How do you guys get your wife to be ok with gear??

[DuRsT]

I'm assuming some of you guys aren't married, and some of your wives know about the risks that you're taking.

I have brought the subject up a couple of times and her response has always been "you better not touch that shit".

I don't want to lie to my wife.....I know I could just walk in and say I'm doing this no matter what you think and she would end up semi-ok with things but it would cause relationship issues I don't want to deal with as we have worked hard to get on the right track and things are really good. However I REALLY want to start cycling in 2012 to build the body I have always wanted.

So I guess my question is....how did you guys go about getting your better half to be ok with running gear?

The same way you get women to agree to anything, Domestic Violence. Lol. That was a joke.

Mine may not like it 100% but she deals with it. education is key because thru only know what they hear in media.

I agree with User, it is all about education. There is so much bullshit put out in the press about the negatives that it can be tough to win them over. I am fortunate with my wife, we have a great relationship and I wouldn't lie to her about it anyway. She trusts me and knows that I wouldn't do anything without properly researching it to begin with.
When the issue was first brought up it was met with a very similar response to yours but now the outcome is very different.

Mine hated it... I did it anyway, and told her to leave it alone. Once she started seeing the results, and how others noticed she was pinning my left glute for me.

then again this post just made me realize that my girl may be different than most... we did go to a titty bar last night.

Before i started juicing i did research for probably 6 months, sitting in front of the computer for hours on end. She was well aware of what i was researching, and wanted to know the risk vs reward. It came to the point where i could answer every question or concern she had with scientific facts. Her only request was that i get blood work under the supervision of a doctor, which i have only done once in many years. Now its just part of my lifestyle she accepts.

Glad i am not married, ask me no questions, i'll tell you no lies. Besides, i heard that variety is the spice of life ...

I've been thinking about this a lot too - running my first AAS cycle in January and not sure how to break it to her.

She walked in when I was pinning IGF-1 pre-workout and almost had a heart attack.

YES!

Educate them. Chances are they know about as much as the media does about them - which is basically next to nothing.

After that she'll be much more understanding.

My wife trust my judgement and it helped a lot when I started on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) and when I told her that I wanted to run more and why she was fine with it, she does all of my shots. When I decided that I wanted to try deca I just explained how it could help with my knee and as a plus help get me back to where I was before and she was fine with it.

I definitely hear you guys on the education thing, I have been working on it via my upcoming PH cycle which requires a lot of the same things such as diet, dosing, post cycle therapy (pct), etc.

She didn't want to hear about PH's at first though, so maybe I'm in a state of progression here.

I have been researching gear, side effects, best cycles, and post cycle therapy (pct) for a few months now and am pretty close to having a sit-down talk with her to let her know what I would like to do so we can kind of talk it out. I almost want to prepare something so she can look over things for herself.

She will almost always let me do what I want when I want, but this one will be tough. It would be best if she was on-board because I would prefer that she do the pinning in the glutes for me

Be honest with her. Watch the movie Bigger, Faster, Stronger and educate her about all o the bogus information out there.

Hell, my wife pins me and loves it!

atta boy, best way to tell them!!! and then tell them they will get that thrashing more often and the sessions will be longer and they will jump on board lol

 

[swoleup]

Shit my ex-wife used to pin me all the time. She really got into it, and preferred me to be "on" cycle all the time... Like everyone else said, educate her about AAS and she will probably come around. As hobbies go, it is a good one to pick up and cheaper than a boat or hunting camp..LOL..

And then you bang the shit out her!!

 

[jswole]

Get a script. She doesn't need to know your dosage, just that your doctor prescribed it!

 

[megatron_ed]
