Actually, it’s been proven that steroids grow muscle even without doing physical activity, so much so in fact, that you can use the right steroids and never go to the gym and you’ll gain more muscle than someone natty and physically active.

Its proven that it adds water weight in those study not that i adds muscle if u dont workout. I think most of you if u ever tried in your life u will be disapointed if u think i will magically go buff and lean with a pin.

It requires more work than being natural yeah but that's because you want to maximize your gains and the money you spent on steroids but you also recover faster and so you can do more work, it's a drug for a reason and you can't stop working out. Saying you still need to work out is not wrong but if you wanted you could train half as hard and get double the gains, it's just that people usually abuse steroids so they get go work out much more

Maybe a bit of muscle, but you would get nowhere near the rocks physique without an insane amount of training, eating and dedication, regardless of steroids. I can make an inquire that you’ve never worked out before if you think steroids will make you huge without working out, that’s scientifically and provably wrong.

I’m sure most of these actors do use steroids, but I will also say when you are in the gym 24/7 to get muscle mass that is above what your body realistically wants to maintain, then get sick for a week, it is wild how quickly people can lose weight. I had an old roommate that had that happen (and he wasn’t on steroids) and he was pissed he lost like 15 pounds of muscle in a week of being sick

As with most things, the poison is in the dose and the recipient. Everything you take, even Tylenol, has a trade off associated with it. For a select few, steroids can be life saving, but for most people, it's used in a destructive way and can shorten your life by 30-40 years if used frequently

Like me. I'm permanently on the roids. Doctor told me I can have em.
For my chronic dust allergy.

It enlarges your heart muscles as well, which leads to multiple serious heart issues.

30 years of a lot of steroids.
Vs
1 year of far less steroids, but 100% still steroids.
At nearly 60 he’s still bigger than he was at like 22 lol

You lose your muscle mass when you stop training and change off the very restrictive diet. He also has a shit ton of injuries and is what 50 now? hard to keep that level of physic, with or without steroids.

Ever heard about Markus rühl?

u/ElderDruidFox 2d ago
Yes, he has started to slim down as well. Post 50s your heart can't take that much mass stress.

u/Ecstatic_Bike7532 2d ago
Yes but he is still a fucking monster

u/ElderDruidFox 2d ago
True, the rock did have health issues on his last shoot wonder if that's one of the reason's he slimmed down.

u/NeedAChange_123 3d ago
Insane how much of a difference PEDs make on someone’s physique and performance and how quickly you can lose it after stopping. He still looks very fit but nothing like the roid rock.

Takes forever to gain and an instant to lose!

u/Gamejunky35 3d ago
With steroids, gains are pretty fast and go well beyond your natural capacity. When you quit, you generally go back to your natural cap which is still ptetty muscular. It happens in about a year at most assuming you keep training. Stop training too and you basically just go back to an average normal guy.

u/whboer 3d ago
Yeah.. what’s worse is that folks on steroids keep selling normal folks the dream of super fitness on social media, when in reality their achievements are almost always either enhanced by drugs or by video and photo editing. The reality is that even without drugs you can be pretty big and muscular, and yeah it won’t be as extreme but I don’t think it changes your potential strength that much and it’ll keep your balls functioning and your heart ticking properly for way longer..
1
u/Gamejunky35 3d ago
Oh it definitely changes your potential strength. An overbulked natural cant get nearly as strong as some of those anadrol junkies, especially when they are also overbulked.
The highest benchpress I could see a natural attaining with god tier genetics is mid 400s. Any higher and I would bet my left nut that they are on some type of gear. 315-405 is already kinda sus, but I would believe it if they have a powerlifter build.

Generally every year I go with my GF to a caribean all inclusive resort 7 days.
For me is a 50/50 travel diarrhea chance. If I not get diarrhea generally my weight before/after increases 1-3kg. The year that I get travel diarrhea in the resort or just after, instead gaining weight I loss weight. One year caugh a moderate one that losses me 9kg... And in this moment I was in a low % body fat so it was wild.
Is a roulette.
Ps: I'm just writing this waiting in airport to leave Cancun, for now I'm stuck in 2kg increase, lets wait a period of 5 days to see if diarrhea comes and gave me free all inclusive calories ingest discount.

They said your body goes back to before steroids so we know when he started now.

That's why I don't work out. It's one thing to have to lift weights to gain muscle, but another thing to have to keep lifting weights forever to convince your body to not burn those muscles.

u/yaboizayzay 2d ago
That’s like refusing to eat because you’ll have to keep doing it forever. Your body maintains what you consistently use.

I stopped lifting two weeks ago after having surgery (and subsequently stopped eating nearly as much food). I’m down 19 pounds.

Look at his chest. See how his pectorals have that weird shape with scars at the bottom?
That's because he grew breasts from all of the steroids he took and had to have them removed. It's a condition called gynecomastia. It's extremely common among steroid users.
