Is the lifestyle hard to maintain amidst other responsibilities such as work and family? I am no where near your level, but have thought about competing someday if only just as an amateur because I find the difficulty fun and a challenge. But even now I have trouble managing my time between work, school, and my training, yet if I do not work I cannot afford the vast amount of food I eat each week or even consider AAS. A typical 12 week cycle (2 compounds, 1 oral, AIs PCT) for me cost around 800 dollars, more if I decided to get bloodwork or tests done. So I must work, usually a little overtime, if I want to do these things, and sometimes it gets in the way of training the way I would like. Do you have a similar experience? Secondly, does your personal life effect your training? Viewing from the outside the sport can come across as selfish and self-centered, and usually upsets family. Simple activities like holidays and eating out suddenly become obstacles to my training. I'd rather maintain my own scheduled dieting regiment sometimes, and going home for holidays it's difficult for me to find a gym. Occasionally, I'll take my girlfriend out on a date, and she'll get upset she's the only one eating ice cream or that I can only eat certain foods. How do you coupe with these changes?
EDIT: I'm sorry I just saw the thread was about doses. I read the first post and it sounded like general questions about what you do though. I hope this is okay though. I've always been more interested in upper level bodybuilder's personal lives. They're normal guys, just a little bigger.
