Is Zac Efron on steroids?

[Cool Hand Luke]

would.

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

He is like 5'5' -- not hard to get them muscle gains when you fail at the gaining of height.

 

[5crew]

would.

What happened to you? Losing the blue made you weird.

From my understanding steroids are highly encouraged in Hollywood for parts like this.

 

[bad seed]

Nothing from the photos is evidence of steroids. He likely was on cutting agents to get that leanness, but the telltale signs of roid use arent there- ie, varicose veins, capped delts, bulging traps. He is still tiny, and mainly looks "swole" because of low body fat.

That said, Hollywood actors that are dependent on their physique will take shortcuts to get there. So I wouldn't rule out mild Test assistance. But those photos alone are not enough to prove it.

When he's not filming he could sit in his gym all day probably in the comfort of his own home and work out non stop while his private chefs cook him healthy meals all day. While getting all the free supplements and shit cause he's famous. Plus coke to keep him lean, yea it's possible.

 

[Sir Galahad]

every rich or famous dude with a "nice" body is juicin

Muscles sell in movies so the studios are banking on actor's to get shredded.

 

[koolinkunming]

Uh... I think you mean Bill Hicks.

Yes. Bill Hicks. Brain Fart there.

 

[koolinkunming]

Oh, I'm not complaining. Just wondered what took you fellas so long to come around. Looking forward to next week's "I met this guy off Grindr..." Thread.

Lol

It could be natural, if he'd taken years to make that transformation, but he did it a matter of months.

I was going to say something similar.

Depends on the time frame and his genetics.

Certainly wealthy people if dedicated to working out and training can achieve super fit bodies with solid musculature.

Use this as your template...

That's Sean Connery in the middle (21) with other professional body builders. He was a Mr Olympia contestant.

You can see Efron would fit in with this group and not look out of place. But note this is the elite of that time frame and only a small percent of the population achieved that look.

and I am not claiming everyone in that picture above was natural as steroids certainly had been around for quite some time prior but most research agrees it was in the mid to late 60's when it became predominant outside very tightly controlled gov't programs tailer to Olympic athletes.

Today you will see kids in almost every top highschool program who are bigger than the picture above and while most will say they use no roids and it is all modern nutrition and work out techniques, which have indeed improved, they have not to the extent to rule out wide spread and ubiquitous steroid abuse is now the norm.

Just curious since you seem to know way more about this than I do, do you see any evidence of it in the picture I provided above for the 50's body builders? Or would you guess most are natty?

He's been training hard with Shane Carwin.

It was 1953 so natty.

 

[DanMMAleague]

I remember a while back, he did a stint in rehab for cocaine.

He was on some talk show and he said he works out 3-4 hours a day and is on a strict diet.

Surprised it took so long to bring up that he's been to rehab twice.

If it wasn't for that then he might be natty but you factor in he's supposed to be in that kind of shape whilst drinking and doing party drugs no way.

He looks like a guy who juiced a little bit to shed some hard to lose belly fat and look like Brad Pitt in Fight Club.

The more he juiced the harder it was to keep a lean look and now he's starting to blow up.

 

[Hogey]

Nah he's all natty. I look like that when I take my shirt off

 

[j123]

Zyzz reincarnated

 

[Jimmy Needles]

of course he is and I'd do the same thing if I was paid millions to get ripped

 

[Deleted member 429137]

Even IF he was. He still has to put in the work.

You aren't going to look like that by just taking roids.

science disagrees

 

[Deleted member 429137]

Not sure what you mean.

I'm no expert. But just taking steroids without putting in work won't have you looking like that

Science has recently proven that taken steroids and not working out builds more muscle mass than working out without using steroids. Add some cocaine / leaning agents and do some lazy workouts with a personal trainer and you might look pretty great.

Effrom claims he works out from 3-4 hours a day, so maybe he is putting in the work, but recent scientific studies show that there is the possibility you can be entirely lazy and still take body transforming-agents to very good result.s
