Newb to anabolics looking for some general info.....

[Nongan]

So as of right now, I am not even considering taking steroids. I'm 16, 5'11" and around 163 pounds, so i've got a long ways to go before I even need to consider it.

Now that i've got that out of the way......Eventually, maybe in 6-8 years, I may consider taking steroids. I would like to start learning now, so when the time comes, I don't jump into it, and seriously regret it later on. So basically what I'm looking for is a good site/thread that explains alot of the basics of steroids. I've looked through the stickys, and it answered some of my questions, but i still have some like i have no clue what to do for a cycle, what kind of anabolics are most effective, major side effects, kind of gains to expect, etc. etc. So if anyone could provide me a link/explain some of this basic info, I'd greatly appreciate it (Sorry if this has been asked before, I used the search, but didn't find much of what i was looking for).

Did you read the stickies?

first, let me say that i find it *highly* doubtful that you'll wait 6-8 years if you are overly concerned with gaining as much knowledge right now as you seem to be. that being said, i would look at meso-rx.com as an introduction.

also, i would recommend shifting your focus to understanding all the intricacies of diet and nutrients (because i sincerely doubt you already have an in-depth understanding of nutrition). you'll find that this will be invaluably more beneficial to both your short-term and long-term goals than reading about "what to do for a cycle, what kind of anabolics are most effective, major side effects, kind of gains to expect, etc".

What Narc said.

When I was 16 I was thinking about it and I said I wouldn't do it until I was 21. That idea lasted for about 6 months. :study:

hm, ok, i'll check that site out, thanks. And I *have* thought about taking steroids before, but have always decided against it. As of right now, I wanna wait a good while, but if I *do* decide to take them earlier, I want to know full well what I'm getting into, so I don't regret anything later in life.

And your correct, I don't have an indepth understanding of nutrietion. I have the basics, eat 500-1000 calories more than you burn per day, 1-1.5g protein per body weight, etc. but there is still a ton I could learn, which is why I look over the diet & nutrietion forum all the time :D
