Hva skal man tro på?

Gener + treningsvilje og smartness + dianabol (kraftig steroid)

Men det er klart at idag bruker de sterkere saker og høyere doser. Og ifølge et intervju i Ironman i 1997 så begynner treningen å spille mindre rolle, iallfall blant pro bodybuildere.

Inntil 1976 så var ikke steroider forbudt i OL, og Leif Jensen som tok gull i vektløfting i OL i 1972 innrømmer steroidbruk (samme steroid som Arnold) men sier at det var en åpen sak blant deltagerne på den tiden. Holdningene i bodybuildermiljøet var nok de samme.

“I will not speak for my colleagues, but I will write of my experience with tissue-building drugs. Yes, I have used them, but no, they didn’t make me what I am. Anabolic steroids were helpful to me in maintaining muscle size while on a strict diet in preparation for a contest. I did not use them for muscle growth, but rather for muscle maintenance when cutting up.” - Arnold

Hva syns du om denne kommentaren SFV?

[SFV]

Det er iallfall en innrømmelse.

Arnold er også kjent for å bruke heftige doser primo. Hva gjelder dagens mass monsters er insulin hovedkilden til den radikale økningen i muskelmasse, hgh hjelper også til, men er mest brukt for å holde bukt med fettgains og å gi huden en slags tynn look

Her er intervjuet jeg nevnte fra 1997 :

Utdrag (IM = Ironman intervjuer, BB = profesjonell bodybuilder) :

IM: I guess it's a vicious cycle. 
BB: The insulin's very dangerous. I'm feeling it right now. I'm getting real tired, headaches, weakness. I breathe hard. Not a good drug to take.

IM: What's the danger with the insulin? It's a hormone, so what's the big problem?
BB: You can die right there. I mean, there isn't one of us who hasn't been in shock. You really don't know.

IM: Have you ever had to go to the hospital because of it?
BB: I've been in the hospital a few times, yeah. They had to use half a bag of glucose intravenously to keep me going. I didn't have any glucose in my liver, because I did too much insulin. My brain was starved, and I was beginning to fall asleep, go into a coma. It's the most painful feeling you'll ever feel. During that time your mind's going nuts.What am I getting out of all this? A cover picture? That won't pay the bills. Maybe they should start giving back to the athletes instead of taking. If they're gonna make it where we have to be bigger, we should get something out of it. Golfers make more money than we do. I saw how much they make at these rodeos too. They collect $50,000 for riding some damn bull. They don't have to take drugs to do that.
