Thread: I'm finally satisfied with my physique

    I'm finally satisfied with my physique

    If your like myself then your always looking for new ways to motivate yourself in the gym. Well, I found the best motivation by far recently. I started looking more at pictures of bodybuilders from the golden era of bodybuilding. Then I started looking at their stats. MOST had arms somewhere around the 18-19" mark contest, with a few such as Ferrigno, Arnold, and Oliva being exceptions. This was before the days of HGH and insulin. So I sat here thinking to myself, I've been at this for 15 yrs now, my arms are about 18 1/2" contest, legs 27", waist 32", chest 50". Maybe this is the point where I've hit about all the size gear and genetics will allow, aside from peptides. I cannot afford peptides and I dont like the sides I get on them, I tried some GH for 4 months but couldn't afford anymore and w/ a family and enough $$ problems as it is $300-$400/month seemed a little ridiculous. So I'm 253 lbs now, off season and a little bloated, at 5'9". I'm finally satisfied, I had 365 on incline bench today and I'm looking around the gym and nobody in that big ass gym was going to come close to that. If you were to walk in that gym and say "who here is the biggest guy or the strongest" it would be myself. What a hell of an accomplishment. But anyways, I'm reading about all of these golden era guys and bodybuilding just sounded fun again. It wasnt this huge arm chair theorizer, scientific thing!! It was simple, the guys used what was simple and what worked!! Some dbol and primo and you were ready to rock. So my new goal is to try and bring as much of that look back as I can. $300 here or there on a simple, effective cycle and I'm good. When I walk into a supplement store before I buy something I say to myself "Did Arnold need this $60 Muscletech?" Because really, aside from a little better conditioning, has the crowd only running anabolics changed that much now than back then? Peptides aside I dont think so
