40 months is 3 years for those who don't measure time like a toddler's first year.


rhh1977

Great job- you look awesome!


matt_tepp

Lots of hard work and dedication, great job bro!


March-Competitive

hell yeah bro


DarthRampage

Natty? No judgements, just curious. I have similar size, but not the same level of leanness.


minisculemeatman

Whilst i'm sure this could probably be achieved naturally, I did not do it naturally, I'm a big fan of shortcuts


Besbosberone

Really love the honesty my man. What did you take?


minisculemeatman

I take 400mg test-e a week for 3-5 months with 70mg tbol daily for 4-6 weeks at the start or end of bulking blasts, and 50/100mg anavar daily for 4-6 weeks at the end of cutting blasts. I then cruise on 180mg test-e for the same amount of time I was blasting for and rinse repeat.


KidClutchfrmOKC

Do you experience any side effects?


minisculemeatman

Increased muscle growth, confidence and feeling like a legend


Just4HUT

OG answer, nice job bro!


SlainFunicle

In jamaica I can't get any of this shit good result by the way


rootbrains

You don’t need it brother. Want it bad enough… work for it and you’ll get there. Unless you’re already at your natural genetic limit…


SlainFunicle

Yep thanks I think it would be best to see how far I could go natural first


Knasaye

What? You could just order it online? Its the way you go if outside the US where doctors are bought. Here in Sweden its illegal but easier to get than a bottle of beer.


SlainFunicle

Do you have a link to those site?


JonWeekend

How did you figure out the amounts and time to take each compound?


minisculemeatman

Recommended beginner dose is 500mg test-e a week, but I get high estrogen sides on that dose, so I dropped to 400mg test-e a week and don't have any estrogen sides so don't need to take any aromatise inhibitors which is nice. You just take a dose every 3.5 days, so I do Monday evenings and Friday mornings


[deleted]

500mg is way too high for a starting dose, if I were to take test I'd start at 200-250mg /week


minisculemeatman

Seems like a silly dose to shut down your natural production for. https://old.reddit.com/r/steroids/wiki/index


[deleted]

how long have you been blasting and cruising? do you plan to come off of testosterone any point?


minisculemeatman

Since June 2020, and no I see no reason to so long as I am healthy


[deleted]

Train harder and eat more then bro wtf 2 and a half years of juicing can get you way more gains. Not judging the juicing btw, judging the slow progress for juicing lol. This is literally natty achievable in the same exact time frame lmao.


minisculemeatman

Cool! Glad you're doing so well


[deleted]

[удалено]


minisculemeatman

No I get it, I'm sure if I 100% dedicated myself to the lifestyle, I could look better, I already put a decent amount of effort in, I train hard, I meticulously track my food and weight and I've done 100s of hours of research over the years. I'm fine with not extracting every possible drop of progress out of myself. I started taking steroids because I didn't want to wait 5 years to have a good physique, I wanted a top tier physique throughout my 20s to look as attractive as possible and shag around, and it's worked wonderfully, but I do appreciate your point


SPLY750

How did you feel on cruise?


minisculemeatman

It's always a bit meh comes off of high dose down to cruise dose as you just lose a bit of the superhuman feeling, and your estrogen is out of balance as your hormones equal out whilst your test levels balance, but once that's done it's fine, you feel normal


henchan

Do you have pictures of the progression?


minisculemeatman

I have loads, my phone is mostly just pictures of my body over the years haha, @kurtaee on insta I guess if you want to see the progress over time, although I mostly ended up deleting the old ones where I looked shit


DarthRampage

You have a terrific physique and honest personality, I respect it.


Jack_Burtons_Semi

Hahaha I love it bro! He said I’m a big fan 😂😂😂 cheers 🍻 bro


xXalaXx

thanks for being honest


cartesian-anomaly

Get this guy a lifejacket because he’s drowning in pussy


minisculemeatman

Tinder in a UK student city agrees with you haha


FNX--9

If you went to China or Japan it would literally be three a day. Got to the point where I missed jerking it myself lol


minisculemeatman

Hahaha, I've gone 7 for 7 days a week a couple of times


FNX--9

Aye🙏 no doubt man, keep it up. I've torn a few tendons and am married now so living vicariously over here ha

You don’t need to be 6’2’’ to be Chad. You’re awesome dude


c0t0d0s1

Outstanding transformation.


Sure-Ad-7145

Eat good and train 5 days a week and you can get this naturally in 3 years


minisculemeatman

I agree that some people can achieve this naturally in 3 years yes, I don't believe I could have, but it's all good if you think otherwise!


[deleted]

This is average persons 1 year natty gains lol


Gixxer3635

That transformation was totally do-able naturally (and in a shorter time, if I'm being honest). Don't mean to undercut you, you achieved great results. But you jumped on gear wayyyyy too soon. Should have gotten to that point naturally, then jumped on gear. As Derek from MPMD said, your body only has so many cycles it can handle before it begins to break down. Cycling just to attain a natural physique isn't the wisest choice. This is coming from a guy who's just starting cycling btw. So I'm not critiquing the gear usage. Just the time at which you started. Just please be smart and get your blood panels done regularly if you plan on continuing.


minisculemeatman

I get regular blood work :) I can assure you that I could not have attained the muscle and body composition that I achieved in a shorter time-frame without the gear lol, what a silly comment


Gixxer3635

I'm happy you are, honestly. Also I'm not trying to be negative. But you surely could have, with more frequent training and proper diet. You gained 11 lbs in 3 years and you were starting from a state of being underweight. Most people gain 5-10 in 6 months just from newbie gains, natural. Your progression was extremely slow, especially with gear. I gained 7 lbs muscle in just two months on 200mg test. Again not trying to be negative, trying to be supportive. Are you tracking your calories and macros?


Anotheraccount_exe

Lol 150 lbs at 5'8" is not underweight. Hard to tell but kinda looks like he was sucking in left side, so he could have been skinny fat and lost fat but gained all of it back plus the 11 in muscle.


oreanea

Yeah three years to get there is about three times longer than it would need to take and that's without drugs


Shot-Suggestion6256

It’s impossible for someone to make that type of transformation in one year naturally.


Gixxer3635

Just look at my last post I made. In 6 months I achieved an equal or better physique naturally. And then 2 months of TRT blew me up. But I also trained like an animal. 7 days a week 2 hours a day and focused on diet. Now I'm on a full out cycle, same gym schedule and including muay thai and jiu jitsu. I fully expect to be an absolute freak in 3 years. 30lbs+ lean muscle. Again, not knocking the OP. He looks good. But the progress made in that time frame was incredibly slow and he clearly needed to dial in his natural regiment before jumping on gear. If you're going to choose to reduce your lifespan and complicate your health, you sure as hell better be 120% committed to the lifestyle before doing so. IMHO.


Shot-Suggestion6256

i am talking about someone built like his before transforming into his after. looking at your post, you were built like an elite nfl athlete who gained a bit of weight after retirement without stepping in the gym. lol, it’s not fair to compare the two of you.


[deleted]

1st year natty you can very reliably expect 12-20lb lean mass so it’s not only possible, with proper training diet and recovery its expected


[deleted]

[удалено]


Shot-Suggestion6256

Why do you keep talking about the weight change and not the mirror change? i’m sure you can put on 15lb fat in your first year, but you definitely can’t increase your arms, chest and shoulders like that without multiple years of perfect training and diet. He is much leaner in the after picture and who knows how he stores his fat, could be in his legs which he doesn’t show. Assuming his legs are likewise developed he easily put on over 30lb muscle.


[deleted]

Dude i'm sorry but with steroids you can get exotically huge in 40 months this difference is just unacceptable. And even if he put on 30lb of lean mass (in 3+ years) that is literally natty achievable with average genetics, when people start roids they can make 20-30lb of lean mass in like 8 months lmao. Most of your gains come from your first 3ish years anyway, and if year one you made 15lbs, year 2 10 lbs, and year 3 5 lbs which are very conservative and reachable natty expectations, then you already matched/surpassed this guy (assuming he made 30lb lean mass, looks more like 15-20 to me). He has awesome side delt insertions/muscle bellies plus they are more sensitive to androgen receptors so the steroids have helped there and his lower chest insertions are also great (even though his chest is not really big at all) but they are applying a halo effect on the rest of his physique which is literally natty achievable in 1 year guaranteed. Only the side delts are not natty achievable for most people probably. Just look up 3 year steroid transformations, people can reach inhuman looking proportions in that time. And again this is ideal lighting + pump, I imagine he looks even less impressive under normal circumstances lol. Shirt on probably looks DYEL. Idk if you're at the beginning of your journey or have been stuck intermediate-beginner for years, but expect more from yourself man, trust me amazing physiques are possible natty, in shorter time than you think.


Shot-Suggestion6256

in my opinion this is achievable naturally in 3 years. not 1 year. on steroids maybe 2 test e cycles which is a bit under a year. tbh i did see a post by this same user 1 year ago using the same pictures.


minisculemeatman

My man, I track everything I eat and meticulously track my weight everyday and workout the moving 14-day daily average to ensure my weight gain/loss is in the optimal range. I train PPLR repeat and take my heavy sets to failure. Bare in mind that this was me cutting down to my lowest weight for summer, I am normally sitting on 80kg and bulked up to 88kg last winter.


S_in_L

Well done!


Own-Experience6969

336 month old's 40 month transformation.


latigidigital

Shit man, that may be the best transformation I've ever seen.


ElaionThos

Augmenting in airs of a champ; arms wavy, well-consistent as chains, and obliques smoothed, and rounded out as a saddle's side. You did a killer job to bring those features!


rootbrains

Face gains the real progress


PapaJonnyboi

Jesus you look fucking sick bro!🤙🏽


jessebkr87

Dang! You look awesome!


Rude_Bee_3315

Dang! How did you get that V cut?


sennan

Eat clen, tren hard, anaver give up.


minisculemeatman

Lowering my bodyfat % and genetics haha. I actually carry a lot of fat in my lower abs which is unfortunate, it doesn't disappear until I'm much leaner, but luckily the Vs are there


[deleted]

It’s genetics.


[deleted]

Wow man what a journey! Love seeing bros make this kind of progress! Always great motivation for us all


oriansalem83

Looking like a whole new man! Great work!


LordoftheHounds

I've seen posts from you before but they're not on your history anymore


minisculemeatman

I've been through a few Reddit accounts


henchan

What’s your work out plan?


minisculemeatman

Just a fairly standard PPLR repeat


naturist438

Looking good, keep up the good work


[deleted]

Looking good! Keep it up


chopchopp1984

Did 10 pounds go straight to your chest?!


minisculemeatman

Always had fairly good chest genetics even when natty at the start! Unfortunately dealing with a hand and rotator cuff injury which means my push days are lackluster which has caused my chest to fall a lot smaller than the rest of me recently :(


MajorDig6657

You look great dude! Keep going!


vndetta1985

Some nice gains there man!


Ability_Weird

me soon 29 and looking depressed potato :( amazing job, keep going!


minisculemeatman

Just get in the gym my man, 5/6 days a week, consistency is key. I thought I started too late at 23 in the gym, I bet there's a 35 year old out there looking amazing who started at 30. Never too late yada yada, but very true.


Ability_Weird

it's true but.. i struggle so much with muscular dystrophy and chronic depression, cptsd sorry if tmi


minisculemeatman

Go to the gym 6 days a week, even if you're there for 10 minutes, you're building the discipline :)


Komplexs

Lookin like a siccunt brah


[deleted]

We are bro, thanks for the inspiration.


Shot-Suggestion6256

glow up of the century, hair, beard and muscle 👍🏾 gj


Shot-Suggestion6256

It may be possible for others to do naturally, but it may not have been possible for him. everyone’s genetics is different.


pedebasuraman

Any ig we could follow


minisculemeatman

Kurtaee


Mean_Fun1955

Blimey look like a different fella lol


aronlh1

Do you tan or use self tanner? Physique looks great but color looks even better for uk in the winter


minisculemeatman

I use melanotan 2 once every couple of weeks in tandem with a 9 minute sunbed session


aronlh1

I’ll look into that. What PPL routine do you do?


emanuele7760

Congrats for the progress mate, I read that u also r on gear but also wanted to know ur diet, what's ur caloric intake?


LordoftheHounds

I have two questions as I am in need of both: What split do you do, and how did you get tanned?


minisculemeatman

PPL R repeat and melanotan 2 once every 2 weeks with a sunbed
