I'm 16 years old and still weight 120 pounds. I want to start my modeling career after high school but I don't like how my body looks. I have about a year left before high school is over. What should I do?

i'm all for steroid use if used correctly. but you're way to young. you still have lots of testosterone running through you. you need to start hitting the gym harder and better. eat better too.consider steroids maybe around 23 or 24 when your body is producing less test.

Absolutely not, anabolic steroids are both dangerous and unecessary.
I have seen several cases where men's breasts grow, their testicles shrink, and their testosterone levels drop when they are in their mid thirties because of steroid use when they were younger.
Work hard, eat right, and do your best without the steroids, if this doesn't work you should consider another line of work. Taking the easy and dangerous road is never a good idea. Remember that for every person that you see that succeeded that way you don't see the other 20 that are sick, have ruined their bodies, or are incarcerated.
That is a road that you would be foolish to go down. For the sake of yourself in 20 years, and for the family/wife that you hope to have, stay as far away from steroids as you can.

No don't start taking steriods. I'm sorry to say but most 16 year olds don't like the way their body looks either. It's what I like to call an "ackward stage." If you do start roids now, you could seriously damage your body, experience some results that do not compliment you modeling career (zizts, hair loss, shrinkage, etc.), and stunt your growth. It's your decision but there are many other ways to build muscle and look good. Try supplements that increase mass and lift weights to target what you want to work on.

Go ahead and make that deal with the devil!
Bottom line is that steroids makes your balls useless.
Your endocrine system will see that you have more than enough testosterone so it will signal your balls to stop producing it. You can research on your own what happens when you have malfunctioning balls...
Then there's the hip replacement you can look foward to at 35 and then there's the heart problems you'll get around 40 if not earlier.
Stop getting sucked up in this image obsessed society.
Go rent the movie Fight Club. Taylor mentions society's notions on what's considered "manly"
Good luck!

Do not take steroids! Steroids are serious medication. They are administered by physicians in severe cases of asthma, autoimmune disease and other conditions.
If you use steroids indiscriminately, when you really need them, they will not work, or worse, improper use of steroids can lead to kidney failure. So, if you don't want to die young, I suggest you opt out of drugs you don't need. Believe me, I take 21 drugs a day for my condition and my doctor and I have both been trying to avoid the use of steroids just yet. That is because if I start, I will have to continue since my condition is incurable. And if I continue I will hasten my own death with organ failure.

Not only are steroid illegal, they are dangerous. You don't want to end up with shriveled up private parts do you? Than can happen with steroids, not to mention mood swings, overly aggressive behavior and even the risk of a heart attack in some men.
Better alternative is to go to the gym and work out and earn that great physique with hard work.

NOOOO don't take them! If you start taking steroids, you need to be COMMITTED...that means that you will have to be strict with going to the gym, and eating well. Steroids isn't a magic drug. In fact, steroids can make you lose your hair, and shrink some of your manly parts!!!! If you aren't disciplined with your workouts, they can do the opposite and make you fat!
I know plenty of people who do it the "natural" way, and they look even better than those roid monkey's! Good luck :)

STAY AWAY FROM STEROIDS!!!! If you want to change how your body looks, join a gym and talk to the trainers there about a fitness program that includes diet. If you want to bulk up, there are better ways to do it than pumping yourself full of drugs. Watch the TLC special, The Man Whose Arms Exploded. Here's a clip of him taking care of an abcess all by himself. Watch it then decided if you want to take steroids.

Why, your brain isn't big enough for you to work out so you choose to show others you can have a big body instead by taking a shortcut that will more than likely hurt you?
I never will understand the facination with having a muscular body, you can do so much more with the mind.

AVOID THE STEROIDS! Young men have killed themselves using the things.
You still have a couple of years left. Consider a good body-building workout instead.
