Interested in every ones thoughts n opinions on this. Could be a gd discussion.
I’ve copied the below from another thread to not clog it up with info not relevant to that thread
So ——————————————————
IMO, the reasons bodybuilders are bigger today than they were in the 80s and 90s are 1) Higher AAS dosages, 2) Insulin use, 3) Improved training schedules and workout plans, 4) improved diets, 5) improved supplementation (mostly intra-workout combined with insulin use), 6) High dose GH use[/QUOTE]
Was the post that got me thinking
———————————————————-
Ok he’s a good discussion for you that I don’t generally have even a solid answer based on my opinion.
Bodybuilders now - 2010-2018 are no bigger than 1990-2005 era I would say.
Steroids are arguably easier to get but much much more are UGL which means likely lower quality
Gh n insulin are just as available again tho lots of lower quality GH but one can get both
Training info is the same - people are in 2 camps as always - train more n higher volume - from lee priest n milos etc to Dorian doing low volume early days to heath /bonac/ Rhoden high volume more frequent to de Asher n couple others lower volume
Intra - milos started it - we have guys now that use n don’t use.
So my opinion - there isn’t much they didn’t have around that 1995-2005 era we don’t know
BB no bigger now they just don’t have that polished look.
I go round n round about n answer to this in my own head.
Interested in yours and others thoughts. Im actually going to copy this post n create a thread now.
———————————————————
My thoughts on possibilities
- in general most of that Era trained more frequently and did more actual work in the gym = a different look
Not necessarily more drugs in general but maybe now more ‘fat loss’ drugs are used meaning less cardio n less time in gym
- more artificial shite in supplements n foods etc from pre , Intra n shakes to calorie free sauces n so forth meaning we don’t get rid of as much fat
- more lower quality junk food available - so when we high carb or cheat it’s more trans fats n shite in our food - this is a defo for me. Second prep of this year I ate nothing fried or processed. My waist was smaller n look better.
