I would give it at least 5 years, bodybuilding is not a quick results sport. I also started when I was 14, juiced at 20 for the first time. Im now 21 and ready for my second in 1 week!!!

I trained for 6-7 years naturally and what I learned in that time was invaluable. I am glad I waited that long, any earlier and I would not have been mature enough to use the gear to its maximum potential.

About 12 - 13 yrs, here's a little story you might find interesting;
_________________________________________________
I always tell younger guys to wait and do things naturally until they reach their genetic limitations and this is solely based on my personal experience. I have never really told this before so here goes.
Most of you know that I'm 45 yrs old. Well at age 30 or so, I had never touched any iron and weighed in at a whopping 145 lbs. I was sitting at a football game one afternoon when a gust of wind came up and my closest friends brother said to me "you better hold on to something or you'll blow away". Well it sort of hit me then, I was a skinny rail whose sole purpose in life was to get drunk. Shortly after that I got in touch with a personal trainer and took a real interest in bobybuilding. Over the course of the next 5 years I added over 60 lbs to my frame, all naturally. I continued to train this way (naturally) until about 2 years ago when I was diagnosed with low testosterone levels and got prescribed test from my doctor. Then and only then did I seek to get involved with self-prescribed AAS, as I had hit my genetic potential and was kind of on them anyways.
Sure I could have gotten into it all back when I was 145, but where would I be today, without first building a good base to work with ??
You see I know first hand what proper diet, training and rest can do, that's why I advocate waiting until they are older before they start with the juice. That's my story, hope I didn'y bore you all to death. LOL !!

I went three years here, but I had no clue what I was doing. No idea as to protein, or anything remotely related to diet, so I thought that Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (AAS) was kindof the be all, end all ya know. Of course, that was back in the day when those giant dog-food bags of Weider protein with 2500 cals per serving were still selling like hotcakes!

18 years working out on and off, couldn't brake 190 lbs, thats way the off period, then last year I just typed steroids into a search engine and here I am over 200 lbs, just wish I would have done it a little sooner.

I started training at 14 ,and had a bad expierence with ergogenics at the age of 15 (I was way too young ,and dumb to be messing around with DNP ,T3 ,and clen). So I built a good foundation . Developed good training ,and diet habits. Then decided to hit the Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (AAS) a few years later. Im 21 now.
I really think the right time to start Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (AAS) is a personal thing to decide. The right time can really vary from one individual to the next. I think whats most important is knowledge ,discipline ,and consistency of training ,diet , and supplimentation. Once you have those covered then maybe Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (AAS) can be a usefull tool for you to include in your bodybuilding lifestyle.
