Sorry dude you are totally wrong. Bodybuilders are not natural. It is impossible to achieve even 20% of the mass that they have accumulated naturally. Being in the industry and meeting/knowing numerous professional bodybuilders the reality is JUICE. Natural growth is a rare phenomenon unless you are deficient in myostatin. Or first time weight lifters can achieve noticeable increases in mass but the drop off rate is huge and maintenance is nearly impossible. Every physical body that you see and say ohh man I wish I looked like that is probably a product of steroid use.I'm not talking about Brad Pitt in fight club because thats just a function of low bodyfat (even then he could have took a cutter like winstrol or anavar, who knows with hollywood. Go talk to the 300 cast about juice) The silly thing is a lot of people do not know they may have used steroids. For the past 12-15 years many supplements marked as pro-hormones (think andro, poor mark mcgwire) were sold as legal products and once the slow ass FDA catches on it gets added to the wonderful reference book of anabolic steroids. Many legal supplements are still in the pipeline and on their way over to the illegal garbage bin. Another reason why following bodybuilders is pointless b/c the workouts they throw in Flex magazine are too difficult and can result in over-training for the average/normal person.

ultimately its about incentives. The fitness industry is a SHAM. Most supplements will not work unless they are some form of endogenous test. Creatine what a joke.

At the end of all this I am not promoting living a non-healthy life style. There are wonderful benefits to moderate cardio and low calorie diets.

I can go on and on and on. But I just hate not having the truth out there and the whole world fooled.

Lyle mcdonald at www.bodyrecomposition.com is the real deal. The guy has great advice and he is a no nonsense dude. The only thing we disagree on is natural growth. I feel as if his assumptions for growth are too high. www.steroidology.com is another great site for users and non. I work with a few natural folks and some add 20 lbs but it is not that noticeable (b/c its never pure lean body mass). The only way to naturally mimic roid effects is through protein timing which has a 1% success rate.

Reality is, what you want to look like is impossible. If you want to shed 20 lbs of fat sure thats doable naturally but achieving a sick looking fitness cover body requires 250 mgs of test to the upper right glute area twice a week. Good luck folks.
