It's all different now. I was telling a guy at work, how I had seen a guy walk into the gym, asking to start weights for the first time and to start roids. So he was asking for roids before he had touched a weight. My workmate said, he had done it the right way, the hard way ,the long way and trained a full 6 months before starting roids. |
Before there was bodybuilding there was "Physical Culture"- with the goal of attaining supreme health along with physical perfection. Those days seem to be all but gone. The priority of a lot of men lifting today is to get bigger and leaner with drugs- health be damned :(
Even in the days of Arnold steroids were not often used, and when they were they were usually taken precontest in low, monitored dosages. If you were to read the quantities of steriods, HGH, anti-estrogens, insulin, synthol, diuretics, etc. that a lot of the professional bodybuilders today take precompetition, you'd be truly shocked!
