What did Arnold use

[lowstace]

I always here he used primo and d-bol..is this true..where was the test back then..I was wondering if any vets from socal new what was up

[lowstace]

bump

[tt2323]

I've heard the same... Lou and arnie looked great! does anyone really know?

[hardgainer12]

i heard him say d-bol. thats all i heard. I talked to an ex bodybuilder that is still a monster and he said they used to use there wifes birth control cuz its .25mg of d-bol or somethin. he said they took hundreds of em daily

[Growingpains]

If that is the case, then why how did they get so cut?

I think that test E was just started coming around during that time.

GP

[hardgainer12]

he said it made them bloated and very emotional buts its all they could get.

[lowstace]

yeah man even early larry scott and other socal udes looked 10x better then pros do now IMHO..

[Boricua Pump]

Prolly DBOL and primo.

[hardgainer12]

yeah man even early larry scott and other socal udes looked 10x better then pros do now IMHO..

i agree. They were "pretty" IMO. Now they are huge beasts! arnold looked like he was sculpted. I love his physique

[lowstace]

YEah man arnolds was real cool in the gym to not some anti-social dick like many BB pros..he would help dudes out and shit

[Growingpains]

I started lifting through his Encyclopedia to Bodybuilding! It taught me everything in the beginning.

[hardgainer12]

YEah man arnolds was real cool in the gym to not some anti-social dick like many BB pros..he would help dudes out and shit

ya thats cool. they probly felt like the coolest dude ever cuz he just gave em advice. All around cool dude IMO.

[stupidhippo]

yeah man even early larry scott and other socal udes looked 10x better then pros do now IMHO..

I disagree... I thikn the pros these days look a lot more impressive.... all props to arnold still..

[lowstace]

dude not trying to flame yall but check your eyes bro 50',60's 70's BB is the golden age man the pinnacle of BB

[stupidhippo]

they are not that big... IMO Ronnie etc are way more impressive..

[lowstace]

true but bigger does not mean beter IMHO

[lowstace]

I just think ronnie jay are GH,creatine,insulin freaks man Reg park looks a lot better

[G-Force]

yeah but it is neceassary to be that big in order to win nowadays
whether they look better or not is debateable

i think most would prefer arnolds physique to Ronnie's
but ronnie looks like a freak and i like to see that

[thebison]

freaks are fun to watch.

[j martini]

I just think ronnie jay are GH,creatine,insulin freaks man Reg park looks a lot better

Creatine freaks LOL. I dont think creatine contributed musch to the advancement in physique today.

I prefer the like of dexter jacksons physique to any of the guys back in arnolds day. For me a lot of them had incomplete development, with weak legs and chest and bicepps thah overpowered everything else, that seemed to be the prefered look back then.

dude not trying to flame yall but check your eyes bro 50',60's 70's BB is the golden age man the pinnacle of BB

what an absurd comment. everyones viewpoint is different, his eyes are likely fine. i think the bodies of today are far more impressive and head turning, but, i also think they all look the same. in the arnie era, each bodybuilder looked much different as far as muscle mass, symettry, proportions and conditioning went. there was more variety

[lowstace]

Creatine has been the biggest thing to hit BB in 20 years bro

[MAXIMA5]

Yeah, the new Dodge Chargers and Chev Camaro concept cars are far superior in technology, but you gotta respect the classics.

[lowstace]

Timm check your head and eyes man...ask any one on the street they would pick arnold as having the best body ever

[BigChris]

Anold started using roids at the ripe age of fourteen. Dbol was one of his favourites. Except for using roids on a regular basis he trained like an animal - something you do not see anymore lately. If only he had the resources the 'great' BB's of today have got to their availability.

But he is still in my opinion the greatest single figure ever in bodybuilding - no one can take that away from him no matter what. He made bodybuilding what it is today (well...what it was until freak shows with GH guts started to rule the sport...)

Take some time and go read his Unauthorized biography (by Wendy Leigh) - it will give you a great window as to what he used, what his life was all about and who Arnold really is...

[Swifto]

No one knows what age he started, what he took, for how long, what his PCT protocol looked like and how he stacked AS, but, him. Maybe a few others, Franco possibly.

I think the days before arnold were even better, the days of steve reeves...18.25 arms, and a 52 inch chest, completely natural. I think he was the greatest bodybuilder ever, but I believe arnold has had the greatest impact on bodybuilding. He made bodybuilding what it is and isn't. Arnold's body is so much more appe****g than say ronnie coleman's: what a freak, what a gut. There's no way I'd want to look like ronnie, I'd much rather look like arnold...

[lowstace]

thanks BIG chris.. off topic but is it true betting is legal in pubs in London Ireland

[lowstace]

yeah steve reeves was sick was he the last not to use roids did reg park juice

[Booz]

he started takin drugs when he 1st came to England with Wag Bennet at the age of 17 i think!i know this coz my cousin trained there and became good friends with him!my couzins wife was the 1st picture board babe for the mr universe in brugge that year.

[aadrenaline]

umm bodybuilders dont do steroids

[j martini]

Creatine has been the biggest thing to hit BB in 20 years bro

LOL are you serious? I think the advancement in protein powders and MRP"S has had a much greater effect than creatine, if we are solely talking about natural sups.

Creatine adds a bit of water weight and some strength gains, any gains made on it are false and dissapear after cesation of use. Arnold would not look any different with the addition of creatine.

The improved quality, taste and convenience of protein powders since arnolds day has being dramatic, and would likely have had a positive influence on his physique.

[lowstace]

I dont consider protein a supp..but some do Booz yeah he did get crazy big after he went to the UK

[stayinstacked]

back then the bulk of their steroid usage was deca,primo, dbol, and test, winny didnt even really come into the scene until the late 70's from what I hear. And the dbol back in the day was far better than the dbol nowadays

[lowstace]

thanks stayin stack..you seem in a good mood today ...I am wondering why?

[lowstace]

I am gunna go with a a old school pre-contest cycle soon....I just drink to much beer

[groundandpoundpwr21]

That comment about eating birth control has me rollin. I hope we dont see any i tried eating birth control to look like arnold and only grew tits thread. haha

[BajanBastard]

i heard him say d-bol. thats all i heard. I talked to an ex bodybuilder that is still a monster and he said they used to use there wifes birth control cuz its .25mg of d-bol or somethin. he said they took hundreds of em daily

LMAO!!

[gabriel595]

[stayinstacked]

thanks stayin stack..you seem in a good mood today ...I am wondering why?
