Wanna know how jacked and shredded influencers tell you they’re on a buttload of steroids without telling you they’re on a buttload of steroids?
- “I’m on TRT.”
- “I tried prohormones once.”
- “I did a cycle or two when I was younger.”
- “It’s just good lighting and a pump.”
- “I look bigger in pictures than I actually am.”
- “You’re underestimating your genetic potential.”
- “I’m still gaining muscle after 20+ years of training.”
- “There are no genetic limits to muscle building.”
- “My dad was a bodybuilder.”
- “An FFMI over 25 isn’t that special.”
- “I’ve never failed a drug test.”
- “My bloodwork is looking great.”
- “This new shampoo made me break out.”
- “I accidentally shaved with an old razor.”
Social media is lousy with these “fake natty” chucklefucks, and in many cases, their covert drug use harms many more people than just themselves.
First, steroid users that have had little experience or results as a natural lifter often give bad advice to naturals because with the right drugs, you can get a lot wrong in the kitchen and gym and still build an outstanding physique.
Many people on gear don’t realize this, though, and unwittingly teach their followers to make major mistakes that hobble their progress and, ironically, can bend them toward using steroids too.
And even if someone on gear gives good diet and training advice and rationalizes that this “noble end” justifies the means, it’s still immoral to lie about PEDs to build a body that wins people’s attention, trust, and business.
Second, many juicers create false expectations in others that lead to feelings of disappointment and failure. We can look great without vitamin S, but no matter how much moxie and #dedication we muster, we’ll never be as big, lean, and strong as our chemically enhanced peers.
So, give a big side-eye to anyone who someway makes money from a physique that somehow always looks stage-ready. Maybe they’re born with it, or maybe it’s . . . something else.
