Thought this was interesting... Did Lee Haney ever do steroids?
« on: December 14, 2011, 02:05:32 PM »
I googled Lee Haney and Steroid Cycles to see what I'd come up with and there was a link to a question Did Lee Haney ever do steroids? I wanted to know how it was answered and I gotta say I was pretty surprised.  This could be bullshit but it doesn't sound like it is....

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Did_Lee_haney_ever_do_steroids

im afraid he did.....whoever he told me that something died inside him the day he realised they had to be used(i add not abused) more often once he turned pro in 82. inside info time as.... this comes from the great wag bennett who train and sponsored me in early 90;s while i ran his gym,

lee haney used upto 1000mg of equpoise every 10 days, looking at his 4ib a year increase in muscle you can believe it.

that was they mainstay of his cycle.

he has no health issues and realise to compete with dorian he had to in his word "be prepared to enter into chemical warefare so he bowed out before the ten he wanted... great champion ...great bodybuilder but an even greater man.

where are they all today????????????????????????

Unlike the rest of the pack who tried to match Yates in size and ended up ruining their physiques. :(

Didn't know he wanted 10 Mr. Os.  That would have been fucking SICK!  Even Haney said the plastic trophy isn't worth it anymore...(I know the Sandow isn't made of plastic.

I would love to know what he was told about what Yates was taking...I'm guessing it was the slin is one thing...Cause for a long time bodybuilders were scared as shit of slin but the results speak for themself.....for awhile ;D

Haney saw in Yates his worst nightmare.....a guy his size who was willing to push everything to the limit...Haney did the smart thing.

Haney said in the post Olympia win speech in 1991 that he finally learned how to peak and he was just learning to know his body and that he would be back next year to for another Sandow , he obviously rethought that retired and went out on-top

I think Haney would have gotten him in 92 and in 93 we may have had the best Mr. Olympia ever cause Dorian in 93 is legendary. Had Haney really drugged it up I think today there would be ZERO doubt who the greatest Mr. O is. Would have been a helluva show...Remember Haney said he just learned how to peak in 91...I think by 93 we would have seen a 260lb stage ready Haney with Yates like hardness but with a little loss of aesthetics...It would have been jaw dropping.

Oh please like Haney wasn't doing everything the others weren't. He was the biggest of the lot for years, doing less than them? LOL

How do we know? It's all speculation. Haney was bigger than Yates in 1991, would have been in 1992. Is that all due to drug use?

How can you tell the real size of any pros arms from the last 12 years?
When flexed his arms were fine but yes he's no Coleman in the arm department.

whos to say the 80's and 90's guys werent putting anything in them? truth is he had very mediocre arms and legs for a Mr. Olympia or even top 10 Olympia guy.

The guys in the 80's and early 90's grossly overtrained. This halted there potential. Roids don't just change everything and make you recover the same if you are overtraining.

No it's pretty much fact...1993 was due to upping the dosage black socks photos in offseasn at 275 and hard as nails...no that has nothing to do with upping the dosage or adding something others dont have or know about. In 92 Dorian was low 240s and won his first Mr. O. (242 I believe) and in 93 he was 257 i believe.  Back then putting on 15lbs of stage ready muscle in one year at the Olympia level was unfathomable...So yes, he def upped the dosage.

I agree. If Haney would have been willing to really push it it's insane to think what he could have looked like.

putting 15 pounds of STAGE MUSCLE at the Olympia level is unfathomable IN ANY YEAR.

If they were it was just steroids...this was before escilene in Haney's era...Levrone, Flex, both escilene abusers... Please post me a picture or video of him outside of drug free Mr. O of his mediocre arms....I'll be waiting....and there is nothing wrong with his legs or any of the guys legs of that era.

Clearly the bodybuilders of today's legs are much too large and way out of proportion...These guys look like clowns as they waddle to get around to try and do everyday things...Blown out quads caused this...It looks stupid and frog like...People have been brainwashed into thinking these giant legs are awesome.  When you look at Haney's quads when he posed they were in proportioned with the rest of his physique....Watch any video or post any pic of him as Mr. O.

He wasn't as ripped in 1993 as 1992. He dieted down further in 1992 to compete with Shawn Ray and Momo as there was no other Mass Monster to compete against. He was 240 in 1991, do you think he only gained 2 pounds that year?

Ronnie was 245 in 2002 and 283 in 2003 was that a 40 pound gain in muscle? No he overdieted.
