Thread: Any strongman guys here?

From my reading on AAS and by talking to competitors, seems DECA is the preferred AAS, Halo 2 started 2 weeks before comp, ratio of test to deca at 2:1.
Glutathione helps with the toxicity of some of the harsher AAS.

We made a lot of our own, stones we made with balloons and plaster of Paris, there are calculations on how much concrete to use, the cans we use are metal and filled with concrete.

I enjoy it a lot, wish I would have started it sooner! HGH is another compound to look into, expensive to run, but worth it.

I’m pretty much within my first year of AAS only run test E is deca something someone new to gear should run? My strength is coming pretty quick, not to sound conceited because I think there is a lot of room to grow but for my first year of working out I think I’m at a pretty good place I’m looking at getting a 600lbs deadlift by early next year. Hopefully March or so. I can do a 175lbs stone with no tacky also being brand new to stones. Haven’t tried farmers or yolk unfortunately but am looking into purchasing either the equipment or stuff needed to build it. I’ve read that HGH is good for top level athletes trying to gain any bit of ground but not so good for intermediates, what are your thoughts on that? Thanks for the advice.

I'd say stick with the test as long as it's working, not sure on your age, do you plan on PCT or cruising? Even a low dose of DECA or NPP weekly would do wonders for your joints. HGH isn't something I'd go into lightly either, I love it for healing and my sleep is fantastic, but it's expensive and I'd wait till you get really serious into competitions if that's your goal.

100mg weekly of DECA or NPP would be a good addition just for the benefits for the joints. They are also a good AAS once you start to stack with your test.

Personally I never train with tacky, it takes the grip strength out, and you'd be amazed training without, how easy those stones are come comp time with tacky.

36 I got into the game late but am trying to make up ground by having a crazy work ethic and trying to check all the important boxes, diet, sleep, recovery, and AAS.I am on TRT something is causing my pituitary gland to not work right so my test levels are a low 100’s so I’m always on a cruising dose of test I’m running cycles of it been thinking about npp but have heard horror stories about deca so am cautious. The big thing is I don’t know enough yet to really dig in and am worried about causing real harm by missing something important.

You are doing it right, learn first then jump in. Start gradually, blood work, and don't forget to keep AI on hand. Is the best advice I had been given before starting.

Yeah, I’m grabbing some of that here in a couple weeks I’m starting to plan out my next cycle other than test. I think I’m going to run a small dose cycle of deca you have me Intrigued. I’m probably going to put the cycle together then post it in the forum for the pros to take a peak at and give advice. Probably post any pertinent info to make sure something isn’t missing. Like body weight maybe take bloodwork ahead of cycle than plan on bloodwork throughout. Thanks you for the advice I really appreciate it.

Anytime! There are a lot more knowledgeable guys here on that stuff than me, but I've tried to soak up as much as I can from the experts!
