Creatine was the hot new shit when I was in highschool. Along with those hilarious cybergenics ads.

Twin Lab made a killing until Muscle Tech took over. Cell Tech in particular was legit creatine. Dudes were getting huge from that and the other Muscle Tech products. The stack at the time was Ripped Fuel, Cell Tech, and whatever protein Muscle Tech was selling. That was probably a better combo than anything you could find today but I wouldn't really know cuz I haven't taken anything for awhile.

Bodybuilding has become a freakshow. It's about quantity instead of quality. The top guys like Phil Heath and Kai Greene have distended stomachs from HGH and insulin. If you want to see more aesthetic builds, look to the Men's Physique competitions.

Plus, you feel less gay looking at them because they wear board shorts instead of banana hammocks.

Those physique guys are on just as much stuff as the top tier IFBB pros (Not targeting Steve Cook in particular).

I am really involved in the Ontario bodybuilding scene - I know most of the prep coaches, dealers (often they are the same people coaching) and most of their clients.

A recently crowned IFBB physique pro (not naming names) is running 3 grams worth of gear (Anadrol kickstart, Test, Masteron, and Anavar nearer to contest time). The only thing they are running less of is perhaps insulin. He barely tips the scales at 200lbs in contest shape.

They physique guys may be nicer to look at for the average person, but they are rotting on the insides just like the rest of us.

Don't forget hydroxycut.

Don't forget hydroxycut.

What chemical was it that got banned in the united states because too many people got gittery or had heart attacks. It could be creatine, but I'm not sure.

Body building is messed up. Was it this bad back in Prime Arnold days?

 

[Krav McGraw]

Of course. Probably better than Ripped Fuel. I used to take ECA (Ephedrine Caffeine Aspirin). I wish I could remember the name of the company who made it at the time back in about 99. It was STRONG. I don't think this stuff is legal anymore. Guys on my ship were taking all this plus steroids we would acquire in Tijuana. Good times. Buncha gorillas we were.

Ha!! Cybergenics was awesome.

That takes me back...

According to nattyornot. Bodybuilders like Arnold, Zane, Franco and other old school cats took shit like dbol, tren, steroids like candy. Today you have cats taking that ON TOP of hgh, insulin, and synthol.

nattyornot is a good website. Pretty informative.

I think the major difference between today's bodybuilders and those of yesteryear is that guys never come off these days. You blast and you cruise - at the top levels, there are guys that cruise on a gram of test.

From what I have read (keep in mind, this is second hand info you read online), Arnold and crew would only cycle leading up to a competition. If you see some off season pics of Arnold, he is actually pretty small (relatively speaking).

The only modern bodybuilder I have heard doing this was Levrone - he would only train 4 months of the year, and would shrink significantly between shows. Of note, the guy still looks great to this day. I think he is closing in on 50, and he looks virtually the same as he did 20 years ago.

Right on man. Speaking of shrinking. Check this link out. Arnie was noticeably small.

Hey BB, who's the biggest, most defined dude you know who is likely natural?

 

[Cuzcatlan]

I was in the Navy when Twinlab's Ripped Fuel came out around 1998. Everyone on my ship was taking it, even people who didn't workout. One of our old Chief's seemed addicted to it. He would work 15 hour days bossing everyone around strung out on the shit and he was a fat ass who didn't even exercise. Scary times.

Lol. I was a Marine in 1998. I was on the USS Trenton and roids were everywhere. The SSgt in charge of the drug test was huge and clearly on it.

Mike O'Tren is still the GOAT natty

In terms of people that others may actually know (and are verified as natural)?

I know this one local guy who looks like black Superman (99.99% of guys who use don't look half as good as this guy). I would accuse him of using gear, but he can barely afford normal food. His diet consists almost entirely of rice and beans.

Just a genetic freak. If he was ever given the resources, he honestly could be a top tier pro. Sadly, he toils away as a landscaper and order picker - he can't get a normal job because he illegally immigrated and works under the table.

I do bodybuilding, Ive never taken anything, just protein. I dont do it out of vanity, Im married and my wife has seen me very very skinny and very very fat, shit if looks was important to her I think she would have dropeed my ass a long time ago... I do it because it makes me feel good, while Im at the gym while Im pushing and pulling shit, I just feel in my element, I feel young, I have friends at the gym, I feel great, and thats all that matters to me. I understand that having muscles is a product of working out but even if I knew that I wouldnt be getting any more muscle at all, I would still go to the gym because the ACT of going to the gym and working out makes me feel GOOD, and thats how I feel about bodybuilding. Peace!

Questionably, I'd have to say Herschel Walker. I don't buy the push ups, sit ups only exercise with one meal a day.
