actually around where i live, west TN area, the opposite is true. Theres this one dude, who looks AWESOME from a bodybuilder perspective. Hes about 5’8 200, but was actually drycut because he had a contest the previous day. Anyways this guy was at the pool at the country club that i work at. This group of girls i was sitting around were talking about how he looked big and were saying oh i bet hes strong, blah blah, not once was steroids mentioned or even suggested.
Even in the gym i lift at, there are a few obvious guys, but its really a small nit group of guys who use and stuff
It’s pretty common in Northern NJ, especially among the “guidos”. I’m not talking about just Italians, Jersey guidos come in all nationalities. More than a few people in my gym talk about using it and some of the guys I used to hang out with took starting when they were 17 or 18. I could tell when a couple of friends were on or off a cycle because their size would fluctuate significantly between cycles. I personally don’t give a shit who takes what and it’s really not a big deal around here.
I went to college originally in Missouri for several years. I know for a fact that the majority of gym rats in my college gym were using. Why? My lifting partner was the juice dealer on campus. At one time in the pit I counted 20 guys, 16 of them were using juice that I knew of. Roids were rampant at my school.
The thing is though that the guys who were using and huge were
A. big before juice
B. trained hard before juice
C. would have gotten great results without juice, but got even better results with
The thing about some of the other guys using juice were
A. they didn’t know how to train
B. they didn’t know how to eat
C. juice really didn’t make much of a difference while they were on, much less a couple months after PCT
Guys that are going to train hard, eat right are going to get results with juice or without. Guys that cant train simply wont get results. And that’s the bottom line.
Someone who is huge and uses juice still busts ass in the gym. If you think juice is the difference between you and results then you need to reevaluate your dedication and training. Focus on your results, not others.
I’ve never once heard a complaint from someone who is natural and absolutely busts ass 24/7 in the gym about juicers. The ones who bitch and complain are the ones who shy away from the squat rack, heavy deads, and strict dieting. This is a fact.
