depends on what you're looking to achieve. do you want to be strong or look strong?

what i can say is (which may not be up your street)is that steriods do work if you have a slim/lean frame like myself

They also make you fill with water, and cover your skin in boils and white heads.  :sick: And seriously affect your endocrine system especially if you are under 25.

Do some research and don't folow routines in flex magazine and the like. Those guys are seriously chemically enhanced and can build muscle taking a sh*t.

Sort your diet out and do simple compound exercises that work a few muscles at a time. Get yourself a book called "strenght training anatomy" it shows you exercises and how to do them properly.

Try to do at least 3 days and split the body parts into 2 parts a day.

rule no1 dont f**k with steroids esp if you dont know what you are doing with weights. If you want size, lift heavy increase carb intake (in short).

find a routine and stick to it for a 6 wk cycle then check progress.

Funny you should say that, we've not long sent a bloke to Crown court for dealing that sh!t !

I disagree, if your skinny you need protein and fluid to build muscle and building on "whats not there" is exactly what you will do with a good diet and a good work out plan !
