I also can say with my head high i look better than 98% of the uneducated steroid users out there. and when i say steroids this is not limited to illegal ones. there are plenty of stuff in the legal market that converts in the liver to a bioavailable hormone.

Umm actually yes they are. On steroids, the body will use the calories it takes in more efficiently. You'd aren't a naturally super thin person are you? lol or else you'd know this.
And yes, like you said, you still have to eat a ton and work out just as hard.
It takes 5000+ calories and crazy working out to gain naturally for myself. It takes 2500-3000 calories to gain muscle on steroids. So don't tell me it's not extra help.
To gain naturally, it's can be a full time commitment, i'm talking about waking up in the middle of the night to get in that extra weight gain shake. It gets exhausting.
Steroids, you can take a day off here or there without seeing your body shrink. lol
Im not here saying you can do nothing. But you are dillusional if you don't think they are aren't extra help and that you don't quite need as many calories as if you were all natural.
And i'm sure you'll argue but every person is different and I can tell you, for people who are 6'1+ and 150 naturally. That's typically how it works. Their body doesn't use the calories quite as efficiently.
