What was Arnold on? Most of you have probably read that "Primobolan 600 mgs a week with 60 mgs of Dianabol daily" posted on the internet. Anyone think this is b.s.?
I see Arnold having three distinct cycles:
1. 1966-1968 for basic size (pre-America)
2. 1969-1975 off season
3. 1969-1975 contest
Does anyone know or are willing to take a crack at his stacks?
I heard a rumor he took 100 Dianabol a day (500 mgs). Not hard for me to believe seeing as I trained with a guy who took 10 Anadrol (500 mgs) per day.
Here is what I gather from studying his career and physique:
1. He was never bloated and had zero acne or any pimples
2. His skin was incredible
3. His bodyfat was naturally low
4. He was not pumped up all the time like the pros today (lower dosage than today's standards)
I have little knowledge of the crank used back in the 60's and 70's or the kind of knowledge they had with it.
Here are my guesses:
1. 1966-1968: 1000 mgs test a week, 100 Dbol a day, 500 mgs deca dura. He joined the army during this time and had access to unlimited meat. He essentially built his foundation up to 255 ibs.
2. 1969-1975 off season: I recall him saying that when he came to America be began sculpting this physique and building quality. This is an obvious statement meaning he altered his intake. in Pumping iron, at the beginning when he returns to the gym after a vacation or layoff, he looks to be off totally. I wonder if he even did an off season regimen or did he do a modern day "pre-contest" cycle during his prime?
Off season: 1000-2000 mgs test a week, 100 Dianabol a day, 600-1000 mgs Deca.
3. 1969-1975 Pre-contest: I also heard a rumour he was one of the first to take HGH starting in 69. His bodyfat was also quite low for a guy who never really talked about diet at all or big contest-prep (food) but then again, he was the best.
1000-2000 mgs test a week (Suspension the final week or two), 600-1000 Primobolan a week (might explain why his skin was so nice), 600 mgs Winstrol Depot a week.
He prime was 73-74 but sadly there are few pics or movies of him during these two years.
So, what do you think? Care to give your .02 cents worth?
