I'm in the process of returning to training after a period of detraining. When would it be reasonable to begin using substances like dbol or others?
When is it appropriate for someone to consider beginning a cycle?

Before considering steroids, it's crucial to establish a solid foundation through a well-structured workout program and maximizing newbie gains. Steroids won't yield significant benefits without a dialed-in diet, adequate protein intake, and a tailored exercise regimen.
My strong advice is to invest a couple of years into weight training first. Steroids can suppress natural testosterone production, and recovery isn't guaranteed. Moreover, they pose various health risks, including potential issues like gynecomastia—especially evident with compounds like dbol. That's why starting with testosterone is safer; it's easier to manage estrogen levels. Dbol can cause a rapid estrogen surge, leading to gyno in some within weeks. Testosterone, on the other hand, tends to have fewer side effects and can deliver excellent results for a first cycle.
