It looks like steroids is the only way to the top in this sport.

Bodybuilding is an endeavor that requires the men and women involved to follow a strict regimen that consists of hard weight training, a bare bones diet plan, and extreme dedication and will power. In order to achieve your greatest physique you must be pushing yourself to the absolute limit. You’re muscles should feel like they’ve been destroyed by the end of your workout, the true indicator that gains are being made. However, for those who compete on the pro stage there’s a question that constantly arises: does steroid truly make the difference between your average bodybuilder and the best professionals in the world?

While many have their own thoughts, concerns, and considerations, the fact that steroids is a part of the sport that will always exist is unarguably true. Whether a bodybuilder admits their steroid use or not, many fans will come to their own opinions on whether or not a pro is utilizing steroids to get their position. Even if a bodybuilder were to use steroids it doesn’t change the fact that a ton of hard work and dieting will still be the main source of producing a top flight competitor.

For Platz educated the masses on how the anabolic substance is utilized has been a mission of his for years. Many fans and aspiring bodybuilders have had ambitions about becoming professionals and as such have utilized steroids incorrectly over the years. Tom Platz wanted to educated aspiring bodybuilders so much that he ventured to make an educational video featuring some of the top bodybuilders in the world at the time. Take a look at the video below as some of the best bodybuilders in history break down their steroid usage and program.
