I have read in numerous sources that Dbol has been used by every Mr Olympia from scott to zane.
Most likely he used less then any other Mr Olympia but nonethless Im fairly confifdent he used some, even if it was only 20 mg dbol a day.

i personally think he's got amazing arm genetics for one thing, but yeah he probably took a little gear. not like it was illegal back then.

He did. Steroids were available in the 50's aswell.

Testosterone was being used in WWII.
alot of the pros of the past used steroids, i dont think people should get so hung up on it as steroids alone didnt get them that physique.
i'm more curious on his training methods than what he took.
its like in serge nubret thread where people are asking him how he got there and by what dosages etc, the members who want to learn from Serge are asking how he trained.

Yes, by his own admission.

I heard rumours Hitler was on steroids. lol True.
Did the pros though back in Scott's time use test? I heard they had it around, but everyone only names dbol, deca, primo.

I think the Nazi's experimented with blood doping to raise the soliders ferocity, but I can't be certain. I definitely wouldn't put it past them, though.
Hitler was terribly ill, all the time. I doubt he would inject some **** into himself like that. Better to inject it into your mindless soldiers.
steroids were born out of war and sickness. their intent was to help with muscle wasting disorders and help injured men heal faster..they were around in the 40's as well.

This is true. I read in Ricky Wayne's book "Muscle Wars" that Scott was by all accounts a user of steroids.
And like Guardian points out -- he did use, but not a whole lot.
Yes, so did reeves and grimek and ****ing batman
we can all quit gripping about it just because there 300 pounds with "huge gh wasit omg" and so much mass its ruining bodybuilding because apparently being large is horrible for a sport inwhich the main emphasis is size doesent mean they did not juice

ALL bb pre 1980 seem to be anti steroid. Arnold says in one of his books "There are many beginner and intermediate bb, who hearing that champions are using steroids, believe that they too can make enormous gains by taking these drugs. But studies done on the effect of steroids do not bear this out".
This is coming from the man who was rumored to have introduced the steroid primobolan into the States.
Given Reeves the chance and all them pros, if they had the drugs we have today they wouldnt think twice about using them. I also heard Reeves injected B-12 in the middle of his workouts. lol
^ lol.
Yes Hitler injected alot of drugs - watched it on the History Channel :p
lol - I heared every guy who went to Mr. Universe was not natural.
Let alone the Mr. O
i remember reeves saying something along the lines of
"if a man cannot build a muscular physique without the aid of steriods he should probably take up table tennis or squash"
lol

I think Reeves should stick his opinions as should every pro who used and now become anti steroids. Arnold the biggest hypocrite of them all, when he started taking them in the bb mags were published about side effects of using them, did he stop? No and now hes a billionaire all because the drugs he used.
Now Im obviously not saying drugs were a big part of bb back then like they are now because they wernt, but if Arnold didn't use he wouldn't be where he was and is now.
i think that you should take notice of what the pro's say to be honest. these guys have more experience of steriod usage than most poeple could dream of. they have seen it all and know of the consequences as they wake up with the effects every day.
respect the oppinion of the pro's. they are just trying to look out for you.
