If it’s done right, building muscle mass can actually give a lot of health benefits – viz. Prolong your lifespan, Improve cardiovascular and bone health, Recover from Chronic diseases (as in my case reversing 80% GI IBD-UC), needless-to-mention, Increasing your chances of people sliding in the DM. 

“Faster” isn’t always better, though. Each person inherits different strengths and weaknesses from the gene pool, so it’s important to take your time and find out what gym workout is best for your unique body. To dispel that last little thought in your head, “NO” – steroids are never a good option unless you want to add the increased risk of heart disease and stroke to your exercise routine.
