Fair enough, but it’s also important to note that 15-30% of gym goers are using them. If you don’t look like the top guy at the gym, there might be a reason, and you might be among the fittest clean gainers there.
It’s also unfair to compare oneself with professional athletes, models, etc. Yet people strive for those beauty standards simply because they have to assume, other people expect them to look like that.
"I’m gonna break it down for you, because it’s actually quite simple, and anybody can do this. Anybody on the planet can do this. First thing’s first: if you have job—like a 9-5 job—quit that. Do you like food? Forget about that. Because you’re never going to enjoy anything you eat. Alcohol? Sorry. That’s out. So what you need to do—you have a chef, right? like a personal chef?—make sure the chef makes you a lot of chicken breast. And make sure you keep your caloric intake at a certain level. And as you go to your physician 2-3 times a week—just to monitor all your testosterone levels—because testosterone is important to building muscle. You’re good friends with the trainer from Magic Mike? So you want to give Arin a call. And you want to make sure he’s at your house and takes you to the gym at least twice a day, because you’re gonna want to do your muscle-building in the morning and then your cardio in the afternoon. Now, do you have a family? Like a significant other or kids? Yeah, forget about them. You’re not going to have time to deal with them. So that’s really all you have to do. And make sure you have a studio pay for the entire thing, because it could become exceptionally expensive. So, I think if you just do all those things, then you too can have an absolutely unrealistic body type, such as me.”
That super ripped dude at the gym is on steroids too, so it’s unfair to compare oneself to him.
True, but it’s also good to not get carried away with assuming people are on steroids.
If they have actual indicators of steroid usage then fair enough, but otherwise it could just be years of consistent hard work and good genetics.
Usually you just need to look at the traps to tell tho 🤣
