One of the cadavers in the cadaver lab operated by the school where I studied was a young (late 30s) male who died of a heart attack, the rest were all well above 65. The ventricles (spaces needed to pump blood) in this man’s heart had shrunk because his heart tissue had grown so large after using steroids. It’s important to know that steroids affect all muscles including the heart. People don’t usually consider the complications of prolonged use.

I took a ten week course of testosterone at a slightly higher dose than therapeutic (something like 175mg in a weekly IM injection). The most surprising aspect was psychological. I was 40 but I felt like a teenager again. Even at this dose, muscle mass noticeably increased. Fortunately didn't lose my hair or suffer any long term problems resuming normal T production. That risk increases with dose and duration on steroids. It only makes sense to use it at either low dose or short duration.

You can be a pumped soy boy. Many professional athleats are.

I love it how they use soyboy as insult when soy is literally full of protein

They basically just heard that soy has phytoestrogens and that was all they needed. So now they think that eating literally anything with soy in it actively feminizes you.

How awesome that would be for our trans sisters to just eat soy to get the gains they need. But no, they gotta go through a huge hassle of injections and pills etc
