if steroids would become a BIG issue in professional bodybuilding, then the IFBB would promote natural bodybuilding and they'd probably be out of bussiness. Let's keep it real, what would the IFBB be if they banned steroids with no exceptions. what side of their business would that affect?, well, we can only imagine. I bet there are a lot of federation outthere that promoting the so-called natural bodybuilding, and they're nowhere as successful as the WEIRD borthers.
true
all of a sudden joe weider becomes 'trainer of losers' and dynamic muscle builder gets exposed as a dynamic rip off.
seriously, this is not even feasible. can you imagine if the ifbb REALLY enforced strict drug testing?
don't really have to imagine, just look what happened to the vince mcmahon's wbf. a seemingly serious attempt was made to drug test and most of the guys turned out looking like
shit natural.
after that it was gone in 60 seconds.
make no mistake, weider is a fraud, a billion dollar business perpetuating the deceit that his training programs and supplements were somehow responsible for the drug induced physiques that fill the pages of his equally deceitfull magazines and books - 'get massive muscles like
insert favourite weider bber here'.
having said that, he has also stuck by bbing through thick and thin unlike every other federation that has come and gone with the blink of an eye. he has also done a great deal to make the pursuit of bbing a little more mainstream.
it is fair to say that a certain governor of california owes a lot of his success to mr weider.
