My 17 yr old brothers classmate looks like a 30 year old body builder and nobody bats an eye at school. Coach: let em use the roids! We need em for the future!
Bro the top gymfluencer chris bumstead literally has late stage kidney disease and is trying to claim its from a disease that isn't fully understood. Just ignore the fact his brother in law was an ifbb pro who started the guy on gear as a teenager.
@@bbyjohn11 throwing up after every meal is only good if you just want to look like a weird skeleton creature. Since you won't be getting the nutrients you need to keep/build muscle you'll just look like you are dying.....so people don't often tend to do it outside of people with severe disorders that actually want to look like they are dying. People usually don't think about longevity until they are middle aged. When you are young it's about being attractive.
@@taylorhillard4868Steroid use pushes the body to unnatural limits and physique and in short time causes noticeable aesthetic damage. I'm not sure what it "works well" to do. There can only be ONE winner of competitions and that's the only circumstance that steroids would help give any potential edge. Otherwise it's horrible and incredibly damaging to use steroids.
Gynecomastia isnt "fat" underneath the nipple. It's actual breast glandular tissue, the same as women have. The reason it gets worse on steroids is the same reason some men get it during puberty. Testosterone aromatizes (turns into) estrogen during the metabolizing process, and that hormone interacts with the glandular tissue under the nipple, causing growth.
yea everything he said in this video is wrong. hes spreading the lifting blackpill and shitting on naturals while also claiming to be noble by denouncing steroids.
The main issue is that people no longer know what a true natty is capable of anymore. For reference look at bodybuilders pre-steroids(anything before 1935) and see what the human body is capable of without roids. Especially now with everybody being more open with their steroid use but not warning about the risks thus glorifying it and a massive global insecurity plague especially from those taking steroids they have to try and justify it.
Well idk how I feel about this, even if they are indirectly "glorifying it" by being open about using it - I think it might still be better that they are open about it. Obviously anyone claiming that it's "not harmful" isn't good for anyone, but at the same time I think people should feel comfortable being open about using steroids if they are so that people won't be misled into thinking they can attain the same physique without steroids. I wish people would just get in to fitness to make themselves personally healthier, I seriously don't understand the idea that unless you look as jacked as possible it's not worth even trying, or unless there's a short cut it's a waste of time. It's the absolute worst mindset you can have when it comes to fitness, It's literally only men who care about the difference in appearance when they are on or off steroids, it's not like it's to impress anyone else but themselves - yet most probably delude themself in to thinking that it is. Sad that people will ruin their lives over looking and achieving a psychique 20% faster.
Totally agree with first paragraph. Not trying to brag here but I'm 240 lbs at 15% bf and ive had so many people say I'm on roids. It kinda ruins it for me. People have no idea what's possible without roids
It’s not a resurgence. The craze has been on the rise since last 10-12 years. Only now we have reached the “oh he is open about his gear use, he is such an inspiration” phase.
As someone with a natural gyno, I seriously don't understand why anyone would want to choose to have that seeing the insecurities I went through growing up.
💀ever heard of Ronnie coleman, it’s always been a thing it’s just more prevalent even for ppl not competing because of the insecurities spawned by social media
Can't really blame them, they are probably from terrible living situations. It can only get worse as the global economy collapses. Reminiscent of the only fans epidemic.
I used to be big into lifting for years and years. Near every single day from 14 to 21 I lifted, minimum 4 days per week and max 6. Naturally I got to probably the peak of what I’m capable of, about 6’2” 200lbs around 8% body fat. Standing next to my friend and gym partner who’d been taking steroids for 3 years, I looked like absolute garbage.
I feel yah, Iv been training hard now for over 10 years. 6’2 230. The gym I go to is loaded with juice heads of all ages , many in their teens are putting up 405 + on bench . It’s very discouraging.
What helped me get in shape was just high protein meals and never overeating with a regular exercise routine, the products most of the internet promotes is just a bunch of nonsense
Rn you have male influencers telling their followers to “get in the gym, get your money up, cut all women off when your rich then women will come to you” etc , and then you got women influencers telling their audience to “manipulate men’s emotions, use their mental health against them to strip them of everything they got” social media is making toxic men and women that are awfully perfect for each other
At least the male message you described is just true and is the way, it doesn't hurt anyone at all. It isn't toxic to get your shit together and stay away from women until you're ready.
I don’t think the male message is toxic at all it has no manipulation and is a way of saying good things come to those who wait and set your life up. Whilst girls withhold and manipulate lonely people so they can steal another man’s hard work.
Saw a 16 year old on insta that glorified usage, and everyone in the comments supported it. Why do we live in a world where a 16 year old kid gets hyped up for taking drugs.
I work out at a local gym that shares with the high school, we get many middle school and high school aged kids in there and I overhear them talking about the SARMS they are on very frequently, a lot of them. It's super disheartening to hear.
As someone who’s goal is to have every muscle as big and as strong as possible naturally, I can say that I dislike the “fitness industry”. Mainly because a large majority of them are on roids so that eliminates the fitness aspect by default. I have my goal set because I’m genuinely curious how large and strong I could get at my genetic limit. I will never touch roids though, all the health detriments for extra muscle is a terrible trade off. I also love lifting so I’m always going to keep pushing more weight and get bigger by default as I progress as long as I eat well.
Just don't start to hit too high of a volume. I'm a long time natty lifter and I hit long plateaus thinking my genetic limit was trash. Turned out, I was lifting with guys juicing and working out just as hard or harder, but my body couldn't recover like theirs. I lowered the volume and the plateau ended pretty quick
@@Ryan-wx1biI already know that actually, HIT bodybuilding is best for naturals. If any lifter is reading this and wants more muscle or wants to know how muscle building actually works to be able to build more muscle and strength while improving their overall health, check out Jay Vincent, Dr. Doug Mcguff, and Drew Baye. Best science based channels regarding fitness on CZcams. You can get in a 30 minute or even 15 minute workout twice a week or even once a week (not joking) and maximize your gains in as little as 1 or 2 sets taken to failure for a muscle.
You can definitely get jacked without roids, what's disgusting to me is the people mandating others to hop on those abusive drugs as the only way to make progress.
Yeah and it takes time to build momentum and mind muscle connection, when I was finally able to eat enough I grew as fast as I thought I would on sarms. And thats Not a flex, try it...
Stopped going to the gym as often and caring about getting big, just want to be athletic and lean, never found the Bodybuilder look appealing. Just stay natural and focus on health
Body dysmorphia is a problem rampant in everyone due to social media these days- from weight reducing drug crazes, to unsupervised growth horomones and roids, Ed's and body dysmorphia is becoming an epidemic. Shame on anyone who flaunts an artificial body while saying its all natural: You have a right to privacy, and not disclosing it is one thing. Outright lying is another. You have the right to privacy, but you if u ask me ,you shouldnt have the right to give children permanent body issues.
I'm going from morbidly obese to Jacked on my own terms, ALL NATURAL. No supplements, no roids, just my own body. Calisthenics, Cardio, healthy soups and Egg Breakfast. I'm not doing this for anyone but ME. I'm doing this for my health. Right now I'm at about 15% of the way.
@@justsomejerseydevilwithint4606I’m personally unconvinced on everything but protein and c-mono hydrate, but even that stuff is marginal and completely redundant if you have a nutritious diet.
Hollywood kinda started this trend with it's actors, then it bled out to fitness influences and now YAs and kids. At least be honest about your unnatural build.
I had an issue with gynecomastia when I was at my biggest, I have extremely fragile hormones so being like, at my biggest, I started developing it completely naturally and that shit actually made me sad, I ended up losing those gains but the gyno just kinda, went away, like it is just significantly smaller than it was to the point I don't notice it at all, but it certainly didn't make me look good, and kinda made me feel like people would think I was on steroids, but I am 17.
Gynecomastia is actually more common than one might think and it can be perfectly natural. I developed gyno as a teen and it never went away despite never using steroids at all. Some have worse cases of natural origin. What it is rare to see is developing gynecamsatia at a later age past puberty, since hormone fluctuation is not normal unless you are taking drugs. However, steroid use has definitely normalized gynecomastia and more so associating it with steroid use itself. I can feel your pain as someone who has been working out for many years, some people assume I am on steroids due to having gyno. As if gyno wasn't something that caused enough insecurity already in teens, now many who workout have to worry about people thinking their muscular physique is the result of steroids rather than hard work. But hey, keep it up, I'm glad it was able to go away.
Dude, up to 70-75% of men have it to some degree at some point in their life. Puberty is the most common time to develop it, as your test/estrogen ratio increases.
@@qwerty-rh6ht it effected me a lot worse than any of my other friends who had it, mostly due to the fact I have gigantism and at the time was fluctuating in weight like hell.
I am a fairly jacked dude. 6'1 215 lbs and walk around at 12% body fat. But I used to be a skinny teenager that no matter how much I ate couldn't gain a pound. The difference is that I'm 35 years old now and have all that training experience and have had all the time to mature physically. Just be patient, consistent and try to find motivation outside of improving your appearance (like getting stronger at specific lifts or training for a specific sport).
The silver era of bodybuilding is peak aesthetic potential for the genetically gifted. Most would never look like them. You'd likely look more like Mark Zuckerberg does now.
my goal has always been to get myself to about toby miguire spiderman 1. not shredded but clear definition, probably at least mostly natural, and most importantly to me, easily concealable. im not trying to get a concealed carry license for these illegal guns
Even influencers who are honest about roids still do harm by normalizing it. People seem to only talk about roids as a self medication for body dismorphia, but the drug itself causes addiction as well. It shortens your life and reduces your quality of life in so many ways it's crazy, when fitness (and even bodybuilding in the early days) is supposed to be about health. You can be sexy without roids. You can be strong without roids. You can increase your athleticism without roids (in fact, with how it fucks up your tendons and heart it actually damages your performance in many ways.) Even the "honest" influencers who view themselves as martyrs sacrificing for the sport of bodybuildimg aren't telling you they've become addicted to the substance and it fucks up their life in ways beyond how their bodies work.
People are gonna take it anyway. By bringing it to light and being honest about usage, we open the gates for future decriminalization and medical research which would be safer in the long run
@@zemotika which is the hypothesis behind D.A.R.E. Spoilers, it only skyrocketed drug use. Being associated with any current drug users actually increases your chances of also falling to drug use, steroids are no different. Having honest conversations about drugs should not come in the form of addicts justifying their own continual use. We would never let a person _currently_ high on meth come to schools to warn about drug use being bad, "but I'm still using it because it makes me feel really really good."
The problem with Sulek is that while he might not actively promoting PED use he does it indirectly. Hes still on gear, repping big numbers, building a big platform and getting lots of attention. Which is what the whole "results now consequences later" generation absolutely devours.
The worst part about him is he sounds like he's struggling to breath when he's just talking. It's just not worth it. If the steroids don't get you, carrying around so much muscle above your genetic limit will get you in other ways.
@@davida730 he's just a mouth breather, I don't think it has anything to do with roids more than bad habits, derek had the same thing if you watched his old videos.
I had gyno naturally since age 12 and just had it removed at 26 since I have money now. Anyone who does that to themselves purposely is crazy. It’s an easy procedure and quick recovery but still $7-10K.
That's kinda a crazy part anyway. Gymfluencers seem to be rich kids. " my top protein sources" barely recommend anything cheap. Like. If those were recommendations for people struggling and researched accordingly I would have seen turkey hearts and all kinds of organ meat and soy protein, perhaps dipped in pigs blood,by now. It was Halloween Afterall. Then again even a base level effort of thought is too much for most of em. Ripped not good CZcamsrs. Not creative
nah, the most nitpicky substance i've seen break "natty" for hyper purists was creatine, and even that's questionable since you can just grab that anywhere you get whey
@@enixthephoenix3239Literally nobody considers Creatine to be a form of “gear” I don’t know where you got that idea from. Its literally just an amino acid thats naturally found in the human body and is an important part of a healthy diet. Your body literally needs it to function properly, it naturally occurs in many foods we eat including all meats, supplementing it is just taking more than you’d naturally get through your diet same thing as drinking a shake for extra protein.
@@enixthephoenix3239creatine already exists in your muscles. It's a natural product. You just take more than your body can normally produce. It basically pumps water in your muscles, making them bigger.
@@BloodBathhhhWe've been giving drugs to help quell mental states of soldiers in war for like over 100 years. Why do you think soldiers were willing to storm the beaches of Normandy despite watching their fellow men mowed down as they tried to step towards the beach? We gave them a shit ton of methamphetamines to keep them complacent and willing to march towards the meat grinder. The Nazi regime was known for it as well.
They drug test for steroid along with other drugs even on deployment. My brother in law is a Major (Captain when this happened) in the Army and sent a guy home from Afghanistan for failing for steroids. Unfortunately the guy that got sent home offed himself a week or so after he got back in the states. It really hurt my bro in law. He’s never been as happy since then
@@lw3894maybe for steroids but there are more ped’s than just steroids one of my senior enlisted was cycling test and who knows what else I didn’t pry too much
So I'm a 22 male from England, just started at the gym 2 months ago. I know a couple guys who do gear one is a unit and they offered to help me get on it but I'm not interested at all but I'm slowly realising how common it all is here
i didn't hear it mentioned but one of the main reasons not to get on gear is you will crash you natural T levels and have to go to a doctor for it for the rest of your life.
This is honestly hilarious. Remember when this stuff used to be a cardinal sin? Now it's considered cool. Wait till small weiners are cool, then we'd be the one's laughing
"Now it's considered cool" its not really considered cool its just people are pressured to keep up with other people which entices them to use it. I have not once saw someone say it was cool or actively promote it.
Doctor here. For any of you youngins thinking about getting on gear. Think of your life as a string, and for every year you are on steroids your string markedly gets shorter and starts to unwind at the end. The fraying is your cardiovascular system. I just put a 29 yo dude on a ventilator because of a stroke. His heart is caput. This is getting to insane. That's my PSA. Do with it what you will
What is the point in gaining so much muscle it becomes a disability? Being muscular with great proportions while being athletic and flexible is truly beautiful to me
There's sort of a paradox in natural bodybuilding. It's that you can easily spot a fake natty on stage if we played bit of devil's advocate and say hypothetically it's all hard work and genetics. Then wtf is he doing as a natural, when those would be the ideal genetics for any professional. Are you beginning to see why it feels like such a paradox.
What alot of people dont understand is that the steriod monsters we see online would still look like units without the gear. Genetics play a larger part then people want to believe
I get what you mean. A side thought, what would you call the symbol in your profile picture? I see the you know what in the design, but what is that design called? Genuinely interested in knowing.
@@ulyssesm.daniels6927 First of all, thank you for not skinning me alive like most people do when they see my profile pictures. This is an ancient Finnish symbol called Tursaansydän. It's the heart of a sea monster called Tursas/Iku-Turso. I really like this symbol because it is one of the rare things that are unique to my culture. It does have the symbol most people nowadays call "Swastika" (be it Swastika is one specific type of hooked cross that originates from India). I think the reason it appears in so many ancient cultures is the basic geometry of it and how symmetrical it is. Some people get offended despite me explaining it to them to a point that I have stopped caring. I sometimes wonder why people stay so mad over such little things.
these issues are 100 percent true. i still have a tiny bit of body fat on my lower belly regardless of training for 8 years unless id take steroids that lower ab body fat will stay genetically ive learned to except it. with good lighting and a low enough bodyfat and a healthy lifestyle you can take pictures where you have a really great natural physique.
@eventydefallacy8464 I do I took oral tren in my past I have personal experience but thanks for making assumptions. More muscle means less body fat because the more muscle you have and the more testosterone or testosterone Luke substances you have in the body the more fat you burn and the more muscle you can add. If gear didn't build muscle and burn fat hoe do Mr olympias exist on stage with gear?
@eventydefallacy8464 oral tren made me massive with single digit bodyfat however it ruined my life made me roid rage and I lost a great job I'm now just getting to a place in life where I'm doing great roid free. Steroids ruin lives I wouldn't suggest them to my friends or enemies.
@eventydefallacy8464 I know it's why I'll never take roids again only need tongkat ali fadojia agrestis creatine beta alanine and nmn for my current physique which I'm happy with now. I'm not about stregth but about anesthetic look honestly. I don't need to be huge like a hulk.
Bro what I don't understand is how easy it is to get/buy gear. Like I've seen stories of literal 15-16 year olds using gear and shit. Is it really that easy to buy steroids in western countries? Like isn't there an age restriction type thing that prevents teens from buying that shit? I live in South Africa so this shit sounds wild to me.
@@jl-the-great2132Imagine your drug dealer pulling out a card reader though lmao. "Ah, yes. Please let me leave an obvious digital trace, leading from me to you. Thanks brother."
I saw a video once and this guy was in a body building contest and I was like wtf this guy is so small....then i found out it was a natural body building contest and was like oh yeah roids lol
When was this? Exercise has always been a fad. You seen the old commercials for the shaking machines that "shake" the fat off you. Exercise was for fighting wars and combat has never been about "health". Strongest people in society where the labors or knights
@rookapooka4873 and that's what i said....WHEN has health ever been a focus in fitness? It has always been for trends in modern-day society. Anything further back was all about staying in fighting shape for war or you just where healthy cause you had to work fields and do trades BY HAND.
As someone who goes to the gym twice a day, this shit is just not healthy. And even I can admit that the only reason I go twice a day is due to seeing influencers online who are just the size of a fucking house and I’ll tell myself “well if I can get even a quarter of that muscle I’ll be happy.” But it’s just NOT feasible when you consider how many of them are on PED’s. I’m only on protein and I feel like I can’t even compete with the freaks who are at my gym right now. It’s kinda disheartening tbh but I mean is what it is, I’m also not willing to do any level of PED’s because I just don’t know what it does to your body long term if you stop taking them and I really don’t want to find out.
The only way twice a day is anywhere near effective is if you are on PEDs. That's why most gear is so effective. It let's you reach your limit so much more often and recover pretty much by the next day. If you're actually training well during those sessions, you're hindering your progress significantly with that volume.
Maybe you should take Mike Metzgers advice and work out a lot less but with more intensity. What you're doing gives no room for recovery and muscle growth.
@@ramsoomair I thought it wasn't so but after looking at him for a while and doing research yep he's juiced to the maxed. You can't look like him even if you worked out for 50 years
Liver King even admitted that he had to go back on gear to feal normal. I abused gear in my 20s. i am now 40. I can tell you that my life has been turned upside down so many times due to that simple fact. I now have to take TRT for the rest of my life. STAY AWAY at all costs. STAY NATURAL.
I would say it's not only the fitness CZcamsr, actors been doing it for years already and a whole lot of people don't realize that most if not all of them also take gear
I see a lumpy muscled up person and I don't think "Wow what a heath and fitness routine they must have" I think "WHAT A STUPID ROIDS USER" and sounds like i'm 100% correct.

I noticed this for some years.. people with online presence (IG / CZcams channel) doing vlog & shit & super frequently talking about cycle.. super open (the good, the bad, the drama) & weirdly participating in bodybuilding contests.. suggesting is so common to use, it doesn't even matter you admit using it on video.. they all not natties! There is a youtuber (who also used) & does a bunch a shorts where he ask people from Gym & events if they use/used.. many many do, incl females (for some is super obvious because their face modified.. come on, you know, a female that used gear for 10 years.. that face).. and from time to time, some women (on IG) post shorts with answering question & confirm they use gear & some even sell (training sessions + pdf / recipes with what anabolic cocktail they use).
It’d be awesome if you did a video covering the current state of the Opioid Epidemic around the world but primarily in our Country. It’s affecting countless communites and spreading awareness and understanding helps save lives. More Americans have died solely by Fentanyl in the last four years than were killed in WW2.
Those dealers aren't synthesizing the steroids (active ingredients) themselves, they're simply dissolving the active ingredients in solvents, filtering, and packaging
I make my own gear it’s easy just a carrier oil like mct oil Benzo benzoate and benzo alcohol. Then the powder is added and it’s heated up and stirred for 20 minutes. Very simple
The pressure that social media puts on these influencers is so disgusting. They always have to look ripped all the time, they will often deliberately dehydrate themselves to make their veins/muscles look bigger, and starve themselves to maintain a perfect physique. Even aside from PED use, it's an incredibly serious problem.
It only puts pressure on you if you are part of the social media problem in the first place. You can forgive under 18s obviously as they are more impressionable than they are responsible for.

My membership is viable for 2 chains. 3 locations in My city. The cheap one with alot of younger folks has 3+ guys, somewhere between 25-35 though that are absolutely clearly on roids. One sponsored. In the other one one time 2 guys walked in one benching 200 + kilo and just looking very much not naturally possible. Another guy that seemingly disappeared now n was trainer wasn't that big but maybe a bit too vascular. The achne though. Alot of it. It's commonplace enough. A gym I used to go to had a pro as owner. A damn big ex of relatives had a stroke. I'd bet he was on roids. Chemist friend? Well the Internet exists.
I only trust calisthenics guys and those fat huge dudes at the gym, strong as hell. Dudes with huge muscles and popped veins all over are simply juicers, nothing else.
It is pretty normalized it feels like. I don't dislike people on gear, but i feel like there should be some shame when openly discussing it (just because it might give the impression that steroids are an acceptable and normal thing to do). The honesty is valuable, but i think that the more particular discussions about stacks are outside the realm of helpful. Kinda like how decriminalizing certain drugs has failed horribly in parts of the world.
as long as people are honest about it i dont see a problem with steroids i always hate that argument like they are glorifying it to a young impressionable audience like if they are a child their parent should control and monitor what they are watching online and if they are an adult they are capable of making their own decision whether they want to take steroids or not
There is definitely a correlation between the modern meaning crisis ( the lack of higher purpose) and the expansion of the material aspect of a human. Our attention is focused on the expansion of a body via technology to compensate the lack of you can say metaphysics.

Gynecomastia isnt "fat" underneath the nipple. It's actual breast glandular tissue, the same as women have. The reason it gets worse on steroids is the same reason some men get it during puberty.

Breast glandular tissue is mostly fat, so yes, gynocomastia IS fat.
The main issue is that people no longer know what a true natty is capable of anymore. For reference look at bodybuilders pre-steroids(anything before 1935) and see what the human body is capable of without roids.
Especially now with everybody being more open with their steroid use but not warning about the risks thus glorifying it and a massive global insecurity plague especially from those taking steroids they have to try and justify it.

As someone with a natural gyno, I seriously don't understand why anyone would want to choose to have that seeing the insecurities I went through growing up.

I used to be big into lifting for years and years. Near every single day from 14 to 21 I lifted, minimum 4 days per week and max 6. Naturally I got to probably the peak of what I’m capable of, about 6’2” 200lbs around 8% body fat. Standing next to my friend and gym partner who’d been taking steroids for 3 years, I looked like absolute garbage.
Wrong, you looked *healthy*
I feel yah, Iv been training hard now for over 10 years. 6’2 230. The gym I go to is loaded with juice heads of all ages , many in their teens are putting up 405 + on bench . It’s very discouraging.

Rn you have male influencers telling their followers to “get in the gym, get your money up, cut all women off when your rich then women will come to you” etc , and then you got women influencers telling their audience to “manipulate men’s emotions, use their mental health against them to strip them of everything they got” social media is making toxic men and women that are awfully perfect for each other
At least the male message you described is just true and is the way, it doesn't hurt anyone at all. It isn't toxic to get your shit together and stay away from women until you're ready.
I don’t think the male message is toxic at all it has no manipulation and is a way of saying good things come to those who wait and set your life up. Whilst girls withhold and manipulate lonely people so they can steal another man’s hard work.
They should try therapy instead of roids.
It won’t help them cope with their lack of intelligence and muscles
We need to make these kids play old-school RuneScape man, they need to realize skills and strength are long arduous grinds to achieve 😂
Saw a 16 year old on insta that glorified usage, and everyone in the comments supported it. Why do we live in a world where a 16 year old kid gets hyped up for taking drugs.
I work out at a local gym that shares with the high school, we get many middle school and high school aged kids in there and I overhear them talking about the SARMS they are on very frequently, a lot of them. It's super disheartening to hear.
As someone who’s goal is to have every muscle as big and as strong as possible naturally, I can say that I dislike the “fitness industry”. Mainly because a large majority of them are on roids so that eliminates the fitness aspect by default. I have my goal set because I’m genuinely curious how large and strong I could get at my genetic limit. I will never touch roids though, all the health detriments for extra muscle is a terrible trade off. I also love lifting so I’m always going to keep pushing more weight and get bigger by default as I progress as long as I eat well.
Just don't start to hit too high of a volume. I'm a long time natty lifter and I hit long plateaus thinking my genetic limit was trash. Turned out, I was lifting with guys juicing and working out just as hard or harder, but my body couldn't recover like theirs. I lowered the volume and the plateau ended pretty quick

At least be honest about your unnatural build.
I had an issue with gynecomastia when I was at my biggest, I have extremely fragile hormones so being like, at my biggest, I started developing it completely naturally and that shit actually made me sad, I ended up losing those gains but the gyno just kinda, went away, like it is just significantly smaller than it was to the point I don't notice it at all, but it certainly didn't make me look good, and kinda made me feel like people would think I was on steroids, but I am 17.
I was anorexic as a child, overweight in my mid teens but I was active, so my body had a huge rebound plus I have a tumour in my pituitary gland.
Gynecomastia is actually more common than one might think and it can be perfectly natural. I developed gyno as a teen and it never went away despite never using steroids at all. Some have worse cases of natural origin. What it is rare to see is developing gynecamsatia at a later age past puberty, since hormone fluctuation is not normal unless you are taking drugs. However, steroid use has definitely normalized gynecomastia and more so associating it with steroid use itself. I can feel your pain as someone who has been working out for many years, some people assume I am on steroids due to having gyno. As if gyno wasn't something that caused enough insecurity already in teens, now many who workout have to worry about people thinking their muscular physique is the result of steroids rather than hard work. But hey, keep it up, I'm glad it was able to go away.
Dude, up to 70-75% of men have it to some degree at some point in their life. Puberty is the most common time to develop it, as your test/estrogen ratio increases.

I am a fairly jacked dude. 6'1 215 lbs and walk around at 12% body fat. But I used to be a skinny teenager that no matter how much I ate couldn't gain a pound. The difference is that I'm 35 years old now and have all that training experience and have had all the time to mature physically. Just be patient, consistent and try to find motivation outside of improving your appearance (like getting stronger at specific lifts or training for a specific sport).
Look at bodybuilders before steroids were a thing. You can definitely get a good body. Just not crazy.
The silver era of bodybuilding is peak aesthetic potential for the genetically gifted. Most would never look like them. You'd likely look more like Mark Zuckerberg does now.

Even influencers who are honest about roids still do harm by normalizing it. People seem to only talk about roids as a self medication for body dismorphia, but the drug itself causes addiction as well. It shortens your life and reduces your quality of life in so many ways it's crazy, when fitness (and even bodybuilding in the early days) is supposed to be about health.
You can be sexy without roids. You can be strong without roids. You can increase your athleticism without roids (in fact, with how it fucks up your tendons and heart it actually damages your performance in many ways.) Even the "honest" influencers who view themselves as martyrs sacrificing for the sport of bodybuildimg aren't telling you they've become addicted to the substance and it fucks up their life in ways beyond how their bodies work.

This is an ancient Finnish symbol called Tursaansydän. It's the heart of a sea monster called Tursas/Iku-Turso. I really like this symbol because it is one of the rare things that are unique to my culture. It does have the symbol most people nowadays call "Swastika" (be it Swastika is one specific type of hooked cross that originates from India). I think the reason it appears in so many ancient cultures is the basic geometry of it and how symmetrical it is.

As someone who goes to the gym twice a day, this shit is just not healthy. And even I can admit that the only reason I go twice a day is due to seeing influencers online who are just the size of a fucking house and I’ll tell myself “well if I can get even a quarter of that muscle I’ll be happy.” But it’s just NOT feasible when you consider how many of them are on PED’s. I’m only on protein and I feel like I can’t even compete with the freaks who are at my gym right now. It’s kinda disheartening tbh but I mean is what it is, I’m also not willing to do any level of PED’s because I just don’t know what it does to your body long term if you stop taking them and I really don’t want to find out.
Lol you don’t have to be at the gym twice a day. You could be at the gym twice a week and get maximum results.
How lazy your trainings have to be for you to be able to keep going to the gym twice a day as a natural?
The only way twice a day is anywhere near effective is if you are on PEDs. That's why most gear is so effective. It let's you reach your limit so much more often and recover pretty much by the next day. If you're actually training well during those sessions, you're hindering your progress significantly with that volume.
Maybe you should take Mike Metzgers advice and work out a lot less but with more intensity. What you're doing gives no room for recovery and muscle growth.
You're going to the gym twice a day and thinking you'll get better? You sound like a freshman who can barely bench the bar.
Any bodybuilder who actually competes it’s probably on gear

My membership is viable for 2 chains. 3 locations in My city. The cheap one with alot of younger folks has 3+ guys, somewhere between 25-35 though that are absolutely clearly on roids. One sponsored. In the other one one time 2 guys walked in one benching 200 + kilo and just looking very much not naturally possible. Another guy that seemingly disappeared now n was trainer wasn't that big but maybe a bit too vascular. The achne though. Alot of it. It's commonplace enough. A gym I used to go to had a pro as owner. A damn big ex of relatives had a stroke. I'd bet he was on roids. Chemist friend? Well the Internet exists.
How are people having access to steroids anyway?? I’m trying to get my hands on edibles that’ll send me to the moon
7:12 thats me
It’s because watching a video of someone doesn’t show how massive they actually are. If 99% of people saw these gear heads in person, they’d throw up.
I only trust calisthenics guys and those fat huge dudes at the gym, strong as hell. Dudes with huge muscles and popped veins all over are simply juicers, nothing else.
Internet was a mistake.
charlie, "im not into the fitness industry"
also charlie, talks about it constantly
It is pretty normalized it feels like. I don't dislike people on gear, but i feel like there should be some shame when openly discussing it (just because it might give the impression that steroids are an acceptable and normal thing to do).
The honesty is valuable, but i think that the more particular discussions about stacks are outside the realm of helpful. Kinda like how decriminalizing certain drugs has failed horribly in parts of the world.
Remeber when during the monarchy every British man had to practice archery......now they just juice every sunday
as long as people are honest about it i dont see a problem with steroids i always hate that argument like they are glorifying it to a young impressionable audience like if they are a child their parent should control and monitor what they are watching online and if they are an adult they are capable of making their own decision whether they want to take steroids or not
The internet has created a broken society epidemic
with how widespread it is, i say we just accept it and legalize steroids. adults should be allowed to do what they want.
There are already plenty of people talking about this on the Internet, who know a lot more than you do.
Most people don’t realize if you take roids doesn’t guarantee you’ll look perfect. A lot of it is genetics
Being jacked isn't exclusive to people on gear. You can get very far naturally.
There is definitely a correlation between the modern meaning crisis ( the lack of higher purpose) and the expansion of the material aspect of a human. Our attention is focused on the expansion of a body via technology to compensate the lack of you can say metaphysics.
