This will be a web site, based on my 38 + years of training, diet knowledge, and will cover all the aspects of bodybuilding up to the current scene !! I call it right down the middle here, I will not be biased, like other web pages are, and more will follow !!!! I will also tell you the truth here, no BS !!!!!! Like others do. I can tell when people are lying, to me !! Greg Well, here we go. The first post, will cover steroids !!!! The usage of steroids has raised more controversey, then anything. People will admit, they beat their spouse, cheat on their taxes, etc, but when it comes to steroids, boy, oh boy !!! I can't mention anyone names, other then my own !! So therefore, I can only tell you, of the 2 times I used steroids, back in 1976 & 1977. Fact # 1 is that steroids have been around since the 1930's, and have been used in medicine since then. Fact # 2, American bodybuilders, for a FACT have used steroids, since the mid 1950's !! Fact # 3, There have been NO deaths caused by steroids, no matter what "certain people" say or otherwise ! Fact # 4. ALL pro bodybuilders have used steroids, to win, their shows. To quote a champion bodybuilder, "To win a major contest, without steroids, it just can't be done" Fact # 5. There are side effects, as their is no such thing, as a safe drug. There is what is caused a benefit to risk rato. HOWEVER, MOST bodybuilders, combine steroids, with other drugs, causing a synergestic effect. If a person has complications, first, were they healthy to begin with, secondly, what drugs did they take ? How long ? We do not know what a combination of drugs, will do, to anyone. The results can be fatal ! Now, I have suffered NO side effects, but my usage was only 2 cycles. People will often ask me, well so & such took steroids, had a liver tumor, and the steroids, were in the "witches brew" of drugs they took. Did steroids cause that ? I reply, "You got me !!!" God only knows what they took, for how long, as there are so many variables involved. I have noticed a pattern though. That people who have health problems, & have used steroids, stayed on them, with no break. I recall a famous bodybuilder who was on steroids for 10 YEARS ! Once again, just my personal experience & just my personal thoughts, here. Now, should YOU take steroids ? Your morals are your own morals. I know people, who would never touch them, but then who am I to judge ? Also, that is NOT my job, to judge others ! I will let God, be God !!!! I also recomend that you read up, on everything, there is to know. The Internet is a double edged sword, with a lot of nut cases, exponding there own theroies, some of which are so far fetched !! I would read anything by Dr. Charles Yesalis, as he is the current expert on steroids. http://www.personal.psu.edu/faculty/c/e/cey2/ I wish Dan Duchaine was still with us. No, he didn't die from his steroid usage. He died of Polycystic kidney, disease, something which he was born wwith. http://www.qfac.com/advice/dan.html Just remember, this, that what goes on, in the locker room, stays in the locker room ! This is an UNBIASED video from you tube, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0LEj8IPHGU Remember, be UNBIASED, WHEN YOU LOOK AT THINGS, Also, many people think, or actually will fight tooth & nail, that John Grimek & Steve Reeves never used steroids, because of their convaluded logic, of Dianabol came out, in the mid 50's. UTEER NONSENSE !!!!! Read the Sergio Oliva's interview, were he tells it like it is especially steroid usage, by the old timers of the 50's ! You will be rather shocked, but not me, as I knew all along !!! Here's the link, to Sergio's interview. http://muscleandbrawn.com/sergio-oliva-interview/ Posted on 9/1/2010 Greg
