come on, let's be honest here, arnold started his dianabol from about the first day he attended a serious gym.
why? BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT EVERYONE WAS DOING.
it wasn't considered an issue back then. hell hitler was using test and amphet on his troops during ww2 and, whether people want to admit this or not, arnold was practically a fucking nazi living in austria. being big and strong was an absolute must for this arian kid and
NOTHING was going to get in his way.
anyway, it was so common and accepted back then, they had it with their breakfast. where do you think the 'breakfast of champions' term came from? it just wasn't a big deal like it is now and the only reason it's so immoral and unlawful now is because of the whole east vs west cold war beat up and eatern block athletes kicking the living shit out of westerners and westerners wanting to make excuses, "oh, it was all because of the drugs, etc, etc" knowing full fucking well that they were taking EXACTLY the same shit. the soviets were just a little more organised and up front about it.
ooh, that was quite a rant wasn't it? glad that's off my chest, annnnnnnnyway, yes gh, you should know better than to play cheerleader and prop up tossers like shawn ray and arnold as the ideal aesthetic or whatever. you may prefer the less freaky physique, but don't start playing agendas here now. you've been doing well up until this shit. like shawn, love him for all i give a shit, but don't prop him as some sort of bbing saint because, from all reports i've heard, he was doing anabolics from the get go. seeing as ray's a christian now and wouldn't make an intentional lie
i request him to speak on this.
as for arnold, fuck me dead, he was the ORIGINAL mass monster. there is NOTHING this guy wouldn't do to be as freaky as possible and he WAS. maybe you're getting him confused with frank zane.
be real gh. if you don't like tom prince (hell, i don't care much for the man either) but don't imply that the man was some sort of pussy in the gym because you couldn't be further from the truth. if you knew him back then you would know he was as hardcore as you'll get.
