Great Photos. Pre Site oil days yes, But dont think for 1 sec that many of them were any stranger to frequent 3cc + of oil base juice in a arm at a sitting. It occupies space and stretches fascia. Where do you think the 1st synthol pioneers got the idea? I'm no fan of gross synthol use, but anyone who dont think plenty of these guys didnt stab arms often is kiddin themself. Remember juice was totally unregulated in the day.

Ya ;D... But dont underestimate how much some of the old Timers used too...
I ain't gona say who these quotes belong to... 
"THe secret to BBing is NEVER WASTE A HYPO! If it holds 3cc it were meant to be filled w/ 3cc!". 
 And .. " Those cheap beginners weight sets should come w/ Deca and Dbol".

Monster dose dont allways equate to monster size. I think insulin & HGh protocols in the right guys genes is the reason for todays mass monsters. ANd I'll go along w/ anyone that thinks Bannout had top notch arms.
Theres a lot of bloat on many these guys even at contest today.

I suspect he tried, and that was not what his body resoponded to best,  we all get kind of pig headed about what do and dont work for us. It's real clear w/ steroids, almost every guy has 1 that acts totaly different for HIM from the norm. Ya got's to experimament & mix it up a bit to find whats best.
Then, some are just born for it, they can have a powerfull look'n bod w/ out ever touchin a weight.

Nice photos there.

These guys were supermen of their day, thing is I feel w/today's  info, supplements and knowledge, it's possible for many/most determined young guys to achive pretty close to  that level of development safely w/ moderate aas use.
I think they looked great, Im not that crazy about Jays build, but that's what it takes today.
I't gonna be interesting see how long some of  'em live, I'm surprised they aint drop'n like flies allready.

One of my earliest and fave purchases, early fall '73. Good articles in that one.

Excellent B&Ws if Sergio, Arnie, Nubret, Franco and Zane I believe was in some too. I should go dig it out of my basment for old time sake and scan some of the photos.
