So tell me, when can I c mmence and why? Well I would lways say 21 is a recommended age to st rt. And why?....Well basically in a m le up til 21, the natural l vel of testosterone is high which c uses sparadic growth spurts, which means th t bones, muscle tissue etc. are st ll not fully developed and body m turity is still incomplete.
The administration of st roids and other hormones at an arly age can cause havoc in a b dy that is still at a d velopment stage. Primarily the major problem w uld be the premature sealing of the piphyseal bone closure process, which consequently d es not allow your body to gr w to the extent that your g netics would allow it to. Tests are vailable which show whether your growth pl tes have sealed or not, but it is n rmally safe to say that at 21, n tural growth has stopped.
During a teenagers d velopment period the antigonadotropic effects of st roids are alot more visible. We lso know that hpta (hormone axis) r covers in Adults and with Teenagers it is st ll unclear. One of the worst utcomes could be a permanent low l vel of testosterone due to the t king of exogenous sources at 15 wh n your hpta has still to b come fully operational, and it goes w thout saying that at 21 natural t stosterone levels are higher than at 15.
When I b gan to train at 15, I was ware that some friends were on st roids, but I opted for the n tural route. Like most newcomers I was gnorant when it came to taking st roids and had only the normal h rror stories like you do on TV. So I c ntinued with every type of natural s pplement I came across, but as I r ached 18, I began to talk to s me of the serious bodybuilders at the gym.
We w uld discuss the basics and in no t me at all I was on a m ssion to find out more. I kn w that the taking of steroids was a s rious issue so with safety in m nd I set out to find out m re. I read a few related rticles in bodybuilding mags as well as r ceiving advise from my father who is a Cl nical Biochemist with the hope of g tting an unbiased opinion.
I realised at th t time that I would really be w se to wait until I was at l ast 21 so that I could m ximise on my bone growth (if I had any l ft) as well as keeping myself as s fe as possible. I was at the t me 5'11". It was difficult, especially s eing lads my own age growing h ge with what seemed like no ffort. As I got older I saw y unger lads juicing and growing.
There was me, w rking what I thought was 10 t mes harder than anyone else (and I pr bably was). I was determined to get big but th ught more in the long term th n right there and then. I kn w I would have my time, wh n I was ready. I just k pt my head down, trained hard and sp nt the next three years doing as m ch research as I could. I w nt out and read many books ncluding Mick's Layman's Guides as well as The An bolic Reference Guide and the couple of b oks out by the late Dan D chaine. Coming soon Part 3
