Well like Greg Doucette said; “He has great genetics for taking absurd amounts and not dying” lol
If you don’t mind me asking… how did you feel?
Appetite, mood, sleep patterns etc
Anecdotally (and entirely unrelated to hepatotoxicity)… I can’t take dbol. I don’t cycle, though I’m not opposed to minor experimentation (say 10-20mg an oral lasting 7-14 days) because I do let curiosity get the best of me at times…
Dbol made me irritable, gave me insomnia, made me all around feel like shit, acid reflux… acne (similar to acne I get on testosterone)… this was 20mg daily… on 200mg daily I’d be one giant pimple… facial features indistinguishable, just one GIANT zit
Some people are blessed I guess, I did 100 Anadrol a couple of times, gives me massive headaches, pressure in my head, ZERO appetite, full after 2 bites, high temperature and generally feeling like shit, i feel like I dont have energy go to the gym anymore either.
It becomes more of a hassle to go to the gym instead, 50 is all I can take with no side effects.
I don’t believe people can take 200/300MG like what the actual hell, are their tabs severely underdosed or something, either that or their bodies are buildt like tanks.
Try taking some mactropin or thai anadrol, I doubt they can go to 200and up.
I’ve never taken anadrol. I don’t see why I would if I don’t like dbol… also I’m not comfortable with the dosages one needs to use with anadrol in order to acquire results… I don’t want to be dabbling in 50/100mg daily territory… I’m not comfortable with that
appetite becomes a struggle at higher doses for me. I was also overtrained and exhausted all the time. But, I was strong, I looked good, and I performed well.
As for the above posts… I have no idea why a guy like Greg Doucette, or any supplement salesman, would be invested in telling people the truth on this matter in a youtube video. He is invested in his personality, his image, and the way that translates to making money off supplement sales. You can pretty much always assume that if a youtube personality has a supplement vendor linked below their video, they are going to undersell steroid use. It just makes sense, right? This dude is trying to sell supplements, he’s trying to acquire new clients to coach, to sell programs to, etc. None of these these align with him saying ‘ya bodybuilders use 10 grams of gear in contest prep.’
I used to believe what you believe @cguy until I became an elite athlete, and got behind the curtain, and was personally told about what people are and aren’t taking. These guys aren’t telling the public this stuff. It just is what it is.
I’m inclined to believe you in that elite athletes tend to use very high dosages.
There is the fallacy that the golden era guys were “careful”… Pete Gyrmkowski admits to taking (whether I believe him or not is a different story) 10,000mg daily coming up to contest prep. Mike Mentzer supposedly took 2g deca + orals + amphetamines
Do I believe they used less as a generalisation? Perhaps, but I don’t believe they were responsible by any means
their bodies ARE built like tanks, and they can tolerate drugs in a way that you cannot. Genetic differences are HUGE. You’re relying too much on your own experiences. I can tell you that I could handle anadrol at 200mg for a few weeks, and probably not experience much in the way of side effects.
Well stay away then from Anadrol man, recently I was on Dbol again after a long time for kickstart, I was on 40MG a day, felt fine, no sides, felt pretty good actually.
I switched to Anadrol since I had used it several times before and wanted less bloat, I only took 1 tab 50MG, few hours later heavy breathing, high temperature, jittery hands, could even eat my meal, restless etc.
I appreciate the concern, that’s you’re anecdotal experience. What I perceive from the same drug could differ vastly
I’m staying away from anadrol because I simply don’t want to try it. What benefit could I possibly reap from using it… temporary gains in muscular mass don’t really cut it for me. As in… putting on 20 lbs of water/glycogen etc, then losing 15
Furthermore I just don’t think I can justify the risk, not until I’ve got more experience dieting/training under my belt (preferably at least 1.5-2 years more). Anadrol itself isn’t particularly risky, the dosages one takes to elict results are though (100mg daily is the equiv to 700mg base hormone weekly, I’d have to take a gram of test weekly to be taking 700mg base hormone weekly)… I’d never take a gram of testosterone weekly, thus why would I take 100mg anadrol daily
it’s a flawed logic, but that’s the way I think about it
I know there is a percentage of people who can take it, however would still like to see Lab result on the gear to believe it lol.
Not even taking actual drugs makes my body temperature and heart go as hard as on 100mg anadrol.
Also I’ve had Adrol from ug’s that I took 100MG of without sides, but the one I have now only 50mg makes me feel like im on Tren.
So I really doubt the potency of people’s anadrol really
You’ve taken both MDMA and cocaine (on separate occasions I’d assume), I highly doubt 100mg anadrol raises you’re RHR higher than that. You might not be aware of it at the time though
Not judging, I’m just thinking if I look at scientific literature, cocaine is far more liable to produce a pronounced sense of tachycardia, can induce adrenergic storm etc
I know it raises it a lot lol, of course it is masked by the effect of euphoria so you don’t pay attention to it, however it is really not as bad to me as a high dose of drol, I would not feel out of breath on it or catching breath.
However I’m pretty sure that if I feel like I’m gonna die on 100+mg of anadrol and im breathing heavily, feel like my eyes are gonna pop that it is not that much less whats going on inside.
Also regarding to “studies” im talking moderate bit here, not insane druggie amounts.
Yeah cocain dude, thats like the top most damaging, I never even do that, tried it sure, but don’t use it.
Look of course real drugs is more dangerous, I was just making a point hehe, I’m pretty sure people can die on 200/300MG anadrol, if they don’t they’re lucky just like meth addicts that inject meth on a daily basis without dying.
Some people can handle it, most can’t
I am lost as to why you need to phrase things this way. Has no one ever described a benefit of Anadrol that intrigued you? Thousands of pro bodybuilder/lifters have found great use of it over the decades. I get that you’re well versed in steroid medical literature, but instead of just assuming you know exactly how it will affect you, and that everyone who takes it is retarded, just try it and then report back. Or don’t. But if you don’t try it, it’s not because you already know what will happen to you personally if you take it. You don’t. Just saying.
I’m not stating that everyone who takes it is retarded. You’ve misinterpreted my post
I’ve stated I don’t think there is anything that me… as an individual would reap from taking anadrol. I don’t think I’d feel good on it (psychologically, it’d irritate me that I’m taking 50mg daily)… whether the drug would actually make me feel bad is unknown
aside from the fact that I’m anaemic and in combination with adequate iron supplementation it’d probably make me… not anaemic rather quickly
Ok, but don’t you claim to want to be a pro-bb? You’ll be using Anadrol at some point, then. Just like the rest of them.
I wanted to be a pro bodybuilder, however given my medical ailments it doesn’t appear as if that would be possible ![]()
Actually I’m certain it wouldn’t be possible, so I’ve dropped the notion of it being a possibility
I apologise if you took offence to my post. I harbour no judgement to those who use anadrol, or any drug for that matter (unless they’re one of those 22 y/o kids using 700mg tren first cycle etc)
But my hypothetical still stands. You were never going to be that first guy who always takes the perfect dose of the perfect steroid at the perfect times. In this game, its clear, one has to roll the dice a bit and think outside of the box. If that means trying a few Anadrol during the offseason to get and idea of how it will affect you so that you can use it later on, then that’s how it is. Health be damned. None of this shit is healthy.
Why would you wanna be a pro bodybuilder man, first of all it’s super unhealthy, and the top is not even reachable to where you earn money from it.
It costs A LOT and barely pays you off unless your in the top 10% of elite, or are able to get an online following.
Why not try men’s physique, or modeling.
For that you only have to be like 90 or so KGS lean, no need for insane cycles and risking health, plus the ladies prefer that type of look.
Modeling earns way more money than bodybuilding, unless you have a sponsorship in bodybuilding, but from sole projects and events modeling pays more.
For bodybuilding you have to work hard and for months, spend a lot of cash on gear, for 1 show, and then you only earn some cash prize if you are top something callouts, money is meager too, only good at big name shows.
For modeling, 1 photoshoot or magazine with your shirt off you earn hundreds to thousands of dollars for 1 day of work, and sometimes keep getting paid royalties.
A fashion show like underwear or beach wear can give earn you also hundreds of dollars for less than 30 minutes of walking, for big brands thousands of dollars, paid hotels, flying around countries you name it.
And trust me you get more pussy if you’re on a magazine cover or your photos on the wall in a clothing store, than if you weigh 260 pounds, are bald, and can barely breathe normally.
I’m 5’5
The reason is stupid… but I’ll explain in a short summary. I’ve always been very short, I found the one thing I could control/manipulate to my desire was my size, and it wasn’t just this, as if my wanting to be big was merely based off insecurity it’d hint at a facet of mental illeness
I’ve always enjoyed exercise extensively, I was doing calisthenics at around age 7, got under a bench for the first time prior to the age of nine etc… (my medical history is long, much of my hard work was abolished after age 14 due to chronic pain). So as a child I make my father acquire tapes from bodybuilding and strongman shows, I’d watch these men in awe and think “When I grow up I’m going to be one of them”… After I was put on TRT I managed to start weightlifting seriously again, even then there have been injuries/hurdles. I’m currently sick with the flu, losing gains rapidly as is be expected
It was never particularly about getting girls, it was about what I idolised… as I grew older and realised what I’d have to do + chronic pain and whatnot, the more I realised such a lifestyle wasn’t feasible
