Big, ripped, and NATURAL
« on: January 07, 2006, 07:48:17 PM »
Anyone who thinks that it is impossible to get big and ripped without drugs is an idiot. This is a photo of Arthur Harris taken in the mid 50's. There is no way that he or anyone else in the US had access to steroids during this time period.

What's amazing is that people think training knowledge has improved since then. They couldn't be more wrong.
hahahahahahahahahahahaha

TESTOSTERONE WAS AVAILABLE IN THE 50'S AND WAS USED BY ATHLETES AND BODYBUILDERS ALIKE.

Yes by Russian atheletes in the mid 50s Olympics and it wasn't synthesized until 1958 when Ciba and Dr Ziegler invented Dianabol , and then he started testing it on weightlifters , anabolic steroids didn't make their way into competitive bodybuilding until 1960.

I could believe he was clean.  Training knowledge hasn't improved since that time.  I know it is fashionable to think it has, but it really hasn't.  I agree with you 100% with the exception of the fact there is a possibility he had access to hormones.  That said, I think it is most likely he was clean.

i think training, nutrition and supplementation has improved loads (we know wat they did + all the stuff since obviously!!!!!!!) its interesting that if that was possible back then, now u could acheive so much more. but cus steroids r used so much nowadays if someone claims they r big+ clean they r called a lier i hate that i really do. take skip lacour (and im not saying he is natural just that he might be) if this harris guy did it then why is it not possible that some of these naturals r telling the truth considering all the new stuff we know!

How did Steve Reeves do Dbol in the 50's, when Dbol was invented in 1958?

Just as a side note: Steve Reeves won the Mr Universe in 1950, and Mr World in 1948.

Close, but dianabol was invented in 1957 by Dr. John Zeigler. It was available to the public in late 1958. FWIW.
