They actually had one in my old gym , I tried it but it's easier than squatting because you can pull yourself up

Yes. I thought it would be. I wanted one to do forced reps and I thought it would be good for walking lunges too.

Zane used Insulin btw.

Beckles had a scare with slin, and admitted to use in mid/late 80s

Others also rumoured to use then

Wouldn't know if Zane used, but dosages were certainly different. I don't think because of moral or health standpoints, just not knowing how much they could abuse yet, like everything else

That nickname didn't come about because he took drugs/chemicals.

This is what I imagine Arnold would sound like had he been puerto rican  ;D

And yeah, I agree with what you say about bulking wrt reaching pro size...no way around it. But for us just trying to look a little better slow steady gains are the way to go.

this guy is hillariously, all the way straight face.

but its still obvious, not by body only, but by gesture.


now as for bulking up.it depends.

imo, the first couple years, if one wants somewhat size later on, should train natty some 1-2 years, then do bit bulking with steroids, and then form the body the want to.this initial bulking is somewhat necesary and will grant some foundation and will be amongst the best times in life, eating like a swine, feeling and being strong, not bad, but will also look like garbage in the process.


now, if ppl are aiming for heavyweight competition or pro size, theres no way around bulking alot i think.the brutal size they got will not come from eating clean and staying lean at all times,that is true.
but why do that, theres no money in it and the gut will grossly grow.
