Met an old-school powerlifter late last night: info on old school d'bol use.

You hear so many different things on this subject it’s not funny. I know some body builders who use 500mg of test and a few odds and are close to national level and others who use 3 grams of test who do not look at good.

Old school power lifters are same way. Some took 5-15mg of dbol and others took handfuls at a time....50-200mg a day. Seems like the guys who do the large amounts where the partiers also. lol The guys who would stay up all night with the strippers and do coke and bench 600lb in the morning. If I did that I would be dead but some guys seem like they can do anything and have no problems at all. Those fuckers.

No fellas, they're weren't national meetings to decide how much steroids we were going to take any particular year. So to say "they did . . ." is kind of silly. Steroids were much less available then they are now, to a degree most of you cannot imagine. There was also no internet so the global sharing of knowledge simply didn't happen. If someone got ahold of a bottle of Dianabol that was a whole cycle, people didn't look at these drugs the way we do now. Remember little was known, so if you got ahold of some pills you took one a day. That's what you did with asprin, one is all you should take. What other drugs would you pop 10 at one time? There was no frame of reference, so you took one a day, or if you were really crazy you took two or three. Same thing with injectables.
Newbies on this board do more drugs then top lifters back in the day.

and that's how it should be- start low and work your way up- instead of vice-versa like most of these cats- but you are right they are gonna do what they are gonna do

So dbol at 5mgs per day over an extended period did provide big gains?

the drugs certainly seemed more potent back then, and legit pharmaceutical products were not hard to find, and they were cheap - remember, they were not controlled substances yet. i am talking mid 70s through about 1985 or so

some guys were conservative but many ran crazy dosages especially dbol. i knew of one national level bodybuilder (now dead) that would typcially take ONE BOTTLE (500mg) dbol/day

In 1963 the SD Chargers had a bowl of dbol sitting in their locker room for anyone to take. Without instruction. They won their championship that year.

I remember hearing about stuff like that. I think a documentary on Lyle Alzedo (sp?) revealed this kind of stuff in the league. Crazy doses, unregulated intake, no PCT, etc... But why do you need PCT when there is no PC??
