Starting a Cycle? Get the Facts First

 

By George Touliatos, MD

 

Q: What facts do I need to know before starting a cycle? 

 

A: Before start using gear, you have to reach your genetic potential as a natty bodybuilder. Otherwise, you won’t get the most out of the gear. Plus when the cycle is over, your physique won’t have the basis to move on. You also need to undergo certain biochemical labs in order to assess the metabolism of basic internal organs including the heart, liver and kidneys. Then you’ll need a reliable source, preferably pharmaceutical-grade steroids.

 

You can’t start using steroids if you don’t eat five solid meals daily with enough protein. You can’t start taking gear if you don’t train four to five times weekly with weights. You can’t have expectations if you eat junk and smoke, drink booze and stay up at nights.

 

You need to do regular cardio to keep your heart healthy. Eat organic food that is cooked healthy – boiled, steamed or baked, but not fried. Salt, sugar and white flour are not an option.

Overtraining is also not acceptable, as muscles are built during test and recovery. Bodybuilding is perhaps the most demanding sport that engages a 24/7-365 lifestyle, full of sacrifices.
