I'm not a newbie to exercise and diet I am pretty well read in nutrition I know what I need to eat.when I need to eat. Not into bro science I believe in cals in vs cals out. Keep it clean and around 1800-2000 for me. Of course count calories as well in just looking to get some info on my first steroid experience.in around 20-25% bf. thanks anyone of course I will lift if I take steroids c'mon now.
Dude, at 6'0" 205 lbs and 2000 calories a day, you're NOT going to be able to pack on mass, it's as simple as that. You need more than double the intake that you have right now. I'll make this simple. Eating for bodybuilding is EXPENSIVE. Tally up just how much it's going to cost you to go to the supermarket and pick up food for yourself to make 5000 calories a day. Eating all that food is difficult, you're not going to be hungry at first, but you will adapt and eventually you'll be able to pack away that food, but at first it will actually be a struggle. Once you have the pieces in place, that is to say, a solid workout routine that is consistent (no skipping workouts unless there is injury), a solid 5000 calorie a day diet (you may need a little more or a little less, but 5000 calories is a good starting point, if you notice you're putting on more fat than you care, you can back down a little) and plenty of rest, your body will grow. 6'0" and 205 lbs is not big, unless it's mostly fat. When I was active duty, at 6'0" and 200, I looked skinny.
There is so much potential to grow naturally, and in the time it takes to grow naturally, you will strengthen the ligaments, tendons, and bones that are going to be carrying the load of your increased weights as you get stronger. Steroids don't make these other parts stronger, just your muscles. Imagine if you were to go onto a cycle with no solid foundation. Sure, as long as you lift and take your steroids, your muscles get stronger, but without those other parts getting stronger, you're risking severe injury, and while you're broken, you sure as hell won't be getting stronger, so you will have wasted that money and effort. If you take these compounds without knowing how they work, you are risking the side effects (some permanent) that you are unfamiliar with.
Taking steroids isn't just a short cut, and most of the folks here believe it isn't meant to be one at all. A common belief (that I think makes perfect sense) is that the reason to take steroids is to push yourself past the point that you're limited to by your genetics. A person that has lifted for years and years and stopped growing because his body just hit its limit of potential might use steroids to go even farther. I'm not saying that you need 20 years of lifting and eating big to be ready for steroids, only you can decide if you're truly ready, but you need to actually consider the reason you want to use them and weigh the risks versus the gains. Right now, with your current diet, and not knowing your training regimen or whether you get adequate rest in between training sessions, I would guess that you won't see very much in the way of gains from using, and those gains would go away after you stop using.
Get that diet on point first. It's going to be boring putting together that diet, and it'll take a while to really come up with a diet that you are interested in, because if you don't find the food appealing, you're not going to want to stick to it. Figure out what works for a 5000 calorie a day diet, split across 6-8 meals in a day, with the right macros for you. Don't worry about protein powders or supplements, you can do all of this with FOOD. Put together that meal plan and go out and buy that food and start eating and lifting and resting. It doesn't have to be a 100% clean diet, but it does need all of the macronutrients that your body will need. You can't go eating cheeseburgers every day or anything like that, but the occasional treat is fine, you're not going for a competition body or anything at this point. Record what you eat honestly, myfitnesspal.com is pretty handy for that since it has the caloric values and macronutrients for most foods already punched in so it can calculate that for you when you plug in what you've eaten. If you eat something that's not in there, punch the numbers in from the labels. Remember, this isn't a sprint, it's a marathon, you're going to be in this for the long haul if you start
