He didn't put that all on in 1 year. If it was 3 years and at his age and the time he has to give to it he could easily have done it fully natural. Maybe he had some stuff maybe he didn't but it's achievable naturally over 3 years for sure

The End
I agree with you. Today people rather hate than congratulate your results cause when i was in my best shape i looked nothing like MBJ just muscular with a flat stomach no abs and i got family asking what im on. Working out is my hobby not a job so no i wouldn’t take that shyt but if i had a movie career or something making money tied to my appearance then yea maybe but you still have to put in the work.

It hurts peoples insecurity when you tell them they can do it too cause it shatters all of their pre planned excuses for their laziness

:russ:
i come from a fat ass family and my dad was always in great shape. Old school build. minimal definition, maximum size.

And all the fat nikkas in my family would say shyt like “when you gone get off that stuff man :troll:” on some funny shyt

he used to tell them the same time you could tie your shoes without getting tired :laff:

anybody who’s been fit fr knows that fat and out of shape people always got something to say about the fit folks.

nun about MBJ build especially in creed 1 is abnormal

Even with roids you still need to train and eat right.


Roids help in recovery.

So anyone on roids can do the work.
Plus they monetary investment as well.

So people investing and purchasing recovery.
Usually do the work but it has a caveat.
That if not for resources and recovery. The person will not do the work.


Ronnie coleman is the only natty historically before roids. Who should have won the olympia before being on gear.
The rest of them are all powder.
All actors are on gear.
That most never even saw the arnold fitness tape.
To see what arnold looked like off roids to begin with.

All fitness is a lie.
Go watch the natty vs roid video to see for yourself.

all this diet this.
macro that
shyt a lie.

it is all coded information for people on gear.
it is not real.

Question: why do people care whether *actors* use steroids/HGH/etc.?

I mean, it's impressive if they can achieve the look they're going for naturally, but I really DGAF if they're using 'roids. As long as they do it safely and don't overdo it. At the end of the day, it's really all about the aesthetics.

It's not like acting requires athletic ability or physical fitness to compete. Steven Seagal been playing a flabby "badass" for most of his career. :mjlol:

Maybe he used PEDs , don't know
But in these analyses, people always under estimate the impact of having FULL TIME STAFF supporting you in these transformations
Everybody reading this now would make significant natty gains in 1 year time if they had a full time chef making a diverse meal plan that curbed the need for cheat days, snacking, etc. A personal trainer, a physical therapist, massage team, assistants, etc. In my mid 20s I was built like MBJ in the 2014 pic, I did a extended dirty bulk basically using creatine and doing starting strength and I gained like 30lbs in a year and half. Not all muscle but it's def possible to transform your body in short time periods

1 went from 140 to 170 my first year of lifting. I had no trainers, no chefs, and worked a full time job. I had people asking me if I was taking roids. I didn't even really gain any weight the first month and a half because I wasn't eating enough calories. There was a lot of trial and error and I hurt my shoulder going up in weight too fast benching. Had to take it easy on push days for two months but still put on size. Had to buy all new clothes because nothing fit anymore.

If I could change my body on my own and still look pretty good I would've been in incredible shape with access to professional help and no juicing.

I don't think MBJ needed roids for Creed 1. Maybe his later roles he had help but I don't think his initial physique was impossible to obtain. Other actors are definitely juicing. Majors pretty much admitted he had help in the video he did with Larry Wheels. Majors was in great shape before he bigger though.

they always say “broccoli” and chicken
:russ:

wtf is broccoli gonna help do for you in such a case

I was never fat, but when I gained some weight on my stomach in my early 20s all I did was simplify the South Beach diet, two eggs and turkey bacon for breakfast, salad for lunch, and chicken breasts and broccoli...and did nothing but push ups and sit ups, and I lost weight hella fast and was kinda ripped

so somebody with professional nutritionist who works out every day as a job is probably going to look like Michael B Jordan

not every ripped Black man is on steroids

he's paid MILLIONS of dollars to stay in shape, yall saying yall wouldn't eat right and exercise for millions of dollars

some of yall either lying or naive

All this shyt is


Everytime. This nikka didn’t do shyt magical but work out for damn near 2 years.

nikkas talking about “natural muscle” and his weight but hardly step in the gym themselves and never had a job where working out was a part of your paycheck.

Did he cheat, who knows. There isn’t any proof that said otherwise. But 1-2lbs a month for 18 months is not impossible if you know what you are doing…

Then, there is the cutting part specifically for the movie. They cut up like boxers actually do too, for those shirtless scenes

And if you're bulking/cutting cycles with around 6k clean calories a day then something is going to change on you. Your appearance will change drastically.

nikkas never done it though so it must be impossible. The fastest you even put on muscle is in the beginning, but dudes don’t know that either.

Breh.

You sound fukking stupid.

MBJ is an ACTOR not a COMPETITOR.

This means in Hollywood he is allowed to take roids without any sort scrutiny.

No actor is being refused a role because “we found out you were using roids” you just need to look the part or make assurances that you will get the physique.

Couldn't we also ask "he's paid millions of dollars to get in shape for creed 1, which began filming in January19th, 2015. Would you hop on a stack for a career changing opportunity?"

What's the easier bet, gaining 20+ lbs and staying chiseled natty or hopping on a stack.

People dont care but the subtext of these types of convos is what can the avg person do naturally.

The younger guys are starting to have the same body dysmorphia women have....
social media has their minds fukked up

Steroid use amongst young guys is rising...steroid usage is rising because they cant tell whats real and whats fake

It's truly frightening. Social media may prove to be a net negative for humanity.
