Beyond Steroids

[Trendsetter21]

I love reading and researching all aspects of bodybuilding. I've seen this book from elitefitness emails and went to check out the author. Much to my surprise the guy looks like he never took a steroid in his life and in my opinion is kinda small. It's kinda like going to Bally's and getting a fat personal trainer. Now the reason I say this is cuz I was pretty much going to buy the book but now I'm not too sure. Has anyone read this and is it a good read or am I right with my instincts?

Ghost why don't you write a book so I know it'll have great info in it!

It is still good info. You know the saying, those who cant do teach. I think AR falls in this realm. I recall a post where he said he always had a hard time keeping up with shot times and would miss one then miss the next.

Thanks for the response. I'm just worried that if this guy doesn't take his own advice why would anyone else? He could be very knowledgeable but If I'm buying a hooker I don't want a virgin know what I'm saying? Thanks for the input though, I'll have to think about it still.

The truth is that I purchased the e-book and thought it was a great updated reference. The section on DNP was AWESOME! AR may not be a a huge bodybuilder. But, he never claimed to be. I personally knew Dan Duchaine and he was no jay cutler either and nobody questions his cutting edge (at the time) probing into anabolics by taking personal digs.
Good and smart people can come with two opposing positions on subject matter regarding steroids and their proper usage.

Regardless of whether you agree with AR's conclusions, He makes well reasoned and logical leaps to support his positions. I take what AR says and use it as part of my collective knowledge. I do the same with Macro and Mava and Georgie and AAP and PuddleMonkey (well maybe that is a stretch)...

But, it is silly to take anything any ONE person says as gospel.

I've met Anthony in person and he's in GREAT shape and really muscular. He doesn't exactly live a BB lifestyle, but that's because he's an athlete, not a BB. And I don't know anyone more well-researched. Read his blog on his site if you get a chance.

What works for one person might not work for the masses and vice versa
To have a general idea what to do is a good foundation but the fine tunning is up to you!

My point exactly. Its so funny that someone's knowledge judged in this forum by the amount of steroids that person takes on endless cycles.

 

[Pat_McCrotch]

personal experience does play a big role in knowledge

i prefer llewellyn's books to auther L rae. his books are good, but he has some strange concepts. hes a little cooky himself too.

however both are great reference books, check out chemical muscle enhancement but auther l rae also.

 

[Trendsetter21]

Thanks for the replies everyone, I think I'm going to purchase it for my X-mas gift lol. I don't know the guy are anything about him and honestly all I can go on are his looks, and I was kinda wondering if this guy is supposed to be a steroids guru shouldn't he be much larger and more defined. Again its hard not to judge a book by its cover especially with my analogy of going to Bally's and getting an out of shape personal trainer, while he isn't out of shape it was hard for me to believe that a steroid guru wouldn't be much bigger. You guys are the greatest!

Ar is a smart man guys. You going to tell bill blecheck he cant couch football because he is fat and out of shape. no I did not think so.

Anthony Roberts knows his shit. The information you'll get is accurate. Thats all you should really care about... Not everybody wants to be a bodybuilder. Some of us are into sports.

you guys r just looking for a reason to start shit......

if you don't like the mans research don't fucking read it......

bill parcells .....great fucking coach....commands respect....fat as fuck

so quit hattin or just do the research for your god damn self

Yeah research would probably have something to do with asking people and getting references about an author. Kinda what I was doing. I'm sorry that I'm going to question a guy that wrote a book about steroids but doesn't look like he's taken them. That would be like Bill Parcells writing about about Basketball. Would you read buy it? Thats why I asked people if they read the book and if there is good info on it. Yes most books are judged by their cover this is America ya know. How can you do research on a guy without asking one of the best boards for advice on how good his information is. Last time I checked that was the best thing to do. All you had to do was confirm that he has good information or if you don't believe so say he doesn't. Thats what I'm looking for, didn't hate on anyone...... Maybe you should do my research and report back to me. That sounds like a good job for you.

I'm into porn.

Bestiality of course.

Well Bill is around 50 years old and wouldn't be able to play anyways, I definitely wouldn't ask him advice on how to keep in shape, get what I'm saying now? This isn't football we are talking about, I'm talking about bodybuilding where looks matter to me. Sorry if I'm going to ask about someone's knowledge when they don't look like they take their own advice hence the reason I started the thread to hear what people had to say about the author of a book. Would you take bodybuilding advice from an author that was fat and out of shape? The whole reason of asking is this guy is supposed to be a steroid guru and he's an average sized man, not saying he is weak or not in shape just saying he doesn't look like a steroid freak. Gosh is that so hard to understand, sometimes you guys get way too emotional over questions.

calm the fuck down sweet tits....if my post was directed at you i would have quoted you

i could tell by your post you were not doing this at all.....others in the thread were the ones hatin

dont ever fucking talk to me like that again...im not your bitch and i don't need your job

All i meant was the guy deserves some respect. He has done alot of work and made his research available to us..... He also helps support this fucking board you post on and obviously support or you would not have paid for a platinum membership.

Who do you think you are talking to? Got your internet muscles going lol? Seriously like your threat would scare anyone? This is the internet and its called freedom of speech. Now Did I call you a bitch. Nope, so obviously you didn't score well in english classes cuz apparently you didn't read what I wrote.

I didn't flame you are anything, You're the one telling me to do research so I figured why not have you do it cuz your so adamant about this subject and seemed to have info on the guy, here's a thought why not just post what you know and answer my question, people are going to have opinions on both sides of the fence on almost every subject, if every single person on this board all said he was the best author and had the most knowledge around I wouldn't even believe it, cuz opinions vary and always should. If everyone has the same opinion I would be afraid that this was a biased board, and what I love about this board is its not. And I bought a lifetime membership cuz of people I knew that were on this board, most of them are gone now though, I didn't join because an author pays a board to pimp his book, last time I checked that was called marketing, he isn't donating money without expecting something in return and I don't fault him for that.
