I wish it was like the 90s Dorian Yates in the shadow hiding his physique until he revealed it on stage not doing it for some gay guy on Instagram to private mail him or some slutty women to private mail him times have changed something that’s harder to cope with when you are tunnel vision on becoming the biggest freak you can you don’t want these messages the only messages you want is motivation to improve and feedback from people who are honest and worth listening too
if it was your goal or dream go for it but doint expect to be payed or sponsored with clothing, supplements, food and gear . is your choice . In this moment to compete on amateur you have to pay 300 euros for each category , 90 euros for painting . You also pay trips and hotel . Before that you have 12 to 156 weeks prep were you pay all your food, massages, gym, and also all your gear . Just the HGH to be a pro for 16 weeks , lets put 10ius per day of pharma is around 2k per month x 4 months 8k just for hgh . Worth all this money to compete?????
