am i? sometimes i think i am. not only do users have to deal with people saying roids give them fake muscles (which they dont) but now we have to worry about trainers actually getting fake muscles. so now its that much harder to prove to someone that i busted my ass to look the way i do. i cant understand synthol and implants. look at ernie taylors tris. if u ever see him do a side tricep, nothing happens. they just stick out, but there are no striations or viens. cause theyre fake. and as much as people hail him as "The Sultan of Symmetry" wheeler is on synthol as well. i saw a photo of him and cormier and coleman comparing side chests. coleman and cormier had huge viens splitting their biceps in half, while wheeler had nothing of the sort. i even saw on the battle for the O 97. wheelers arms look like water ballons. he abuses synthol in his arms, delts, and his calves are implants. he cant flex them. im not trying to get a holier than thou attitiude, im just making a point that if all we want to do is complain that people and mainstream dont understand us we need to clean up some of this. fake muscles? i dont have good tris, so ill jsut get some crap imlpanted in there, or some oil injected in there, but still tell people that i worked hard to get them, and if u work hard, u can too. it makes us all look bad. hard enough to explain to someone that i still have to train hard when im on, but now i have to explain y a guy would inject an oil into his bodypart that would just make it bigger. if thats the case, whoever diets the best and can get the most synthol will look the best. is that what we are heading too? sorry for the rant.

I see your point, BUT if you want to bust on "fake" then what about GH and pgf2 and everything else that makes you bigger without the work. I understand that people can now give the impression that they are the hulk when they're really superman. but what can one do? what SHOULD be done?

NOthing cause that'z just the way it is. it'z not just black and white like Mr. John Q. Pubic thinkz it is. It'z mostly grey.

i agree with u totally, and i shouldve touched up on gh and pgf2. maybe i shouldnt have went on the rant, cause there is nothing that can be done. give man a shortcut and he will take it. but, he will not only take that one but try and find a shorter one, and a shorter one, till there is no need for a shortcut at all, cause there is nowhere else to go. that will be a sad, sad day my friends.

Yeah but give it 10yrs when the oil breaks loose and it all drops to the poor guys feet. Big oily bags of shit for feet?? Can't be worth it.

I agree with you. Synthol has never been tested to see if its carcenognic or not (cancerous). Nobody knows the long term effect of it.
1st--Ernie taylors triceps are not synthol. He uses collagen.
2nd-- In 97 and earlier Flex used to use a drug called Esclene(formebolone) an inflammatory. Would last for 24hrs or so. He has been know to use over 150 ampules per show in every muscle on his body. They no longer make the drug so now he uses synthol.

i never said taylor used synthol, but his tris are fake either way. sad thing is, his body is great anyway but his tris make him look stupid and out of proportion. when platz had those out of this world quads, they didnt make him look dumb; he was admired. taylor looks like an idiot.

I do not agree with synthol either. I have no facts, no degree, no reason to not like it, other than it does not seem right. I have always thought of bodybuilders as people who worked hard for their amazing looks. Not pump-up-toys. I am proud of what I have done to my body, and I still will be after my cycle. I have no shame in using AS to increase my rewards for my hard work. I would not be proud of getting the gains without the work. Just my thoughts. No hard feelings to those who use synthol. Your body, Your choice.
