Is it still like this in the bodybuilding world?

Wow, that really hit me hard. Can anyone vouch for this? Is all this true?

Yeah no kidding, I had high hopes to get into that world and after reading this it just sucks all the passion out of the sport....

That is crazy! I can't believe that it could get that bad and not have someone step in and regulate it.

You really cant when the fans dont understand the real severity of the sport....they just want bigger and bigger each year so they are forced to get bigger

Exactly, I've been wanting to be a pro bodybuilder since I was 14. I'm fortunate enough to have pretty good genetics and I have good discipline with diet and training. This is a obviously a huge road bump in my dreams. That's a huge step to take. Winning the Arnold Classic or Mr.Olympia would clearly be a dream come true but I also want a family and a life past 50

This is surprising to you? What did you think it took to get to their size? What did you think it was like? I'm curious.

What bumped my journey was the point of "pumping blood after staging" part....and being in shock a few times a year, thats just not worth it to me especially if you have a family.

yeah that shit freaks me out. And the fact that he said they don't really workout that hard. That's messed up man. I'm sure that's why they all got started in this game, they loved to go to the gym and work till they had nothing left

Its just like anything. When it because your job and your life revolves around it anything gets old.

I realize that. But you don't see pro football/basketball players having to do this. It's just sad. I feel bad for the guys. Wish it wasn't like that
