Is there such thing as PROFESSIONAL Natural BodyBuilders? I honestly have no clue and I just want to know. If so, how much money do they make, and is Natural BodyBuilding their entire source of income? I seriously do not know the answers to these questions and if they are stupid and obvious questions, then I am sorry, but could somebody PLEASE inform me on this stuff!?!

<--- I am a 100% natural bodybuilder. I can tell you there isn't a lot money in it so that should not be your motivation to be a natural pro. It's lifestyle dedicated to maintaining a quality physique without using roids."I just use my muscles as a conversation piece, like someone walking a cheetah down 42nd Street." - Arnold Schwarzenegger

there are a lot of natural pros. but it seems nobody knows or cares who they are. number 1 there is next to nothing when it comes to money. number 2 you get ZERO respect. and number 3 when you go around saying your natural you sound like a little bitch. ( dam i gotta change my name ) Natural people either dont have the hook up or they are to afraid to step it up.

The thing that pisses me off about "natty's" is that their always preaching the moral high road, like
"I've given my life and soul into pursuing the greatest physique attainable through natural means, without poisoning or destroying my body, just as God intended it"
You never hear someone say "Yeah, I'm natural, but only because funds are low and I don't have a reliable source"I don't know either lol

Yea its sad they have to do some much self convincing to make themselves feel better. If your natural, its probably for the wrong reasons because there is a great deal of misinformation out there.
if youre going to be natural, do it quietly and dont made it sound like something to be proud of. being natural just means settling for a subpar physique due to some unfounded fears. People that preach natural just come off as ignorant among those in the know.

Natural bodybuilding will never be as popular for a few reaosns. One if they were to increase the prize money, cheating (ei drug use) would increase because when it comes to making money people generaly do whatever they have to do. The 2nd reason (an i dont agree with this) is that most people are very unimpressed with what a natural bb looking when dieted for a show, very lean but not normally thick an freaky. Alot of people feel tha if they are goin to shell out money for tickets an magizines to see these guys they want them display a body that most people could never have. Where i disagree is that most people will never have enough discipline to get themselves to that stage. The worst part about being natural is that u are in a no win situation, if you are big an ripped then u must really be using roids and if u "look like your natural" well then again people are unimpressed.

No one really wants to pay to see guys who look like pencils onstage or whose bodies are a lot easier to obtain. They want to see something that sticks out and is "Freaky." Oddly enough, people think this same reason is hurting Pro bodybuilding now with the mass monsters, but they know they wouldn't really want to see it if no one was taking it to the next level(which is missing in natural bodybuilding)
But you still look good NaturalPump. One of the better natural bodybuilders I have seen. Just need some more mass though.Last edited by Clean; 10-20-2006 at 06:10 PM.

Very true prolly the most important part of aas is to maintain lean mass before a comp. Alot of natural shows look like a swim meet. I have respect for naturals but they face a tough problem
Its semi easy to be big
Semi easy to be cut
Very hard for them to be big and cut

the only reason i dont juice is because of my job. otherwise id be drinking the **** with a straw. its better to compete in non tested shows even if you are natural. why go to a "natty" show when you have to pay the extra fees, when half the guys are cheating. i know a few guys that compete in natural shows. they have the stuff out of their system before the show. anyone with half a brain knows how to pass a lie detector test.
