Yeah you could research even further into different training methods, i can't say wether or not this will be the answer for you, but you could always try that before hitting the good stuff
Fact is you will hit your goals quicker on the juice, thats what the drugs are designed for and i use them continuously, i never come off anymore cause i feel better on them so common sense prevails and tells me to do what makes me feel good both physcologically and physically. A lot of guys give roids a bad rap and talk novices out of it, but you'll never get that with me dude cause i know they work and i've seen physiques completely revamped within months of first initial steroid use, these guys may have never ever seen these results without the gear.
