I’m done with orals (40+)

[Brock456]

I don’t know why but I just don’t respond the same way as I did when I was in my 20’s and early 30’s. I can remember taking 100mg of dbol at times and 100mg of var and the only side effect I got was bloody noses from prob high blood pressure.

Does the body change? Has the gear changed?

Superdrol - I ran pre ban when it was legal and loved it. I tried it a couple years ago and lasted 2-3 days after the lethargy killed me.

Anadrol - I recently tried the injectable version at 50mg and had to stop after 2 days bc it crushed my appetite and caused digestion issues.

Anavar - I recently tried at 25-50mg and it made me so lethargic I couldn’t even get out of bed.

That’s just my experience. I know from other threads that others 40+ have the same issues.

But I think after my 2 most recent runs, I’m officially done.

Also, I was drinking plenty of water, tudca, NAC, etc while taking them.

I can still do them but i keep away mostly

I love winie and anadrol when im ripped though

Is give a look so unique i not know how to describe it

Superdrol i love but i agree i tried many brands and nothing feel the same as beastdrol when was legal

This is something that several guys who are over 40 on this board have complained about

Im 48 and the opposite happens to me, big rush of energy, focus and libido even with just 10 MG. 50 will make me bounce off the walls.

Maybe your liver or kidneys have just had too much of a cumulative dose and this is their way of saying no mas.

I only do 4wks on at a time, usually towards the end of a bulk, never had an issue

Var is wonderful for me...I'm 60

 

[Brock456]

You guys that can still use them are lucky. It does give a good look. Especially anavar. They just destroy my body and kill my appetite. I finished the 2 day run of drol a couple days ago and my digestion and appetite are still messed up.

I'm done with them for life, having a liver adenoma removed will do that.

Chemical structure of drugs doesn't change.
My body/metabolism at 40 wasn't the same as when i was 20. At 60 it wasn't the same as 40. Heck at 66 it isn't the same as 60.
But heck that is probably just me, we are all different. I am sure many never change!

I had to retire them also. Damn near every one of them turned my stomach into a lava pit and taking omeprazole isn’t healthy. Plus they turn the oil glands in my face on full blast unlike injectables. However, halo is still in my arsenal and it doesn’t cause those issues for me so I love it.

I’ve always attributed to Superdrol “feeling” different and us feeling better on it to all of us being muuuuuch younger when we could legally get it lol

No doubt SD can act differently when you are older and as we age what used to work before may turn nasty later.

I'm mid 50's, stopped orals years ago. I don't miss them, may throw a drol in here and there for a workout. I do well enough with oils I don't feel a need to throw orals into the mix.

56 and still use some sparingly.

• Superdrol I don't really see a use for. Others can do the same job with less impact. Maybe some use it a couple days before the stage for some last minute glycogen, but not recommended.
• Anadrol 50 has always been a favorite and I still like it. Will run it as a pre-workout now and then. Pre-workout dosing is to keep frequency and dosing moderate and give me some androgenic drive in the gym.
• Anavar I have no issue with.
• Winstrol is just for prep.
• Halo has no use - same category as Superdrol for me.
• Turinabol is fine.
• Dianabol is inefficient

Dianabol impacts liver and lipid values whereas anadrol doesn't ironically.
Also never any GI or appetite problems on any of these.

Welcome to my world lol. You won't really miss them, maybe at first you will.

Ive experienced the same thing as I have been getting older. I believe it has something to do with Liver function and other organ related issues. I agree with you guys though. Its almost not even worth it anymore. SD will always be one of my favorites just now its only used for PWO. The rest of them really dont appeal to me for any sort of REAL cycle at full length.

I read an article on aging a while back. It cited non-linearity and two inflection points. One at 35-45ish and another 65-70ish from memory. Anyway the first one specifically hit alcohol metabolism and recovery (not necessarily liver) and I don't know a single person who won't vouch for that one and aging. I'd likely assume oral aas could fall in here.

I can relate about to the same as you mentioned. If Im taking an oral, I'll usually take it at bed time and can still get results. Ex: 10mg Superdrol after last meal as it has a decently long half life. Been Years since I've used Tbol and seems kinda tempting since its more common nowadays. Also been years with var as well. Was going to ask how var affects your lipids?

 

[Splitzz]

Most orals are only PWO right now. Anavar gives me no issues, and bloodwork remains intact for the most part.
Try to stay away from them but will implement once in a while.

I miss the size, strength, and fullness but like I said it’s not worth it feeling miserable and counterproductive if it affects my appetite.
