I would say he was on for his movies , although most of the movies wanted him smaller , I think he is still on to this day , it may not be much but I'm sure hes on .

In the movie, Red Heat Arnold shoulder presses 315lbs Standing up  :o  (unless the weight was fake) I would say he was on.

He was on for most of his movies I would say.

hahaha yes I saw photos of that. I also saw him doing it with one hand so... he was either incredibily strong or some one was holding that weight with strings.. too bad I never saw that part in the movie.

I'd say he's still on growth and not roids. His hair is holding up pretty good. That means he's doing growth.

Is this thread a joke or what?

Yeah, real natural.  ::)

Maybe after steroids got banned in '84, i think it was, but even then, his training and he probably got hrt to stay half big.

I think he stopped taking stuff since he retired. He wasn't big at all in comparison to when he competed. Muscle memory is also a great thing. In his movies he pretty much got his arms and chest big again. All the rest was way smaller than he was when he was competing.

 Hmmmm...let's see, he gets in shape for movies in only a matter of weeks, including Terminator 3, which he shot long after retirement. I am going to have to conclude that he is natural ;D

 Yes it is. Have you heard about his preparations for Terminator 3, and the incredibly tight schedule he was on?

No for two reasons.

1.) He has a heart condition

2.) The media would of unearthed it after his gubernatorial achievement

 Wrong, doctor/patient privilege. The same reason we will never find out how many plastic surgeries Michael Jackson has had.

He admitted to using steroids until 1990.

you guys have no idea what type of physique is possible when you're in your 40s and 50s.  One cannot look like he did in the terminator movies without drugs.

I would think that he did something for his movies.He looked big as a house in Predator yet smaller than he did at the 74 "O". I know he had a trailer with weights in it on the set of Predator and worked out with the guys on set.
   Arnold is a smart dude and I doubt he is on anything that would cause him further harm with regards to his vascular system.
   After all Arnold's main goal in life was to be a powerfully rich man. Bodybuilding and the movies where merely a vehicle for him to get there.
    I remember when Arnold first came out in to the mainstream and people where like............."damn that dude is scary big...............I gotta get like that!!"
   I was just a kid back in the 1970's but growing up in California I knew who Arnold was before "Pumping Iron". I remember telling my dad that he would be the next John Wayne or Clint Eastwood and he walked away laughing.
    My dad now admires Arnold and thinks back and laughs at how an 8 year old kid could tell where Arnold was heading.

Armold was big in Predator? his arms looked all of 16 inches, i laughed my ass off when they did the close up of his arms when he shook hands with Carl Weathers with the sleeves rolled up on the Polo shirt.

  You need to re-watch this movie dude. Check Arnolds arms when he tosses the cigar after they waste the gorrilla camp.
  As for Carl Weathers, he was not as big as Arnold but he was a big dude. He was not some silly Hollywood wanna be action hero, the guy was a legitimate buff dude. Far better shape than probably anyone posting here.

He had major heart sugery. That would prevent him from ever using again if he was smart. And he's smart enough. I've read he still does cardio but I doubt he seriously weight trains. He just doesn't have the free time. Wasn't that bad shirtless pic after he got heart sugery and couldn't really exercise too much?

Arnold will weight train until he dies, steriods or no steroids. He's done it since he was in his early teens, why would he stop?

Post by: theworm on March 27, 2006, 03:06:44 PM
Its pretty obvious that he used.  Look at him in the terminators, commando, ect, then compare it to movies like the one he was pregnant in (Junior), he had a shirt-less pic in it and he was small as hell.

It is even rumored Will Smill used for the Ali movie, and Nicolas Cage did in Con Air...

Other point, he was cut in T3, then that pic of him above, small.  He used have worn a shirt!  haha.  I know he is busy, but damn, at least do 50 push ups a day.

In Conan and Red Heat he was still in his 30's. In the picture where he looks like a flabby grandfather he's 55 and that was before T3. He got in good shape for T3. Maybe he did use for some movies but if he didn't he can still achieve the movie shape. Muscle memory... it's not so hard. he's not growing brand new muscle.

The foto on the beach was taken after a surgery,

you gonna blame a old man for looking like that?

I also remember Robert de Nero in "Cape Fear", unbelievable physic for somebody of 47/48 in that time. Dennis Quaid has also an almost impossible physic, and the man is 51/52 when he made "yours mine and ours".

it seems that some people here believe that there is only two choices:   drug free, or massive amounts of steroids and gh.   

100 mg/week of test is still "on steroids".   for someone in their 40s or 50s, 100 mg/week will make a difference.
