They'd rather live like a king for a year than be average and die after eight decades of life.
Idk how having big roid induced muscles makes you "king"King in a really small duck pond where you get admiration of shmoes and maybe delusionized teenage boys.
ok, i'll tell you what most people in GCC (the arabian gulf cooperation council countries... UAE, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain, Saudi...) dotest is for offseason... most used is 750 mg by veterans.. the most i've ever heard someone use was 8 sustanons and he looked like shit compared to what he looked like on just deca and anadrol at a lower dose. he's covered in acne now and looks like absolute shit.anyway... test is a no go here unless you need to bloat up... during contests, 300 mg of suspension if you can find it and if you need test (most won't touch it)...deca for the offseason... beginners usually just buy a syringe filled with shit... i know dealers here and they told me that usually they sell them 1200 mg worth of deca per week (600 mg in each syringe... a syringe would cost a newbie $200... that's how bodybuilders make their money... and they don't tell them what's in it)I have seen with my own eyes someone who started the competition season weighing 100 kgs and 8 weeks later he was a top competitor in the 80 kg division. he's in my youtube video i made. abdulmohsin... the last guy i interviewed outside. clen, ephedrine, and t3 are like candy to him... gh at 8 iu is the norm for contest prep. offseason, usually 4-8 iu. bigger guys use whatever they can buy or steal.THERE IS NO KIGTROPIN OR CHINESE CRAP IN GCC COUNTRIES! and i've never heard any of my egyptian friends mention anything about chinese shit. remember, these guys (arab bodybuilders) are the ones tricking people and scamming them to get more stuff, they don't trust any of this crap.one of my trainees called me today asking me which GH to use... in the market now is norditropin, nordipen, genotropin, saizen, and global... global is chinese shit and people caught on... the price 2 years ago was 1200 riyals per kit (80 iu)... everything went up and i expected it to be over 2000 per kit... he says the price is at 800 right now... why? no one is buying that shit.anyway, back to the subject... offseason... if not anticipating a tested contest that year... lots of deca, lots of eq, lots of anadrol, lots of dianabol, and lots of slin with GH.food? eat... just fucking eat and take those 5000 calorie weight gainers after training and for breakfast.they get up to 30% fat in the offseason (the big guys are already there so they don't need all that fat and they kinds know they're maxed out)during my contests, i've seen a lot of guys in the pics here in the audience... they had 50 inch waists.they eat falafil, shawarmas, weight gainers... a ton of cals because they're fucking hungry all the time! not because they force themselves.I've had clients that tried to force feed... they got fat... they say they have no appetite and they're skinny... I tell them to up the hormones and tell me when they get hungry.... the ones on hormones alone get hungry 3-4 times a day... they ones on GH are always hungry and they eat all the time.training is all about feeling the muscle with a shit ton of sets... 1.5-2 hours in the gym. some of them don't break a sweat until 45 minutes into training. sets are all pyramided up... i've seen people bicep curl an empty bar for their first set and add 5 lbs to each side each set... until they hit 100 lbs 20 minutes later.competition time.... masteron, "parabolan" (that's what they call tren), gh, primo, anavar, winstrol, primo tabs... and some use eq. insulin is used by the big guys who are already lean. most big guys spend 4-6 months prepping.they don't stay on all year round... but they use a hell of a lot more than anyone else (GH and slin is year round)diet for contest prep... whatever that person thinks is best for him... i've seen people diet on white rice and chicken breast for 4 meals a day with some shakes in between. and some people on deep fried (but not breaded) fish all day long with shakes.these guys are big on supplements... every one of them carries a huge bag with 7 billion supplements with them to the gym... amino acids, pre workout shit, shakes, a bunch of pills... etc. they spend just as much money on supps as they do on food. they're big on l-carnitine during dieting too... why? i have no idea. they think it works.cardio is a big no until recently (i believe due to the slin use)... same as the americans... low intensity in the morning or after workout (they have more access to info now since there's google translate and shit)... they are the opposite of you guys... they don't like their look but they love the american bulky 300 lbs with abs look and they think there's a secret to that.they also aren't sponsored by the government... true, during contests (big ones, like arab championship, asian championship... any international shit they represent their country in) the government funds their "habbits" by telling the team coach to give them an estimate of how much shit will cost, they give him the money, he gets them the shit. offseason, they do their own dealing. they don't get paid shit and they think if they turn pro they'll be millionaires with nice cars and houses like in flex magazine.diuretic abuse is rampant. arabs are the most bodybuilders suffering from kidney failure. the things i've heard boggle my mind. a ton of lasix and sitting in the sauna without water for days before a contest... 2 months witha harsh diuretic daily and minimal fluids... shit like that. I had a trainee who hated his bloated look and wanted to try a diuretic... i told him burinex for a day and see what happens. he did that, he couldn't believe how good he looked... next thing i know i had a fight with him cuz he was using it twice a day for a month and i stopped training him. he couldn't go back to his old look (mentally).genetics... arabs have average response to gear... the typical structure is big chest, big delts, wide clavicles, stringy arms (bis and tris), nice quads, tight waist, shitty calves, small joints.some of them are the nicest people you'd meet, but most of them are narcissistic assholes who would do anything to rip you off or sabotage your progress. it happened to me when i started competing and started to gain kilo after kilo real quick. i was being offered by many big guys to be trained by them. sadly i was gullible that time and i paid them money for them to say "buy this supplement, train with the lightest weight you can and don't get tired, only use 200 mg deca and 30 mg dbol for 4 weeks on 8 weeks off, eat everything you can... etc"... when i ask where the details are? where is my schedule? where is my program? (after paying them) they say their busy, hang up the phone when i call... etc.the same is happening to my friend i'm training... he trains in qatif (that's where most good saudi bodybuilders are from) and they see his progress and ask him what he's doing... and he says i train him so he can't tell.... so they tell him i'm full of shit because he's regressing and he should hire them. all of this happened after he progressed significantly in one year and he told them he wants to compete soon.narcoticsa lot of them are big on keptagon (i think it's like speed)... but in this area of the world, it's hard to get anything other than alcohol, hasheesh, or keptagon. cocaine and heroin is for the filthy rich who have connections upstairs. no one knows what meth is.dosages?everyone is different cuz everyone else is so secretive, but they use as much as they can afford in this order: GH > primo > anavar > winstrol > masteron > tren > suspension
