      well you have come to the wrong place to talk someone out of steroids. For the most part people here are Pro steroids... all i can say is have him come here and learn how to do it safely before he jumps in and messes himself up.

      I am guessing at that weight he has not even been lifting all that long.

      It'd be pretty dumb of him to start taking steroids when he hasn't even worked out regularly for a while. Your body can only grow so fast, and for the first while the steroids arn't going to make a difference.

      Default his natural test levels

      should still be quite high, so he should grow very easily when he hits the weights. First, start lifting weights at a gym; no cardio; Second, eat, eat, eat; I think sumo wrestlers only eat once or twice a day and then binge, protein shakes and what not. Third, in about 4 years when he has maxed out naturally, look us up.

      Like all of life, "YOU DON'T GET SOMETHING FOR NOTHING" same with training, period, end of story.

      Once he realizes that, he might finally get something.

      Good Luck

      It's always a tough one, hate to see people get hopes up and fail, yet that is how most learn

      Oh he will most definitely gain bro, the problem is without an foundation he'll lose everthing a couple of weeks after discontinuation of steroids. That will most likely depress him and he will also mostly incurr some type of injury from his muscles growing faster than his tendons and ligaments. That being said tell your friend since he's new to resistance training he could probably put on 10-15 lbs in a couple of months natty, assuming diet is on.

      People that have busted their asses in the gym and reached their natural physical limit are the only people that should consider using steroids. Steroids should not be used as a shortcut around hard work.

      I know so many people that use tons of steroids and are not even as big as what they could attain naturally. The reason is because they rely completely on steroids – without steroids they couldn’t gain an ounce.

      If you can’t grow naturally then you haven’t learned the fundamentals and you have no business using steroids.

      Gear is only a tool that should be used very wisely.

      Diet and training is Key.

      Disipline and Dedication is a must!

      You have to have your shit together before you start fuckin with your body. Like what Drenton said, need to have the fundamentals down at the least.
      Do, or Do Not, There Is No Try!
