But other than these minor side effects they work right?

Pretty much all incorrect or preventable with proper post cycle therapy.

There are two ways to get stronger. The first is to increase your muscle size to increase your strength base. The second involves getting your neurons to fire more efficiently and so maximize your strength given your muscle size. That will involve a more traditional powerlifting or olympic lifting program. The basic idea is to lift very heavy weights at low reps trying to break personal records each time. That's how olympic lifters manage to get stronger without going out of weight.

I have a friend who does alot of MMA and he always tells me that strength is more of a mental thing. I guess he means not cracking under nerves when in a fight, but he is a ridiculously strong guy for his size.

If you go to buy a jacket and you have a negative drop, it's time to throw that ice cream cone in the trash and go to the gym.

Did you do this under the guidelines established by a reputable health industry regulation agency? Or was it sort of a legal "gray area"? I'm honestly curious. I was under the impression that steroids were not FDA approved.

Are you 98 years old with a full life behind you? Is that the pitter patter of a gazillion granchildren I hear?

My usage of AAS was completely illegal under law. I can't really tell if you're trying to be a smart ass but I don't really care regardless.

Although I don't cycle anymore, I have normal cholesterol and blood pressure and no other problems? Did you know there has never been a death confirmed to be caused by steroid usage? Although the fallacies about them have been debunked a thousand times and tons of 30+ year users have been interviewed, tested and turn out healthy you judgmental uninformed people continue your tirade. It's fucking baffling. You should probably just go back to watching CNN and Fox News and call it a day. Maybe they'll start attaching terror alerts to steroids to kick it up.

People who are irresponsible and uninformed with AAS make it dangerous.

I agree, I've done a ton of reading on Anabolics and I've know a couple of juicers, and they seem pretty side-less as they've got their cycles and post-cycles down pat.

I would never juice as I don't even want to take the slightest chance of messing up my body, and I don't want to get TEH HYOOOG.

Also, I think it is a little too vain, but that being said, I post on a forum where men talk about clothes.

Me?

I was just pointing out, indirectly, that your science n=1 has little merit.
