On avg how much synthol do you think the usual pro ifbb injects into each arm?
-
A gallon of synthol a day.
-
About 6000mg per day.
-
You can never have too much synthol.

The balloon biceps of today look so ridiculous. Its almost like their playing a mind game w/ themselves. BB'ing peaked in the late 80's, along w/ music, tv, movies, fashion, etc., etc., etc..

You are clearly a social guru of our times.
Thank you.

Although Platz was using Escilene as far back as '85. Otherwise he'd have no arms at all.

Nobody's bicep peaks like that that late in they're career w/out help.

My coach Bostin said "3 cc's"

Anyone here tried it? I imagine it hurts like a bitch.

arm is't posed the same/same angle to be able to judge

I tried a few shots in each bi about 5 years ago,did 2cc in each one a few times,didnt hurt that much just sore.

I believe synthol use went as far back as the 1970s. It's even in a scene of Pumping Iron if you listen closely. "More oil, more. That's not good oil." Matty was injecting Lou in the posing room with 1st generation synthol. I'm sure of it.

I did to about 8yrs ago. "Gained" a 1/2in. in 24hours, lost it in 1 wk. Those idiots have be injecting a helluva lot of it 2-3x wk to maintain those ridiculous softball biceps. F that!

Not a chance. First of all the pic is a different angle and second injecting oil does not give anyone a peak.

Haha! Excellent

Wrong.
Where to inject – BICEPS – inner and outer head. You can feel the `split’ in between the two heads of the biceps when you feel with your other hand. Inject on each side of that. If you want to increase the length/thickness of the bicep, inject more in the inner head (closer to your body). If you want to increase the peak, inject more in the outer head.

It's exactly 3258mg, no less, no more.

I remember the sound of his dad's hands flocking between Louie's pecs going "flack, flack, flack"...

Depends on where. If legs literally quarts

Depends on where. If legs literally quarts
legs would be a hell of a job.
Was thinking of getting some for calves to give it another go. But fuck man... ultra annoying routine for something that is not even permanent.
I bet some synthol would help refresh your lawn though Mike, surely some sort of liquid benefit for the grass trying to sprout but not given a fair chance...
Acutally, the BA might kill it worse, scratch that idea.
-

That's a scary thought.

On avg how much synthol do you think the usual pro ifbb injects into each arm?
The fact that this is an actual issue proves that their are few enforced rules governing pro BB.
EVERY pro sport has guys trying anything to gain an edge. Look at the recent "deflate-gate" with Brady and the Pats.
The difference is the other sports actually do something to enforce the rules and the fans hate cheaters.

If the IFBB ran the NFL, guys would have horns on their helmets and use chainsaws while running down on the kick off team. ;D

Please tell me, you don't think this guy is injecting oil?
Those are implants not oil.
-
No F'in way dude! That bro is as natural as the day he was born. Greg Valentino told me so. ::)
-
I don't imagine that any pros use it. It doesn't work in making any body part larger, even less effective than steroids.

No, Really??? His arms looked just as he claims 100% natural to me! ::)

this did kind of kill the idea of competing for me. You get into bodybuilding thinking its steroids, then you learn its steroids with human growth hormone, thyroid hormone, insulin, fat burners and diurectics and its like ok this is kind of fucked up then you learn that on top of all that theres people bringing up lagging bodyparts with synthol . Whats the fucking point might as well get implants if people arent even growing muscle and just inflaming it for a short period of time for the show. May sound crazy but for me that is one step too far.
-
^^this i had to draw the line with synthol and slin,not for me.
-
I'm sure Don Youngblood (and alot of others who are where he is) wish like hell they'd never screwed w/ insulin.

I agree and think the hardcore culture to use anything and everything to enhance looking bigger and freakier is crazy. Here the only thing I can advise to anyone who feels like this:
1. Since very few make a living off bodybuilding, forget about the "pro card" as part of your personal BB goals.
2. Compete on your own terms at state/regional/local shows and keep it as a fun hobby. You don't need to isolate yourself in natural organizations to maintain some personal sanity and standards.
3. Have fun attending pro and national events and enjoy bodybuilding for what it actually is, NOT what some of us wish it could be.

I'm sure..got a friend that fucked himself up for life.blew up to 300lbs,then would diet down for a show.now he's a diabetic for life.not to mention he had to get tons of loose skin cut off.no more training or much of anything for that matter.

You don't need oil to compete, that's the good thing. It just ruins everything, it
always looks like shit.

Its more the fact that there are people doing it which makes me not want to be involved with it at all. Same as the fitness industry in general with all the lies about being natty etc .Id rather just do it for myself and see what i can achieve as a hobby for fun on just a low to moderate dose of roids.

I stopped judging 3 yrs ago, but synthol has been used for many years now.
I tended to place a guy lower if he had any obvious oil.
Anything that makes a guy look absurd is a negative in my book.

Sounds like you have good sense.
BUT, believe it or not a classic physique with crisp definition still does well in most state level shows.
You'd be amazed at how much you stand out as a 175-190 lbs ripped, well balanced BB in your wt class.
As a former judge it was always refreshing to see a guy like that in the line up.

99% of people don't know the difference between real muscle and synthol so why even bother training
