Hello boyos,
As promised for users in the future, now or even just my own reference. I would like to document my experience with different kind of roids and which I believe to have been the most beneficial and those that have been the best in terms of certain qualities.
Over the years I’ve experimented with different compounds, and when it comes to balancing size, strength, looks, and not destroying your hair or skin, these are the ones that stood out for me.
Testosterone
Test is the backbone. It really is the best overall great for size, strength, recovery, and mood. Personally, I prefer enanthate as my ester, but I recommend experimenting to see which ester feels best for you. It’s reliable, effective, and forms the base of almost any cycle.
Also for most people the most hair safe when stacked with Fin or Dut!
Every man should have high testosterone if looksmsxxing, there really is no excuse for having low t and a poor physique and calling yourself a looksmaxxer in 2025.
Nandrolone (NPP / Deca)
My favorite bulking stack has always been NPP + Test. This combo blew me up; strength came easy, size packed on fast, and the look stayed solid without wrecking my skin or making me look older overnight. Between Deca and NPP, I lean towards NPP because of the shorter ester and the way it feels, but both work.
Side note is for those of you with joint pains this gave me buttery smooth joints when usually I’d have some clicks here and there from squatting or leg press.
Primobolan (Methenolone Enanthate)
Primo is like the Louis Vuitton of steroids. Expensive, yes, but worth it. It gives those dry, lean, high-end gains that are perfect for summer when you want to look sharp without water retention. It’s classy, predictable, and doesn’t hammer your hair or skin like harsher compounds. Definitely one of my all-time favorites for aesthetics.
It’s not super aggressive for gains but definitely found progressive strength gains nice and better than solo test cycle.
I will be adding future entries as I am to use a few more cycles with it.
What I Don’t Recommend
I don’t mess with tren. For me, the trade-offs just aren’t worth it. Sure, it’s powerful, but the way it can trash your hair, skin, and even your headspace just makes it a no-go if your goal is looking better and staying youthful, I’ve seen it age other users 10years in their early 20s, make them schizo / depressive freaks, make them lowkey break out with so much acne any gains of muscle is absolutely outweighed by the looksmin of trashed skin.
All in all , unless you’re a pro bodybuilder trying to be comp ready and have a couple million dollar paycheck banking on it, tren gets a no from me.
Orals
For me orals are similar to test, though I've not tried them properly and may try some to review depending on how much attention this thread gets.
However in my opinion the horror stories of Blood pressure, water weight, liver toxicity, kidney issues from orals far outweigh the pros of slightly fast and easier administration than injecting.
Final Thoughts
The compounds I genuinely recommend for aesthetics and lean gains without “aging” your look:
These gave me the best results without wrecking my hair, skin, or overall appearance. They’re the ones that, in my experience, deliver growth while still keeping you looking your best.
I will keep adding to this thread with my experiences, feel free to ask for requests and I can review it for you within reason

Final Thoughts
The compounds I genuinely recommend for aesthetics and lean gains without “aging” your look:
- Testosterone (solid foundation, figure out the ester you prefer).
- NPP (especially stacked with test for bulk).
- Primobolan (premium lean and dry gains).
- Anavar (this again is the only oral id say is acceptable as i haven’t used it however other users I’ve seen have had really aesthetic and collagen increase)
These gave me the best results without wrecking my hair, skin, or overall appearance. They’re the ones that, in my experience, deliver growth while still keeping you looking your best.
