COMPARISON + STATS
IMG 1:
IMG 2:
I have never taken a steroid. I take absolutely no protein powder, creatine, or supplements.
In image 1. I didn't care about what I ate. I was training regularly at that point, sometimes multiple times per day, tracking workouts, calories, all of that bollox.
In image 2, the diet is far cleaner. The lifestyle quality is overall better. I started running every single day. I ran an ultra-marathon without any structured training towards it. This is the exact moment in my life I realised how much I was leaving on the table. My whole I had been giving less than what I had. What scares me the most is that I still had so much left in the tank. That haunts me. My entire life I have been underachieving. My entire life my mind has been quitting way before my body does.
I may have descended physically. Putting weight on is extremely difficult for me due to an insanely high metabolism. I don't ever really feel hungry, and I can eat just about anything without climbing weight quickly. I have been stuck around this same weight for years now. I have made no progress in the gym, and if anything I am physically weaker, especially in strength too.
I think I have hit my genetic ceiling, at least for this weight.
I don't want to take steroids, but, trust me, it is tempting. Naturally I have a smaller frame. I think I've packed on just about as much as I possibly can naturally for the current size I'm at. I don't track calories, I know I need to put on weight.
I have ran ultra-marathons. I can hang in the gym for endurance with just about anybody my age on any type of substances. All through the power of the mind. I take absolutely no preworkout, never will and never have.
I don't even train for my body, I train because I hate training. However, being stalled now for this long, it's quite irritating.
Image 1 is when I going crazy in the gym. Image 2 is when I started going crazy about the mind.
If anyone has been in the same situation I'm in, how long until you started your first cycle, was it worth it and what would you change if you could turn back time?
Thank you for reading.
