You know what I just thought of that no one has said so far? They probably never used anti-estrogens!!!!!! Just like Nelson Montana has been saying. With out anti-estrogens you need less gear to grow. Get you thinking doesn't it?
Me personally,,,,,,,,after watching pumping iron I think the guys back when Arnold was competing the bodies were much better...I think now adays it is crazy that people are over 300lbs and shredded.....
I won't mention any names but there was a pro bb (and this is going back a long time ago - 14 years or thereabouts) who had probably about the best quads in the biz. At a seminar he said, and I remember this verbatim - he took 31 injects a week?
Now maybe that was just because he injected little bits everywhere based on the localized growth theory or because he took an awful lot of shit. Either way I had no idea because at the time I didn't really even know what a steroid was.
Does anybody remember Andreas Munzer's alleged intake that gained net recognition prior to his death? I seem to remember (if it were true) he was taking some pretty mean dosages.
I also know of a relatively well known (at the time) British bodybuilder back in the 70's who competed against Arnold who revealed what he wes taking. And let me tell you it wasn't just 30mg of d-bol each day. As far as I am aware the bigtime bb's of the 70's took plenty just as I assume the bigtime stars of today do too. Anyways - whatever the truth because only they know the truth - I like to believe they take a shitload because I'm a lazy ass who would lose all motivation if I knew for sure that the stars only took a little more than I had and look the way they do in comparison to me.
Damn my shitty lardass genetics and pussy attitude - damn damn damn!!!!...
This was not actually Munzer's cycle. He sold gear and carried a lot with him (hidden of course). He wrote down "crazy cycles" on a piece of paper that he would carry to justify what he was transporting as "possession for personal use" if his stash was ever discovered.
Munzers official cause of death was attributed to Cytadren use. He just bled internally. No cortisol and the capillaries just oozed blood. he was shredded 365 days a year.
Sofa I remember those 25 count shrink wrapped decas and ten packs of Test(Rugby,Steris,URL,Geneva,). Ahhh those were the days.
Anyone that thinks the pros from the 70's on through today didn't use comprable doses of AS is being very naive. 1 dbol a day is a joke and a lie. I must qualify comprable. Arnold weiged what in 1976 when he won the Olympia...225lbs and at 6'+. Awesome upper body but legs were not proportional. To get that way he probably used what we would consider moderate doses. We are used to 330lb monsters all under 6'(most) using grams of drugs a week. With abs no less. The older guys never got out of shape either...there was no off season.
Back then it was more anabolics (winny, primo, parabolan, anavar etc) and moderate doses of androgenic (dbol, test) compounds. Also a lot more respect for the drugs than today.
