General Gym Observations - Page 698 - Health and Fitness Forum

How common is it juicing amongst non pro athlete men/women? If I see someone at the gym who looks like they might be roiding (someone very big but not a hehastobeonroids level physique), how likely is it they're on the juice?

very. and you would be surprised at the amount of people who don't look like juicers who are on.

guy comes back because he forgot a strap. Workers ask if he was using the weights.
he says yes and just walks away.

no 1 in this damn gym puts there weights back. Its crazy/annoying

Deadlifting and leaving the bar on the floor loaded with weights is the nut low. Much more of a hassle to unload than on a rack (and usually a lot more weight too). Especially if it's so much weight that most people can't get it onto a rack to unload.

Hope to run into him again, although I went to the gym much earlier than usual due to NYE. This was a breath of fresh air from all the quatter squatters usually hogging the cage.

Congrats you officially just won GGO, time to shut this thread down.

If a dude has that body whats the probability they do steroids? There's a few guys at my gym who wear those stupid tanks that are cut nearly to the bottom that are similarly cut/jacked, but I guess I never put 2 and 2 together and thought about steroids.

If white, 95% chance on the juice. If black, 30% chance on the juice. If Asian, 100% chance on the juice.

I'm sure Russians and other non asian Eastern Europeans are naturally stronger than docile socialist hellhole free health care pussified western men pee-sitting-down eurotards. (B/c they have to fight bears and the mafia)

i think you guys are way off by aasuming everyone is on the juice. im not far of 190 and also with my skinny jean am fairly cut.

there is one gym in my town where most guys are at it so maybe you need move gyms if you dont want to be around it.

i think Tate or Wendler or Jon Meadows or some white guy said something like this:
Assuming average height (between 5'9 and 6'0). If significantly over 200lbs bdyweight and still ripped (single digit bf), probably something going on chemically. Adjust for manlet heights and giants.

Guy in rudikulous' photo is just shopped+well lit photoshoot, unlikely roids.

Those body frame calculators all put me at 245 give or take at 10% bf as my genetic potential. Don't know if that's innacurate if you go too far from average values, or if that's going to take 8 years or whatever, but from what I know that's a legitimate possibility.
