In every sport, there are competent and sensible trainers and competitors that chose the pursuit of perfection and beauty; but there are many others that their main goal is to become notorious. This notoriety is achieved at the same time they forget the true nature of the sport. I have always thought that first are sportsmen / sportswomen and the others are just only freaks.

Freaks are notorious because they grab the attention of the media and public in general. Nevertheless, they are empty because they don’t contribute with anything valuable or admirable to the society.

Bodybuilding is a valuable sport because the true nature of this lifestyle promotes good nutrition, proper exercise and a good human body perception based on beauty and health. But you can find many freaks in the bodybuilding scene.

According to the dictionary a freak is any abnormal phenomenon or product or unusual object; anomaly; aberration or a person on exhibition as an example of a strange deviation from nature; monster.

Here you have the most obvious example of a bodybuilding freak.

Always ask yourself if you are a bodybuilder or just a “freakbuilder”. The difference is clear; Pursue beauty and health and you will be on the right track.

In a few days Mr. Olympia 2007 will be history. This bodybuilding contest is the perfect example of the amazing human potential concerning muscular development. In this competition you can notice how the human body can be developed to its maximum.

You can admire these professional bodybuilders physiques or you can simply hate them, but this is not important. Mr. Olympia contest is the greatest exponent of the muscular development and low fat levels human bodies can achieve.

Most bodybuilders know that it is the most important bodybuilding contest in the world, but for me it’s much more. It is a reference point of what latest scientific advances, training systems, nutrition, determination and, unfortunately, hormone manipulation can obtain.

Now it’s your turn! No matter if you admire Mr. Olympia physiques or you hate them; no matter if your preferences tend more to thinner, fitness physiques. You MUST make a great decision. You must decide what level of muscular development and fat percentage you want to obtain, and, then, start taking the required steps towards your goal.

Now you limits are very clear:

• Your personal preferences.
• Your genetic background and potential.
• And the maximum level that Mr. Olympia marks every year.

Now you have probably understood why Mr. Olympia contest is so important, but don’t forget that the crucial factor is your decision. Start today and become the next Mr. Olympia or not! You decide.

“Professional bodybuilders attain their level because they find and they use shortcuts like anabolic steroids”

Read my lips; there are not shortcuts in bodybuilding, just the continuous application of a sound and solid system.

“Just a moment, Are you trying to say that anabolic steroids are not shortcuts?”

Well, let me explain my point of view. Anabolic steroids are essential weapons of every bodybuilder whose goal is to reach the professional status. But if your goal is only to gain some muscular mass, get rid of fat and transform your physique to get a healthy strong and athletic look; then anabolic steroids are NOT necessary.

On the other hand, if your goal is to become a professional bodybuilder or, at least, achieve a physique with outstanding muscular mass and ultra ripped look; then the only response is a consistent application of a solid and effective plan. This plan must integrate high intensity training, adequate nutrition, full recovery between training sessions and hormone manipulation with anabolic steroids and other hormone and growth factors. But don’t be confused, these latter factors (hormone manipulative factors) are not the only response, just a crucial part of a whole system.

Now remember this idea; even if you apply the whole system with consistency, you will need time to change your physique and achieve results.

“You can achieve a professional physique without drugs”

This concept, unfortunately, is absolutely wrong. Nowadays in the bodybuilding arena 100% of the professional competitors are taking drugs. Period! This statement may sound politically incorrect, but the plain truth is usually harsh and crude.

Most bodybuilding fans can reason that there are many bodybuilders using the same drugs and anabolic steroids, in huge quantities and these bodybuilders will never get the pro level. Therefore they state that drugs are not the answer. Well, let me re-examine the situation from another point of view to give you the right picture. 100% of professional bodybuilders use anabolic steroids, but only a minimum part of all the anabolic steroid users will become professional bodybuilders.

To achieve a professional level in bodybuilding you will need anabolic steroids but 3 other factors are also crucial to reach the goal.

1. Posses a privileged genetic background with a good structure, outstanding strength level and huge capacity to easily gain muscular mass. Those fortunate to have this genetic dowry are in better position to reach their goals.
   
2. Effective and solid plan to start the race in pursuit of professional bodybuilding physique level. You need a perfect plan to combine proper use of anabolic steroids, nutrition, high intensity training and adequate recovery to achieve muscle growth.
   
3. And finally, the ingredient or factor that everybody forget: TIME. Remember that it is very rare to find one top professional bodybuilder below 30’s

“Nutritional supplements can be as powerful as drugs”

Oh, My Gosh! This is probably the biggest fallacy you can find amongst hundreds of different advertisements in bodybuilding magazines. Here you have some examples picked from the last issues of well known bodybuilding magazines:

• Next generation in anabolic supplementation…
• Made from compounds that have the same molecular structure of testosterone…
• Nobody boost testosterone more than we do…
• This is hardcore; the most powerful stimulant ever…
• As close molecularly to anabolic steroids as we seen in a legal product…
• Raise your testosterone up to 154% with your first dose…

Notice the same manipulation pattern? They try to convince us that nutritional supplements work like drugs. The whole concept is completely nonsense. Consider the following idea: FDA approves any nutritional supplement because they have tested the products as innocuous. These products receive the label of nutritional supplements. Drugs, on the other hand, receive their specific label that complies with drugs regulations and requirements.

I’ll always remember when Dan Duchaine (the first and only true steroid guru) stated some years ago:

“Anabolic steroids are drugs and nutritional supplements are just food”

This is the epitome, the quintessence of bodybuilding common sense. This simple phrase ends with numerous false myths, fallacies and half truths so common in the nutritional supplement industry. Always remember the wisdom of Dan Duchaine!

PS. I must admit that food by itself has not the same effects of the drugs, but I also admit that food causes an hormonal response in the human body. But this hormone response is very limited and absolutely not comparable with the effects exerted by drugs.
