This is the attitude I wish more competitors had, and it’s the right one to have… use what is nessecary, not more because you can
The yolotard (which to me this phrase means short sighted, in it for the now and nothing else matters etc) rhetoric specifically many younger competitors acquire from either
A- viewing extensive PED use from competitor and thinking “I need that if that’s what they’re doing”
B- trying various compounds, not experiencing extreme acute sides so continually increasing dosage until they need like 5 grams per week just to look decent and/or progress decently as their AR become SOooo downregulated
This is why we have so many younger competitors dropping in their 20s 30s, 40s etc
This is already a dangerous game, if you aren’t already already looking at serious competitive prospects (say after already having competed a few times) or perhaps haven’t even competed yet) there’s no fucking need to be on the equivalent of 2 g+ test/wk… it’s just irresponsible, reckless and will induce a vastly premature death. On 5g test equiv first comp, what’s you’re 10th Comp gonna look like lol
This doesn’t just pertain to anabolics, other supplementary compounds (insulin, beta 2 agonists etc.)
If you’re cutting for a show and start at 19%bf… you instantly pump in high doses of clen, T3, DNP, stims etc… not only is this dangerous, but where will you be when you reach 7%? What will you be using… the body will re attain homeostasis, metabolic state will re-shift… introduce things gradually, it’s a marathon, not a race
I recall this 18-19 y/o kid on here using like 250mgs of anadrol daily, 50ius of slin daily… his rhetoric was “but I want to compete”… like Jesus fucking Christ my dude
