Gear theory. . .
Well, I have had so many conversations with people about why they don't grow etc. but there are usually only a few reasons. . .
not eating enough. . .not sleeping enough. . .not training properly. . .and supps . . . BUT, I always say there are three catagories of people when it comes to how well they react to the gas (in general) as it is a bit more varied than just 3 lumps. . . catagory 1. receptor freak. . .can take 300mg of primo a week and turn into a freak. . .downfall of this type is usually they get sick really easy from taking gear and can never maximize what they take . . .awsome receptors but the rest of them just falls apart.. .just my observations. . . catagory 2. .. middle ground. . .good receptors, makes great gains but has to take a medium to high dose to get good results. .rest of his physiology can take a pounding and he never gets sick. .ie. how many times have you hear the "I was three weeks in and I got sick and had to stop thing. . ." you will never hear a catagory 2 say that! THis is the best catagory to fall in, IMHO catagory 3. . .non receptor . . .can take 3 grams test a week and not gain a pound. . .not the best catagory to fall into. . . This is obviously not medical science based (DUH!) but in my modest amount of years being in the bbuild scene I have seen these three catagories in abundance and thought I would put it out there. . .it may answer a few guys questions on how they react to the gear. keep safe CG

I think it's safe to say I'm in type 1...
I got sick during week 5, couldn't eat anything... Most terrible feeling, brother.. I think if I didn't get sick, I'd be where I wanted right now.. There's always PCT..

CG, what do yuo mean by sick. Do you mean gear flu or something else like real problems? I never get gear flu and only get modest gains so I think I am between 2 and 3.

My best friend is a definate type 3. This guy took 150mg tren ed and 200mg test prop ed with 7iu's GH and 50mg ed dbol on his SECOND cycle and didn't gain an ounce, LOL. I can vouch for his diet and his gear and I know he went to the gym at least a few times a week. He should have gotten SOMETHING from all that.
No gains and no sides. |

I'm somewhere between catergory 1 and 2....I don't get sick, but I can make great gains on very small amounts of gear.

What is the sickness you all are talking about? Something caused by the gear, or just an everyday illnes.

As in kidney problems, liver can't take it. .joints fall apart. . .and get sick like the flu or stomach problems a lot . . .usually a combo.
ie, when they hit the doc for blood screen everything is thru the roof and they hurt all over.

How about reduced flexibility? When I'm on......i just don't get it.....I turn into a stiff board. It seems as though my tendons/ligaments/muscle all become really bound up, no amount of strectching can help. I need to go for Active Release Therapy once a week.
My lower back is the worst(especially when I get over 220 lbs), I wonder if it's my kidneys.....what does kidney pain feel llike?

Cananda Gold, is that common with a lot of people on low doses. I am fixing to go on a cycle of 400mg of test, 400mg of eq, and 20mg of dbol a week. I will run the test and eq for 10 weeks then the dbol for 5 weeks. I hope I dont have any problems. First cycle to by the way.
Once this did happen. I took a shot of sustanon 250, Organon, and that night I drink 5 beers with a tylenol 3 pill. I woke up that morning feeling jittery and nervous. I tried to eat but threw up. Then the next day, I woke up and felt like I had no appetite. So I didn't take another shot after that. Was this because of the steroids, or because I mixed in the pill and beer? |

I guess I fall between 2 and 3, I was wondering my receptor count myself. I am a non responder primarily to legal things, then again normal doses wont work for someone my bodyweight to start with.
I'm ~234 pounds and doing my first gram a week test cycle currently, as for most people - THEY DONT KNOW HOW TO EAT.

Due to increased strength a lot of people will lift past what the rest of their body can take and if they have any imbalances this is when they show up. . .if you have low back pain be sure that it is your low back that is the reason for the pain. .IT USUALLY IS NOT YOUR BACK that creates the problem. . in most cases it is tight hip flexors, glutes and hams (if you are a big squatter or leg press guy etc.) and other stuff that cause your lower back to give up and say "I can't fight those big bastards (the psoas etc.) anymore. .they are to much for me". . .then you get a blowout doing something stupid like leaning over to brush your teeth in the morning. aaargh!

CG you got a point....my hip flexors are extremely tight!
It's even hard for me to do leg presses on the machine. It looks as though I am going to have to stretch a whole lot more.

Try this one . ..
put a pillow under one knee and keep that leg out behind you while you put your other leg in front with your knee bent at 90 degrees. . . point the back toe out behind! then keep yourself upright and really press down and thru the hip on the side that the leg is back on. . .you will really stretch the psoas and it will be a bit painful at first but work up to holding it for 2 min each side. .I do this morning and night and it has helped me get back to almost 100% along with my magic therapy guy. . . also, put the seat on the leg press back as far as it will go . . .this will help (makes the exercise harder too!) keep safe CG

I am #1 I think. Took only 500mg of sust and 300mg of deca for my last cycle (4th one) and gained over 25lbs. Liver levels are always ok, However, My joints are shit (especially when I come off) and my good cholestrol is very low (bad cholestrol is low also though).

If you could put it in percentages, where do people fall into each category? I hope the odds aren't in my favor to land in #3.
