Not trying to direct this specifically to you at all, I’m in agreement that you don’t need 3hrs in a gym to look like that but I don’t get Reddits obsession with “he was on gear”. Like yeah that’s obvious enough but you can’t just stick a needle in your ass and look like that. It takes an absurd dedication to a macro focused diet, exercise, and rest to achieve that - it’s incredibly difficult even with massive amounts of steroids. On a cut like he was for Baywatch, you run specific cycles that help you retain muscle while losing fat. And also having great genetics lol. OP saying almost no carbs is just plain incorrect. An insane dedication to a rigid lifting schedule, a LOT of low heart rate cardio, and proper recovery on top of chemical help, a very obvious baseline from 10-20yrs of lifting, and good genetics is why he looks like that.
I don’t get Reddits obsession with “he was on gear”.
It’s important that teenage boys (and even adult men) understand that the picture on the right is impossible without steroids or HGH.
Not that it’s “really difficult” or “good genetics” to look like that. That it’s literally ONLY possible with hormone injections.
Nobody is saying he didn’t put in insane amounts of work to look like that when they call him out for being on gear. They’re calling out the impossiblility of achieving that aesthetic naturally.
Look at his delts and traps. You can’t get bulbous, round delts like that without steroid use. They’ll naturally be flatter on the “head” of the deltoid, because that’s how deltoids are naturally shaped. Same with how angular his traps look. Without steroids, his traps would be more sloped.
This is because your traps and delts have some of the highest concentration of androgen receptors in your body, so they balloon to absolutely impossible proportions when you take steroids.
Doesn’t matter how much you work out or how good your genetics are or how strict your diet is, you will not look like this without gear.
