what did Arnold use?

Well, if Arnold used Dbol - then this proves with the right PCT you can keep the gains!

It actually proves nothing.

Did Arnold use dbol ? Yes. Is that all he used? Certainly not. Do you think if you took exactly what Arnold was taking that you would look like him? I hope not, cause you are mistaken.

NEXT!!!

Arnold used his brains. Made his self money and a small fortune.

I've heard that arnold liked the d-bo/primo combo as well. Don't underestamate these guys, and what they had access to! I don't think they liked test, I think that was more associated with the russians, d-bol was considered (and more popular) with americans at that time. I think it started with the whole York weightlifting club in the late 50's. Anyway, Aas was readily available those bodybuilders, and they used a wide variety im sure. Yes arnold was a cocky mofo, and he had reason to be. He was an inovator, and I look up to him. I don't think it's dumb to speculate about what he took.

Dead on post. Remember Dianabol was developed by USA Medical Doctor John Ziegler specifically to counter Eastern European (communist bloc) threat.

As for how savvy these guys were look at their beautiful physiques. And Mr. S is still the greatest of all time - right up to this second.

**SnaX** · 07-19-2006, 03:07 PM

primo and dianabol

**playboii** · 05-21-2006, 03:10 PM

Arnold is the true green ranger!!

**Sharky72** · 05-22-2006, 02:20 AM

Vitor,I like your style bro. lol

**TheSentinal** · 05-22-2006, 03:58 AM

Arnold was and has been inspriing to me since I was a teen. His work ethic was second to none. He did this all being taller than most BB. I too, am interested in what gear got him to the amazing shape he was in. Why would all of us not be slightly curious to what he used? Just because a question may seem "unworthy" to be asked - by one person, - doesn't mean others would not be interested in it. Am I wrong?

**sonar1234** · 07-13-2006, 10:36 AM

For sure something did happen cause i bought the arnold encyclopedia of bodybuilding and from 18-19 he did something radical cause is body changed and he must have gained real cloase to 60 pounds of muscles.

**auslifta** · 07-19-2006, 01:15 AM

arnold is numero uno!

**Pieru** · 07-19-2006, 01:21 AM

I heard rumour :20weeker with 600-800primo/WK and 70-100mg/ED dianabol .I wouldnt be so suprised if that rumour was true....

**STB** · 07-19-2006, 08:07 AM

I recall in Arnold's Ency of Modern BB, that he refers to possible problems with taking 250mg of Dbol a day...which is an insane dose, most don't take that in a week. Somehow I don't think he was taking 15mg per day of Dbol.

**pdog80** · 07-19-2006, 10:59 AM

20 weeks of primo 600-800mgs/week is reasonable but to stack that with 20 weeks straight of d-bol 70-100mgs/ed is bs. Your liver would melt and you would end up 6 feet under. Also, primo is the shit!!!

Do you think they admid they competitors ecactly what they has taken.Even i have busted guy who was claiming that he was 8weeker with 35mg dbol .Gains were amazing,truth was he was 2g test e ,and 600deca for 12 weeker.How know these things.i may try same day take 80mg for 8weeker/dinabol/day . for excperiend .ANd i swear my liver values would be better than local drunk.My bigest concern would be sleeplesness,high bp and cholesterol,but with medicine theyy can be helped. And image i get from arnold, in that time he was making everything to win.

**k@m NYC** · 07-19-2006, 04:10 PM

I remember watching raw iron the making of pumping iron. arnold was asked about if bb'ers use gear and he answered "...yes they all use it because back in those days the stuff they were using wasnt illegal so they all experimented with it." but he never specified what or how much.. but he did refer to someone popping 1,2, or 3 dbols a day..

I heard that too. Maybe that is the doses he runs but he also claims to run it "year round". It sounds to me like he only runs that small dose in order to maintain what he has achieved previously from his heavier cycles. He also said those were the only "anabolics" he uses soo im guessing that test, gh, igf-1, and slin are no stranger to him now-a-days.

**TommyTrainR** · 07-19-2006, 05:40 PM

Rumor has it he took Cell-Tech everyday

**tcw** · 07-19-2006, 09:11 PM

Here's what i heard from some old timers who trained at Golds in Ca.

It was common knowledge that D-bol was dropped like candy by 100 percent of the competitive BB's back then. They got the shit dirt cheap and a prescription wasn't even needed...must have been nice. I also heard that Deca and Test were used as well.

Arnold made it big because of his incredible dedication to BB and great genitics. He also ate like a Fu~kin horse! He started juice in Europe and continued when he arrived in the USA.

I'm sure that is he had the same information and access to the designer dope available today....he would have won Mr Olympia several more times....

Remember,..he retired from the sport in his late 20's! If he would have put in another 10yrs he would have competited at 270lbs.

**mickdiesel** · 07-19-2006, 09:16 PM

i bet he used primo, var and dbolfor breakfast, lunch and dinner. he also said, according to lou ferrigno, that test was "dirty"

**juicepig** · 07-19-2006, 10:18 PM

some of you guys are being rude towards this question, but i bet every single guy that juiced it have wondered the same thing! every body builder has watched pumping iron, lets get serious!

**juicepig** · 07-19-2006, 10:19 PM

some of you guys are being rude towards this question, but i bet every single guy that juiced it have wondered the same thing! every body builder has watched pumping iron, lets get serious!.. ive heard mixed things sustanon 250or D bols.. but this is just from word of mouth.
