<\/a><\/div>\nCalum von Moger Gives Honest Warning About Steroids<\/strong><\/h3>\nVon Moger began lifting weights at around 14 years old and has previously explained that he remained natural<\/a> throughout his teenage years. He eventually decided to use steroids around the age of 20 or 21 after being told that competing successfully at a higher level of bodybuilding would likely require them.<\/p>\nHaving experienced both natural training and enhanced bodybuilding, von Moger now believes young lifters should spend their early years seeing what they can accomplish without drugs.<\/p>\n
His message was especially clear for teenagers and lifters in their early 20s.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cIf you\u2019re certainly in your low 20s or in your teens, don\u2019t take steroids, okay? Just train. Just follow a program. Be strict on yourself. Be disciplined. Eat well. Train hard.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Von Moger also discussed growth hormone and warned that it can come with serious potential risks. He argued that anyone considering it should undergo health screenings and be under appropriate medical supervision, particularly because of concerns surrounding underlying medical issues.<\/p>\n
Rather than viewing PEDs as a shortcut every ambitious young bodybuilder eventually needs to take, von Moger encouraged lifters to be patient and develop their training, nutrition<\/a>, and discipline first.<\/p>\n\n
