Yes these anabolics were indeed invented, but alot of people didnt know about them.Plus the availability was a little difficult.I talked to Tony Atlas, and alot of bodybuilders from the early 1980's, and they didnt know about Winstrol , Anavar,and Primobolan.I know some of the IFBB pros did, but not all of them.Plus the dosages they took were very ,very low.Back in the 80's 500 mg of test a week, was alot.Plus the knowledge of steroids wasnt as in depth as it is today.In my post, I didnt mean the steroids werent invented, they just werent much knowledge about them.They didnt have the internet, and the few people "in the know" didnt tell others.I started training in 1985, and you didnt hear alot about Winstrol, Anavar, Primobolan, and GH was something everybody thought Arnold took that why his jaw was bigger.
When I trainined at George Eifermans gym, there was a good amount of guys who used anabolics, I would find syringes in the bathroom all guys used was Testosterone, D-Ball, Finajet, and Anadrol 50, thats it.
Most of the guys would who used Anadrol 50, would talk about it giving nose bleeds, from squatting heavy.
Guys Like Tony Atlas who trained in the early to mid 1980's and alot of them didnt know about Winstrol, Anavar, or Primobolan.Most of them just took testosterone,and D-Ball tabs.Plus they didnt use as much as they take today. Like I said before, 500 mg of testosterone a week was a good amount back then.I have talked to alot of pro bodybuilders today, and its not on uncommon for them to use 2000-3000-of mg of test per week, even more.
