    Happens to me sometimes by people/friends who have no idea how big proper use of steroids actually makes you. I take it as a flattering compliment. I reassure them that I'd be a lot bigger, and that I am unable to afford it. That usually gets them to leave me alone.

    I get asked sometimes. I've had people on this board accuse me of it, which is kinda flattering even though it's often not meant that way. I choose to take it as a compliment.

    I have been askd that last year, when I was lifting and eating like a fiend.
    My answer was "Dude, I'm natty homes"
    His response was: "Wow, so how long are you at the gym(day/week)?"
    Me: "About 2h/day, 6x/week"
    Him: "Calories?"
    Me: "~4600-4800"
    Him: "Oh" **Walks off to the treadmill** (he's a cardio nut/curl jockey) that doesn't eat enough. :/

    Felt kinda bad because the kid tries. He won't eat though, lol.

    I'm just glad I gain easily as when a former fatty hits the gym, the mass gains are downright GangSTA.

    Ive never been accused but I dont know whats said behind my back either... I would hope that steroids would get me stronger then I am and I dont look cut or anything. If you never knew I lifting you might think i was just a lazy weak slob and I take on more the bulky gorilla appearnce. I think roids make you cut and im not cut... im big but not cut. And like I said, if roids only got me to 300lbs bench press they were some crappy roids.

    ya, me being in high school, and me being able to gain muscle very easily, the steroid question comes up a lot with those skinny bastard curl jockeys, and this is my answer: "ya i usually have injection parties in the lockerroom after school, we share syringes and steroids, u can come if u want." that usually tells them off...

    The owner of the gym that I go to came up and told me one day that there had been numerous heated debates at the juice bar on whether or not I'm on the sauce. He knows I'm natural so he defended me. There is this one guy who asks me every week while I deadlift "Come on man, level with me, what are you on? I won't tell nobody, just level with me". I give him a different answer every week, one week I told him my secret was goat cheese, another time I gave him an hour long dissertation on the benefits of flax seed oil. I used to take it as an insult, well I still do but I have a sense of humor about it now.
    I am often asked by people at the gym "How do I lose fat from my tummy so my abs will show"
    My standard answer: "Get drunk and find yourself a sharp knife"

    A friend of mine has insane genetics for gaining muscle while staying lean. This guy came up to him while we were shooting the breeze and asked him what he was on to achieve that and he told the guy it was bull testicles. The guy actually believed him. I think because he's Mexican the guy must've thought it's some old folk thing. A week later the guy came up saying he couldn't find any bull testicles and asking where to get them. lol

    I've only gotten it from little kids I was playing basketball with. I can't see how anyone, on gear or not, would take it as an insult. I mean sure, they're accusing you of taking an 'easy route' or something to that extent, but isn't the ultimate goal to appear jacked? Who cares how they think you got there, they're jealous either way.

    Pretty often, actually, though I doubt anyone with a little muscle know-how would ever think I was using gear. I'm really cut and have oversized arms; ten to twenty more pounds, and it would be a little more reasonable to wonder if I was juicing. Most people who ask are people who haven't seen me in a while, or people who have no idea what is possible if you work hard, have good genetics, and eat right.
    Don't hate the player. Hate the game.

    that's funny. who the hell would accuse a 150 lb teenager of juicing? the majority of people just don't know anything about lifting, stupid questions are expected.
