I Asked 100 Gym Goers if They'd Take Steroids
#fitness #gym #bodybuilding
"Would you ever take steroids?'
"I'm on steroids."
"Really?"
Ruined that man's day lmao
Will is just gaslighting him. Will is a fake natty.
😂
Is it possible to gains muscle like sam sulek without steroids?
@@KarinEmala No
That’s 95 percent of guys they don’t look like it cause they don’t eat
Temporary gains, life long regrets.
Facts
Well said. Completely messes up the body's balance.
Spoken like someone who truly has no idea on the subject xD
No regrets here! 😝
Life is temporary
I go to the gym to improve my health. Taking steroids would be contradictory, so a big NO for me.
How often do you do serious cardio then? Cuz adding a bunch of muscle.. really doesn't mean much, generally speaking, to your health.
@@SoulMaxxing twice a week, plus I use the bicycle for many of my daily routes.
@@SoulMaxxingdumbest shit ive read today
What about trt for later in life?
😇 👼 😇
It’s so sad to see people say they would be happy to shorten their lives to look good for a few years. People are worth so much more than how they look.
Social Media
You never tried or looked at the health benefits apparently, change your mind.
yeah dude, we need them to live longer for the sake of capitalism. We don’t care how they look!

"he's an ifbb pro and he's natural" i guess people really are gullible
But he's the same nationality as me, so there's no way he's using steroids!!!
Tbh I think Jeff seid turned pro naturally. You can't do it today since the standards are crazy
@@pus915 Jeff Seid wasn't natural in 2011.
There is a very small percentage of natty ifbb pros. More than likely people you never heard of and they’ll never be competing for the Olympia, but they’re out there
@@vanechi Dude seriously? You think his nationality is going to stop him from taking gear? This aint the 60`s , dont you have eyes?
Poor Indian dude. Thinking that IFBB Pro is natural. Hes been completely hoodwinked.
The way he described LA Fitness was SPOT ON.
it's better to be too optimistic over what you can achieve naturally than to be pessimistic about it
@@avy1 both are bad, both lead to body dysmorphia
@@Crazy09starkillorsure but pessimism will cause 18 year olds to hop on gear. Optimists will just think they’re small.
Haha fr 😂
@@avy1 until they snap out of their delusion. That's my point, both are delusions and you would be surprised how fast an "optimist" that is not well informed can be tempted as well.
I feel like this is the dude version of "would you try ozempic" or "have you considered plastic surgery" for women. It really shows how all of us are looks obsessed and social media is killing individuality and self confidence.
Exactly, it’s the same concept. But steroids are demonized while ozempic and surgeries are common topics for women 🤷🏻♂️
@@cirilomedina1474they are insane.
@@cirilomedina1474why wouldn’t it be different though? We know for a fact steroids are unhealthy to the point where studies lead to IQ degradation. Semaglutides have been around and haven’t had drastic negative effects like that

Of the strongest power lifters I know don’t breath that hard between sets when I talk to them.
@@rafmatt1607you must be delusional 😂… nobody I’ve ever seen gasping after a set like that! I’ve only seen juice heads do this, it’s the roid breath gasp!
The needle bin in the gym is crazy I’ve never heard of that
It's required for diabetics and other people with medical issues. It's a suggested OSHA health and safety practice.
PureGym in the uk have them
This one gyn I went to had one in the bathroom. It was literally installed for roid usage because someone kept leaving their needles in the trash.
@Mac-og2hj yeah was gonna say Pure have them, which is good... although why the hell people are pinning at the gym vs home is insane... 😂
It’s wild, but it’s better than people throwing it in the trash and giving employees a nasty infection when they are throwing the bags out.
This video is actually way sadder than I thought.
It was better than I thought, a lot of people looked into the harmful long term effects on the body
Dysmorphia is wild..sad that these kids are feeling this way at their age.
Really is
Dude, this video was so dishonest, and how honest are young people, male or female generally at that age. Most of these kids were regurgitating the general base line premise that all bodybuilders say and we’re just repeating the same shit buzz words that they hear. The black market, statistics and numbers say that 70% of this video is actually on them and lying. The black market numbers don’t support the statistics of how many people said yes and no in this video and wills testimony himself
Lmao off at all of the average looking kids on steroids
Imagine tellings your mrs, "its not my fault, the roids made me gay".
“Was my Blood pressure medication I can get a dr note tone!” 😂…
Bro you’re wild for the dance moves during the sexuality talk with Derek 😂😂😂
Dude seriously 🤣🤣🤣 i saw that and came straight to the comments section
😂😂😂
Imagine getting yolked on steroids just to go work a 9-5 desk job
Nah that's the best circumstance to do it. You gotta committ to the bit of being like that huge guy in the incredibles hunched in his tiny office cubicle.

Worst yet: imagine taking steroids and not getting jacked and just looking like an average dude. Bummer.

He definitely is
Thank you bro
Yeah, but the only reason he's social media feed shows buff guys, it's because hes been searching and clicking on that content. it's not a coincidence
@@Zulay092 no shit Sherlock? He loves lifting, so he looks up lifting content.
It's almost impossible for algorithm driven platforms to look at nuances. So to look up lifting and only pull natty? These algorithms are not designed for that.
Suomi!
One of your best videos to be honest.
More serious and important subjects (and especially this one) fits you well, you're funny and you inspire trust, and now you have the platform, push the Truth for all those young ones who are watching you, may God bless you man.
agree
THIS!👍💯
I was gonna say this too
Did anyone else think the guys saying they are 21 or 22 look like they are in their early 30s?
I'm 36 and look younger than them lol
Deffo mate!
I did.👌
I was exactly thinking the same thing.
I thought it was just me. lol
Social media is poison.
Been looking for this comment, take the like
You are inside one, genius
I started working out way before social media even existed, and I was still tempted by steroids lol
It is
or just think for yourself n stop being so impressionable
The guy on steroids who can barley breath having “gasp” on his shirt is ironic
Only thing this guy runs from is a treadmill.
Also that bro doesn't even have a lot of hair to lose, guess he wants to be bald by the time he is 23.
He sounds like if he got into an argument he might pass out
This guy goes to my gym. He coaches his younger brother who is probably 12-14 years old. He will literally be panting out of breath sitting down on the quad extension machine while his brother does calf raises beside him. I do not think I have ever seen him actually work out but he is always sweaty and out of breath...
Yes gasp and better bodies is a body building brand. He is having trouble breathing because he’s training hard and using the gear to the fullest potential.
I’m 19 myself and I was close to take steroids not too long ago. I already informed myself about what to take and already looked at studies and even had them in my shopping card at one point. Social media is not so much the problem that it influences me directly, it’s much more the people around me who think you have to be 220 pounds lean and jacked. I’m much more confident taking my shirt off but people saying “you skinny” or “this and that guy is so much bigger and better then you” really hurt when you hear it too often cause I’m really giving my best.
Why am I not on gear now?
It’s because of people like you who do videos like that and because of my ex bf who always complemented me for my physique and also another boi a few days ago who liked how I look and said I’m “hot”. It’s people like you and them that always get me back on track so thank you, really
If you train properly for enough years, even if you look "skinny" for the average gym rats, you would still be way hotter and muscular than at least 80% of males
Training for a year at 21 years old and then hopping on a cycle is the dumbest thing I"ve heard this year. My god... Idiotic behaviour.
That one dude said it perfectly, why use roids and put yourself throught it if you dont plan on competing. So many guys shortening their lives just to sit at their 9-5
I used to work with this dude that was doing trt and hgh and looked like crap. He worked at Amazon with me and constantly tried to sell me trt
Sometimes for monetary reasons. When you’re jacked, you’ll more likely gain more followers on social media. More people are gonna buy your workout programs. You’ll have a better chance of getting a sponsor like gymshark and some supplement brand.
And like it or not, being jacked means that you’ll be perceived as having more credibility when it comes to fitness and exercise. Who do you think more people would listen to for fitness advice? A skinnyfat natty who has a PhD in sports science, or a jacked dude with 3d delts and an 8 pack abs?
@@zahinazham you are right in that aspect being on steroids can help you make money on social media or if youre trying to be a pro bodybuilder but you can get plenty of social media followers as a fitness influencer just being natural. you can look amazing natural too
Especially the ones who don’t see any decent results. Blows my mind. Body dysmorphia is a real thing though.
@@bilindabutcher8913 definitely. Especially the more mature audience. But the kids dont look at credentials. They look at physique
You should do a video on people who are 50-70 who have done steroids to see if they regret it. Sad to hear that kid say “I’ll just call it quits at 70 instead of live to 90”
The closer they get to 70, ill bet most will be regretting their decision.
It's sad seeing people past their 70s who basically aren't human anymore.
Bros gonna get to 70. Have multiple health issues and regret his decisions 💀
Shame they’ll be missing out on two extra decades of mental, physical deterioration and social isolation
I think 70 is generous. Many steroid users have died at like 40-50 and some much earlier
I respect everyone being honest about the pressures of social media and honestly everyone of those guys look great!
What you are doing for the every day person is amazing brother. These are by far my favorite videos. Keep up the great work
Asking if you'll consider using steroids to someone who is on steroids is the worst insult ever lol
Is there ANYTHING WORSE than being on roids and looking natural? This has to be as bad as smoking. Zero upsides with all the downsides.
Stupid comment
😂😂100%
Bruh... MOST people on roids look natural... 😂😂😂 A lot of people that use gear don't have NEAR enough knowledge on it, etc. smh. 🤦🏼♂️
I've been getting steroid accusations since I was 16, I didn't start lifting until I was 20 😅 and I was getting even more accusations then. I didn't start gear until 23 and that's actually around the time I stopped getting as many accusations 😂
I can't imagine lifting at all and having people think I'm natty
@@mdrieber Getting what you paid for as a jackass 😂😂
Lots of dudes on here not knowing they have body dysmorphia
Trained for 1 year before turning to gear... this is what true weakness looks like.
I was just thinking that! Just one year?!
Bless that first kid’s heart. At 17 years old, I love that he was honest and made it known how much social media plays a role in influencing.
tbf as someone who does not use any form of social media maybe i am wrong, but does this stuff not appear on his feed constantly because he interacts with it? isnt the feed designed to show you stuff you engage with? could he in theory just unsubscribe from these roided fitness influencers and find others who are natural and try to "tune" his feed towards those peoples as rolemodels? best would probably be to stop using it alltogether, but with it being an addiction of that generation thats probably easier saId than done, but i always thought you have some sort of influence on whats shown on your feed depending on what content you engage with. might just be naive thinking on my part though, no idea.
Yeah I feel bad for him. Don’t know why the editor zoomed into his hands shaking, just no need to try and mock him for being nervous for being on camera or interviewed etc. Dudes 17 he needs to be guided and nurtured.
@@juliusfahlbusch3168 The way social media feeds are engineered, will often target your insecurities. The way we consume media is often negative focused, or basically risk aversion. Rather than viewing positive things, you're more likely to view things you AREN'T or that you can't achieve etc. You're slowely feeding yourself unrealistic goals and over times your views get warped. It's never a quick process and usually takes a bit of time, but it's insanely effective and it's why social media can be so ridiculousely lucrative.
Especially impressionable teenagers, they are already insecure in who they are, they're trying to find themselves in the world, so they're really easy to convince. This isn't new at all to our society, but we haven't taken advantage or abused this fact to quite the extent that it's being done today.
@@juliusfahlbusch3168 whatever you look at the most will be fed to you, correct.
As someone who's been taking steroids for almost 10 years now it has nothing to do with social media, i simply love being swole hahah + i enjoy the lifestyle and seeing the progress. Not everyone likes the idea of busting their ass in the gym daily for years, just to get minimal progress.
Comparison is the thief of joy. Be proud of your progress and don't destroy your life guys.
Orrrrr do what you want, but inform yourself and know the risks.
If you're scared of comparing yourself to others, it means you subconsciously know that you're inferior to them. Comparison and competition is essential in all aspects of life.
@@RashFever26 I agree in part on what you said, but it doesn't mean that if I don't compare my self to others, I'm automatically inferior to them... maybe I'm just focused on me. At the end of the day I live by me and for me, so ok comparing for the sake of doing better, but it doesn't have to become an obsession in a way that I start living by that.
Healthy comparison could be okay, but I think focusing of yourself and who you were yesterday is a better way of comparing yourself with "someone else".
@@GoldenChildBHwhen you do what you want you’ll end up getting certain things you don’t want
@@RashFever26My internal organs are superior to their's. Good luck with that XXXL heart trying to pump blood through an obese amount of muscle.
Thanks for making this video Will. I can't believe it! I've been off social media for the last three years and I wasn't even aware how much the standards and expectations have changed. It's crazy how normalized steroids have become in the US - which means I'll soon see it here in Romania too.
Lol thats crazy look whos here....
Your end talk deserved my like. Thank you for trying to show people that its not worth it unless you are making your life about being on that stage.
In the words of my older brother when I asked him about steroids as I grew up: "Just workout hard and don't be a bitch".
Never even looked at steroids after that
Best advice about steroid use ever
plot twist. he was on steroids
amen
@@doyourownresearch7297😂
Easy when you have good genetics lol
People worry about their hair, acne, libido, gyno but what they fail to understand is the difficulties on your organs. Most importantly, the heart.
Exactly. You build all this muscle that requires more blood, while shrinking the chambers in your heart that pump blood. Increasing demand while lowering supply.
i feel like organ issues are pretty commonly brought up by a lot of people. It's pretty common knowledge. I'd say gyno is less commonly known about than the added stress on organs.
You can't see the heart.
That’s why you do cardiac scans if you’re going to juicing
The heart is also a muscle, that's why it also grows, with gear use.

Jeff Nippard's comment on the natural ceiling was super insightful.
too bad he's not natty anymore. he took some steroids in his latest vid
@@NandoFIT-df8ly?…
@@NandoFIT-df8ly No he didn't stop spreading lies. Jeff is currently on a one year journey to see his full natural potential. Watch the video before commenting nonsense.
@@NandoFIT-df8lylol no he didn't he was just talking about steroids, he competes tested in the natural divisions. If you watched his video he talks about why he wouldn't take them and he considered it a long time ago.
I've reached my genetic ceiling once in my lifetime when I was around age 26 after lifting for around 10 years. It is hard to do. As an advanced lifter you have to be really in tune with your body to know when to change things up here and there to keep making small gains over time as it feels like you are navigating your way carefully around plateau after plateau.
But in doing so I got way bigger then I ever thought I could and literally no one believed I was natural lol
8:45 homosexual tendencies due to steroids? Now I get Dr. Mike's behavior...

I was thinking about that lmao
This is a WILD take and portraying someone's sexuality as being a negative side effect is not it!

@@susbrody5983 no just completely unresearched and makes the speaker looks uneducated and ignorant. No crying, everyone is grown. Just an advice ☺️
Another great video!
I’m a 35 year old female and I never considered taking steroids, but when I was in my teens and early twenties I suffered pretty hard from an eat dis. (Not sure if I can say the whole thing without getting flagged?) and thought very often about taking diet pills. But thankfully I was able to realize that I didn’t want to deal with side effects then or for my future self just to be skinny. And the real B of the thing is looking back at pictures of myself then when I was really suffering with my ED and having my mindset that I do now, I was actually skinny! I just needed to weight train and I know it would have helped my mental health tremendously!
We didn’t have social media as intensely as we do now when I was really suffering, but we had magazines and shows and movies. Especially the 90s and early 2000s super skinny appeal. So I can definitely see the appeal some of these young guys and gals are dealing with.
It does make me sad to hear how young they are and they’re willing to shave some time off of their lives just to look bigger/more muscular. Especially the one kid who is about 21 and he said he would be good checking out by 70. I hope that as he ages his mindset shifts because as you get older, 70 really isn’t THAT old. I don’t have children of my own, but my 15 year old niece is basically like my daughter and I want to be around as long as humanly possible to spend as much time with her as I can, and as she gets older if she has a family of her own I want to spend time with them. Being healthy is the main goal for me now. I no longer have the desire to be “skinny” like I did during my ED time, but now I want to be strong and healthy. I want to be able to continue to care for my grandparents who are 93 and 88 and be able to lift them when needed (like I almost had to do with my grandmother the other day when she fell), help with things for my parents and mother-in-law. And be as active as I can be with my 15 year old niece running around like she likes to do. I want to be able to keep up!
I hope the ones that don’t want to take steroids because of the side effects continue to not want to take them, and I hope the ones considering taking them or are already taking them reconsider. 🖤
you people will never understand why i start using it and what i felt, too much focus on health issues but not focusing on issue i am having right now.(That kid who want to die at 70, i agree with him the issues i had in my 20s should have killed me faster than these steroids , i am 40 years old now and proudly say i am on steroids and they changed by life for good) So give T users a space to talk about it don't evil-ize it too much that we just decide to stop talking about it and what we really feel. its shame to see people being hesitant to answer but taking steroids
This is an incredible, insightful video! Thank you for this Will
Comparison is the ultimate thief of joy.
And I have been robbed blind
Preach!
Not if you’re comparing to yourself in the past. When I look at 18 year old me vs 31 year old me I’m happier
I find it insane how most people struggle to be better than each other. I only struggle to be a better version of me.
-Bob Goff
I respect the guys with shittier physiques that didn't lie about their steroid usage, more than the bigger guys that clearly lied about it. And there was quite a few of them.
To be honest I didn't see anyone in this video who was clearly on roids (who denied it) from a physique perspective
@@patmanrick the black guy with a tank top was sus, but else than that most of them checked out imo
@linussorensen00 bro... welcome to African genetics... plenty guys from African heritage who've never ever been to the gym looking better than guys that regularly go! He could be using but he legit most likely isn't and is just built to be a tank.
everyone in this video who said no's physique is 100% attainable naturally
@@NeuroLiftingAnd then those Gargantuan Genitals!!! OMG!!!
Thanks for doing this video. I subbed. This is such an important topic and it's great that you are countering the trend of sterioids usage
This is the best content you've produced. You may even extend or save many lives with it! Thanks for doing this! Every time I've ever considered doing PEDs. I come on to YT to see videos like this to remind me I don't need to do them. I lost 131 lbs and got down to 12% bf. From 311 lbs to 180 lbs. I just finished my first bulk and now doing a little mini-cut. I need to continuously remember. I started this to extend my life for my wife and kid's... god willing. But once in a gym I fell in love with body building. It's like an addiction now... but a good one. Anyways good shit Will.
How tall are you
It’s insane to me that these kids are juicing. They’re gonna fuck themselves up for life
Yep
Kids are getting their and balls cut off and shouting they are a women.....social pressure?
Well when you have liars like this influencer telling people you can achieve his physique naturally it's no wonder.
Also, the teen kids didn't once say he sees those same really jacked people in person, he just referred to social media. They can't any longer see the difference between real life and the total fakeness of social media. So imagine that goes with they don't think about the consequences at all.
What if you only did 1 heavily controlled cycle? Is your life ruined at that point? Should someone just call it quits because they used steroids once? Should they dig a grave and sit in it until they succumb to the inevitable repercussions of their misguided decisions?

Great content man

This
Just want to clear up what dude said in the video.
Steroids aren't turning you gay, you were already gay. The increased libido side effect just pulled you out the closet
This, but unironically.
fitness influencers have done catastrophic to this generations physical health by their use and peddling of gear. Disgusting. That last guy with the huge forearms saying "why put your body through the stress of being a competitive bodybuilder if you're not going to compete" which hits the nail on the head.
The worst is the denying of use, and making an average joe think it’s achievable naturally…
@@maggiepp7997 I agree, it makes the people who actually made real natural results always feel small even though they're actually big and strong and have actually done better job than all these fake insecure roiders.
I dunno how old you are but as a 34 yo dude who been lifting for the last 20 years, people were using gear way before social media, i dont think the ratio changed.
@@yoanbertrand7926 It did change and demographic has expanded as well. Before it were some dedicated bodybuilders, lifters, bouncers and insecure morons. Social media pulled in many young and valuable people who wouldn't do it if they didn't see super jacked guys on daily basis. It has similar effect as super hot girls on social media, magazines, adverts etc. has on women.
Its not just that but also culture around it. I saw a guy on Instagram saying he was working out for 7 years. He had great arms, abs and shoulders but his pecs were super weird and small. My instant thought was that he has weird anatomy but overall its good. Man was i not prepared for that comment section..... EVERYBODY was piling up on him that he was just not working out at all, how crappy his training is etc. Its not just influencers, culture has to change around what a good body is.
Honestly, at 45 I consider taking something to help lose fat, but getting bigger are is behind me now.
It doesn't have to be. Come to the dark side.
Will Tennyson looks like he's on steroids too.
Putting fitness side for one second, you are actually a really good interviewer. Your follow up questions get people to open up and explain more without leading them down a path.
11:56 "No i want my health" says the dude with roid rash
He does a great job if not just letting disinformation or vague statements just go by like they’re all valid
That 17 year old is big! And very self aware and reflective of the impact of social media. Very impressive for his age.
I don’t think he’s aware that he’s falling into the trap though. He just said I wanna be like random guys on social media. Probably to get girls or to just appear bigger for his friends. But in all honesty, I don’t think most girls wanna date a guy that looks as big as the rock. He’ll find that out the hard way when he still gets no girls
I can relate with all of these people. I would never do it, but social media glorifies it. I appreciate the video.
Great video. Amazing and very important job. Thanks.
Most of these dudes are already on it. Especially the ones that look 40 but are 22. That’s wild.
It's insane how old most of these guys look
Gen Z is the oldest looking gen ever because they keep getting scammed into doing all this dumb stuff with chemicals.
I think a lot of them are embarrassed to admit theyre on it and it doesn’t really show lol. It wont really without years of it or hard work too, but you can def just do steroids and casually lift and look pretty natural I think.
That 21 yo Asian is probably on it. He looks way too old to be 21
Facts
Im almost 35 and going to the gym since I was 23. The natty potential is higher then most would think by just being smart about the traininglifestyle and being consistent.
When people say, "I've reached my natty potential," I hear, "I no longer want to make changes to my diet, exercise, or lifestyle." They are nowhere near their actual, physical limits.
Same I've gained 30KG (with a flat stomach but not abs) in 17 years of lifting
Yeah you fail to realize we are talking about western civilization here. Everything from the moment you are born and grow in this culture is all about me. What can I do to get the maximum results with the least amount of work. Who can I back stab to gain for myself? What’s lifted that message more than anything ever before is social media. So no matter what you’re gonna have people who would rather have their 15 mins of fame than to live a humble life.
it just needs 10 years of good training to reach and nowadays people want everything right now
What if you don't reach your natty potential but get to a physique that you really like and feel happy with? I just want to put on 20lbs of muscle or honestly even 15lbs would be great for me.
Great content mate! 👏
Good video. Educational and I’m sharing it with my best friends teenage boy/young man.
The video was class... I love how you specifically followed interviewees' reasonings with Derek's words.
This. This video in particular is so entertaining yet still somewhat professional
1 year natty before gear kid genuinely made me sad. I’m in my 30s, been training for years, already have a wife and kids and STILL any time i think about gear immediately talk myself out of it because i know i can improve my diet and training and still dont want the extra risks.
That said nearly every damn day social media makes me think about it
Wait till 40
so you never get strong
Then get off social media, or create a new account and don't follow or look at that type of shit. It's probably the best thing you can do for both your mental and physical health.
Iam 19 years old and iam also on steroids. But i regret it. But if you once started it you can't stop.
Who said you cant stop @@JA_1337_
Great advice at the end!
shaming someone for considering steroid use is insane

21 year old trained for 1 year natural, starts doing steroids, "i don't mind taking a bit off my life, rather be strong and get to 70, than 90 and decrepit". Bro if you take for 70 years you're not going to get close to that age, and if not, then you're not trading strength for age, as when you stop, you're not really stronger when your hormones do not help you anymore. It's crazy that so many steroid users rationalize because they imagine they are gonna live for 100 years without, and steroids will only take a couple of "bad" years off in the end of their life, bro that's not how it works, getting a blood clot in the brain at 27, dying from liver or kidney failure at 32, or getting a massive heart attack at 44 is not anything like you imagine now is it? Waking up from a coma at 34 to live the rest of your life as a vegetable with major brain damage is not like this..
Aspirin, water and telmisartan doesn't exist?
They train for 'health'
this is the biggest misconception that exists.
they think that it’ll shave a few bad years off their life. no. it takes away from your healthy years. you’ll age to be miserable faster.
Lol best case scenario, dudes gonna be decrepit at 70 instead
@@JT-yx7vfthese guys don’t know what they’re talking about. They don’t consider these people having different genetics. What are their family’s genetic outliers? Do they have heart conditions in the family? Is there other common issues? People just think “steroids and die”.
taking test just to look like an average lifter is wild
Nothing wrong with just test so its not wild at all , now taking all kinds of compounds just to look like an average lifter is wild
@@conormayweather5474 cope 🤡
No it is.. it is wild@@conormayweather5474
@@conormayweather5474 yes there is definitely something wrong with taking test wtf. Where are you hearing this from. If you take test from a young enough age(before 30 at least) your balls will shrivel up and your body will stop telling the testes glands to produce testostorone naturally. Some people may have to take external testostorone for their entire lives and struggle with erectile dysfunction. Dont fucking take test unless your doctor says you need it.
@@conormayweather5474exogenous test is just as bad as any other steroid. Youre still gonna experience side effects while on it and hormone deficiencies when you get off of it
"when I go onto social media" that's the problem right there
Excellent video Will
No I would never consider using TikTok
Instagram is the same thing now unfortunately
Imagine taking test and meth. How horny u would be. It would be scary
Facebook and UA-cam have reels and shorts too! I’ve spent five+ hrs doom scrolling
To that dude who said at 12:33 that steroids will help you minimize risk of injury, it's actually the opposite
If you don't have the self-control to avoid pushing yourself too hard in the gym, something like Primo would probably decrease injury risk by enabling you to recover from the excessive training you were going to do anyway.
@@diablominero steroids weaken your tendons
weak tendons = muscle tears
@@revert5651 I'm no expert but I don't think they weaken your tendons. I think steroids can grow your muscles at such a fast rate that your tendons can't keep up and that's when the injuries start to happen
@@revert5651 training with insufficiently recovered muscles also risks muscle tears. I think the net effect of relatively refined steroids could be beneficial for some people.
@@luigui707 thats what i thought too but no, studies actually say that steroids weaken tendons

Thinks blood tests will somehow magically pick up whether your arterial walls are thickening, enough said.
Bro sounds like Cbum NO CAP 💀
Yeah. Good blood results only mean that at the moment when the blood was taken the things that were tested looked good. It’s neither a guarantee that it will stay like this nor does it show if something else is wrong. And often it’s already too late when people finally realize something is wrong. It’s scary how little informed some people are of the risks they take.
He probably just finished a hard set
That's why he's out of breath
Bro just finished working out
Okay this is too much. He probably could be through a hard set. You guys don’t lift I guess😂 Otherwise how do you go to these conclusions 😂
will is straight up professional reporter
Pointing out that your priorities change with time is so good. Don't do things in one season of life that will negatively affect every future season. Not worth it.
This is one of my favorite videos that Will has ever put out. People often dismiss the fact that men have deep seated insecurities about their bodies. To have someone who is natty post something like this is so important, and Will is truly doing the groundwork to spread the message about steroids while also being a great role model for what is possible without them. Great job!
"Just workout and eat, it's literally that simple" - Love ihat.
It really comes down to working out for health vs. working out for aesthetics. Both can be achieved naturally, the difference is time.
it's that simple FOR SOME people, i responded extremely well to lifting when i was younger, but i saw waaaaaaaaay too many people who didn't respond well to training and i could totally see them getting on steroids just to see SOMETHING happen to their body
@@notimportant3686 I agree that everyone is different, but I also say that everyone needs to find what works for them. I'm 61 and have been working out inconsistently my whole life. Only NOW am I seeing progress because I am being more consistent with minimal workouts and better nutrition. My goal is to be healthy first, the benefit of that is looking great.
I look better now than I ever have. In my younger years I was tempted by steroids because I wasn't willing to put the work into it as much as it required, but never crossed that line. I still think, "Should I? I probably won't live long enough to suffer the side effects, but it could kill me faster".
"Just workout and eat" is great advice to look like Kyriakos Grizzly.
The amount of mental energy needed to spend on food restriction alone is like 90% of bodybuilding.
@@notimportant3686Nah its like that for all people. Were all human beings with potential and limitations. Calories in vs calories out. Move more eat less it really is very simple. Quality of food also matters. Eat better
Don’t be so naive
I have been working out for more than 10years and to me is not only about getting bigger. Its a mix between bodyfat % and that pump feeling after workout. People want to keep that feeling permanent. In fact many people when asked they like what they see in the mirror after a heavy workout. If they just could have that feeling forever they'll be happy.
I believe have achieved my max potential regarding muscle gains. To manage that I had to forced myself to eat loads of food so I can keep up and as expected you also gain some fat. The biggest problem (in my opinion) of being natural is having to deal with this balance of trying to max out the muscle gains and not gain much fat. Having time to balance your social life + professional and still hit the gymn to max muscle gains and cut the body fat is just an exausting process. You get tired of this routine after these many years.
When i was 22 I used to weight 71kg. After all these years working out (allways natural - protein & creatine are best friends) my regular weight sits now between 84-86kg and with 14/15% bodyfat. And let me tell you, when I finish my workouts I look into the mirror and it feels like i'm on steroids. The problem is, only lasts 20min hahahah
The point is,you get tired of the routine, sudenly you also ahve other responsibilities and other things you like to do as well and can longer dedicate that much time to min max to cut all the fat down to single digits % and thats where steroids come to play. You start wondering "I'm super happy with 85kg and this muscle mass I have at the moment but I just dont have time, patiente (cuz just been doing it over 10years) and time (cuz family, friends ,work and other fun activies you like to dedicate yourself) maybe if i just take a small dose of testosterone or something, then I will be able to shave of 2-4% my normal body fat".
And this is the tricky part. I personally dont believe people want to take steroids because they want to be HUGE. Many of them are already happy with their muscle gains but for several reasons they can't cut their bodyfat down to single digits. Then you log on social media and all these "influencers" are freaking lean as a god can be! They all have single digit bodyfat and of course they post images and videos with their muscles pumped from the workout to maximize the ideia of being big and lean.
Comparisons is steal of joy
Bloody hell. Social media's living rent free in the heads of some buds.

yea man, even just having that app on your phone or an account without using it can mess with your head
I dont blame social media I blame them for caring.
This is extremely sad. The same as so many young women feeling the need to get BBLs, one of the most dangerous surgeries there is.

@@MrDeone365 he wasn't. Black genetics is one thing, that much lean muscle is another.

Im also in a similar situation but with hairloss. Im also in the verge of getting bloodwork to start medication but this video got me questioning things. I have been in this place and planned to take a plunge now im back to square one, confused on what to do.
I’m glad u made this video, this video makes me stop thinking about the possibility of taking SARMS
shoutout to the 1 guy at 18min who talked about not wanting to cheapen his achievements. Nothing compares to the confidence, discipline, self-respect, and character that's built from putting in the work yourself and not relying on something else to do it for you.
hit the nail on the head 🎯, it's why I've never considered taking steroids, A) because of the potential health issues B) because I'd rather work hard at something and know I earnt it rather than taking the easy route, I would never be satisfied doing that
yeah, if all else fails my pride and stubbornness of wanting to achieve everything myself would never let me touch steroids id rather be less muscular and know I did it myself
7:35 The fact that this guy is nearly breathless and his RELIEF is that his grandparents still have hair. 😄
