I wouldn`t consider Synthol as cheating when all it does is make one look regressively worse.  You would have to be a fool to use it in the first place and it never has looked pleasing on anybody.

Same thing with implants or wearing a muscle rubber suit.  All are absurd.

I'm not disagreeing with you on that one. My point was that it's been well-documented that many bodybuilders take certain substances that (to many) would knock them out of the "natural" category, which don't necessarily involve their testosterone levels.

Plus, whether prohormones are steroids or not is STILL subject to debate. So, to answer your question, there are some whose have (for lack of a better term) "liberal" definition of natural (i.e. they'll take anything but steroids and substance like Clenbuterol, GH, or insulin).

As I stated, when someone asked if I was a "natty", anything I take besides regular food can be easily purchased at your average nutrition store (GNC, Vitamin Shoppe, etc.). By your definition, I wouldn't be a "natty", because of the supplements I currently use, namely Vitamin Shoppe's Python and Natrol's DHEA, which I got at the grocery store, while buying some more chicken and yams.

Nor, would you consider me natural, based on my use of androstendione and norandrostendione in the late 90s.

Hey True Adonis. I'll assume you are just missing this so I'll ask you again.

Have you ever taken ephedrine or ephedra?

And even then, it is still pretty much useless.
