Title: True Adonis - Lifetime natural?
Post by: 240 is Back on August 17, 2006, 01:29:34 PM: Adam, I've seen some of the pics you've posted for the upcoming Mr getbig contest. You are clearly a lifetime natural, but you are pretty darn strong and pack more size than most gym guys who use gear. You obviously have a great work ethic and discipline.

Question - down the road, when you're 30 years old and you have clearly neared the ceiling of natural development (and your test levels begin to plummet) would you consider using limited steroids or maybe just hormone replacement therapy?

I don't think Adam is "clearly" anything. A friend of mine dabbled in some juice in high school and confessed this to a few of his good friends at the time. He now claims natural status to anyone who he didn't talk about his past roid usage with. My opinion is that he used steroids so long ago, and they are so far out of his system that he basically IS natural. Using steroids as a teen just gave him the quick gains to motivate him in the gym. Once he stopped he developed a love for the gym and kept going despite the slower gains. Adam might fall into this category, you never know. Or he may be natural, I think his look is realistically attainable - it's not like Ronnie claiming natural status or anything. You can say a lot of things about Adam, but he doesn't strike me as a liar, so I don't have a hard time believing him when he claims natural status - if not, I'm sure he is at least clean. His gains are coming along slowly and surely, just like a guy who does it independent of hormones.

You still think adonis has juiced ?:-\

I asked him this about three days ago :-\
He claims he will always be natrual unless specifically instructed otherwise by his doctor.

Title: Re: True Adonis - Lifetime natural?
Post by: 240 is Back on August 17, 2006, 01:43:43 PM: I believe Adonis is a lifetime natural, and has never used. The question is, for Adam, "Will you remain natural for life, as you reach your genetic limits and age sets in"?

At 25, your metabolism drops. At 30, your test drops. At 35, I don't know what happens.

I'm 30 and I act, look, and feel 23 since I lost my chub. I still get carded anytime I buy a drink :) But I definitely know my test levels have dropped in recent years.

Title: Re: True Adonis - Lifetime natural?
Post by: The True Adonis on August 17, 2006, 01:45:26 PM: I am Lifetime natural and have committed to stay this way. I have never used a Pro-Hormone either.

I will gladly take any test,Urine,Lie Detector,Blood,Hair Sample if anyone wants to doubt me.

Getting older does not scare me in the least bit. I have seen some phenomenal physiques of naturals in their 40s even. I truly believe a Natural Physique peaks in the late 30s.

I welcome the challenge. I will adapt and overcome.

LOL, I don't think anyone in their right mind would think Adonis uses. He's too busy on a constant anorexic diet to be able to gain any quality muscle

Post by: Bluto on August 17, 2006, 01:48:41 PM: Anybody with a little size will be looked upon as a juicer anyway, what needs to be done is to educate the public that steroids is a beautiful thing and instead of angry looks, people would applaud and cheer "Looks good man but UP THE DOSAGE!"
Title: Re: True Adonis - Lifetime natural?
Post by: 240 is Back on August 17, 2006, 01:49:25 PM: I remember reading about a guy who was in his 50s and had gone to the gym for ten years. Someone commented to him that he must be doing something wrong, because he looks exactly the same as he did ten years ago (implying the guy hadn't made any improvements). The man responded by saying that if the only thing he was able to do was prevent his body from aging, he was happy.

Interesting way to look at it. I know we're all striving for improvements, but even those older people that never seem to change are doing something right if they're putting off the aging process.

How about that?

TA, in a week or two when you have a back day and you're recovered -

If you can videotape a clip of you doing 100+ reps with 225 pounds, it would very quickly become an instant web classic. You should seriously post that. it's unheard of, and would become legendary pretty quick.

That's interesting, 240. I think most of us at some point or another start to take our bodies too seriously and don't remember that Father Time will get his share, no matter what we do. I think the best we can all do is just try to achieve our goals as best we can and be CONTENT with our results. Something hard to do in a "quick fix" place like America these days, but nevertheless...

I garantee you it will make a difference, i would suggest going to sleep right after and dont eat youll be more ripped the next day. steroids will give you an ugly bloated face weed makes you high and doesnt fuck with your face or give you acne like steroids, anyone referncing should just look at my beautiful skin tone
Title: Re: True Adonis - Lifetime natural?
Post by: HERACLES on August 17, 2006, 06:32:19 PM: Gear is a waste if you

A) Dont plan on competing seriously,

B) Dont have the genetics to ever come close to be a national level comptetitor

C) If you just do it to be the biggest guy in the gym, and for how it makes you feel.

As natural you dont have to worry about "off time" and high injury rates, and complications down the road.

Now, I totally repect peoples choice to do it. I think they look impressive in most cases, and get strong as hell..but its not worth it to me....
Yu might retain some of it after but whatever, it all depends...whats the point? I think at this stage of my life, getting in great shape and polishing up the hard earned muscle so far is worth more to me..

adam looks like an averag eteenager who lifts weights. he is nothing special.

if any of you think he is....thats just a testament to your own short comings.

he has DECENT ...key word being "decent" biceps...and the rest of him is complete garbage for his age. especially for someone who claims to train as hard and asoften as he does.

there is over 10 guys at my gym alone who are easily 20 bigger than adonis and in just as good condition.
Title: Re: True Adonis - Lifetime natural?
Post by: natural al on August 20, 2006, 12:00:01 PM: Is TA on roids? No, if he is he needs to get his money back. Is he strong? Sure, if you believe the lifts he says he's done. I'm not saying I believe him or not, he has pics of him DL'ing alot of weight and that's great. Most dudes who are that strong in the DL have alot of back thickness and I don't see it. You can look on his "ironage for life" thread and see his back and it's not that thick.

Do you want an honest assesment of his body? Fine. Good arms, bi's that is, tri's look good sometimes, other times they look alittle shadey. Forearms are horrible, he likes to say that they are all genetic and maybe they are, seems like you either have them or you don't. I don't think he has a great chest, at least not from the side chest shots he posted awhile ago. I don't know about his shoulders, I don't remember them being very good. In some pics his back looks wide in others it does not. The problem here is that he hits funky poses on purpose so it's hard to evaluate. I've only seen his legs once and that was from the side in the ironage for life pics and they didn't look all that impressive. Bottom line here is this: He probably looks good for a guy that has been training as long as he has, he has the ability to get into good condition which is a good thing but he's not nearly as good as he thinks he is and he's playing some of you guys like a violin. Notice how everything he says is "wait until you see my back and legs", why do you think that is? Simple, he's gonna get you guys so wound up that by the time you see them you're already convinced they look good even if they are mediocore. Same thing arnold used to do.

Title: Re: True Adonis - Lifetime natural?
Post by: natural al on August 21, 2006, 04:56:31 AM: 225 for 100 seems like an odd thing to do. I guess it would be good for cardio and a change of pace....the DL is a power movement so you're kinda doing the opposite of what the movement is meant to do...I've got to think about it before I give it an "yay" or a "nay".

Like EVERYTHING ELSE IN BODYBUILDING it's about your individual genetics. When you say at 25 your metabolism slows down and at 30 your test drops those are generalizations that don't apply to all. At my age I find it's the joints that are a problem. that's why I don't go crazy with poundage, but if I pop a couple of advil an hour before gym time it's 1995 all over again. If anyone needs ispiration to train into (semi) oldness LOOK TO THE MIGHTY GROINK.
