Natty Lifting, is it worth it or is it a waste of time. That’s for yall to decide but I’ll put my input into it.

I was sitting down on the leg extension machine today and legs are always something I have struggled to grow due to my muscle belly insertion, however I had good strength for my weight. For example I can SLDL 315 for reps at 150. :Sigma: I noticed I had lost a rep or 2 during my set. And the day before I had lost 2 rep also on the shoulder press machine. I was FUMING :Smadge: and sad…

Nonetheless as stated by the weight I am at I am what they would call VICTIM WEIGHT. And I agree. While I am no longer a bloated gymcel I have cut down so much that I have come across 2 paths in my natty cuck lifting journey

I have either grown WEAKER or remained the SAME :cagerage:

I believe this to be of both my nutrient deprivation and the overall loss of mass. Now could this be fixable by just simply tweaking my diet including more carbohydrates focusing on protein intake and keeping my calories at maintenance?

YES :YesYes:

But just like all proper lmers we understand lean is law and I’m not going to reach 10 percent bf just by eating “maintenance” yes I starve myself and puke put the food I eat lots of the time. (Ty Reta for slowing my digestion) and also yes when I did eat in a surplus I would gain strength almost every session on all lifts since I was very smart with excersize selection, diet, and volume. But now that I’m 60 pounds leaner from when I was peak gymceling I’ve barely been able to push the same weight with fluctuations of losing strength.

As I get leaner and my clothes fit bigger and bigger my face gets more sharp it comes at the cost of being stagnant gym progress wise. And it’s honestly
DEPRESSING :TriSad: and I have found 2 decisions for me to make to keep my mental sanity.

Either
QUIT the gym momentarily (until I can roid…soon) . Or eat more to start gaining strength.

Let’s take a quick look at these 2 before I even say my choice.

UR FUCKING SUB HUMAN :RAGE:

Now no hate to Lucas as I find his new transformation and how he’s living life quite inspiring. But unless you are a genetic anomaly with 5+ years of lifting. You will NEVER look big and shredded unless shirtless. And it’s simply just a waste of time when you can achieve in shorter time and look better than you ever would natty just by cruising with the occasional blast for 1-2 years.

Either be a model twink or pick up the needle before you even pick up a weight. Natty is cucked as FUCK and so is legs…

Time to go into full starvation mode bhais :PepoHappy:

Yes and no, natty lifting is good for your "newbie gains", roiding from the beggining is not a smart idea for many reasons.

It’s at least a starting point most people who are just getting into weight lifting aren’t going to blast roids off the rip

only worth it to learn form and shit before hopping on , stimulus also helps maintain muscle on cuts but in terms of actually trying to get a physique halo yeah it's very shitty
Unless you have excellent genetics you'll have to commit your life for 3 years to still get mogged to death by a lazy roider in 6 months

Yes and no imo but you should atleast wait a few years (2-3) before hopping on. Even if you're gonna hop on I'd say that No one should hop on if they don't have the genetics for it or they don't do bodybuilding cuz otherwise why do it

For majority of people its going to take you 3 -5 year's of consistent dieting and training to reach a physique people look at and ask you for advice or get away with walking around shirtless

Physique Halo start's at 200lbs (95kg) lean (if your above 5'10)

Knowing that life ends at 30, you must understand you dont really have enough time to get your dream physique n show it off, by the time you reach your goal naturally, becky and Stacy already found someone to ride while you where going monk mode in the gym

so due to time constraints, if you above the age of 17 with average genetics, and when you wear a shirt no on can tell you lift. Roiding is mandatory to stand out

Depends on what you consider natural

If you don't compete atleast you should try dmaa and test

"You need to pick up and put back down man made metal for X amount of year's before hopping on cause your genetics might change the interaction with roids after a couple of year's "

At this point, being enhance means being natural due to the degradation of testosterone levels in men. I already feel that being natural means being below what one should be.
