I am currently on my first cycle (or phase). I have done two weeks so far and have four left before I complete it.

Though I'm not an expert, you aren't going to see the help that you are looking for in just a week.

As far as getting them, most people get them from someone at a gym. I have several friends with whom I work out with who use and it's a pretty common thing in most gyms, more than what most people would think.

You don't have to worry about bitch tits or all of the other horrendous side effects if you aren't doing them long.

Your best bet it to do a google search for steroid FAQ lists.

I have a friend (who is also a big supplier) who actually tore his bicep and pectorial musles this past week and when he went to the doctor, ironically they suggested steroids to make it heal.
