how much gear was arnie on ?

[Mr I]

Does anyone have any url's/threads to support how much gear he took and what sort, did he use nolvadex, or anything to harden up in them days or was it just dianabol all year round?

Also I heard he started when 13 yrs old?

Have not looked into it that much but he did not start when he was 13. . .if you know anything about austrian culture and how they raise their kids it is highly doubtful that a 13 yr old especially back then would have anything to do with gear. . .also, people like to make it look like others did stuff sooner, did more, etc. . .so that they can say "well, he was huge and I'm not but that is because he did/does blah blah blah. . ." I get it all the time from guys I went to high school with.
most likely he did not take dbol up to the show but switched to stuff like primo and winstrol. . .no aromatization.
Not sure on the nolva but I would doubt that they did much if any anti-e's. . .maybe towards the end of his career.
There are some people that are of the opinion that they did take more than they say they did but people that are in the field of bodybuilding know that most guys totally lie about what they take anyway. ..just like tom platz used to take girl dosages. .but now there are people that say they have talked to him and that he took up to 1700 mg of mixed orals and injectables per week.. .hardly girl dosages.

Agreed, people do bullshit about what they have had, I took; anapolon, parabolon and dynabolon at 15yrs old, grew loads but knew soon after it was a mistake.

If your into training at what ever age, and you read articles, your gonna consider gear.

and unless your on it full stop I don't think think it makes a difference when you started when judging someone in their twenties or older.

I was married to a man back in the early 80's who went on to win the nationals & turn pro, placing very high in the O in the late 80's.

I was young & dumb, so I don't remember doses and such., but I do remember that his injections were not very frequent, maybe 2x week & orals. Anti-e's. Forget that! it was not something I knew any of the guy's taking. I wish I remembered the dodses, but they wer LOW!

I doubt we'll ever know the truth. Arnie has nothing to gain by revealing his exact cycles, so why would he?

i agree, i doubt we will ever know exactly what or how much he used

[GreekTank]

I heard alot of DECA and PRIMO also DBOL

[Golgo13]

He used the same things we all take.

Arnold looked like Arnold because he had great genetics and he busted his ass.

[murdyO]

I would bet that back then they used modest dosage and genetics and hard work made them who they are. These freakz now adays just are monsterz. I like the arnold and menzer look myself. They was a bit closer to looking like a human being. Ronnie Coleman is just a monster. Bodybuilding has came a long way since arnold.IMO



thanx

You know what, " who gives a crap". Doesn't matter what he took. Doesn't have anything to do with you. So if the hero took it hows that affect me?

[psyko1]

Ease up there lare. . .this is a discussion board and to be honest after some of the lame ass questions that people post after not looking at all for the answer, sometimes it is nice to have a little chat about what some old timers used to do or just have a nice jaw . . not everything has to be serious:)

Sounds like you're going to be a problem child, you're already 11 posts in and you're busting an attitude. If you don't like the discussion then LEAVE! show some respect for us elders on the board. Mr Incredible is a bro of mine!
