He had been around for a while, was by no means small, a mid-level pro 2nd/3rd tier, claimed to be natural. He seemed to have maxed out. Next thing we know, he blows up into the monster on the right, and takes the big one.
Besides the obvious replies of up the dosage, slin, gh, wtf did this guy do to progress from very big to huge?

Are you trying to tell us something "figo"?

At an advanced level to get your back, arms, and especially legs up so much is incredible.

"El_Pajero", are you referring to the original post, or me asking if pic is visible? Bit vague your question...

The "explosion" came very late, when he started to work with Chad Nicholls. I really guess that Coleman knew little about drugs till the Mid-90s, Teh Chad was the first to put him on a great stack and the rest is history. ;)
-
Crazy. Even his ankles got bigger.
-
I'm aware of Chad working with him, just unbelievable how he seemed maxed out until he showed his true potential and response to aas.
-
the same can happen with brandon

Curry?

Ronnie is definately a guy that i think could have been clean when he turned pro.

Thats what I was getting at, just waiting to see if anyone shared the view.
It is the natural thing to think, isnt it? (No pun intended) Maybe the guy really was a nattie when he turned pro.

Ronnie had a different look to his muscle when he turned pro. McGough used to talk about it until about 96 when he broke through and started winning smaller shows. after that point he exploded in size and lost that extreme sharpness. still amazing after that, but looked the same as the other pros, only bigger.

From Flex I think. I believe the background has been changed.

For sure, his shape changed a great deal, and he did lose detail.
-
Definitely agree that he lost some detail at the expense of gaining all that mass. I always thought that the mass monsters suffered more by loosing the detail then they really gained by coming in close to 300 lbs. I definitely thought Ronnie reached a turning point with the size, where he started sacrificing detail. I always thought he would be better off returning to that halfway point (for lack of a better phrase) between razor like sharpness and freaky mass. I think he would be hard to beat at that condition. He's got the potential to posses the best of both worlds. The size/mass as well as the sharpness and symmetry.

Not really. Grand prix in 2004 Ron was 303.

no he wasn't.
-
i think he just worked out his carb timing. no reason to believe he's not natural to this day.
-
Simple. He activated his dormant muscle fibers with Aplodan (c).
-
More drugs?
-
More drugs?
More,more, drugs because his calves woudnt respond ...but his upper body was Mr.O caliber from the start.
-
no he wasn't.
ummmmmmmmm YES HE WAS there Dave.

Louisiana Gumbo, Jambalya, Creole and Cajon cooking....WORKS WONDERS.

Can you see it now?
this pic is a good proof tht you can't improve a naturally bad calve.. Still I believe his arms in the 2004 pic have been photoshoped..
-
What was ronnie at the '04 Olympia?
Around 300lbs wasn't he?
-
Ronnie is definately a guy that i think could have been clean when he turned pro.
That makes sense...A Texas cop who has seen where about every single new rec/drug originated from decided to get into the most corrupt drug infested "sport" and not only turn pro but do so naturally...
Texas cops were fucking around with XTC before 99.9% of America knew what the fuck XTC was...And TExas football was taken so seriously well back into the late 70's that alumni have been killed over it...

"I've never even smoked marijuana" - Ronnie in Flex mag back in the day :D
He wasn't natural when he won the World Champs. But even some "experts" claim he was, such as On_Swole on here. If Disgusted thinks so I'd reconsider though. :D

see your point its not like big ron when he turned pro was being touted as natural as with the other ron coleman who was musc developments natural poster boy with the other guys.
-

of course he was ::)
-

Well, actually he was touted as a natural. Like the quote I put there shows. Many "experts" such as Dante Doggcrapp believe he really was natural, and also competed natural the first few years as a pro. They claim he started juicing in about 95-96. I'm pretty sure I've seen Milos say this also. I think it's BS of course.
The only expert who never tries to fool you on these boards is Disgusted IMO. So like I said if he believes it I will reconsider. :D

he waited late in the game to really hit the gear hard and heavy - he was prolly doing very little when he got his card. Lets not forget he got some the best genetic around - ever see the pick of him at 14 - he was ripped as hell then!!

Exactly! I was at the NPC nationals in '91, and he was the only top hvy wt that was willing to take the urine drug test to be on the world team. He didn't win the nationals to turn pro,he didn't get first that night either. Ok, he went and won the IFBB Worlds and passed the urine test there as well. Hard to say if he was 100% clean or not at the time. BUT, as you pointed out he obviously had to wait until he was well into his pro career to hit the juice hard.
He went from a ripped 217 when he won he worlds to a ripped 287, 10 years later. That is 70, count 'em SEVENTY lbs of additional muscle on an already impressive world amatuer champ physique!
-
You guys are completely full of shit.
But then again you probably think college football players don't juice. Ronnie was a linebacker and was likely very familiar with the juice long before he started his BB career.
-
The fact that he gained mass is irrelevant. He won the biggest title in bbdg 8 years in a row. People should not be carving him or knit picking at his physique.
-
of course he was ::)
your are right, he was 230 pounds. ::) fuck what do I know.

Doses extremas de hormana de crescimento e treinos pesados e intensos. Penso que a grande vantajem dele foi usar a sua força para treinar pesado e construir, assim, músculos maiores e mais "duráveis" do que os outros culturistas que apenas "refinavam" os músculos, com treinos leves e pouco intensos...

Thats the astonishing thing. To improve so much so late into career, on an already impressive physique.

The only logical answer is that Ronnie hadn't juiced much. This would explain his dramatic improvements from 98-03. It is well known that "allegedly" Ronnie was a legit natural when he won the team universe which turned him pro. He made improvements but not great improvements up until 97. He then go with the Chad and exploded. Is it a coincidence that he got with a "guru" and blew up? I think pre Chad Ronnie was on very little and like he said in the steriod video that so poorly hid the ID of the pros, he only used when doing a show.
After Chad all that changed. Bottom line is there is no other way to explain it unless there was some new drug discovered and only Ronnie has access to it ::)
Face it Ronnie was barely using. Oh yeah and slin...this was the main ingredient for his massive growth.

Besides that? Thats not enough to you?
Some people think that drugs are a joke.
-
ummmmmmmmm YES HE WAS there Dave.
any proof? picture of him standing on a scale with it reading 303 maybe?

They claim he started juicing in about 95-96. I'm pretty sure I've seen Milos say this also. I think it's BS of course.
I've seen Milos claim this too. Not sure if here, or his own board or not. But I remember him talking about Ronnie and saying how Ronnie was a natty. Then at one contest (I want to say the Canada or something that Ronnie won, Milos finished second I think?) Milos leaned over to Ronnie and said "You're natural still and you come in looking like that?!?!?" and Ronnie said "I'm not claiming that anymore."
Now, I respect the hell out of Milos. His methods for training especially. But sometimes we can't always believe everything we read. I think Ronnie probably was juicing to some extent, probably all the way back to his football days.

Milos also said the Malaysian bodybuilders are life time naturals and didn't even use insulin. :D
-
Remember, it is the training theories I believe Milos has down. His nutrition is extensive, though sometimes it doesn't work for me (the Fed-Ex drink for example), though it may for others.
The drug regimen may or may not be true. I'm not studied in that, and though I'm intrigued by it, it's not my part of my interests. So he could be bullshitting there as well...maybe certain guys do really only take 1.5g of test like he claimed in answer to gh15's post about 30g of test per week (;D) but again, I have no idea about most of that stuff.
-
how about his THIRD mass explosion from 2002 to 2003? 8)
the guy has been juicing all his life. difference is genetics and dosage and ability to handle dosage
-
Besides that? Thats not enough to you?
Some people think that drugs are a joke.
You misunderstood what I meant, Im not implying that its just gh, slin, aas.
Im was asking for replies other than: "all drugs", "slin", "synthol"...
Know what I mean?

Classic example of someone waiting until he reached his natural genetic limits before doing lots of A.S. He built the foundation on years of hard training and THEN hit the heavy pharmaceuticals.
That's how it's supposed to be done. These days it's 2-3 years of training and then right into 2 +grams of test a week and GH :-\
-
in fact where is the true...?
-
He started focusing more on FEELING the muscle, going for HIGHER reps and not lifting like a powerlifter. :D
-
any proof? picture of him standing on a scale with it reading 303 maybe?
he goes up to 320 in the offseason, hes shown his weight in his DVD's
-

again, show me where at a show right before he steps onstage where the scale reads 303.

you won't see any such picture, as Ronnie has never stepped on Stage at 303 (apart from guest posing)

What Milos advocates may work for guys who juice, but no natural guy could ever put on decent size and strength on a program of his where you do 500 reps with weights that don't go over 135 lbs in any exercise.

Eactly why those early useres never get close to what Ronnie showed on stage.
Once again, if it is nothing but AAS , where are all the ripped 280 lb physiques walking around?
-
all year round cycles

My thoughts exactly. I do agree with his philosophy and approach to nutrition which he detailed on "Secrets of the Pros". Not the FedEx drink bullshit with the creatine, glutamine, vaseline; bend over and take it up the a$$ approach but the idea of stimulating your metabolism to lose fat instead of lowering calories.

i was in that show, amateur division, and thought Milos was going to win. but Ronnie did look different than all the other pros. for Milos to admit Ronnie was natty at or near that show gives strength to the drugfree argument, as Milos won't believe most people with substantial size can be clean.
i saw Ronnie guest pose a year later, and said "there's our next Mr. Olympia" he was totally transformed.

Can you see it now?
That's an 80 pound gain all in his CRANIUM ;)

What was ronnie at the '04 Olympia?

296 pounds according to him.

with a name like BEAR, isn't that calling the kettle............... ::)

Ronnie has the constitution of a horse.

With more side delt roundness he'd have multiple Olympias under his belt.
