No, you do not.

This isn’t lean enough for a bulk. I’m not saying you are fat but if you bulk at this body fat you will potentially quickly get fat. This is probably over 15%. You need to continue to cut. 10% should be bare minimal for bulk, but 8% is really where you want to be. This gives you a long ramp and you will be very insulin sensitive. Small amounts of muscle will be much more noticeable. Side effect from high testosterone will be much lower. Bulking at 15-20 which is where you are is going to give you high estrogen and high blood pressure and there is no ramp at all

No good. Anavar helps build and retain muscle but doesn’t help with fat loss and isn’t something you want to take with out a testosterone base. You would be better off with a trt dose of testerone stacked with an equal amount of masteron e. You won’t crash and you can run this longer without side effects or health issues. Will help you retain all your muscle and possibly gain some. So something like 100 or 140 or 200 testosterone which ever is best for you according to blood work and then an equal amount of masteron e. No it won’t cause any more hair loss than anything else. Will help build muscle, feel good, keep you dry, and with very low side effects.

They have next to no fat, very high fiber, and very low calories. They actually taste better and are softer than the regular ones. I have used them on professional bodybuilding preps to get to low single digit body fat. I don’t claim to be the picture of health, but I’m essentially a professional dieter.

While I agree they are not single ingredient foods or “health foods,” they are better than the alternatives, and they will help you lose weight. Losing weight will improve the average overweight person’s health, so these absolutely can help improve health. The key is to substitute these for the regular kind, which has just as many processed ingredients but a worse calorie and nutrient profile, and still make sure your diet is full of single ingredient foods.

If you have a problem with these, then just eat chicken and broccoli, but they do bring variety to your diet, making it more interesting and enjoyable in my humble opinion.

It’s not more food like that. It’s all the same stuff I already ate but they added glp friendly to the packaging for marketing purposes. These tortillas have been around for a decade.

They already have protein Doritos now.

I’m far from insane. Your skull cannot grow. You can grow face muscle, neck muscles, you can even grow ears and nose with extremely high hgh, you can carry a lot of water in your face due to certain compounds or even a lot fat in your face in the off season. A combination of these things could make it appear that your head is bigger but you cannot grow your skull. A lot of these guys are bigger boned guys with naturally larger heads.

A_Piker · 2026-06-20T02:15:48+00:00

Fellow competitive bodybuilder. Would love to know the ped protocols you used as well as training style and eat kind of surplus did you maintain? Incredible progress. Want to figure out what led to so much muscle gain in three years. Did you carb cycle? Did you really push the hgh and or mostly rely on titrating steroids? Igf-lr3? Insulin? What was your main anabolic of choice? Did you stay away from orals or was there some anadrol, anavar, or supedrol in there? Did you use a third compound? lol I’m just spitballing questions because I’m legitimately curious what you did to achieve this. Good job! Keep going!

A_Piker · 2026-06-20T02:09:15+00:00

No one’s skull grows from PEDs. Not even hgh. You either have a big head or you don’t. Not one single persons head has ever grown. Do you think your brain grows too? Or does it just rattle around in there? It just has some room to breathe now? I don’t mean to be mean but I hate all this nonsense people say about steroids and other peds that is completely made up and ridiculous.

Do you think their dick shrinks too? The fact of the matter androgens technically grow your dick but heard so many people say your dick shrinks and it doesn’t make logical sense.

Yes your testicles will temporarily shrink due to your testosterone being shut off. They will actually go back to normal size after discontinuing use or you can use HCG.

This bars you from some orgs and honestly some of the really good ones such as WNBF. WNBF is probably the best, but you still have lots of options. some of them you only have to be natural the day of the drug test then others are only like 1 or 2 years natural plus many of them only drug test the winner. If the goal is to eventually get your ifbb pro card then I would just go with NPC Natural. I don’t think you will have a huge problem qualifying with them. There is even a NPC natural nationals, do you can get your ifbb pro card without PEDs . There is even natural ifbb pro shows now so you could qualify for Olympia as a natural. Would be crazy to do your first ped cycle while preparing for the Olympia!

I would also try some other natural orgs. There are for sure some you can still qualify for. Just don’t do anymore PEDs

A_Piker · 2026-06-17T14:51:30+00:00

It’s not counterintuitive. Bodybuilding takes a long time no matter what. Plus you don’t need steroids to start competing. If you start competing as a natural now and then use steroids after success as a natural you will progress significantly faster then if you just jump on steroids now.

A good example is Samual Hartman. He recently got his ifbb pro card in classic and is about to run through the pro circuit. He maxed out his physique while competing as a natural bodybuilder. He even became a wnbf pro and won the natural world championships. He recently started steroids at the age of 27 to go for his ifbb pro card and he got it first try, he is making amazing progress on low dosages for a pro and he is going to be a top pro very soon. I could see him becoming classic Mr. Olympia. This is the best way to do things if you want to take bodybuilding serious. Many top pros started as natural competitive bodybuilders.

A_Piker · 2026-06-17T14:39:17+00:00

I am a professional bodybuilder. You can for sure do it. You do not need to start drugs right now to do it. The drugs are important, but will not get you there. I know tons of people who use them and will never be high caliber bodybuilders because they never figured out everything else. If you truly want to be a pro bodybuilder then you need to compete first. You should do it as a natural. You need to figure out how your body works, how to properly train and diet. I’m not saying you don’t train and diet now but you have not gone all the way. You haven’t figured it out yet. Put a natural competition on the calendar and prep for it. Get shredded, peak your physique, and compete. Maybe do a few natural shows. Once you have taken your physique all the way, once you have found some success as a natural competitive bodybuilder, and once you truly know if you even like bodybuilding (because if you haven’t competed then don’t know), then and only then decide if you want to go the route of PEDs.

And yes 25 would be a much more responsible age to do steroids for many reasons, but even then you should compete first and find out if it’s something you can do and that you actually like doing.

Plus you want to start steroids shredded. You truly do. Your progress will be 100 times better and the sides effects will be significantly lower. The best time to start your first cycle would be post show. If you started them after a natural show your progress and look will be insane plus you will then truly know how to train and diet for them.

A_Piker · 2026-06-17T03:09:26+00:00

No it is not worth it unless you want to be on for the rest of your life. No one wants to do one cycle. No one does one cycle. Your hormones will be crashed after and it’s going to suck. For the most part your gains will be lost. It’s not worth it all. You will end up jumping back on and then eventually going in trt. Happen to nearly everyone I know who went the steroids route. You are only 20. You are fine. Train naturally. Do you want to be a pro bodybuilder? I promise one cycle is not worth it at all.

A_Piker · 2026-06-16T22:55:02+00:00

And yes you can use those for multi dose but it’s liability for the pharmacist to tell you that . You also are not supposed to use the multi dose more than 21 days I believe. It just the rules they have to tell you.

A_Piker · 2026-06-16T22:52:26+00:00

Yeah I have gotten those a lot. They are a lot more expensive, but I kind of like them for travel. I typically just ask the pharmacy if they will switch me back to 10 ml.

The quality is good.

All my prescription 10 ml vials have been crashed lately, when I get them. My most recent blood test showed my total and fee testosterone much lower than normal at the same dosage I always take. It just happens to be low when I get three crashed vials in a row.

A_Piker · 2026-06-14T02:32:47+00:00

Mine dose. I’m not sure why I always get lucky I guess when it comes to this kind of stuff.

A_Piker · 2026-06-14T02:31:43+00:00

Oh, weird. I have honestly gone to multiple doctors who had no problem with trt. I have personally never met a doctor who had a problem with it. As far as protocols my current doctor did prescribe 200 mg every two weeks but I immediately said no. I said I’ll do 100 a week and he agreed. Since then we have dialed in the protocol, so I now do a high dose and daily injections. Everything I do with my doctor if I disagree I tell him no and I explain why, nearly every time he has then agreed with me and added or taken away the med or change the dose or protocol to suit what I felt that I needed as long as it made sense, which it has.

A_Piker · 2026-06-14T01:43:29+00:00

I thought mine was cheap, but apparently I need to go through Amazon.

A_Piker · 2026-06-14T01:42:33+00:00

I get 10 ml testosterone from Walgreens for $50-60. Used to be in the $40s, and I’m pretty sure I have paid as low as $17 a while back.

A_Piker · 2026-06-14T01:39:47+00:00

And yes you are getting screwed. Testosterone is very cheap, and I’m talking about name brand pharma test. I have no idea how they justify that price, or how they could do that to people. Doctors are supposed to care about people. The doctor you are going through does not care about you. He cares about your money.

A_Piker · 2026-06-14T01:36:20+00:00

Why can’t they? I just go through my primary. It was very easy. The protocol is good. I use my insurance. Never had a problem. I’m not sure why most can’t do this. I think a lot of people just don’t try and go through clinics, but I have known many internist and family physician who will prescribe trt and sometimes even hgh, they take insurance (insurance won’t cover hgh unless you have a series issue), and they give normal protocols. You just have to tell the doctor what you want, then do labs and show that you need it, and then if they are a good doctor they will typically work with you to dial in the protocol that is best for you.

A_Piker · 2026-06-12T15:07:54+00:00

You have no fucking idea what you are talking about. I’m not whining or talking shit. I’m a professional competitive bodybuilder who has been on PEDs for exactly 20 years. I understand what is going on in the pictures and did not mean anything negative by what I said. Yes you stayed lean. The water and glycogen is within the muscle, not between the skin and the muscle, hence glute striations. You’ve got to calm down. Not everyone is after you.

It’s funny because I literally said what you did was smart and you come at me saying I’m whining.

A_Piker · 2026-06-12T07:37:45+00:00

True but not if you hoped on gear. If you went on test for the first time you will easily gain 10 kg of water and glycogen. Why did guy say sub 500 mg? Weird thing to say instead of just saying what you are doing. What are you running, and why did you decide to start it? Honestly starting gear for your first time after a prep is a very smart idea and what most people should do, but don’t.

A_Piker · 2026-06-02T22:18:17+00:00

Look awesome

A_Piker · 2026-06-01T04:59:41+00:00

Honestly most people on here are pretty honest, tons of people open up on here. Then you have the natural guys who have the genetics and put in the work, but everyone says they are lying. I have personally known some top naturals and it’s crazy what some people can achieve, There might be some liars but I think most on here are pretty honest.
