Hello Gh15,
I truly, truly enjoy reading your posts ! We need someone here to tell the truth ... to come clean ... basically, to not feed us BULLSHIT ! And you certainly bring that whole package ... now here's my question ( if you choose to answer it ... I understand you probaly ( sp. ? ) recieve quite a few E-mails a day so I'll try and keep this short ):
I competed back in 2004 against Steve Kuclo ... I'm pretty sure he was even juicing then seeing as how he was 18, 230 lbs approx., and was bloated on stage, yet ripped ? His Trainer ( Troponin ) proceeded to tell me that I just got beat by a person with better Genetics and that Steve was ALL-NATURAL ... my question is ... how could you tell, by looking at Steve's physique, that he's using Insulin ? I agree with you though ... he certainly could go Pro and I wish him all the best in doing so.
1.there is no natural in competetive bodybuilding,,age 18 6feet 230lb ripped is only achieved after couple good years on hormones,,you were beaten by a guy who used hormones,,might have better respond to hormones than you but never the less used use and will use lots of hormones,,the kid was the quivelent of stavio couple years back then blew up because he wanted to do damage and since he sits at 6 feet if im not mistaken he needed a lot more than 180-190lb on stage to do any damage
2. insulin and growth has a distinguish look to the physiqe,,i call it the "swole and hard volumized paper skin look" it is easy to recognize when you femiliar with hormones,,it is also the only way to get to the size the kid is at because with out it he will sit at 200lb max,,if you notice kuclo got very little muscle maturity if at all,,his muscles are not ready for that size its all new,,but he will get pro card at the end since i know what it takes and he has what it takes
in general i think you were beaten by a guy that had better repond to hormones and more experience with hormone use or with people who helped him that had that experience
