A Steroid Free Bodybuilder You Can Trust – Eugen Sandow

March 3, 2017 By johnbarban

Here is a good comparison picture of Eugen Sandow vs Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Eugen Sandow vs Arnold Schwarzenegger - Gold Standard Bodybuilders before and after steroids were discovered

Eugen Sandow is known as the first real bodybuilder and gained international fame for doing the first bodybuilding style poses for crowds of people. The interesting thing is that he died 10 years before testosterone was discovered… so you know he could have never used steroids.

Eugen Sandow vs Arnold Schwarzenegger

During his time Sandow was considered one of the biggest and best built men in the world, he was the gold standard for bodybuilding before testosterone was discovered. As soon as testosterone was discovered and steroids were being dosed in people Arnold became the new gold standard. I’m sure the sheer size of Arnold vs Sandow just goes to show you how much of a difference drugs can make.

Basically these pictures show you what the gold standard for a muscular body was before and after the discovery of steroids.

Eugen Sandow was the real deal and a body size that can be attained without steroids…on the other hand here are some examples of the type of size that can only be built using steroids: Steroid Muscle

Weight Loss Fallacies: 2lbs per week and 1200 calories per day

I received an email the other day that sums up how popular diet/fitness misinformation can leave people frustrated, upset, angry and eventually to flat out give up on the idea of getting in shape. So the email went something like this: “I just read your book and it says my RMR is approx 1250 calories. […]

Steroid Muscle vs Natural Muscle

So I guess the general theme this week is “hormones”. So the next topic that we’re going to cover was sent in by Jason and this is about steroid muscle vs natural muscle.

This word gets thrown around the fitness and diet media and is used to scare people into thinking there is a dangerous level of calories that will destroy their metabolism. This of […]

Using Growth Hormone For Fat Loss

Growth Hormone is a commonly abused drug in the bodybuilding culture. Although it’s name might make you think it is primarily responsible for muscle growth, it is actually used to help with recovery and above all, fat burning. In order to burn fat your body needs to have high growth hormone levels and low insulin levels. […]

How To Gain 1 Pound of FAT!

This past weekend was thanksgiving for us folks up in Canada. (I have no idea why we have a different date for this…actually, I don’t even know why we celebrate it…but whatever.) Anyway, needless to say there was lots of food and I ate a lot of food. And then I got to thinking. How […]

What Does “Healthy” Look Like?

I met up with a friend for my morning coffee today and we got onto the topic of body image (go figure) and we ended up talking about what a healthy body looks like. This is when I realized that we all have a built in image in our heads of what we think a […]
