In my opinion, what would not have been cool is if Rainjack called the cops and had the guy jailed for DIP. Now that would not have been cool.

I was reading along, wondering why someone who went from 135 to 173 didn’t have his head screwed on straighter about the ins and outs of intelligent gaining, and then this. I’m surprised no one else was flabbergasted by it.

My working theory is that this amazing 38 pound gain happened from the ages of 17 to 19, i.e. through living normally and going from high school nerd to college dork…but wouldn’t all those evil endogenous pubescent hormones be as bad for him as cigarettes?[/quote]

Completely wrong, 20 to 24. Turns out you don’t know everything. Guess what? I all ready know 38 lbs in 4 years isn’t fast, don’t bother pointing out the obvious again.

Anyway, just when you thought he was getting it, he lets us juice apologists (haven’t done any yet, sorry) know that he can allegedly do to a two inch concrete slab what we all thought of doing to his xiphoid process. I wonder if the UFC stud even knows where that is.[/quote]

Nice thinly vialed threat, the internet make being a tough guy very easy. I said I don’t care that I don’t weigh much, and that I work hard. Guess that part you missed.

It wouldn’t be hard to prove it if I actually had a video camera. I of course do not, nor do I wish to show it in real life from anyone who wants to break part of my rib cage.

At times I do get caught up in self- righteousness to the point of being accused of taking the fun out of life. No harm done. I stand corrected.
