Just the right aas or do we need to exercise

[nekronom]

I went abroad for a week. To long without a gym. In the middle of the city center I found a big gym, looking promising to me. Hugh cardio section I could see from outside. Therefore I just paid the entry and thought they will have a free weight section with everything…
..shit! no squat, no power rack, only some benches and the biggest barbells where 60 pounds. a section with the usual machines. I did some leg workout as good as I could manage.
But then, this three local guys hanging around the barbells and doing curls, they all looked better then Arnold looked in his Mister time. Very dry and very defined, great lats and arms like beasts. Obviously they where “on”.
But they build these bodies with that poor equipment? If yes (I suppose they do not pay another gym) then it is enough to throw in the right stuff and to hang around some iron?

no offense bro, better build than arnold in his hay day, hmmmmmmm..........

Why do you say it's "poor equipment", because they didn't have the power rack or the machines/equipment was old? There could many reasons why they lift there.. Some people i know have two-three memberships to different gyms, they get in for free since they know the owner/co-owner/manager/employe.

[Jimmykick]

maybe you joined a gay gym

 

[Micromegas]

I think you probably need glasses.

 

[Jimmykick]

LOL
yeah maybe they weren't that arnoldesque after all

As long as there was at least 1 barbell and some plates they could get huge easily.

 

[Thoms]

They could easily be training at home also.

 

[DocJ]

Also keep in mind that if you were in Europe, they're obsessed with conditioning. I went to a gym in Italy and everyone there was ripped but weighed about 170lbs. I was 3-4% higher bodyfat than all of them but weighed 250lbs. I was a walking oddity to them. Most had never even heard of a "bulking" cycle

 

[fullypaully]

^^^^ l hate guys like that it looks so gay l rather be fat and massive then skinny and ripped

 

[Trevdog]

To answer your question, YES you do need to train, not just shoot the right steroids. Come on man.

and a perve on the local poser fitness chicks i head down to "fitness first"
(designer gym crudhole)................my last visit was the funniest yet
a young guy i no whose been training for about a year and often asked my advice (and promptly ignored it) was there complete with female personal trainer doing incline press on a smith machine all of about 80lbs and not even going to failure meanwhile trainer is going "thats it thats it one more rep"
"great work" (hes been there for half an hour and not even broken a sweat)
