LEGAL MUSCLE
« on: April 25, 2017, 08:15:26 AM »
I originally intended to post this as a response to a comment made by WES under another topic but due to the potential interest of other GetBiggers, I have decided to make it a topic of its own.

Sorry if this has been discussed in detail before.

Here is what WES stated:

"The results in those days (70's) were amusing to bodybuilders because they knew from experience that steroids worked. Most users kept quiet about any involvement with drugs because that was considered cheat-ing. That was before the medical people and politicians decided to
ban the use of growth inducing drugs for muscle building."

And the following is the comment I want to offer which concerns the "medical people":

According to my personal involvement/knowledge  at that time and as later stated by RICK COLLINS (see below), the American Medical Association was adamantly against the decision to 'criminalize' steroids or the use of steroids. (I do forget the exact teminology.)

It was the 'politicians'n (one politician in particular) who .....

Without going  into the lengthy details,  let me recommend the best book I've ever read on the subject of steroids and the hows and the whys and the who's involved when the felony question originally arose.

AND .... I go back a few more years before WES's time and would like to add to what he had to say based on my personal experience.

WARNING....The following is not intended for those who don't like lengthy posts nor the factual history recall of one who was actually involved!

Once Upon a Time when the world was so much different .... roids were legal and easily accessible but the AMA (see above) said, "They do not work!!" ....  And that was usually followed with some statement about Pablo's dog!

But .... Some doctors who lifted heavy things, but knew nothing about strength inducing chemicals, became good friends with others who lifted heavy things .... some of whom had read a Weider publication or two about little blue pills that would allow you to lift even heavier things and become bigger and stronger and faster and etc., etc., etc.

And it soon became evident that those pioneers who took those little blue pills became bigger and stronger and faster, etc., etc.,etc. than those who didn't.

Now back in those good old days .... there was no animosity among those who lifted heavy things and took those little blue pills to become bigger and stronger and faster and etc., etc., etc..... so there was no secrecy involved.

And since they were easy to get, everyone got 'em.

And everyone who got 'em, became bigger and stronger and faster, etc., etc.,etc.

And some doctors who lifted heavy things saw the difference that these little blue pills were making and began to do some research on their own with the help of those who wanted more than those little blue pills could offer.

And it soon became evident that the statement, "They do not work!" was entirely incorrect!

When you say easy to get.  Get from where?  A pharmacy?  A legit lab or some guy brewing shit in his kitchen?  Didn't most guys back then just take veterinarian drugs meant for cattle and horses?

DIABLO, At the very beginning of 'my' roid experience Anavar & Dianabol were easily attainable without a prescription at  the two drug-stores in my neighborhood.

A few years later a prescription was necessary but easily obtainable from any doctor whom I was familiar with.

I cannot personally recall seeing anyone using needles in the mid 60's but soon enough it became somewhat common to the point where the gym in which I was a member had a dart-board on the wall in the dressing room  which was not used for throwing darts.

But things and roid usage were soon to change and what was once rarely seen became an everyday occurrence.

STRONG, Only by a miracle!  ;)

Research Pat Casey, Bill "Peanuts" West, Eifferman, Gironda, Zuver, Star, and a kid named Reeves .... and many others you've possibly never heard of .... (all good friends or acquaintances)  ... and it just might give you a good idea of what you're really 'asking??'.

Once they realized Winny, Deca and Equi from vets would work on humans that's when the fun began

Diablo, Most of the individuals I knew never heard of "EQUI" back then in the 60's.

I only learned about it when I attended a breeder's horse auction in Kentucky sometime in the 70's if I am recalling it correctly.

One of the competitive bodybuilders in our group was impressed by the muscularity of these horses so we stuck around after the auction to talk to one of the 'breeders' who ended up taking us into the back to show a refrigerator full of equipoise and told us to 'take a few'.

So we ended up taking a few .... and a couple of months later I asked the guy who used it what time it was and he could only answer correctly by stomping his foot on the ground.

Needless to say ... he was only trying to be funny, but he did claim that equi was 'damn good shit!' after nodding his head a couple of times before running off into the sunset.

And what the hell was that white milk like stuff that had to be kept in the freezer before mixing it with sterile water before injecting it?

That was very secret stuff back then!

The orals in the 60's were made famous by the german national team.

Used to get orals at pharmacy in mid 80's.  Anadrol was $84 back then. I personally didn't use it.

This book brings back memories of college. This and some dorky guy with glasses named Jeff who used to send these black and white small magazines that said "Steroids" on the cover. He was a snake oil salesman who ripped off names of real shit. All peals that came in droppers. Anyone remember that?
