I’m 19 myself and I was close to take steroids not too long ago. I already informed myself about what to take and already looked at studies and even had them in my shopping card at one point. Social media is not so much the problem that it influences me directly, it’s much more the people around me who think you have to be 220 pounds lean and jacked. I’m much more confident taking my shirt off but people saying “you skinny” or “this and that guy is so much bigger and better then you” really hurt when you hear it too often cause I’m really giving my best. Why am I not on gear now? It’s because of people like you who do videos like that and because of my ex bf who always complemented me for my physique and also another boi a few days ago who liked how I look and said I’m “hot”. It’s people like you and them that always get me back on track so thank you, really

@@juliusfahlbusch3168 The way social media feeds are engineered, will often target your insecurities. The way we consume media is often negative focused, or basically risk aversion. Rather than viewing positive things, you're more likely to view things you AREN'T or that you can't achieve etc. You're slowely feeding yourself unrealistic goals and over times your views get warped. It's never a quick process and usually takes a bit of time, but it's insanely effective and it's why social media can be so ridiculousely lucrative. Especially impressionable teenagers, they are already insecure in who they are, they're trying to find themselves in the world, so they're really easy to convince.

Sometimes for monetary reasons. When you’re jacked, you’ll more likely gain more followers on social media. More people are gonna buy your workout programs. You’ll have a better chance of getting a sponsor like gymshark and some supplement brand.

I've reached my genetic ceiling once in my lifetime when I was around age 26 after lifting for around 10 years. It is hard to do. As an advanced lifter you have to be really in tune with your body to know when to change things up here and there to keep making small gains over time as it feels like you are navigating your way carefully around plateau after plateau. But in doing so I got way bigger then I ever thought I could and literally no one believed I was natural lol

[@colleenfenwickdutcher]

Another great video! I’m a 35 year old female and I never considered taking steroids, but when I was in my teens and early twenties I suffered pretty hard from an eat dis. (Not sure if I can say the whole thing without getting flagged?) and thought very often about taking diet pills. But thankfully I was able to realize that I didn’t want to deal with side effects then or for my future self just to be skinny. And the real B of the thing is looking back at pictures of myself then when I was really suffering with my ED and having my mindset that I do now, I was actually skinny! I just needed to weight train and I know it would have helped my mental health tremendously! We didn’t have social media as intensely as we do now when I was really suffering, but we had magazines and shows and movies. Especially the 90s and early 2000s super skinny appeal. So I can definitely see the appeal some of these young guys and gals are dealing with. It does make me sad to hear how young they are and they’re willing to shave some time off of their lives just to look bigger/more muscular. Especially the one kid who is about 21 and he said he would be good checking out by 70. I hope that as he ages his mindset shifts because as you get older, 70 really isn’t THAT old. I don’t have children of my own, but my 15 year old niece is basically like my daughter and I want to be around as long as humanly possible to spend as much time with her as I can, and as she gets older if she has a family of her own I want to spend time with them. Being healthy is the main goal for me now. I no longer have the desire to be “skinny” like I did during my ED time, but now I want to be strong and healthy. I want to be able to continue to care for my grandparents who are 93 and 88 and be able to lift them when needed (like I almost had to do with my grandmother the other day when she fell), help with things for my parents and mother-in-law. And be as active as I can be with my 15 year old niece running around like she likes to do. I want to be able to keep up! I hope the ones that don’t want to take steroids because of the side effects continue to not want to take them, and I hope the ones considering taking them or are already taking them reconsider. 🖤

you people will never understand why i start using it and what i felt, too much focus on health issues but not focusing on issue i am having right now.(That kid who want to die at 70, i agree with him the issues i had in my 20s should have killed me faster than these steroids , i am 40 years old now and proudly say i am on steroids and they changed by life for good) So give T users a space to talk about it don't evil-ize it too much that we just decide to stop talking about it and what we really feel. its shame to see people being hesitant to answer but taking steroids

@@conormayweather5474 yes there is definitely something wrong with taking test wtf. Where are you hearing this from. If you take test from a young enough age(before 30 at least) your balls will shrivel up and your body will stop telling the testes glands to produce testostorone naturally. Some people may have to take external testostorone for their entire lives and struggle with erectile dysfunction. Dont fucking take test unless your doctor says you need it.

Its not just that but also culture around it. I saw a guy on Instagram saying he was working out for 7 years. He had great arms, abs and shoulders but his pecs were super weird and small. My instant thought was that he has weird anatomy but overall its good. Man was i not prepared for that comment section..... EVERYBODY was piling up on him that he was just not working out at all, how crappy his training is etc. Its not just influencers, culture has to change around what a good body is.

Yeah. Good blood results only mean that at the moment when the blood was taken the things that were tested looked good. It’s neither a guarantee that it will stay like this nor does it show if something else is wrong. And often it’s already too late when people finally realize something is wrong. It’s scary how little informed some people are of the risks they take.

[@Oskawano]

This video hits me really hard. I'm almost 40 now and I never really saw taking steroids as a path to getting the physical looks I wanted but could not achieve. However, I have considered it many times due to actually having low test on my bloodwork below the normal range and being unable to break these cycles of depression, low self confidence, and litany of other mental health problems that come with having low test. Being in therapy, getting treatment for other problems, getting other kinds of treatments for depression and poor self image and nothing is really working. It's really difficult to struggle with the fact that this might be something that I genuinely need.

21 year old trained for 1 year natural, starts doing steroids, "i don't mind taking a bit off my life, rather be strong and get to 70, than 90 and decrepit". Bro if you take for 70 years you're not going to get close to that age, and if not, then you're not trading strength for age, as when you stop, you're not really stronger when your hormones do not help you anymore. It's crazy that so many steroid users rationalize because they imagine they are gonna live for 100 years without, and steroids will only take a couple of "bad" years off in the end of their life, bro that's not how it works, getting a blood clot in the brain at 27, dying from liver or kidney failure at 32, or getting a massive heart attack at 44 is not anything like you imagine now is it? Waking up from a coma at 34 to live the rest of your life as a vegetable with major brain damage is not like this..

Your ending thought hit home so hard man. For the past 2 years it's the most serious I have been about weight training, tracking macros and trying to build a body that's gonna last me a while all while trying to aesthetically please my personal insecurities. I have for most of my late teenage to adult life been intermittently in and out of the gym and weight training/bodybuilding and had younger childhood friends do small cycles and to be honest I was never tempted or been curious about steroid use, but there is definitely that voice inside that is very easily influenced that would whisper "hey man, just do ONE small cycle, come on" and thankfully I have the example of my father to guide me. He's 62 and still lifts and looks great, he's the one that got me in the gym in the first place and he would say these words like gospel to me "Josh, the cool part of this is to actually push yourself as far as you can go. Aesthetics come and go, strength comes and goes, but what's in your heart stays and just think how amazing it would be to know what you could physically achieve without gearing up?" and those words are somewhat of a Mantra for me now. I have a daughter now, seeing all of these young bodybuilders passing away because of heart complications or cardiac complications really reassures me to want to stay the natural route, not just for me, but so my little girl also has a father who's healthy and can inspire her the way his father did him. To push forward always and to do things the right way. To know that there are dark days but with some resilience and a bright disposition you can get through things. Your videos are always inspiring Will. Thank you always!
