If you just want to get cut, you can easily do that with diet, cardio and training. Steroid use increases muslce mass, if you don't want to get "big" - steroids are not for you.

I kind of disagree with that... I think I know what he means, because his goals are similar to mine. There is big, and then there is BIG. I definitely don't want to become a 280 pound monster, I am 6'3" and am happy around 210 very lean and ripped lbs. That's as big as I need to get, and I use AAS to help me get there. I use AAS to get big, but not to get BIG.

For me AAS are a tool to keep a nice looking but not extreme muscular physique. When people look at me, they don't see me as a steroid user because I don't ever let my look get to that point. I want to look "naturally" muscular, but I want to cheat to get there more easily. :bigsmile

One of the things AAS do is put your body in a very anabolic, anti-catabolic state, meaning your body resists shedding muscle, enabling you to cut back on your diet (while keeping your protein high) and get very lean and build quality muscle. Also some of the ancillaries used with a cycle (arimidex and proviron for example) will affect the way your body stores fat, due to reduced estrogen levels, making you look tight and shredded! I love a cycle of test, arimidex and proviron, with a controlled high-protein diet. Gives me exactly the look that GVision seeks.

All that said, GVision, I think you are too young to use steroids. For two reasons: 1) you probably lack the requisite years of bodybuilding experience, and 2) you are a bit too close for comfort to the age where your growth is finishing. I strongly recommend ensuring you are 100% done growing before using AAS.

Do your desearch and learn everything you can, and spend the next 4-5 years building, optimizing and balancing your physique. Master your body and get yourself in the best shape of your life by using self-discipline and trying things to see what works and what doesn;t work in the gym. Then, sometime after you turn 25 and have met all those goals, you can reconsider AAS.
