    Gear: The Most Important Bodybuilding Factor

    Diet and training, both undeniably important but there is no question steroids and gear are what make the bodybuilder. No one in this video exist as they are/were without it, not even close. That's the truth.



    Overall point....cool video.

    Agree, but the same could be said about food and training. Because steroids alone will not put you on stage. All 3 go hand in hand and should be treated as one.

    Genetics to dude! I could cycle every compound under the sun, have an excellent diet and routine and never be at that level. So many people write off pro body builders by simply saying "there taking steroids". Such an ignorant statement with no legitimacy! I am not saying that is what you are saying, I understand what you mean. Just saying, haha.

    Absolutely, genetics outweighs everything else. I'm not simply referring to genetics in terms of how muscular you are naturally but genetics in terms of your genetic response to gear. That is everything.

    In a general sense I agree. In a competitive bodybuilding sense I disagree. Even with a perfect diet and training plan none of those guys would look anything like they do without butt loads of gear. However, many of them would still look pretty good with butt loads of gear without a perfect diet and training plan. I only say that because I've known a lot of bodybuilders over the year who their diets and training are nowhere near as stringent as many every day people on this message board.

    Oh... I don't disagree. Diet and training will not get you there. Ever. Perfect diet is quite a loose statement to me. But yeah, I agree that you can eat like shit and grow, so long as you're eating a shit ton. But a 200 lbs man eating 2000 calories and hits the gym twice a week, even God couldn't make him grow.

    I will admit. I have researched the topic to death gave it CPR and beat it to death again. I’m so worried that I’m keeping it on life support. I have everything I need to begin my journey but I’m so nervous about starting.

    Would you like for me to be the guinea pig? Just send me your gear and I'll report back. My intentions are your piece of mind.

    Great stuff mj. I just found your thread on the realities of the pro bb world yesterday. I like seeing someone tell it like it really is. I don't compete, never have, but I've been along for the ride while friends went through it. I've seen enough to know you're telling the real story of what it's like.

    Why? You know they can be and are used safely as long as you know what youre doing. I'm not pushing you to do it lol but I don't get the fear since you do know.

    I guess its like the first time you do anything. There's always that fear of the unknown. ?

    I over think everything. I just need stop thinking and do it. Won't my family be happy they already bitch about my working out and being muscular? My parents will probably have heart attacks after I pack on 20lbs. I am already my family’s black sheep. I might as well become the family pariah.

    Really? Fvck me, you truly never cease to amaze me. Did you report Java Man too? And in multiple other threads, multiple other users (many staff, including me) have made joke about people sending us their gear to 'look after' or 'test' for them. Go on, search for them and report us all.

    Did you finish writing your book yet? What was it called again? Oh yeah, 'How to lose friends and alienate people'.

    You know what, if you have no sense sense of humour you are in the wrong place. Too wrapped up in your own arrogance and cockiness, no doubt.
