It is truly a selfish sport, our wives put up with so much, such patient creatures at times. heck, men can be worst than women, we are battling ourselves in the mirror more..

I'd really love to hear from others about why they started juicing. Or even what drives you to want to be so big? Some people like myself, didn't even realize what the driving factors were until I actually thought about it and dove way deep into it.

I born with physical problems and can only do sports at age of 20, born to skinny and small and in school they all criticize me . I said to me one day people will look at me with respect and i will be huge. My dream was never compete or be top pro, but only live this lifsyle 100% and be a freak.

With E.P. will be easy to reach this dream :P

When i started doing some heavy lifts, especialy leg workout i could barely move for a week from such pain, so i checked some ways to go around it, tried testosterone and it helped alot.
I started cycling because i was already using test, and was already not natural, why not make a propper cycle?
I normally cycle then go pct and stop for some months so the receptors get clean, and start over to make more volume.
I hear DOMS (actual clinically diagnosed DOMS) is quite agonizing. Many people throw around the term DOMS when referring to simple muscle soreness after training. As I'm sure you know actual DOMS is a medical condition that causes excessive pain and inflammation of muscles. I'm sorry you have to deal with that. Do steroids completely mitigate the issue for you?

*Also FYI....androgen receptors do not need to be cleaned out or refreshed. They do not down-regulate or become less responsive to androgens over time....in fact it's quite the opposite. Androgen receptors regenerate in the presence of androgens so they are always fresh and receptive to androgen stimulation :).
While on cycle it mostly does, if I train to failure or try to go heavier it will still hurt the next few days, but that's only normal pain I can live with.
If trained legs with half the weight I do now while natty I wouldn't be able to walk for a week 😅
When I go 2 deep in cutting and Cardio getting high (1x60m a day) I start getting those DOMS again, normally have to decrease some volume

I love to train. Anything that allows me to do that harder and get more out of it is good to me. I come from being an athlete to a heroin addict to bodybuilding. It allows me to have a purpose for all hours of my day and to separate myself from the pack. Training is my anti drug.

Good for you bro. I've noticed bodybuilding/weightlifting in general is a very popular outlet for people with a history of addiction.

I know I'm preaching to the choir here but hear me out. The following is only my theory/opinion and may not be accurate so feel free to keep me honest if I'm wrong...

So anyways, I've always believed that addiction is wired into certain people. It's a personality trait in my opinion. What they get addicted to depends on what grabs ahold of them first. Drugs, sex, gambling, etc. are all the easiest to get hooked on so often you hear more about that. However, even if an addict gets clean from whatever they are addicted to, they are still an addict and still need something to be addicted to. Doesn't necessarily have to be what they were originally addicted to, they just need something to obsess over to escape from normal life. Once the physical addiction is gone, the psychological addiction that got them there in the first place is still alive. That's why people often relapse because once they are clean they sit around and try to be normal when their addictive personality just wants to do something to escape. That's why I believe the best thing for an addict is another (healthy) addiction. Something else to help them escape the monotony of everyday life and make them feel alive. I think that's why you see a lot of addicts transitioning to the bodybuilding lifestyle because you absolutely have to be somewhat of an addict to maintain this lifestyle. The amount of time it consumes and the amount of energy put into it requires an unnatural amount of obsession which is perfect for addicts who need something to obsess over.

Would you say my theory is accurate?
