Here is what I recommend
It seems that you know the answer and are just patronizing us. Why dont you do this and step on stage at the USAs? Better yet, start training folks to become olympia winners! I want you to show us the reason!!! SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!! hhahaahaha just teasin u Marshmello. I need to pick on U once a day to build my self esteem from my horrible washed up life. I also know that you seem like a pretty nice guy and we would get along in person. We like to tease each other but I can see your passion and I really do enjoy what you bring to this site.

We all agree that genetics are what seperates the cream from the milk, no arguments from anyone. AlmostPro made a great post about that.
I (we) are talking about how did the genetic elite from today as compared to the genetic elite from 25 years ago gain 20-40 pounds of pure stage weight.
How did a genetic freak like 5 '8" Mike Mentzer go from the 210's, on stage, to the Gustavo Badell's pushing 250 @ 5'8. How did Coleman go from 250 - 300 lean, is he doing anything different than Bob Paris @ 225?
Nutrition? I don't know, other than quality protein powder making it more convenient to get in your optimal nutrients, food and what grows muscle hasn't changed, no groundbreaking knowledge there.
Training? No
Evolution? No
Supplements? Well, the argument is that alot more guys than are believed are doing very conservative dosages, I have no problem believing that, however this same thought process would also apply to 1989, 1984 and 1979.
So we have a 5'8" Mentzer and a 5'8" Badell, both eating properly, training properly, doing ballpark area dosages (just to be fair). How does Badell have him outweighed by 25-40 pounds?
How does a 6ft Coleman outweigh a 6ft Paris by 70 pounds. Hard to imagine having better genetics for the sport than Bob Paris (pillow biting aside).
3 major things have changed supplement wise: igf, insulin and synthetic gh.
Are these products what is making the difference and allowing these guys to still use conservative amounts of AAS, but add the extra 20-50 pounds of mass that their genetic counterparts from 25 years ago couldn't add?
