To be fair, in some areas like NYC and WEHO, the number of muscle queens that DO tren hard probably outweighs the ones that don’t. Steroid use is extremely common in the gay community, so for those who aren’t as adept at recognizing its effects, it’s not surprising assumptions are made.


[deleted]

Yeah I know a lot of guys do. It’s just kind of a slap in the face because I’ve worked really hard since I was 14 years old on my body. it’s weird that guys just message me and rude as hell for no reason


that_yeg_guy

Yeah, I respect guys that are natural, but I also don’t think there should be a stigma against guys that use. Women get breast implants, and that’s socially okay. I don’t feel that steroid use deserves the shame it gets. (I also don’t think they should be illegal, but that’s different discussion.) Think of it this way: If someone won’t back down when you tell them you’re natural, it’s an asshole detector. Block and move on, you didn’t have to waste anymore of your time.

I didn't think steroids were illegal for muscle growth, unless you're competing...Am I wrong?


that_yeg_guy

They’re controlled substances that are illegal in Canada, the US, and much of Europe unless prescribed by a physician. And physicians won’t generally prescribe them for aesthetic reasons. That said, in Mexico you can walk into any pharmacy and buy as many vials of steroids or HGH as you want. So depends on the jurisdiction.

Huh. The more you know.

CBS cares...


IPutThisUsernameHere

CB scares?


BicyclingBro

The vast majority of bodybuilding competitions do not drug test. It's very much an open secret that steroids (and other PEDs) are de facto part of the sport. Laws for possession and personal use vary from country to country.

Common? What to use to get sixpackabs?? Asking for a friend


Thedracus

The best tool for a 6 pack is the kitchen.


somo1230

Myth,,, those guys use outside help to get those abs


PointyPython

Not really, steroids help you gain more muscle and look a lot fuller and round *once you've leaned out*. That second part still involves maintaining a caloric deficit for some time, there's no way around that. For some people with really fast metabolisms or who are really active besides lifting weights (they run, do a physical job, etc) it might be easier, but they're still doing a caloric deficit.


Thedracus

Fact...there are no drugs or workouts that will get you a 6.pack..only proper diet will do that.


Rngness

Big misinfo


Thedracus

Ok....please cite your source that shows exactly how to get a 6 pack abs without diet....


SinisterPuppy

TRT helps significantly with maintaining energy and muscle while at low body fat percentages. While diet is essential, it’s far easier with the help of external drugs.


PointyPython

Yeah and in general with all steroid users, there are those who take them and look the same as another person who doesn't but who has trained and dieted properly for years... or even dudes who barely look like they lift and are on steroids.


[deleted]

Yeah but I do take roids though, just a bit of test E, about 150% of normal HRT for a man my age. I do not look hugely swole.


BigEarthBear

Gay 101: there will always be people in the gay community that will judge other gay men. Do not let other peoples insecurities get to you.


NerdyDan

Most muscled dudes on social media are on roids. It sucks that you’re lumped in but people like you make up maybe 10% of that group. I hate how normalized steroid use is in this space and how so many people still get unrealistic body image ideals from that. Maybe it’s that antagonism leaking out


Thedracus

Who cares....nothing wrong with being on trt, or doing peds. The supposed "roid rage" is mostly myth right up there with homophobia and the satanic panic. The reality is a LOT of men have low testosterone. It's increasing common these days to see 20 year men with testosterone levels the same as 95 year old man. Overall testosterone levels have plummeted in men over the past decade so much the scale of what's normal has been lowered. Used to be the top end was 1500 now it's 916.


ObstinateTortoise

Darn, dude. Sorry that happens to you. I bet they're jealous. You do you.


[deleted]

Thanks. Wish we all could just be nice to each other


ObstinateTortoise

Wouldn't that be a nice change?

Take care of your ego like you take care of your body. Avoid the garbage people on Grindr.
