I was training at Gold's gym with my chiropracter...happens about once every two months. We were taking a break and looking at the "hall of fame" bodybuilders pics on the wall. Im sure every Golds (and others) has them. He asked me when, in the chronology of the pics, I thought steroid use started. I didn't know...he pointed to the wall and said somewhere between Reeves and Bill Pearl. I asked him how he knew. He said it was because of the size of the lats. That it wasn't possible to get the lats to flare out from the body to that degree "naturally".
What do you think? How big can a "natural" get his lats to be? I've been hitting mine hard for a year now and don't see much of a change.
If you look at guys like Reeves, Grimek, Ortiz and Clancy Ross you tend to see a long defined muscle but tapered closer to the body.
Any advice?
