Way too round for a natural.

Chance is very little he's natural but i don't see why these guys still claim they never took steroids.

That's John Hansen. He shot his training DVD at the gym I train at Diamond Gym & Fitness in Orland Park, IL. He looks really impressive in his pics when he's in contest shape however his size isnt massive when you see him in person. He looks like an average gym rat with a few years unde his belt when he wears just a plain tee and shorts. He's been training for years so his physique is definitley attainable w/o drugs. He's definitley a natty, besides high level natural shows are tested anyways.

Don't let the pics fool you, he's got great conditioning and huge chest...but doubt he's over 200lbs.

He posts over at ironage and he doesn't hide the fact that he's used steroids in the past. He's talked about it in a few posts. However, he says he's been natural for a few years and natural for the Natural mr. O shows.

Damn straight he's on drugs.

No idea but while he said he was natural for those contests, he's admitted (on that ironage website) to having taken steroids for competitions he did before becoming a natural competitor. So he's not lifelong natural at the very least.

John Hansen aka Natural O is a credible guy and has no reason to lie. I have seen his early pics when he started with some roids years ago...yikes, he had serious pro potential. Coleman won his spot as hvy wt on the USA team by being the ONLY hvy wt in the finals that would take the urine test. He passed it and won the hvy wts at the IFBB worlds that same yr and passed the drug test again at around 217 lbs.

It is sad that sooooooo many feel that anything above a 16" arm is all due to drugs. Face it , genetics is the end all be all when all is said and done. The drugs often make for a built in excuse for those that obviously don't have what it takes.

Only Hansen knows...everything else is speculation...i will say, "maybe".....

i think it`s the same as with roids. So many people take them but don`t look like there "on". At the other end of the scale are the BB-Pros. So it`s a very wide range of what a human Body can look (or how big muscles can be build", "on" roids or "natural".).

it depends on genetic, passion, ......and a lot of time in the gym.
