Naturally Massive Free Tip 4 – Steroids vs Natural Training
To get bigger, stronger muscle, natural bodybuilders need to train and eat differently from steroid using bodybuilders. Sebastian MacLean explains in his video and text based natural muscle building tips at www.naturallymassive.com
Actually a really good video my friend, you weren’t biased and rude about people who use pharmaceuticals. Good job man!
I disagree with you. The training is only different, because of how your body reacts. If a power lifter uses steroids, why would they use higher reps? I’d think they’d use more weight.
It’s your goals and how your body reacts to the stimulus. You need to lift and figure that out on your own.
In reference to your own words, “The training is only different, because of how your body reacts.” That is essentially my point. Natural bodybuilders are not going to get the same reaction to high rep training as a steroid user. Going for the pump can work toward assisting with muscle growth for a steroid user, but it won’t work so well for a guy that is clean. Clean guys must use heavier weight to force growth. Power lifting on steroids is a different issue, as the goal is power, not growth.
Steroids provide a ready made anabolic environment. However, they also increase the risk of ligament and tendon damage, since the muscle can strengthen faster than the connective tissue. This makes sets that involve reps as high as 10 to 15 a safer bet, without slowing growth and ensuring less injury. A steroid charged anabolic environment responds to high rep training and still produce a muscle growth result. Natural training depends on both low and high reps for growth and cell volumization.
Bodybuilding is a livestyle.
I saw some Steroid People and i can say Steroids destroy your Mind too .
steroids areee bad , but theyre good if ya know how to use them , to much of anything izzz bad!!
how do you prevent yourself from building any muscle mass? because ive had about a 6-7% body fat through the past 3.5 years of highschool, i did 3 years of crew, 2 of cross country and im starting a year of wresteling, so what exactly should i be eating, because all of the magazines tend to “overwhelm” me with all of these different opinions so i just go with what i see best, i eat allot of sugary and salty substances do too my low body fat percentage, is that the right idea? please respond, ty
OK I get high number of reps of moderate wieght for steroid users. Low number of reps (6-8?) and high weight for natural. Makes sense-do you know any good websites out there for the natural bodybuilder or a good book training program?
You need to understand how to promote muscle hypertrophy, this statement shows you don’t, whether natural or chemicaly enhanced, judging by your look in the videos i assume you aren’t talking from experience either.
LATS60, are you addressing this video or something from Polaphuca?
I’m not saying high weight only for natural guys. What I’m suggesting is that you ned both high and low. In contrast a steroid user needs to be cautious about heavy lifting for the sake their ligament tissues. Steroid users also tend to do better with exclusively high rep training than natural guys.
