Diet is 60%, training is 30%, and supplementation is 10% of progress... So, you need to get the higher percentages down first... and a lot of ppl consider pro hormones to be steroids... or at least precursors to them...

But that 10% makes a huge differnts, And yeah your right about that but does it still have the long term side effects? no.

I'm 17.


Here's what I would do:
Get yourself some bulk citrulline malate, arginine akg, beta alanine, caffeine, and micronized mono.
Then make your own preworkout drinks. If you get it in bulk it'll last you a long time and with this combo you'll get killer pumps and good strength increases. Maybe throw in some bcaas in there if you're cutting.

Other then that just use a good whey + oats after workouts and maybe casein before bed.

All you really need at 17 is lots of food though.

lol (@ the incorrect rhetorical question u asked)... they may... prohormones are a relatively new thing... they can have the same immediate side effects, so who's to say they dont have the same long-term sides?  Since they're new, we dont know what will be happening to the ppl taking them later down the road...

and at 17, you're definitely too young to be using them anyways.

Ohh I missed this post. Prohormones have the same side effects as steroids, they just need to be converted but the end result is the same. And there aren't really many prohormones on the market anymore anyway, most are steroids.

But whatever I gave you advice on what you can take at your age, but you can take whatever you want it's your body. Just don't come crying back because you've grown a set of tits and need to take viagra to get a hard on.

Well I'm sorry  I didn't know but I'm new And I didnt know... and hey who knows they might not have the same side effect never know it's still knew. But I'll still stick to the basic's, diet, and workout.

They may not, but just think about it... 1) they are precursors to steroids... 2) They have the same short term side effects... they more than likely have the same long term sides.. it just makes sense...

And muscle milk has casein protein, which is a slow-digesting protein, whereas whey is a fast-digesting protein.

well they do sort of....the musclemilk breaks down really slow, so its optimal for bedtime use. the whey breaks down very quickley and gets to your muscles fast, so it is the best type of protein to use post workout

I had a talk with two my friends in my first period, One who is a huge and lifts 300 but hes got no fat, and the other one is a wrestler for the school, and goes to state and wins. They Know some stuff and they said If anything I should be taking amino acid supplements, creatine/cellmass, glutamine, and protein. Also they said that if i wanted I could take testisterone booster, Becasue what it does is it lowers estrogen level and that makes you gain? Something like that? Also they said most wanna be roid pills dont work, the only ones that really work is the injections.  And I'll talk more about it with them but just figure you guys know more than they do, there only 17 and doing this for only 3 years but I may throw this out there but would methyl 1-d be good to take at my age of 17.
Methyl 1-D HighLights:
 
  • Extreme Gains in Strength and Size
  • Skyrocketing Testosterone Levels
  • Increased Muscle Mass
  • Supercharged Sex Drive
  • Increased Fat Loss
  • No Gyno Or Estrogen Effects – due to the estrogen blocker
  • No Hair Loss – because we block DHT
  • Ramped up Metabolism and Thermogenesis
  • Greater Conversion of Glucose to Energy rather than Fat.
  • Incredible Sense of Power That Comes from a Boost in Testosterone
  • No Gyno Or Estrogen Effects – due to the estrogen blocker
  • No Hair Loss – because we block DHT
  • Ramped up Metabolism and Thermogenesis
  • Greater Conversion of Glucose to Energy rather than Fat.

    Well it sounds like they're right or some things and wrong on others.
    Testosterone boosters work by reducing estrogen, yeah that's true. ai's like novedext xt will boost test by inhibiting aromatase or the conversion of test into estrogen.
    They're right about taking creatine aminos, etc.
    They're wrong about "wanna be roids" not working. If you know what to look for you can get powerful stuff, like superdrol which will acctually get you more muscle faster then injectables.

    About methyl1d, it's weak stuff. Mostly just dhea and an ai. Legal gear came out with this stuff because of the prohormone ban.
    It might give you 4-5lbs and a bit of strength, but so could a good creatine product. So honestly I don't think it's worth it to be messing with it at 17 at all, because it will only lead you to stronger and stronger stuff way before you're ready. Remember that it can stunt your growth and cause some sides like acne.

    But I can tell you want to take something more hardcore, so I would say before you buy that look into
    x-factor. People gained like 10lbs on it and it's nonhormonal. Also m-stak and activate extreme.

  • I tried Methyl 1-D, Liquid Masterdrol, the Growth Hormone Secretogue (sp?) and the whole LG Sciences Stack. I honestly didnt get jack **** off of it. The Liquid Masterdrol is a decent pre-workout supp. But nothing that a NO product couldnt do for you. I disliked Methyl 1-D.

    I also used Methyl Masterdrol from LG before the ban and it completely tore up my liver. Sad thing was I was taking a lot of Milk Thistle as well.
