My natty timeline

[krazydave7]

I took the advice from the mods in this forum as well as gym rats at the gyms I have trained at and trained natty until I reached my natural peak.

I started out in 2008 6'3" 165lbs and in May this year I was 211lbs. Contest weight was 188.2lbs on June 11.

I know most guys in this forum are massive and under 6 foot, but Im VERY proud of my gains. Not too shabby for a scrawny guy that had spinal surgery in 2005.

Looking good man - so you think you've reached your natural peak? How old are you? Do you plan on running a cycle soon?

Awesome job!

Your hard work looks like it really paid off, looking great.

I'm 25, and yes I think I'm close enough. I'm competing in the Ronnie Coleman in April so I'm about to start my 160 day cycle. Im stoked to see the gains!

Awesome man - can't wait to see your progress! I am 24 and plan on waiting until next year too. Good luck bro!

Nice work dude - you did a hella good job getting ripped. Although....IMO you are nowhere near your natty peak - If you really want to find that, you need to concentrate on diet.

But that's not a prereq for crossing to the darkside. You'll make faster gains for sure - just make sure you stay healthy and do your blood work before and after. And be sure to get your PCT early - you never know,you may abort the cycle early due to unknown conditions (usually personal stuff but sometimes sickness like flu, etc.) Just dont wait til the last minute to order it. and dont take it lightly - my natty test plummeted after my first cycle and my PCT was half assed - should have been better prepared.

One more thot - on cycle your nutritional needs will be way greater - so be prepared for that too so you make the most of it.
