Supplements like andro would help, you're testosterone levels can always be higher.

Testosterone boosters, in my opinion, should be used when you hit a plateau. If you already have a solid training routine and diet and you've been following it for a while (6+ months) and you just don't seem to be gaining anymore muscle no matter what you do, then go ahead and try it. Your diet and training routine/methods will help you achieve your goals faster and better than ANY supplement alone. You also must keep in mind that andro and other testosterone boosters do not work with everyone.

Good post jbennett
i would first start off by tribex 500 or some thing i heard really good things about it... actually i am goin on a Tribex500 cycle for my first time very soon... it sound good because it doest give ur body hormons but it makes ur body tomake more natural hormons(which is what u want)....
i'll keep u updated about my gains on tribex500(if any :))

I completely agree...test boosters, pro-hormones and the like should be used when you've hit a plateau. They help to increase strength which help you overcome it.
Instead of Tribex500, you should look into Animal M Stak. It's the cousin to the Animal Stak. It contains no pro-hormones and is designed to help overcome plateaus.

Yup. Test boosters should not be used by lifters under 25, in my opinion, and only when you've hit a plateau. Hormone levels (DHEA, test, GH, etc.) only stop to drop around your mid-20s. The body is a finely tuned, homeostatic machine. During puberty and just after, you're body is pumped full of chemistry. Why mess around with that? Test boosters are not a magic bullet. Hard training and proper nutrition will do just find.

I would have to agree. Sorry for the redundancy, but at 21 there has to be more you can do before using test boosters. Eating is the key. I just can't say enough about what eating more has done for my workout. A post by Rob that Cain told me about, led to me eating about 1500 more calories a day then I was. I have gained about 10 pounds since then and my strength has continued to increase. Try some other avenues first, there is plenty of time for the test later in life, when you may REALLY need it.
