Challenge for all those that think bodybuilding is mostly drugs

[Howard]

Good Lord ! I have to laugh when I think back on al the pathetic guys I met who suck as bodybuilders and blame it on "drugs".
Really? If it is all drugs , why not just do what drugs it takes and acomplish the following:
1. Win an NPC national qualifier   2 win an NPC national level pro qualifier and get pro card   
3. win a pro event    4. go the the Olympia and be a top 5 guy.

The guys that claim its' all drugs refuse to admit they lack the basic genetic talent and drive to make it in bodybuilding.
I guess facing the hard reality they lack the goods is tough to deal with.
The disgruntled wannabees always have a laundry list of excuses, from judguing politics to drugs, etc.

Most people who say "its all drugs" also know its about the genetic response to drugs. When I say, "its all drugs" I am also implying that the particular person has an insane genetic response to drugs. So its drugs and genetics.

As for drive LOL! Paul Dillet and Flex Wheeler were extremely lazy in the gym, and both could be considered great bodybuilder.

If you have great genetics and access to the best drugs, you can easily become a pro with a shitty work ethic. Thats how important drugs and genetics are. Maybe you wont be ronnie coleman, but with the right genes, you will look like Flex Wheeler.

i also lack the inclination to be a homosexual or a taxi driver...

i'm a big strong guy who  trains naturally

bodybuilding is a failed sport

and there are far too many drugs involved

[Nirvana]

drug access is an issue for most.  also many people don't want to spend ages 40 and up with no cartilage and hooked up to a dialysis machine

[Irongrip400]

I really think I could do something with it, but I'm not willing to kill myself for it.

That's all that need to be said, all DRUGS!!!

Outstanding post.....I agree with you wholeheartedly!

I'm in the same camp and had no desire to spend the $$ or take the risks, etc.
BUT, I didn't say that drugs were the reason I didn't become a pro BB.
In all modesty I did better in actual contests then most here at GET Big .
The best guys have the basic talent for the sport and the rest of us don't.
Just admit that and move on is my deal.
Why make a million excuses is my thread question.??

[dustin]

Okay, you're right, Howard. It's a bit more than all drugs. You need to suck dick to place ahead in competitions or to get sponsors. And you need to sell drugs to be able to pay for your drugs, so you have to be comfortable with inflating prices and selling to utter douchebags. You're very right, Howard. There's a lot more to bodybuilding than just drugs!

You guys are delusional, listen to Howard. He's a very seasoned schmoe.

[Howard]

Outstanding post.....I agree with you wholeheartedly!

Thanks.
It cracks me up how some will come back with the genetics point which is obvious.
If you don't respond to training or steroids or whatever, you won't build impressive muscle size...doah!
Why do some misguided gym rats keep searching for the magic secret drug potion and guru? LOL
If you don't have the talent ( genetics) , then you don't ...end of story.

So Jay, Ronnie, Lee Haney, Yates and Arnold, etc sucked the judges  dicks? Give me a break.
Yes, plenty of lower tier pros and pro card wannabees did some dumb shit to try to get an edge.
After the dust clears, the legends of bodybuilding got there based on their talent and drive.
Lee Haney, Ronnie Coleman have 8 Olympias each ( the record) and never did any of that crap.

Yeah, truth and mundane facts suck for most getbiggers.
Lots more fun to believe the horseshit from some unknown internet drug guru like GH15.
LOL, at least I'm not trying to sell some BS product and rip people off.

Calling them lazy is like saying a sprinter is lazy compared to a distance runner. They wernt lazy the just responded to that type of training. Lazy is the weekend warrior who trains and makes no progress.

Whatever dude. I would like to think that I have the credentials to call this thread a D-. Keep whining and we can make that an "F".

What credentials? who are you? Ronnie? Jay? some nobody who does cross fit?

Not all of them, but some of them have sicked dick, Howie. I'm not against it, it's just not my cup of tea.

No, you go screw yourself "wild willie". Be real; it's all drugs. There's no shame it in. It's not a sport, it's a hobby. I enjoy the hobby too. No shame. I enjoy leaning the fuck out on tren and masteron, then blowing up on Anadrol and having people stare at me. I like being a jacked up nerd with an awesome physique even though it's not entirely healthy. Face the facts like the rest of us. It is what it is.

no, they were lazy. Plain and simple. No need to over analyze things.

[BILL ANVIL]

who are these people saying its all drugs? what do they look like and what have they accomplished? makes me wonder why they have given up so easy

[True Amateur]

What credentials? who are you? Ronnie? Jay? some nobody who does cross fit?

Nice try. I have had active membership in over 50 chat forums, many of which I acted in the capacity of moderator. I have also been a member of a telephone chat line since 1992 and to this day periodically serve as a guest moderator. Those are my credentials, son.

[Wiggs]

No one is denying the training, discipline, food and genetics. The same as in any other bodybuilding org. Only in the Pros. It's drugs and a shit ton of them.

[Pottsy]

Bullshit if you have good genetics and a balanced physique and can train hard and heavy without injury.Load up on upto 8grams of gear a week,eat high protein and get enough rest and boom in the next 10 years you could be an ifbb pro,but once you get your pro card stop all drugs as they are banned just ask JIM M.

[Wiggs]

By the way Howie. The best pros will be the ones with the best genetics on the most drugs. That's the natural order of things. That is assuming all other things are equal such as training, food, discipline and drugs (which they are).
