What are you, the first in your family to be whelped without a tail? Without your little helper's you are more LittleRo than anything else. You cannot mar the name of Reeves with such a canard and yet to salve your pathetic manlet ego you ejaculate the jism of your self hatred of Reeves legacy all over this thread and elsewhere.Dammit! Too many words you cannot comprehend. Let's make this simple, shall we.Reeves was his own man. His physique his own. His life, one of honor and hard work.You take drugs to build your body. Without it (and we have seen the proof posted by yourself) you are teensie weensie or at best, normal. Get off the drugs, kid. Then get off your high horse.Or not.Be well.
Fortress who posts on here once said that he was told by Bob Kennedy (who knew Reeves personally) that Reeves used steroids. Reeves apparently admitted to Kennedy that he did.Seems believable. Maybe Fortress can chime in?
Reeves always denied taking and PEDs he's been very consistent on the subject when asked , and why would he lie? It's not like they would have been banned or illegal. The whole concept is nonsense. Honestly I've yet to find anyone offer up anything substantial in the way of proving athletes were using PEDs before Ziegler. And he only learned from the Russians in the early 50s years AFTER Reeves retired and when he tried to replicate what the Russians were doing he didn't have any success and gave up on testosterone injections. And people are trying to say Reeves predates him with success? It defies logicShow me something concrete that bodybuilders were using test and or PEDs in the 1940s and not vague references I'm talking something of substance. There is NO history of athletes taking test or PEDs until Ziegler in the mid 1950s the earliest and it was ONLY on weight lifters and not bodybuilders , from all the research I've seen steroids didn't make their way out to the west coast bodybuilding scene until around 1960 and that's a full decade after Reeves retired. I'll be more than willing to change my mind on something of substance.
lol talk about high horses, love the be well part, very caring Never mind I was a natural teen world champion and the pictures of me in my twenties I was not even weight lifting or eating a high protein diet.go have another wank over Steve kid.
Bob Kennedy was a kid when Reeves retired from bodybuilding. If he said that, then I don't believe him, because he must have said it after Reeves died, same as everyone else who claimed Reeves used drugs to build his muscles. If Reeves were alive, then he would have sued for slander and defamation of character. When Reeves was training, he trained with a lot of old timers. Where is any testimony from any of them, guys who knew him in his prime, who say he used drugs?
Steve had a solid 575 bench, 775 dead and 805 squat.
Found this pic, looks like 140 on the inclines. Which is pretty good.
you obviously have the same scathing attitude to anyone who takes gear. Tell me about your saintly pure life of powerful manliness that I may emulate it

The truth must hurt you so. Your feeble attempt at sarcastically dispatching the truth of my words will not suffice except amongst those of a mindset similar to your own, i.e., druggies desperately rationalizing their pathetic usage. Not my problem. As for teaching you how to live, puhleeeeze. That's what your parents were for. Run along before I taunt you again.
It simply proves that there were steroids freely available before Zeigler and Dianabol, what one chooses to believe is up to them.
all that being said he trained for the mr universe in york pa..... and when he first arrived he looked average in jcg words , but made phenomenal gains in hardly any time ...? and won the mr universe... when he made his movies he would take it easy for months at a time than train 4-6 weeks to get in shape for his gladiator epics? i like to think he was natural , but who can really say.....
funny you think your the slightest bit intimidating with your holy diarrhoea
All forms of testosterone. Not one anabolic steroid. Like I said on a previous post the Soviets in the late 50's started gaining ground on the American in Olympic lifting. It was a sudden change. They were the ones injecting large doses of testosterone and the result was an enlarged prostate. Dianabol was made to counteract that problem by making a testosterone pill that was more anabolic and less androgenic. Reeves was in shape from lifting weights when he was a 15. There are pictures. During world war II he stationed over seas he repped out with 110lbs barbell set he had on his base. He was in fantastic shape every decade of his life until his health failed. So juice head here trying to justify there own use think he was juicing at 15, during his time in the service and every decade until he became ill in his senior years?It's complete rationalization. It's the old I look like crap with steroids so everyone else does too. No, there are guys that have a great physique without steroids.
