If he stayed on this past year but didn't train or eat perfectly he'd mostly still look like his old self, maybe 10lbs smaller. Steroids are very effective for that. A while back I took a year off but continued with some steroids and I hardly lost anything, coworkers absolutely wouldn't believe I hadn't seen the gym for a year, some actually thought I'd gotten bigger.

Steroids prevent muscle wasting in people who are very ill. That's one of the primary uses of all Anabolic Steroids.

That's what they do.

To say it's all based on food is extremely ignorant and borderline idiotic.

You named anomalies in bbing, those aren’t the norm

Now compare with all the other O winners and pro competitors

I did.

A number of bodybuilding legends have lamented about the lack of teenage bodybuilders coming up through the ranks, like the Shawn Rays, Lee Haneys, Tony Pearsons, Dennis Newmans, and other big names from days of yore.

Phil Heath is the only guy off the top of my head, who turned pro in his early/mid 20s.

Here's a brief list of guys who were somewhat long in the tooth, when they turned pro.

NPC Nationals Champs

Johnnie Jackson - early 30s
Toney Freeman - mid/late 30s
Matt Duval - mid 30s
Bill Willmore - mid 30s
Ed Nunn - mid/late 30s

USA Champions
Bob Chicherillo - mid 30s
Quincy Taylor - mid 30s
Idrise Ward-El - mid/early 30s
Desmond Miller - mid 30s

North American Champions

Jeramy Freeman - early 30s
Marcus Haley - mid 30s
Michael Lockett- early 30s

That's just a small sample. When you factor in the class winners that turn pro at these shows and the Masters divisions, that's a LOT of 35+ dudes entering the pro ranks.

You were stating 40+ year olds, rhoden being the oldest bber to win the O, Dexter being one of the rare if not only one, at his age being very competitive still

Where are the 40+ year olds?? Are they common? No

We aren’t talking about turning pro at a young age or competing in their 30’s.

40+ year old bbers who are competing and still competitive are few, far, and in between, it isn’t the norm

Even then, most guys that hit mid 30’s aren’t that competitive anymore, they can still compete, but for most, winning the O, and being on top is pretty much over

If they're turning pro in the mid/late 30s, many of them are still competing in their 40s. Nunn, Freeman, J.Jackson, are among those who  were competing in their 40s. Johnnie Jackson won his last pro show (2017 Toronto) at 46. Ronnie Coleman won at least 2 Sandows in his 40s. Dennis James was competing and winning in his 40s. Same with Darrem Charles. And we all know about Dexter Jackson.

BTW, the last two Mr. Os (Brandon Curry and Mahmoud "Big Ramy" Elssbiay) won their titles in the late 30s. Are they going to be washed up in 3-4 years? I doubt it.

Yes, indeed. He placed 11th in the 2006 Mr. Olympia at age 50.
