"I Don't Want to Get Huge"

"I don't want to get huge."

I occasionally see comments like this on bodybuilding/fitness forums.  It kind of amuses me--as if you'll do one set of curls and see a 300 lb monster in the mirror the next morning.

It just doesn't work that way.  The look of modern-day bodybuilders is a combination of rare genetics, hard training, strict nutrition, and anabolic steroids.  It doesn't happen by accident.  Even the "golden era" bodybuilders (like Arnold Schwarzenegger) were a result of these before-mention factors, albeit with lower doses of "pharmaceutical assistance."

Don't fear the weights--you're not going to get "huge" if you don't want to.

PS: Just in case you are wondering, the picture I'm using here has been photoshopped--no one actually looks like that (though I've seen a few that come close).

Work out without any unnatural substances or enhancements and you will build natural muscle and tone, no fear of looking like a Roided mutant.

Dragon,

The issue isn't just steroids, the issue is the DOSAGE used as well. Bodybuilders of the past used lighter cycles.

Hahaha thank you for saying the picture is fake :)

Whatever steroids are anyway they affect one's health. I heard Arnold had problems with his heart now because of them.
