70's bodybuilders - Types of Drugs Used

[plow-horse]

Before the state BB show went in to the gym owners office to get my gear and he had them line up on his desk in brown lunch bags with your name and how he wanted you to cycle it wrote on the bag with a maker. If you hadn't done a shot before he teaches you in the restroom everyone would mess with you like a right of passage or something. You pick you gym by how good the guy was at setting up your cycles.

SofaGeorge thanks Bro

Yahooooo!!! That's it... Bolosterone!!! I haven't heard that name in about 17 years. It was considered teh best of the best... and none of us ever knew what was in it.

Everybody... give King Conan a karma hit for naming the mystery steroid of the 80s.

Keep this thread alive. This is bringing back a lot of great memories...

...like buying my very first bottle of D-bol in TJ. It was one of the little square light blue bottles with the white metal cap that was designed by the one and only D. Duchaine.

I just gave Plowhorse and BigMarco Karma for remembering the good old days. God, I remember when spending $50 bucks on a cycle was the norm. You could just walk into Gold's Gym Venice back then and the place dripped of juice. They kept that Underground Steroid Handbook right under the front counter... and if you were green guys at the front counter would go through the book with you and advise you on your cycle... right at the front desk. A block of 25 vials of Deca was $100...$80 if you knew somebody. Juice was so easy to get then that all you had to do was phone the gym and ask them if they could hook you up.

First post to this board...I worked out at this little hole-in-the-wall gym here in So Cal in the early and mid-80's. Guys would use their gear and throw the pins up into the ceiling tiles in the tanning room. You'd be on the tanning bed and looking at all the pins sticking out of the ceiling. The trash cans were always filled with empty boxes and vials. I thought that was the coolest gym I'd ever seen

Back when I was a skinny little pencil there was the strongest Mofo I've ever seen at a gym in Florida named Larry Stone. This guy could bust out reps on the bench at 500 lbs and this thighs were two tree trunks. The gym had this display case of vitamins and protien powders they sold. Mostly Wieder crap. I can still remember the day Larry siddled up beside me and looked me in the eye and said:

"Let me know if you need any advice on supplements. I'd be glad to help you out."

God, this is going to make me cry.

back in my teens in NY common was equipose, maxibolin tabs, d bol tabs, test. Granted I was not taking this but this was what was offered. The first time I saw how eq worked was a friend of mine ( much older) who now owns a bunch of gyms in deer park ny pulling down his sweats and showing me a ripped thigh. i freked and he said it was from equipose. this was 1978 and he actually went on to win mr universe. he sold me my first bottle of maxibolin at 16 I went home took 1 tab and told my mom i was really hungry. two days later i was suffering side effects and flushed them all down the bowl. the sides where in my head and i was very nervous about taking steriods which i knew nothing about

There's an old school lifter at my gym who trained with Sergio Oliva for a long time(no reason not to believe him). He says Sergio took a lot of d-bol(for that time) and some primo. He also told me Sergio hated training legs and only did so once every 2 or 3 weeks but still had pretty good fucking wheels.
